Particularly of note were: Taxonomy: Improve cache handling for term queries. Posts, Post Types: Clear post password cookie when logging out. Widgets: Allow basic HTML tags in sidebar descriptions on Widgets admin screen. Community Events Dashboard: Always show the nearest WordCamp if one is coming up, even if there are multiple Meetups happening first.

2018-07-04*: Move SUBST_STAGE from post-patch to pre-configurejperkin1-2/+2
Performing substitutions during post-patch breaks tools such as mkpatches, making it very difficult to regenerate correct patches after making changes, and often leading to substituted string replacements being committed.
