**New features**
+* PDF media type!
+* Improved plugin system. More flexible, better documented, with a
+ new plugin authoring section of the docs.
+* itsdangerous based sessions. No more beaker!
+* New, experimental Piwigo-based API. This means you should be able
+ to use MediaGoblin with something like Shotwell. (Again, a word of
+ caution: this is *very experimental*!)
+* Human readable timestamps, and the option to display the original
+ date of an image when available (available as the
+ "original_date_visible" variable)
+* Moved unit testing system from nosetests to py.test so we can better
+ handle issues with sqlalchemy exploding with different database
+ configurations. Long story :)
+* You can now disable the ability to post comments.
+* Tags now can be up to length 255 characters by default.
