 === Configuration changes in 1.26 ===
+* $wgPasswordResetRoutes['email'] = true by default.
 * $wgEnableParserCache was deprecated, set $wgParserCacheType to CACHE_NONE
   instead if you want to disable the parser cache.
 * New-style continuation is now the default for API action=continue. Clients may
   use the 'rawcontinue' parameter to receive raw query-continue data, but the
   new style is encouraged as it's harder to implement incorrectly.
 * Deprecated API formats dump and wddx have been completely removed.
+* (T7645) The "Signature" button on the edit toolbar is now hidden by default
+  in non-talk namespaces. A new configuration variable,
+  $wgExtraSignatureNamespaces, controls in which subject (non-talk) namespaces
+  the "Signature" button on the edit toolbar will be displayed.
+* $wgResourceLoaderUseESI was deprecated and removed. This was an experimental
+  feature that was never enabled by default.
