+** Files can be visited asynchronously.
+If the new user option 'execute-file-commands-asynchronously' has a
+non-nil value, interactive file visiting commands load the file
+asynchronously into the respective buffer. I.e., Emacs is still
+responsive while loading the files, which is useful especially for
+remote files. If the value is a regular expression, files matching
+this expression are loaded asynchronously. See the node "(emacs)
+Visiting" in the user manual for the supported commands.

+ ** add-dir-local-variable now uses dotted pair notation syntax
+ to write alists of variables to .dir-locals.el. This is the same
+ syntax that you can see in the example of a .dir-locals.el file
+ in (info "(emacs) Directory Variables")
