+
+Other repairs or enhancements not marked as bugs:
+     Set up filepath utils to determine the GNC_CONFIG_HOME in the same way
+          as GNC_DATA_HOME
+          Until now GNC_CONFIG_HOME was more or less hard-coded. Now it can be
+          set via environment variable GNC_CONFIG_HOME. In addition it will
+          automatically be created to avoid potential user confusion.
+     Redesign gnc-uri-utils
+          gnc_uri_get_components will now return NULL as protocol if the input
+               is a normal file system path instead of a uri (it used to
+               return 'file')
+          gnc_uri_get_protocol will now return NULL if the input is a normal
+               file system path instead of a uri (it used to return 'file')
+          gnc_uri_is_file_protocol now returns FALSE if protocol is NULL
+               (it used to return TRUE)
+           gnc_uri_is_file_uri now returns FALSE if input is a normal file
+                system path instead of a uri (it used to return TRUE)
+           a new function gnc_uri_targets_local_fs will return TRUE only if
+                its input is either a file uri or a normal file system path.
+                This function is now mostly used instead of
+                gnc_uri_is_file_uri in the current code base
+           a new function gnc_uri_is_uri is added to check whether its input
+                is a valid uri (has protocol, path and hostname for non-file
+                uris)
+           refer to 'scheme' instead of 'protocol' as that's the more formal
+               term used in uris
+               This involves renaming 3 functions:
+                    gnc_uri_get_protocol -> gnc_uri_get_scheme
+                    gnc_uri_is_known_protocol -> gnc_uri_is_known_scheme
+                    gnc_uri_is_file_protocol -> gnc_uri_is_file_scheme
+               The *_protocol variants are marked as deprecated.
+               Additionally a number of local variables have been renamed from
+               protocol to scheme to support this change.
+     Show warnings for deprecated declarations
+          We're about to announce our own set of deprecated functions in
+          libgnucash. That would be pretty pointless if we also would silence
+          all deprecation warnings at the same time...
+     More report code-cleanup by Chris Lam, including deprecating the
+           following functions:
+               gnc:account-get-balance-at-date
+               gnc:account-get-total-flow
+               gnc-commodity-numeric-string
+               gnc-commodity-value->string
+               gnc:double-col
+               gnc:options-add-include-subaccounts
+               gnc:options-add-group-accounts
+               gnc:options-add-currency-selection
+            The following modules are deprecated:
+               report-system/collectors
+               report-system/report-collectors
+     Invoice: Remove H1 title and superflous option.
+           Printing the title twice is silly, so remove the option and the
+           H1 display of the title. Note that the remaining title is in a
+           div named "invoice-title" so it can be styled with CSS as the user
+           pleases from the Report Options Layout tab.
+     The preference, use formal accounting labels does not update the header
+          With a register open and you change preference 'use formal
+          accounting labels' it does not update the register header so add
+         a call back for the preference.
+
+     Make the grid lines of totals Budget tree view track the preferences
+          Make the grid lines of the totals tree view track the preferences
+          to match the account tree view above it.
+     Add routine to fix Account Color being set to "Not Set"
+          Previously the account color slot has been populated with
+          "Not Set" when any field for the account has been edited and
+          saved. This routine should run once and remove all such entries.
+     Performance fix in dom_chars_handler: use g_strndup instead of g_strdup
+     In the appdata/metadata file, rename the ID from org.gnucash.Gnucash
+          to org.gnucash.GnuCash to match flathub, and add a launchable ID
+          to link it to the desktop file.
+     Added double-click-on-file for the CSV transaction, price, and account
+         importers and exporters.
+     Cleaned up a variety of issues reported by the clang static analyzer.
+     Allow the text options widget to use all remaining space
+          The text option widget used for report options has only about 3
+          lines visible currently and will not use any available space in
+          the dialogue. Change the packing for this widget to expand and
+          fill the remaining dialogue space. If there are more than one text
+          option widget on a page then the available space will be shared
+          equally.
+     Add short_labels for a few toolbar buttons with long names. That should
+          fit a few more buttons on the toolbar.
+     Update iso-4217-currencies.xml, adddding VES - Bolivar Soberano, minor
+          updates of other VE currencies.
+     Python 3 bindings fixes and improvements from Christoph Holterman and
+          Sumit Bhardwaj.
