+ **Automatic meeting scheduler, improved support for remote instructions**
+
+ This release introduces the generate_schedule command, which will do auto-
+ layout of the schedule for an IETF meeting, with minimized conflicts. The
+ auto-scheduler output can also be used as input for further manual tweaks.
+ The goodness of the generated schedule very much depends on how complete the
+ input constraints are, and on the indicated cost of violating the various
+ constaints. It is expected that experience with using the output of the
+ auto-scheduler will lead to adjustment of the cost of violating various
+ constraints, and possibly also the introduction of new constraints.
+
+ There is also some other features, including support for the secretariat to
+ edit the remote_instructions field of sessions, which is necessary in order
+ to set remote call-in URLs for meeting sessions taking place in rooms that
+ don't already have a regular Meetecho channel.
+
+ From the commit log:
+
+ * Merged in the final part of the automatic scheduler from sasha@dashcare.nl.
+
+ * Renamed and adjusted a migration to avoid multiple migration leaf nodes.
+
+ * Fixed an issue with openid_userinfo() for persons with no email address.
+
+ * Renamed the automatic schedule generator command from 'schedule_generator'
+ to 'generate_schedule', so as to match our other 'generate_*' management
+ commands. Added some switches to the command, and added more information
+ to the default output, providing information about number of optimisation
+ runs and time consumed. Added a default value for the meeting option.
+
+ * Made it possible to provide a name to use for the generated schedule, and
+ changed the autogenerated names to be easier to remember and type for
+ later manual work based on an autogenerated schedule.
+
+ * Removed the command to purge request_profiler entries, given that
+ request_profiler is incompatible with Django 2.2 and has been removed
+
+ * Fixed a bug in the caching of the agenda, where too much of the page was
+ cached. Fixes issue #3008.
+
+ * Added a guard against trying to serialize session UTC start time for a
+ meeting with unknown timezone.
+
+ * Renamed a test module to conform to our name convention ('test_...' to
+ 'tests_...').
+
+ * Tweaked the HTML that puts session links and calendar links on the session
+ details page so as to put them on the same line.
+
+ * Added some CSRF settings to make login from a meetecho iframe possible.
+
+ * Added 'remote_instructions' as an editable field for misc. sessions in
+ the secretariat app, in order to be able to set remote access URLs.
+
+ * Reworked the support for remote access urls in the agenda_note and
+ remote_instructions fields of Session objects so as to accept any of a list
+ of conference service domains as remote call-in URLs (i.e., not only webex).
