What changed in detail?
=======================

CHANGES IN FRAMEWORK SINCE 0.80.6
* Improved QPA (Qt Lighthouse) support
* New MImUpdateEvent: Instead of forcing plugins to poll data from
  MAbstractInputMethodHost after each update, they can now choose to handle
  this MImExtensionEvent. MImUpdateEvent informs about the changes (through its
  propertiesChanged list) and allows extraction of updates through its value
  method.
* More dynamic key override examples.
* Bring dynamic key overrides to QML plugins.
* Let QObject properties override input method queries. This allows more
  consistent integration with QML Componeents and plain Qt apps.

CHANGES IN PLUGINS SINCE 0.80.6
* Merge latest Harmattan VKB plugin into Maliit upstream.
* Caps-lock functionlity and dynamic key overrides for QML plugin.
