   1 Things to add to the release notes for the next full release:

   4 NEW FEATURES
   5 ------------
   6
   7 - builds use OpenSSL if available.
   8 - post now defaults to port 587 on 'smtp' message submission.
   9 - A value of 0 for the width switch of scan(1), inc(1), ap(1), dp(1),
  10   fmttest(1), and mhl(1) now means as many characters as the format
  11   engine can produce [Bug #15274].  That amount is limited by internal
  12   buffers.
  13 - If a component has trailing whitespace, e.g., body:component="> ",
  14   mhl now trims that whitespace off when filtering blank text lines.

  39 - The format scanner no longer subtracts 1 from the width.  This has the

  41   scan(1), inc(1), and the other programs that rely on the format scanner.
