Version 2.6
-----------
-(codename to be selected, release date to be announced)
+(codename Convolution, released on July 24th 2011)
+
+- internal attributes now raise an internal attribute error now instead
+ of returning an undefined. This fixes problems when passing undefined
+ objects to Python semantics expecting APIs.
+- traceback support now works properly for PyPy. (Tested with 1.4)
+- implemented operator intercepting for sandboxed environments. This
+ allows application developers to disable builtin operators for better
+ security. (For instance limit the mathematical operators to actual
+ integers instead of longs)
+- groupby filter now supports dotted notation for grouping by attributes
+ of attributes.
+- scoped blocks now properly treat toplevel assignments and imports.
+ Previously an import suddenly "disappeared" in a scoped block.
+- automatically detect newer Python interpreter versions before loading code
+ from bytecode caches to prevent segfaults on invalid opcodes. The segfault
+ in earlier Jinja2 versions here was not a Jinja2 bug but a limitation in
+ the underlying Python interpreter. If you notice Jinja2 segfaulting in
+ earlier versions after an upgrade of the Python interpreter you don't have
+ to upgrade, it's enough to flush the bytecode cache. This just no longer
+ makes this necessary, Jinja2 will automatically detect these cases now.
+- the sum filter can now sum up values by attribute. This is a backwards
+ incompatible change. The argument to the filter previously was the
+ optional starting index which defaultes to zero. This now became the
+ second argument to the function because it's rarely used.
+- like sum, sort now also makes it possible to order items by attribute.
+- like sum and sort, join now also is able to join attributes of objects
+ as string.
+- the internal eval context now has a reference to the environment.
+- added a mapping test to see if an object is a dict or an object with
+ a similar interface.
