Significant Changes

Migrated Staging from autotools to the Meson build system.
Those building from source, please see BUILD.md in the repository.
Added write-xor-execute page support to comply with the latest macOS and SELinux security policies.
Thanks to jmarsh and Jonathan Campbell for discussions on vogons.
Added variable expansion to the interactive DOS shell.
Finished FluidSynth integration, which is now included in all release binaries.
See the wiki notes for how to use it.
Run mixer /listmidi in the DOS shell to see your available soundfonts.
Thanks to Christian Lestrade for authoring this support in 2005, and all subsequent maintainers.
Thanks to Meson for adding FluidSynth to the WrapDB.
Finished MT-32 integration, which is now included in all release binaries.
See the wiki notes for how to use it.
Run mixer /listmidi in the DOS shell to see the available MT-32 models and versions.
See the list of unmissable MT-32 experiences, courtesy vogons.org forum user Shreddoc and contributors.
Thanks to Canadacow for authoring MT-32 emulation in 2003, KingGuppy and Mok for the follow-on work, and SergM who continues to maintain and improve the Munt project today.
Thanks to Meson for adding libmt32emu to the WrapDB.
Thanks to Microsoft for adding libmt32emu to Vcpkg.
Added IBM PS/1 Audio device support.
See the wiki notes for how to use it.
Thanks to JMK for authoring PS/1 Audio emulation in 2008.
Added Innovation SSI-2001 audio device support.
See the wiki notes for how to use it.
Thanks to Vasyl for authoring SSI-2001 emulation in 2006.
Thanks to Dag Lem for authoring, and Antti Lankila and Leandro Nini for improving the SID chip emulator.
Replaced the default Ctrl+F<keys> hotkeys on macOS with Cmd+F<keys> to reduce conflicts with the OS.
Thanks to Antti Peltola, Burrito78, and Kirk Klobe for guidance and testing.
Added or Improved translations for French, Italian, Polish, Russian, and Spanish.
Thanks to Draky50110 (fr), Kappa971 (it), dreamer (po), IlyaIndigo (ru), and Peluchito (es).
Added splash_only to the startup_verbosity settings. This shows the splash but skips the help banner.
Three relative window sizes: small, medium, or large are now understood by the windowresolution conf setting. These T-shirt sizes correspond to a window that's 25%, 50%, or 80% of your desktop's area, regardless of DPI or type of monitor (be it 720p, 1080p, or 4K).
Window resizeable using corner-drag is now auto-enabled on all platforms when conditions permit.
As they say,

YOINK

And thank to the devs for steadily dragging DOSbox into the modern ages. I can't imagine what a nightmare working with SDL 1 & SVN was.

I don't get why the original Dosbox team is so hesitant to embrace modern programming norms, like using Github.

Their loss, I suppose....

but still won't document the various important-sounding (and esoteric) options in dosbox.conf

read teh code!

PS at least these guys have a Discord page/channel/server whatever. Now *that's* important.
In case it's of interest to anyone here, maintainer Patryk Obara was a guest on a recent episode of CppCast.

Given how long it took OpenTTD to move off Flyspray, (A bug tracking system written in PHP), I assume there's the fear of moving a 20 year old codebase over to a new system. (Even though Git does support SVN Import/Outport.)
