+                 characters was activated.
 
     Windows:
     * Support very long build commands.
     * Add a preference for choosing between GTK and native File Open/Save
       dialogs (only available on Windows).
 
+    Internationalisation:

       "geany-startup-complete".
     * Add PLUGIN_SET_TRANSLATABLE_INFO macro to the plugin API so plugins' meta
       information can be translated already in the plugin manager dialog
       (patch by Colomban Wendling).
-    * Add editor_insert_text_block().
+    * Use full function name for GeanyFunctions function pointers. This
+      avoids naming conflicts e.g. with C++'s 'new' keyword.
+    * GeanyKeyBinding label fields can now contain underscores, which won't
+      be displayed by Geany. This saves adding near-duplicate translation
+      strings.
+    * Add GeanyKeyGroup callback support.
+    * Add more Scintilla function wrappers, foreach_dir(), foreach_str(),
+      utils_get_file_list_full(), document_get_notebook_page(),
+      editor_insert_text_block().
+    * Don't install unnecessary headers.
+    * Remove deprecated header pluginmacros.h - use geanyfunctions.h
+      instead.
+    * Deprecate documents_foreach(), use foreach_document() instead.
+    * Deprecate PLUGIN_KEY_GROUP() macro - use plugin_set_key_group()
+      instead.
