+@code{\setEasyHeads} has been renamed to @code{\easyHeadsOn}, and a new
+command @code{\easyHeadsOff} reverts note heads to normal heads.
+
+@item
+@code{\fatText} and @code{\emptyText} have been renamed to
+@code{\textLengthOn} and @code{\textLengthOff}, respectively.
+
+@item
+Underlining is now possible with the @code{\underline} markup command.
+
+@item
+It is now possible to specify, using the @code{page-count} variable in
+the paper block, the number of pages that will be used.
+
+@item
+A new page breaking function, @code{ly:minimal-breaking}, is dedicated
+to books with many pages or a lot of texts.
+
+@item
+A table of contents is included using @code{\markuplines \table-of-contents}.
+Elements are added to it using the @code{\tocItem} command.
+
+@item
+Text spreading over several pages is entered using the
+@code{\markuplines} keyword. Builtin markup list commands, such as
+@code{\justified-lines} or @code{\wordwrap-lines} may be used, and new
+ones created using the @code{define-markup-list-command} Scheme macro.
+
+@item
+Particular points of a book may be marked with the @code{\label}
+command. Then, the page where these points are placed can be refered to
+using the @code{\page-ref} markup command.
+
+@item
+Page breaking and page turning commands (@code{\pageBreak},
+@code{\noPageBreak}, etc) can be used at top-level, between scores and
+top-level markups.
+
+@item
+The following options are now changed as a @code{-d} sub-option:
+@code{--backend}, @code{--safe}, @code{--preview} and
+@code{--no-pages} (which became @code{-dno-print-pages}). The @code{-b}
+option does not exist any more.
+
+@item
+Improved testing procedure now catch changes in CPU and memory
+performance, page layout, MIDI results and warnings. This helps to
+reduce the number of regression errors during development, resulting
+in more stable releases.
+
+See @uref{INSTALL.html#testing} for more information.
+@item
+Nested properties, such as @code{details} in @code{Slur}, can be
+reverted as well. The syntax for this is
+
+@example
+\revert Slur #'(details closeness-factor)
+@end example
+
+@item
+All line spanners are more flexible now in the configuration of
+their end points. This includes glissando, voice followers, text
+crescendos and other text spanners. The old syntax for setting
+text on line spanners is no longer valid.
+
+@c with ragged-right we can't see the gliss.

+@item All @code{\score}s in a lilypond-book fragment are now inserted
+into the document. Also, toplevel markups don't result in an entire
+page.

+@item Alterations (such as a sharp and flat) may now be arbitrary
+fractions. This allows some forms of microtonal music. For example,
+Turkish makam music uses 1/9th tone alterations.
