> The page also mentions several "Source code" links in the Assets from

> A nicely formatted version of the release notes is available there too.

> One change that is more interesting to package maintainers is that
> with this release the version numbering scheme has been changed and
> thus every new feature release will increment the second version
> number (i.e. 1.2.0, 1.3.0, etc.) and the third number (i.e. 1.1.2,
> 1.1.3, etc.) will be left for bugfix releases. Previously feature
> releases used the third version number (i.e. 1.0.30, 1.0.31, etc.) and
> real bugfix releases were not possible. With this possibility present
> more frequent bugfix releases can be expected.
> 
> There has been no 1.1.0 release. It was unpublished due to version
> numbering bug in tests that only showed itself after the release was
> made.
