+	    An error in how comments are colored in the test suite
+	    overview html log file has been corrected. As result, a
+	    new framework callback function, format_comment/1, has
+	    been introduced.</p>

+	    Test Server did not release SASL TTY handlers
+	    (sasl_report_tty_h and error_logger_tty_h) properly after
+	    each test run. This error has been fixed.</p>

+	    Automatically generated init- and end-configuration

+	    A bug has been fixed that made Test Server call the
+	    end_tc/3 framework function with an incorrect module name
+	    as first argument.</p>

+	    If end_per_testcase caused a timetrap timeout, the actual
+	    test case status was discarded and the test case logged
+	    as successful (even if the case had actually failed
+	    before the call to end_per_testcase). This fault has been
+	    fixed.</p>

+	    If a timetrap timeout occured during execution of of a
+	    function in a lib module (i.e. a function called directly
+	    or indirectly from a test case), the Suite argument in
+	    the end_tc/3 framework callback function would not
+	    correctly contain the name of the test suite, but the lib
+	    module. (This would only happen if the lib module was
+	    compiled with ct.hrl included). This error has been
+	    solved.</p>

+	    Add a proplist() type</p>
+          <p>
+	    Recently I was adding specs to an API and found that
+	    there is no canonical proplist() type defined. (Thanks to
+	    Ryan Zezeski)</p>

+	    If a test suite would start with a test case group
+	    defined without the init_per_group/2 and end_per_group/2
+	    function, init_per_suite/1 would not execute initially
+	    and logging of the test run would fail. This error has
+	    been fixed.</p>

+	    A new option, 'logopts', has been introduced, to make it
+	    possible to modify some aspects of the logging behaviour
+	    in Common Test (or Test Server). For example, whenever an
+	    io printout is made, test_server adds newline (\n) to the
+	    end of the output string. This may not always be a
+	    preferred action and can therefore be disabled by means
+	    of "ct_run ... -logopts no_nl" (or ct:run_test([...,
+	    {logopts,[no_nl]}])). A new framework callback function,
+	    get_logopts/0, has been introduced (see the ct_framework
+	    module for details).</p>

+	    A new option, 'logopts', has been introduced, to make it
+	    possible to modify some aspects of the logging behaviour
+	    in Common Test (or Test Server). For example, if the html
+	    version of the test suite source code should not be
+	    generated during the test run (and consequently be
+	    unavailable in the log file system), the feature may be
+	    disabled by means of "ct_run ... -logopts no_src" (or
+	    ct:run_test([..., {logopts,[no_src]}])). A new framework
+	    callback function, get_logopts/0, has been introduced
+	    (see the ct_framework module for details).</p>

+	    It is now possible to use a tuple {M,F,A}, or a fun, as
+	    timetrap specification in the suite info function or test
+	    case info functions. The function must return a valid
+	    timeout value, as documented in the common_test man page
+	    and in the User's Guide.</p>
