The built-in Tidy tool has been enhanced to support `*.robot` files but
[http://code.google.com/p/robotframework-ride/issues/detail?id=1182 RIDE
does not yet support them].
+=== Enhancements to running keywords dynamically ===
+
+ * New `Run Keyword And Return Status` keyword to return true/false
depending on keyword status (issue 1302). It is easier to use than old `Run
Keyword And Ignore Error` in many cases, especially with `Run Keyword If`.
+ * `Run Keywords` keyword allows running several keywords with arguments
by separating keyword calls with `AND` (issue 1303).
+
+=== Several enhancements to `Telnet` library ===
+
+[TelnetLibrary Telnet library] received plenty of enhancements:
+
+ * Messages are logged so that they get accurate timestamps (1301).
+ * Other encodings than ASCII are supported (issue 1312 and 1310).
+ * `Login` keyword was enhanced and its logging fixed (issue 1314).
+ * It is possible to set default log level globally (issue 1318).
+ * Library documentation was heavily enhanced (issue 1315).
