More Information

  • For a list of known issues please check the issues list on GitHub.

  • We try to avoid backwards incompatible changes, but sometimes it is not avoidable. When we are aware of compatibility issues, then we recommend to check the documentation in the above changelog. When changes turn out to break things for some specific configurations after we have tagged a new release, the issues list is the right place to report it, so that we can add a hint in the changelog for the subsequent release.
