Here is a list of major additions and changes since the last release:

4. Adding [g0int_npow] and [g0float_npow] and overloading ** with them.
   For instance: (x+y)**3 expands to x**3 + 3*x**2*y + 3*x*y**2 + y**3
5. Adding the_s2rtdatmap to the jsonization of generated constraints
   (for listing the inductively defined sorts used in the constraints)
6. Supporting tail-call optimization for static function templates
7. Supporting #codegen2 for datcon, datcontag, and fprint
8. Supporting the use of $d2ctype for taking the type of a dynamic constant
