+* Introduced Vala bindings for libnm.
+* NetworkManager would now keep most connections up on shutdown (except Wi-Fi
+ connections, VPN connections and other kinds that can't be assumed on
+ startup)
+* The checkpoint/restore connection can now also remove new connections and
+ disconnect devices that were activated since the checkpoint was taken.
+* The configuration is now read from /run/NetworkManager/conf.d as well.
+ This is useful for handing over configuration discovered on system
+ startup to NetworkManager.
+* New connection.autoconnect_retries property that allows fine-tuning
+ the autoconnect behavior.
+* Support for configuration and discovery of Web Proxy settings with
+ PacRunner service.
+* Support for systemd-resolved local DNS forwarder backend.
* Fix emission of NM-style PropertiesChanged signals and deprecate them

* Change the meaning of unset "cloned-mac-address" settings from "permanent" to
