 ### Added
 
 * Add helper function for executing futures `test::block_fn()`
 
 ### Changed
 
+* Extractor configuration could be registered with `App::data()`
+  or with `Resource::data()` #775
+
+* Route data is unified with app data, `Route::data()` moved to resource
+  level to `Resource::data()`
+
 * CORS handling without headers #702
 
 * Allow to construct `Data` instances to avoid double `Arc` for `Send + Sync` types.
