         * DbTimestamp will now round the retrieved value according to Dialect.TimestampResolutionInTicks.
         * When an object typed property is mapped to a NHibernate timestamp, setting an invalid object in the
           property will now throw at flush instead of replacing it with DateTime.Now.
+        * Decimal type registration now correctly handles maximal precision. For most dialects, it is 28, matching
+          the .Net limit. Values in mappings above maximal precision will be reduced to maximal precision.
+        * Default cast types do no more resolve string to 255 length and decimal to its default precision/scale for
+          the dialect. They resolve to 4000 length string and (28, 10) precision/scale decimals by default, and are
+          trimmed down according to dialect. Those defaults can be overridden with query.default_cast_length,
+          query.default_cast_precision and query.default_cast_scale settings.
         * Transaction scopes handling has undergone a major rework. See NH-4011 for full details.
           ** More transaction promotion to distributed may occur if you use the "flush on commit" feature with
              transaction scopes. Explicitly flush your session instead. Ensure it does not occur by disabling
