Hi,

This new release does not have many new features but it does include a
large number of fixes.

The most prominent new features are:
* fast nvjpeg encoder (for nvidia GPUs only)
  this is particularly useful for getting a good framerate with the
HTML5 client
* using "pinentry" on Linux for password prompts and confirmation dialogs
  (this can be turned off with XPRA_PINENTRY=0, and for ssh with
XPRA_SSH_PINENTRY=0)
* subcommands for managing displays, sessions and cleaning up:
  'recover', 'displays', 'list-sessions', 'clean-displays',
'clean-sockets' etc
* user-friendly GUI for starting local and remote sessions
