Probably best to save announcing this until the next release (still merging a few key PRs that make the additions usable for users).

Philip McGrath / Jordan Johnson:
- RFC 6265 cookies support in web-server
The web server's cookie libraries, including "id cookie" authentication, support RFC 6265.
(If anyone thinks this is worth mentioning:)
Id cookies now have the http-only? flag set by default.

[It's too internal. Not worth mentioning.]
What about 409321c0?
- When raco detects an ambiguous prefix of a command, it shows a list
of all the matches.
[I really don't like the redaction of this item. If you decide to
include it, I can try to rewrite it.]

Here's the candidate announcement I have. Comments welcome.
Vincent
- The official package catalog Web site is revised to have a new user
weeks into the past. Those provide a middle ground for users who want
access to new features earlier than stable releases, but want less
churn than nightly builds.
- DrRacket's #lang-line customization support works better with buggy
(i.e., in development) languages.
- DrRacket provides a refactoring tool to remove unused requires in
modules.
- The web server's cookie libraries, including "id cookie" authentication,
support RFC 6265.
- The `db` library supports PostgreSQL's UUID type.
- The `raco` command lists matching commands when passed an ambiguous
command prefix.
- Scribble supports the `acmart` LaTeX style, for use with ACM
publications.
- Scribble supports the use of CJK characters in tags.
