 ### Fixed
 ### Removed
 
+## 2024-05-27: v0.5.0-rc.2
+
+### Changed
+- Remove unnecessary use of `&mut self` in the app and admin clients. These used to be needed when the internal `send` mutated
+  state, but it no longer does that so we can drop the requirement for the clients to be mutable.
+
 ## 2024-05-22: v0.5.0-rc.1
 ### Changed
 - Backport Conductor API serialization fix.
