 ## 5. File and Namespace Organization
 
+- **Always use file-scoped namespaces** (`namespace YourProject.Foo.Bar;`) — the entire codebase has been refactored to file-scoped namespaces. Never use block-scoped namespaces.
 - Place test files in the appropriate test project and folder structure.
 - Use namespaces that mirror the source code structure. The namespace of a test file MUST match the namespace of the System Under Test (SUT). Do NOT append ".Tests", ".Benchmarks" or similar suffixes to the namespace. Only the assembly/project name should indicate that the file is a test/benchmark (for example: YourProject.Foo.Tests assembly, but namespace YourProject.Foo).
     - Example: If the SUT class is declared as:
         ```csharp
-        namespace YourProject.Foo.Bar
-        {
-                public class Zoo { /* ... */ }
-        }
+        namespace YourProject.Foo.Bar;
+
+        public class Zoo { /* ... */ }
         ```
         then the corresponding unit test class must use the exact same namespace:
         ```csharp
-        namespace YourProject.Foo.Bar
-        {
-                public class ZooTest : Test { /* ... */ }
-        }

+
+This is a patch release focused on codebase modernization, enhanced testing coverage, and developer workflow improvements.
+
+### Changed
+
+- Refactored entire codebase across all three assemblies to use file-scoped namespaces for consistency with modern C# style conventions,
+- Updated developer instructions in `.github/copilot-instructions.md` and `AGENTS.md` to mandate file-scoped namespaces throughout the project,
+- Upgraded NGINX base image in documentation build Dockerfile to version 1.31.0-alpine for improved security and stability,
+- Normalized whitespace and line endings across dependency configuration and package metadata files for consistency.
+
+### Added
+
+- Comprehensive unit tests for ASP.NET Core hosting fixtures including BlockingManagedWebHostFixture, SelfManagedWebHostFixture, SelfManagedWebMinimalHostFixture, HostBuilderApplicationExtensions, and FakeHttpResponseFeature to ensure robust hosting infrastructure,
+- Unit test coverage for HTTP response feature mocking and request/response handling.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Updated package README examples to reflect current API usage patterns with ManagedHostFixture and correct service provider access,
+- Corrected GitHub repository references in package documentation to point to the codebeltnet organization namespace.
