    * Man-pages for dbus-broker and dbus-broker-launch are now built via
      meson and installed into `$prefix/man' by default.

    * AddListener() on org.bus1.DBus.Broker now supports uid-ranges. This
      is used by the launcher to implement at_console={true,false} policies
      by considering any uid higher than SYSTEMUIDMAX (as defined by
      systemd) to be at the console. For a detailed discussion, see:

          https://github.com/bus1/dbus-broker/issues/56
          https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/6762

    * The dbus-broker.service unit is now ordered before basic.target. This
      ensures that D-Bus applications can use the bus during shutdown.
      Until now, shutdown of the message bus was unordered against shutdown
      of D-Bus applications. While applications should handle such
      situations gracefully, ordering dbus-broker.service before
      basic.target eliminates a random source of bus errors during
      shutdown.

    * If running the launcher, you are highly recommended to update
      libexpat to 2.2.3, or newer. It contains fixes to avoid random stalls
      on /dev/random. For details, see:
