-* $wgWikiId added to override default output of wfWikiId()

 * $wgDBAhandler added to choose a DBA handler when using CACHE_DBA

+* $wgUploadNavigationUrl now also affects images inline images that do not 
+  exist. In that case the URL will get (?|&)wpDestFile=<filename> appended to 
+  it as appropriate.
+* If $wgLocaltimezone is null, use the server's timezone as the default for
+  signatures. This was always the behaviour documented in DefaultSettings.php
+  but has not been the actual behaviour for some time: instead, UTC was used 
+  by default.
+* Added $wgExtensionAssetsPath, to decouple assets serving from $wgScriptPath.
+  If not specified it will default to $wgScriptPath/extensions
+* Added $wgCountTotalSearchHits to make search UI display total number of hits
+  with some search engines.
+* Added $wgAdvertisedFeedTypes to decide what feed types (RSS, Atom, both, or
+  neither) MediaWiki advertises.  Default is array( 'atom' ), so RSS is no
+  longer advertised by default (but it still works).
