Release date: Not yet released

New options to allow Moodle to be configured to comply with European and US privacy regulations, like FERPA. Petr Skoda, moodle.com
Fix bugs relating to creating and editing course categories. Previously, giving admin permissions in a category and its subcategories did not work reliably. In the process, the separate create, update and delete category capabilities were replaced with moodle/category:manage, and moodle/category:visibility was renamed to moodle/category:viewhiddencategories. Tim Hunt, moodle.com
Essay questions can now be randomised by random questions. This must be enabled under Administration > Miscellaneous > Experimental. (MDL-8648) Tim Hunt, moodle.com.
A new capability mod/quiz:reviewmyattempts, separate from mod/quiz:attempt. This let's you create a read-only role that lets students see what they have done on a course in the past, without being able to change anything any more. Tim Hunt, moodle.com
New Site policies setting for disabling Notes
New Internal enrolment settings for enforcing enrolment key usage and complexity
Email notification of course requests, and a new capability moodle/course:request to control who can request courses. Petr Skoda and Tim Hunt, moodle.com
