+* The prefix for subsections in labels and references has been changed from
+  "sub:" to "subsec:" in order to avoid a clash with subfloats (conflicting
+  \subref command, see bug #7550). Files are automatically converted to the new
+  scheme. Please assure that you adapt external refstyle or prettyref definitions
+  and your own layout files.

+* Support for printing from within LyX (File> Print) has been removed. LyX's
+  printing support was very limited, and most users will want to print after
+  reviewing an output document (e.g., a PDF), anyway, which can be done from the
+  PDF viewer.
+  Users who would like to restore this functionality can create a
+  "printer" format from within LyX and then define, say, a
+  pdf->printer converter that does nothing but call lpd, or a2ps, or
+  whatever. The "printer" will then be available as an export option.
