+ This update fixes the problem with generic printouts in
+ the html log file not having special characters escaped.
+ Printouts made with <c>io:format/2</c> and
+ <c>ct:pal/2</c> will now get special characters escaped
+ automatically. Common Test will not attempt to escape
+ characters printed with <c>ct:log/2</c> since it is
+ assumed that the user may want to print html tagged data
+ using this function. A new function, <c>ct:log/5</c>, has
+ been added, which offers optional escaping of characters.
+ The latter function may also be used to print text to the
+ log without headers and CSS class wrapping (analogue to
+ <c>io:format/2</c>).</p>

+ Commit 4cf832f1ad163f5b25dd8a6f2d314c169c23c82f
+ erroneously removed logging of open and close of netconf
+ connections. This is now corrected.</p>

+ The directory to which nodes started with
+ <c>test_server:start_node/3</c> writes their
+ erl_crash.dump is changed. The crashdumps were earlier
+ written to the directory of test_server.beam, but in
+ later versions of Microsoft Windows this is no longer
+ writable (even for administrators). The framework
+ (common_test) log directory is now used instead.</p>

+ This update makes it possible to specify multiple
+ instances of the same group or test case in one test
+ specification term in order to repeat execution. Example:
+ <c>{groups, "./", my_SUITE, [my_group, my_group], {cases,
+ all}}, or {cases, "./", my_SUITE, [my_tc, my_tc,
+ my_tc]}.</c></p>

+ Two new CT hook functions have been added:
+ <c>post_init_per_testcase/4</c> and
+ <c>pre_end_per_testcase/3</c>. With these hook functions,
+ it is possible to perform arbitrary actions (including
+ modifications of test execution, test state and results)
+ immediately before and after the execution of the test
+ case.</p>

+ The <c>ct_netconfc</c> was earlier very restrictive as to
+ which SSH options the user could set. This is now
+ changed, and any SSH option is now allowed. The netconf
+ client will simply pass on any option, which it does not
+ recognize, to SSH.</p>
