  [ Chris Lamb ]
  * Check for debian/upstream/metadata files without bug tracking
    information and upstream repository locations.
    (Closes: #950115, #950117)
  * Check for new packages that use a date-based versioning scheme
    (eg. YYYYMMDD-1) without a 0~ suffix. (Closes: #953036)
  * Don't report about using a newer Standards-Version when uploading to
    backports.
  * Clarify the error message when tags are not covered in the testsuite.

  [ Felix Lechner ]
  * Also analyse Ubuntu's automatic debug packages which have the
    non-standard suffix .ddeb. (Closes: #951513, #953857)
  * Parse newline escapes correctly in md5sum files. (Closes: #929729)
  * Remove tag pkg-config-references-unknown-shared-library; outside of
    Lintian's purview. (Closes: #953099)
  * Rewrite check for compressed gzip archives; print modification time of
    first member. (Re: #762105)
  * Add a new tag called bash-completion-with-hashbang.
  * Add tag and check for absolute symbolic link targets in source trees.
  * Reduce severity and mark PE32+ related tag experimental; set security
    features for test binary explicitly.
  * Offer to calibrate test results for literal matching strategy.
  * Strip leading slashes from absolute paths for file names and hard link
    targets.
  * Issue a tag when the Excluded-Files field is present in copyright
    within native packages.
  * Display Lintian's command-line options in the process table (eg.
    top(1), etc.)

  [ Paul Wise ]
  * Add several spelling corrections.

  [ Xavier Guimard ]
  * Extend NodeJS checks to modules that use naming such as "@foo/bar".
