This file is here to allow devs to easily add stuff in the release notes for the next release, it allows easy syncing with the release team, since you don't have to be around when the release takes place... Just dump whatever you want to have mentioned in the release notes here. Please take care that it is in a way that allows copy&paste to the release notes. That is making sure that spelling/grammar/whatever is usable and that you are using complete sentences, not just single words. The release team should empty this file after each release. *** This release is the first 1.6 release candidate, meaning that no further compatibility-breaking changes are expected. We invite all content-providers, Wesnoth-related external sites, and any other concerned parties to test compatibility with this release. We also encourage players to playtest this release heavily. Now is the time to report all the bugs that are obvious to you but which we may not have noticed. *** There are quite some changes on the GUI front and things should start to stabilise now. If you see bugs which should be fixed before 1.6 please report them in the bug tracker. The message dialog got overhauled with some new images. These are placeholders. They will be polished prior to releasing 1.6. ***
