@@ -14,6 +14,7 @@ All notable changes to this project will be documented in this file.
 ### Removed
 - Superfluous OpenMP 4.5 map(to:) clauses on kernel target regions.
 - Kokkos namespace not used by default so the API is easier to spot.
+- Manual specification of Kokkos layout (DEVICE) as the Kokkos library sets this by default.
 
 ### Fixed
 - Kokkos now compiles and links separately to fix complication with Kokkos 2.05.00.
