+## loopback-datasource-juggler was moved from peerDependencies to dependencies
+
+Originally, we (ab)used peer dependencies to ensure there is only one instance
+of loopback-datasource-juggler in the dependency tree, so that there is only
+one singleton instance of model registry. This was very fragile and might not
+have worked in certain edge cases.
+
+We have reworked loopback-datasource-juggler and connectors to not rely on
+a single juggler instance anymore. As the last step, juggler became a regular
+dependency.
+
+https://github.com/strongloop/loopback/issues/275
+
+When upgrading application from previous loopback versions, simply remove
+loopback-datasource-juggler from your dependencies.
