I wrote up a guide for the ATF change, maybe we can link it? NuGet/Samples#53

In particular I want to:

  • Get the samples PR reviewed and merged.
  • Add a comment linking that here.

Do you think we should add this to the notable changes list?

Do we want to add a Known issues section or something like that?

Maybe we have a better that mentions that this issue has consequences.

Open to ideas.

This one is basically, you might have some weirdness, but there's no proposed changes right now.

See More Information, what we have right now, might work better for that.

Feel free to tweak if you think it's necessary
