-New sections with different spacing parameters can be started with
-@code{newSpacingSection}. This is useful when there are
-sections with a different notions of long and short notes.
-
-In the following example, the time signature change introduces a new
-section, and hence the 16ths notes are spaced wider.

-A new, automated testing technique has been added. It will detect
-changes in the formatting automatically, which will make it easier to
-spot regression errors in the future.
-
-View @uref{../../test-results.html,test results}.

-@item
-Figured bass can also be added to @code{Staff} contexts directly. In
-this case, their vertical position is adjusted automatically.

-Beams may be put on isolated stems, and beamlets may be paired by
-setting the @code{max-beam-connect} property,

-Beaming patterns obey the @code{beatGrouping} property.

- \time 5/16
- \set beatGrouping = #'(2 3)

-With the command @code{\transposedCueDuring} a cue's transposition can
-be changed locally. This can be used to prevent excessive ledger
-lines on cues.
-This feature was contributed by Werner Lemberg
+@item Tablature now supports harmonics and slides,
-@item
-By setting @code{hairpinToBarline}, hairpins will stop at
-the barline preceding the ending note.

+@item Horizontal spacing now follows object outlines more
+accurately. This allows tighter horizontal spacing.
-@item
-Hairpins now support circled tips (al niente notation).

-The MusicXML convertor has been sped up, and has rudimentary support
-for percussion notation. It will also condense multi-bar rests to
-enable part extraction.
+@item Objects that belong outside of the staff are
+now positioned automatically to avoid collisions.
-@item
-The beam printing code has been completely rewritten, and now includes
-support for feathered beaming,
-
-@lilypond[ragged-right,fragment,relative=2]
-\featherDurations #(ly:make-moment 5 4)
-{
- \override Beam #'grow-direction = #LEFT
- c16[
- c c c
- c c c ]
-}
-@end lilypond

-Known bug: the \featherDuration command only works with very short music
-snippets.

+@item Staves are spaced vertically using a skyline algorithm. This helps to avoid
+uneven vertical spacing.
-@item
-The @code{\note} markup command now also accepts note head styles.
