+palemoon (29.0.0-1+devuan) obs; urgency=medium
+
+ * New major milestone release:
+ - Implemented Intl.PluralRules API for JavaScript.
+ - Added a frequently-requested preference (browser.tabs.allowTabDetach) to
+ disable "tearing off" of tabs (meaning dragging them outside of the tab
+ bar resulting in them being made into their own window).
+ - Added FLAC as a recognized filetype-by-extension.
+ - Implemented basic support for the scrollbar-width CSS keyword. See
+ implementation notes.
+ - Added preliminary support for modern FreeBSD builds.
+ - Selectively enabled core features of the DOM Animations API.
+ - Enabled AV1 video support by default (previously built but not enabled in
+ releases).
+ - Added support for pointer events.
+ - Added support for the SVG transform-box property.
+ - Added support for the inputmode property for forms to enable
+ context-sensitive display of soft keyboards.
+ - Enabled shutting down of the file I/O worker when idle for a while
+ (resource optimization).
+ - Enabled blocking of auto-play of media in the background by default.
+ - We now offer official GTK3 builds for Linux alongside the GTK2 builds.
+ - Partial (and as of yet, not acceptably functional) implementation of
+ Google WebComponents. See implementation notes.
+ Changes/fixes:
+ - Updated NSPR to 4.29.
+ - Updated NSS to 3.59.
+ - Disabled legacy database format for storage of certificates and passwords.
+ - Updated several site-specific user-agent overrides for web compatibility.
+ - Improved styling of the "find in page" bar to avoid unreadable text on
+ some system themes.
+ - Removed a large chunk of Android-specific code.
+ - Split gkmedias.dll back out from xul.dll.
+ - Cleaned up a number of redundant and obsolete code paths.
+ - Fixed a regression with the Performance API.
+ - Fixed an initialization issue in the browser when users would
+ force-disable certain types of caching.
+ - Fixed a crash when attempting to save a file from FTP that could be
+ displayed in the browser.
+ - Fixed the root cause of an issue with JavaScript module loading causing
+ crashes. See implementation notes.
+ - Fixed a rare initialization issue for the print preview window causing it
+ to not display.
+ - Fixed a crash on Mac when text input was not secure.
+ - Disabled the Storage Manager API by default.
+ - Disabled the <menuitem> html tag by default. If you still need this, you
+ can re-enable it with the preference dom.menuitem.enabled in about:config.
+ - Fixed a memory safety issue related to XUL trees (CVE-2021-23962).
+ - Implemented several defense-in-depth measures to improve stability and
+ future security.
