+============
+
+Features
+--------
+
+- ``ACLAuthorizationPolicy`` supports ``__acl__`` as a callable. This
+ removes the ambiguity between the potential ``AttributeError`` that would
+ be raised on the ``context`` when the property was not defined and the
+ ``AttributeError`` that could be raised from any user-defined code within
+ a dynamic property. It is recommended to define a dynamic ACL as a callable
+ to avoid this ambiguity. See https://github.com/Pylons/pyramid/issues/735.
+
+- Allow a protocol-relative URL (e.g. ``//example.com/images``) to be passed to
+ ``pyramid.config.Configurator.add_static_view``. This allows
+ externally-hosted static URLs to be generated based on the current protocol.
+
+- The ``AuthTktAuthenticationPolicy`` now supports IPv6 addresses when using
+ the ``include_ip=True`` option. This is possibly incompatible with
+ alternative ``auth_tkt`` implementations, as the specification does not
+ define how to properly handle IPv6. See
+ https://github.com/Pylons/pyramid/issues/831.
+
+Bug Fixes
+---------
+
+- View lookup will now search for valid views based on the inheritance
+ hierarchy of the context. It tries to find views based on the most
+ specific context first, and upon predicate failure, will move up the
+ inheritance chain to test views found by the super-type of the context.
+ In the past, only the most specific type containing views would be checked
+ and if no matching view could be found then a PredicateMismatch would be
+ raised. Now predicate mismatches don't hide valid views registered on
+ super-types. Here's an example that now works::
+
+ .. code-block:: python
+
+ class IResource(Interface):
+ ...
+
+ @view_config(context=IResource)
+ def get(context, request):
+ ...
+
+ @view_config(context=IResource, request_method='POST')
+ def post(context, request):
+ ...
+
+ @view_config(context=IResource, request_method='DELETE')
+ def delete(context, request):
+ ...
+
+ @implementor(IResource)
+ class MyResource:
+ ...
+
+ @view_config(context=MyResource, request_method='POST')
+ def override_post(context, request):
+ ...
+
+ Previously the override_post view registration would hide the get
+ and delete views in the context of MyResource -- leading to a
+ predicate mismatch error when trying to use GET or DELETE
+ methods. Now the views are found and no predicate mismatch is
+ raised.
