I believe there are countless others like me who never found/ made the time to be involved or took the opportunity to thank everybody for their contributions to something that provides a tremendous amount of value to such a large community of users.

Oh I found two small little things:

Rendering principle <https://www.qgis.org/en/site/forusers/visualchangelog314/index.html#rendering-principle>
Static dataset <https://www.qgis.org/en/site/forusers/visualchangelog314/index.html#static-dataset>
@Charles can you look at the mesh entry and change the markdown for those so they dont appear as heading 1 and thus category entries in the rendered HTML?

This is one of the longest changelings we every had, and as more people participate by adding screencasts I guess this is going to be a natural side effect….we can think on how to reduce it in future  - maybe generate thumbs always and require a click to see the animated GIF’s

Thanks so much Richard, Charles and all others who contributed to the changelog (and of course the devs who made the actual features :-P and the poor translators who will spend their time translating this).

Regards

Tim
