+    Bug 799458 - Crash attempting to edit a scheduled transaction
+    Bug 799470 - Crash when clicking on Schedule Transaction Editor
+
+The following fixes and improvements were not associated with bug reports:
+
+    Tabs now close when you middle-click on them.
+    The SX editor's saved duration and height are stored differently in
+        preferences so values previously saved will be lost when switching
+        between versions 5.9 and 5.10 (and later). We regret the inconvenience
+        but the new scheme better matches GnuCash's use of the preferences.
+    Allow 0 cash amount when using the Stock Assistant to create a sell
+        transaction. This might happen if the commission and fees exactly
+        balance the proceeds of the sale.
+    Enforce searching for our gsettings schema files first where they were
+        installed. This was not done when the installation prefix was /usr
+        or /usr/local which could potentially cause gnucash to find other
+        schema files first.
+    Set tooltip text on the outer tab container again so that it can be updated
+        by main_window_update_page_long_name.
+    Tooltips on chart reports now appear any time the pointer hovers in the
+        chart area and reflect the nearest point. Previously the pointer had
+        to be very close to a point.
+    Updated the quote source lists in the Security Editor dialog to reflect the
+        current Finance::Quote version.
+    Display a warning dialog when a transaction is unbalanceable because the
+        user has set a minimum fraction on an account smaller than the
+        security's fraction in a book using trading accounts.
+    Deleting a commodity will fail if there are accounts denominated in the
+        commodity. When reporting the error to the user list those accounts.
+    Correct in Tips of the Day the IRC network where GnuCash's channel can be
+        found.
+    Ensure Python bindings Session constructor loads the session's data.
+    Fix compile failures with Boost 1.87. This requires the minimum Boost
+        version to be 1.67, removing the option for distributions to patch
+        older versions.
+    Prevent deleting an account with an open register from logging spurious
+        errors
+    Check that GUI refreshes are not suspended before calling
+        gnc_gui_refresh_all.
+    Unify wording for alphavazntage tooltips.
+    New script to update translator-credits. See POD for usage instructions.
+    Document cmake 3.14 requirement set a year ago.
+
+New and Updated Translations: Chinese (Simplified Han script),
+    Chinese (Traditional Han script), Croatian, Dutch, English (Australia),
+    English (New Zealand), English (United Kingdom), French, German, Hebrew,
+    Hungarian, Japanese, Portuguese, Portuguese (Brazil), Russian, Spanish,
