+New Features For Users:
+
+A new Cashflow Barchart report from Jose Marino
+
+    Transaction Report improvements, including regular expression filtering,
+    from Chrostopher Lam.
+
+    The About dialog box layout is improved.
+
+    GnuCash will always build the locale-specific tax modules. This

+    en_US and de_DE.
+
+The following bugs are fixed only in unstable/master:
+
+    Bug 789298 - Prompt for file history update leads to crash during startup.
+
+Other repairs not marked as bugs in git:
+
+    GnuCash no longer crashes on startup on Windows.
+
+    GnuCash no longer crashes when loading price data.
+
+    The Options Dialogs will appear over the application window
+    instead of wherever Gdk decides is coordinates 0, 0 on the
+    display.
+
+    Owners were not correctly linked to invoices in the SQL backend.
+
+    Building from a tarball with python enabled now works.
+
+    Fix Reconcile dialog always showing a 0 ending balance.
+
+    Fix the book being always marked dirty at startup if it contained
+    any scheduled transactions.
+
+KNOWN PROBLEMS:
+
+    On Microsoft Windows starting the AQBanking Setup Wizard crashes GnuCash.
+
+    test-import-bayes built with autotools intermittently fails at
+    line 381, where the returned value is 1 instead of the expected 6.
