 *** Command `bibtex-url' now allows multiple URLs per entry.

+** Tramp
+
+*** New connection methods.
+The new methods "plinkx", "plink2", "psftp", "sftp" and "fish" have
+been introduced.  There are also new so-called gateway methods
+"tunnel" and "socks".
+
+*** Multihop syntax has been removed.
+The pseudo-method "multi" has been removed.  Instead of, multi hops
+can be specified by the new variable `tramp-default-proxies-alist'.
+
+*** More default settings.
+Default values can be set via the variables `tramp-default-user',
+`tramp-default-user-alist' and `tramp-default-host'.
+
+*** Connection information is cached.
+In order to reduce connection setup, information about used
+connections are kept persistent in a file.  The name of this file is
+defined in the variable `tramp-persistency-file-name'.
+
+*** Control of remote processes.
+Running processes on a remote host can be controlled by settings in
+`tramp-remote-path' and `tramp-remote-process-environment'.
+
+*** Success of remote copy is checked.
+When the variable `file-precious-flag' is set, the success of a remote
+file copy is checked via the file's checksum.
+
+** comint-mode uses `start-file-process' now (see Lisp Changes).
+If `default-directory' is a remote file name, subprocesses are started
+on the corresponding remote system.
