+A new flexible template suitable for a range of choral music, is now
+provided. This may be used to create simple choral music, with or
+without piano accompaniment, in two or four staves. Unlike other
+templates, this template is @q{built-in}, which means it does not
+need to be copied and edited: instead it is simply @code{\include}'d
+in the input file. For details, see @rlearning{Built-in templates}.
+
+@item
+The positioning of tuplet numbers for kneed beams has been significantly
+improved. Previously, tuplet numbers were placed according to the
+position of the tuplet bracket, even if it was not printed. This could
+lead to stranded tuplet numbers. Now they are now positioned
+closer to the kneed-beam when an appropriate beam segment exists for its
+placement and when the the bracket is not drawn.
+
+Collision detection is also added, offsetting horizontally if too close
+to an adjoining note column but preserving the number's vertical
+distance from the kneed beam. If the number itself is too large to
+fit in the available space the original, bracket-based, positioning
+system is used instead; and in the event of a collision (e.g. with an
+accidental) the tuplet number is moved vertically away instead.

+@code{\lyricsto} and @code{\addLyrics} have been @q{harmonized}. Both
+now accept the same kind of delimited argument list that @code{\lyrics}
+and @code{\chords} accept. Backward compatibility has been added so
+music identifiers (i.e. @code{\mus}) are permitted as arguments. A
+@code{convert-ly} rule has been added that removes redundant uses of
+@code{\lyricmode} and rearranges combinations with context starters such
+that @code{\lyricsto} in general is applied last (i.e. like
+@code{\lyricmode} would be).
+
+@item
+Scheme functions and identifiers can now be used as output definitions.
+
+@item
+Scheme expressions can now be used as chord constituents.
+
+@item
+Improved visual spacing of small and regular @q{MI} Funk and Walker
+noteheads so they are now the same width as other shaped notes in
+their respective sets. @code{SOL} noteheads are also now visually
+improved when used with both the normal Aiken and Sacred Harp heads, as
+well as with the thin variants.
+
+@item
+@code{LeftEdge} now has a definable @code{Y-extent} (i.e.vertical). See
+@rinternals{LeftEdge}.
+
+@item
+Added a new @code{make-path-stencil} function that supports all
+@code{path} commands both relative and absolute:
+
+@code{lineto}, @code{rlineto}, @code{curveto}, @code{rcurveto},
+@code{moveto}, @code{rmoveto}, @code{closepath}. The function also
+supports @q{single-letter} syntax used in standard SVG path commands:
+
+@code{L}, @code{l}, @code{C}, @code{c}, @code{M}, @code{m}, @code{Z} and
+@code{z}. The new command is also backward-compatible with the original
+@code{make-connected-path-stencil} function. Also see

+Improved MIDI output for breathe marks. After tied notes, breaths take
+time @emph{only} from the last note of the tie; e.g.
+@code{@{ c4~ c8 \breathe @}} performs as @code{@{ c4~ c16 r @}} instead
+of @code{@{ c4 r8 @}}. This is more consistent with articulations and
+how humans interpret breaths after ties. It now also makes it easier to
+align simultaneous breathe marks over multiple parts, all with different
+note lengths.

+@code{TabNoteHead.style = #'slash}.

+Isolated durations in music sequences now stand for unpitched
+notes. This may be useful for specifying rhythms to music or
+scheme functions. When encountered in the final score, the
+pitches are provided by the preceding note or chord. Here are two

+Beaming exceptions can now be constructed using the

+@lilypond[verbatim,quote,relative=1]

+\repeat unfold 6 { c32 } |
+@end lilypond
+
+@noindent
+with multiple exceptions separated with @code{|} bar checks
+(writing the exception pattern without pitches is convenient but
+not mandatory). Previously, setting the beam exceptions would
+have required writing
+
+@example
+\set Timing.beamExceptions =
+#'( ;start of alist
+ (end . ;entry for end of beams
+ ( ;start of alist of end points
+ ((1 . 32) . (2 2 2)) ;rule for 1/32 beams -- end each 1/16
+ )))
+@end example
+
+@item
+The most common articulations are now reflected in MIDI output.
+Accent and marcato make notes louder; staccato, staccatissimo and
+portato make them shorter. Breath marks shorten the previous
+note.
+
+This behavior is customizable through the @code{midiLength} and
+@code{midiExtraVelocity} properties on @code{ArticulationEvent}.
+See @file{script-init.ly} for examples.
+
+@item
+The PostScript functionality of stroke adjustment is no longer
+applied automatically but left to the discretion of the PostScript
+device (by default, Ghostscript uses it for resolutions up to
+150dpi when generating raster images). When it is enabled, a more
+complex drawing algorithm designed to benefit from stroke
+adjustment is employed mostly for stems and bar lines.
+
+Stroke adjustment can be forced by specifying the command line
+option @samp{-dstrokeadjust} to LilyPond. When generating
+@code{PDF} files, this will usually result in markedly better
+looking @code{PDF} previews but significantly larger file size.
+Print quality at high resolutions will be unaffected.
