The commit implements a general mechanism for providing special
(e.g. completion) support for specific link types when entering links
with `C-c C-l'. After calling `C-c C-l', you may now press RET after
inserting a link prefix, and Org will look for a function
`org-PREFIX-complete-link'. Such functions may be defined for any
link types, including link abbreviations. Currently, Org has
`org-file-complete-link' for file name completion, and
`org-bbdb-complete-link' for completion of record names from BBDB.

There was indeed a bug, I think it is fixed now.
Editing source code examples and pictures is not done in a truly
separate buffer, not in an indirect buffer. Indirect buffers had
caused problems with fontification, for example.

There is now a better error message when either the latex or the
dvipng program does not exist.

The variable `org-refile-target-verify-function' can be set to a
function that will be called to verify a refile target. The function
must return t if the target is valid.
Sometimes refiling a task displays the next task heading after ... at the
end of a folded task. This keeps the next task the cursor is on starting
in column 1 which feels more natural.
When refiling, you can now create new parent nodes on the fly. To do
this, set the variable `org-refile-allow-creating-parent-nodes' to
`confirm'. Then, at a refiling prompt, proceed with completion until
you have an existing heading, and then add "/new heading", i.e. a
slash followed by the new heading. That heading will be created as a
child of the existing heading, and the entry to be refiled will end up
under that new heading.
Time stamps in LaTeX export now also honor custom time stamp formats.
Furthermore, the new option `org-export-latex-timestamp-markup' can
specify special markup for time stamps.

Both problems are address in this commit.
The following contributed packages are (partially) obsolete.
org-browser-url.el
org-annotation-helper.el
The functionality of both these packages is a subset of
org-protocol.el, which is now part of the Emacs core
and is recommended.
org-depend.el
A significant fraction of the org-depend functionality
dependence on siblings, children, and parents) is now
built-in into the Org core. Org-depend remains
in the distribution as a proof-of-concept fro complex
and remote dependencies.
org-interactive-query.el
I believe that much of what this package was build for
is now available with tag filtering.
These packages are now marked in org-modules as such.
