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.
