-=== Behavior changes ===

- The old names are provided too for compatibility, but make sure they don't
- conflict if you've been putting other files in your wiki.
-* Uploaded filenames are more strictly checked than before. See bits in
- DefaultSettings.php to tweak this behavior to your needs.
-* Database messages are now enabled by default, so the interface messages can
- be tweaked through the wiki with a sysop account. Disable this if you
- don't want the performance hit.

-(patch-rc-newindex.sql for manual updaters).
