    Release Notes: In this release, there has been a significant change to the search extension limits, a minor tweak to reduce the time limit by 1/4 for ponder=off games was made, a fix to correctly realize that KR[BN] vs KRR is a draw for the KRR side if it doesn't have at least a pawn left was made, and other minor fixes and improvements have also been made.

    Release Notes: A change in endgame draw recognition to handle the case where one side appears to be in a lost ending but is stalemated, and a minor evaluation change to notice that K+B+right RP vs K+B is not necessarily won if the weaker side has a bishop of the right color.
