+### Breaking
+
+- In module `Ouroboros.Consensus.Node.GSM`, `GSMView` now has a monadic `getCandidateOverSelection :: STM m (selection -> chainSyncState -> CandidateVersusSelection)` instead of the previous pure `candidateOverSelection`. This is due to the fact that chain comparisons now depend on the set of Peras certificates (if Peras is enabled).

+### Breaking
+
+- Make the `ChainDB` aware of the `PerasCertDB`, and modify the chain selection function accordingly. In practice, it means that the candidate fragment is now selected based on its Peras weight, instead of its length.
+
+  Note that if Peras is disabled (which is the default), there is no observable difference.
+
+- Add module `Ouroboros.Consensus.Peras.SelectView`, which introduces a `WeightedSelectView` to correctly measure the length of a chain fragment.
