* Marking edits as bot edits with Special:Contributions?bot=1 now requires the
markbotedit permission, rather than the rollback permission previously used.
This permission is assigned by default to the sysop group.
+* MediaWiki now checks if serialized files are out of date. New configuration
+ variable $wgCheckSerialized can be set to false to enable old behavior (i.e.
+ to not check and assume they are always up to date)
+* The rollback permission is now assigned by default to all logged-in users. It
+ can also now be rate-limited using the normal mechanism.
+* New configuration variable $wgExtraLanguageNames
