== Core ==
* Example configurations are **no longer installed** by default.
The default setting for *INSTALL_CONFIG* has changed. Distributions
are strongly encouraged to write their own configuration files and
not rely on the example configuration files. Example configurations
may change unpredictably.
* It is now possible to express module dependencies through the
*requiredModules* key in `module.desc`. All of the required modules
for a given module must occur in the sequence **before** the module
requiring them. None of the core modules use this facility.
* The search paths for QML files, branding descriptors and module
descriptors have been revamped and now self-document in the log.
* A new `ci/RELEASE.sh` script has been added to streamline releases;
it is not guaranteed to work anywhere in particular though.
== Modules ==
* When multiple modules are mutually exclusive, or don't make sense
to enable concurrectly, a new `USE_<foo>` framework has been added
to CMake to simplify the selection of modules. This is in addition
to the existing `SKIP_MODULES` mechanism.
* Various off-by-one-sector errors in the automatic partitioning
mode have been corrected. In addition, swap space is calculated
a little more conservatively.

* A new module has been added to the core which can configure openrc
services. To make services configuration consistent:
- The *services* module has been **renamed** *services-systemd*,
- The openrc module is named *services-openrc*,
- At CMake time, it is possible to select all of the services modules,
or one specific one, by setting the *USE_services* CMake variable.
By default, all of the modules are built and installed.
* The systemd-services module can now disable targets and mask both
targets and services (which will allow you to break the system with
a bad configuration). The configuration is a little more flexible
because a service (or target) name can be used on its own with
sensible defaults.
* The displaymanager module has been entirely revamped. A long-standing
bug which ignored the settings for default desktop has been fixed
(thanks to Walter Lapchynski). Translations have been added to the
error messages. Each DM now has an implementation class for doing
all the configuration steps it needs. This groups the code needed for
a specific DM (and presumably, per-distro) in one place.
Distro's are **strongly advised** to re-test their DM configuration
and installation with the revamped code.
