+### Changed
+- Explorer **Findings are newest first.** Severity tiers stay (Act now,
+  Serious, Worth a look, Minor), but inside each tier the kind of finding
+  seen most recently comes first, and inside a kind the latest occurrence
+  is shown first. Findings with no timestamp (configuration, file content)
+  follow the dated ones.
