+* Alt-Escape can be used to 'float' and redock widgets like the table of contents
+ or source view.
+
+* Edit > Paste operation now preserves newlines in text by default.

+
+!!Documents compilation process and images conversion
+
+* LyX now uses utf8 encoding per default for all languages. This does
+ not affect existing documents. Note that LyX also does not touch
+ personal defaults and templates. That is to say, if you still see
+ traditional encoding preset for new documents, you can change that
+ by selecting "Unicode (utf8) [default]" and hitting "Save as
+ Documents Defaults" afterwards. Your personal templates need to be
+ changed manually if desired.
+
+* LyX defaults to the "HE8" LaTeX font encoding with Hebrew if the
+ "Culmus" LaTeX fonts are installed.
+
+* Documents that use TeX fonts can only be compiled with XeTeX if the input
+ encoding is set to "utf8-plain" or "ascii".
+
+* With LyXHTML output, there are now different CSS classes generated for
+ different depths: enumi, enumii, enumiii, and enumiv, and similarly for
+ itemize: lyxitemi, etc. There is also a new HTMLClass tag, which makes it
+ easier to provide specific classes for paragraphs.
+
+* HTML support has been updated to output XHTML5 files. A major change is the
+ use of XML entities instead of HTML ones (e.g., LyX now outputs -
+ instead of ").
+
+* DocBook support has been revamped and now targets DocBook 5 (i.e.
+ only XML, SGML is gone). Some supporting files for the previous
+ implementation have been removed: all examples (lib/examples),
+ some layouts (existing documents should still work, but with a
+ DocBook 5 output instead of DocBook 4 SGML). The dependency on
+ sgmltools has been removed, this new support is always enabled.
+ Having sgmltools installed or not will not change anything in LyX.
+
+* Postscript -> PDF convertor (ps2pdf) uses -dALLOWPSTRANSPARENCY by
+ default now (implemented since ghostscript 9.53.3, see bug #12303).
+
+* There is a widespread ban on postscript conversions across different
+ linux distributions and there are currently two way how to address
+ various image conversion errors when typesetting your documents:
+ - either manually remove the bans of EPS/PDF coders in ImageMagick
+ policy.xml configuration file
+ - or install alternative converters for bitmap <-> postscript.
+ In particular pdftoppm (poppler-utils) and tiff2ps (libtiff-tools)
+ are now recognized and activated in case LyX detects ImageMagick
+ policy ban. These will allow eps<->png(jpg) conversion chain to
+ be found when processing your documents.
+ Package maintainers of distributions (e.g. openSUSE or Debian derivates)
+ where ghostscript conversions of ImageMagick are banned can simply
+ add dependencies for poppler-utils and libtiff-tools to workaround
+ the problem.
+
+* LyX now supports hebrew and hungarian quotation styles.
