-### Fix
-
-* fix(dock): added hasattr to cleanup method for widgets ([`d75c55b`](https://gitlab.psi.ch/bec/bec_widgets/-/commit/d75c55b2b1ccf156fb789c7813f1c5bdf256f860))
-
-* fix: add missing close() call, ensure jupyter console client.shutdown() is called in closeEvent ([`e52ee26`](https://gitlab.psi.ch/bec/bec_widgets/-/commit/e52ee2604cb35096f1bd833ca9516d8a34197d35))
-
-### Refactor
-
-* refactor: BECWidget is a mixin based on BECConnector, for each QWidget in BEC
-
-Handles closeEvent() and RPC registering/unregistering ([`c7feb69`](https://gitlab.psi.ch/bec/bec_widgets/-/commit/c7feb6952d590b569f7b0cba3b019a9af0ce0c93))
