+            <h4>Improved exercise submission packaging to avoid overly large archives</h4>
+            <p>
+                Previously, some unnecessary files were included when packaging exercise
+                submissions, sometimes leading to very large archives if a large file happened to be
+                in the exercise directory.
+            </p>
+            <h4>Improved extension data migration from one version to the next</h4>
+            <p>
+                The format of the extension data may change between extension releases, and in such
+                cases it's necessary to migrate data from the previous format to the new one. This
+                operation has been made more robust in preparation for a future update.
