  === Changes ===
  
+  * No longer rewrites the X-CouchDB-Requested-Path during recursive
+    calls to the rewriter.
+  * Limit recursion depth in the URL rewriter. Defaults to a maximum
+    of 100 invocations but is configurable.
+  * Fix couchdb start script.
+  * Win: fix linker invocations.
+  * Disable buttons that aren't available for the logged-in user.
+  * Fix potential timeouts.

-  * cURL is no longer required to build CouchDB as it is only required by the command line JS test runner.
-  * Added a native JSON parser.
-  * Optional file compression (database and view index files). This feature is enabled by default.
-  * Several performance improvements, especially regarding database writes and view indexing.
-  * Added a `data_size` property to database and view group information URIs.
-  * Added support for automatic compaction. This feature is disabled by default, but it can be enabled via the .ini configuration.

-  * Fixed old index file descriptor leaks after a view cleanup.
-  * Performance improvements for the built-in changes feed filters `_doc_ids` and `_design`.

-  * Fix use of OAuth with VHosts and URL rewriting.
-  * OAuth secrets can now be stored in the users system database.
-  * Documents in the _users database can no longer be read by everyone.
-  * Confidential information in the _replication database can no longer be read by everyone.
-  * Password hashes are now calculated by CouchDB instead of the client.

-  * Fixed incorrect reduce query results when using pagination parameters.
-  * Made icu_driver work with Erlang R15B and later.
-  * Improvements to the build system and etap test suite.
-  * Avoid invalidating view indexes when running out of file descriptors.

  == Release Support Policy ==
  
- As general rule, we support whatever the latest version is plus the latest version of the previous release branch. Say if 1.1.1 is the latest release, and there is also 1.0.3, that's the ones we support. We do not support 1.0.2 and once 1.2.0 comes out, we drop support for 1.0.3 and 1.1.1 will be the oldest version supported
