All options MUST be set +using the Set function; the historical "@XXX = (...) unless @XXX;" is no +longer allowed. + +The RTx::Shredder extension has been integrated into core, and several +features have been added, so you MUST uninstall it before upgrading. + +A new interface for making links in text clickable, and doing other +arbitrary text replacements, has been integrated into RT. You can read +more in `perldoc docs/extending/clickable_links.pod`. + +A new feature has been added that allows users to forward +messages. There is a new option in the config ($ForwardFromUser), new +rights, and a new template. + +New global templates have been added with "Error: " prefixed to the name +to make it possible to configure error messages sent to users. + +You can read about the new GnuPG integration in `perldoc +lib/RT/Crypt/GnuPG.pm`. + +New scrip conditions 'On Close' and 'On Reopen' have been added. + + +UPGRADING FROM 3.5.7 and earlier - Changes: + +Scrips are now prepared and committed in order alphanumerically by +description. This means that you can prepend a number (00, 07, 15, 24) +to the beginning of each scrip's description, and they will run in that +order. Depending on your database, the old ordering may have been by +scrip id number -- if that is the case, simply prepend the scrip id +number to the beginning of its description. + + +UPGRADING FROM 3.5.1 and earlier - Changes: + +The default for $RedistributeAutoGeneratedMessages has changed to +'privileged', to make out-of-the-box installations more resistant to +mail loops. If you rely on the old default of redistributing to all +watchers, you'll need to set it explicitly now.
