• Improved Eagle import
  
• Preliminary scaling support for High DPI monitors
  
• Integrated system variable editor
  
• Uses local symbols as default. Github plugin should be deprecated
  
• Rendering improvements (anti aliasing of fonts, translucency of layers, color wheel)
  
• Digikey made a large donation, largest in the project's history (undisclosed sum)

• net highlighting in eeschema + synchronized highlighting between eeschema and pcb_new
  
• simpler tool for updating pcb from schematic
  
• symbol lib table added (symbol lib management is now similar to footprint management)
  
• reorganized libraries. Libs now have their own download section on the webside. (The github plugin has been dropped for default setups)
  
• New symbol library editor interface
  
• automatic junction management + better connection algorithm (eeschema)
  
• Better handling of buses in eeschema (Not sure if everything that was proposed has been merged)
  
• Line styles for graphical polygons in eeschema
  
• Integrated interface for a spice simulator
  
• new component chooser. (adding symbols to a schematic will allow to select footprints at the same time.) This is sadly not enabled by default as it seems there are performance issues on some platforms.
  
• New pad types (polygon and rounded rectangle)
  
• Graphical polygons in pcb_new and in the footprint editor
  
• Flip board in pcb_new (look at it from the bottom)
  
• Graphical polygons in eeschema now support different line colors and line styles.
  
• Better copy paste support
