+New option @code{-dinclude-settings=INCLUDEFILE.ly}, which causes lilypond
+to include the given file before the score is processed. This allows the
+user to change global settings without the need to change the score itself.
+That way, several different editions/version (e.g. different page sizes)
+can be generated from a file without having to modify the score for each 
+version.

+The autobeaming settings syntax has been changed.  beatLength,
+beatGrouping, beamSettings, and measureGrouping have all been eliminated.
+Autobeaming is now controlled by baseMoment, beatStructure, and
+beamExceptions.  Default settings for each of these properties can be
+stored for any time signature in time-signature-settings, so that
+when the time signature is changed, the autobeaming will automatically
+change.  The new syntax should be much easier and require fewer
+overrides.

+The documented syntax of @samp{lilypond} environments in the @LaTeX{}

+The previous syntax with options after @samp{\begin} is still accepted
