+<b>Announcement:</b> GnuCash 3.10 Release
+2020-04-10
+
+<h2>GnuCash 3.10 released</h2>
+
+<p>The GnuCash development team announces GnuCash 3.10, the eleventh release of the 3.x stable release series.</p>
+<h3>Changes</h3>
+
+<p>This is a snap release to reverse the changes to the reconcile
+window's filtering reconciled transactions with a reconcile date after
+the current statement date when computing the starting balance. It
+seems that many users' books have accounts with reconcile dates in the
+future that were suddenly filtered out, creating an incorrect starting
+balance and making it impossible to reconcile the book.
+</p>
+<p>Between 3.9 and 3.10, the following bugfixes were accomplished:</p>
+<ul>
+<li><a href="https://bugs.gnucash.org/show_bug.cgi?id=620848">Bug 620848 - Transfer Funds window - add Notes field</a></li>
+<li><a href="https://bugs.gnucash.org/show_bug.cgi?id=797006">Bug 797006 - Balance is misleading in open subaccounts when different currencies are involved</a></li>
+<li><a href="https://bugs.gnucash.org/show_bug.cgi?id=797318">Bug 797318 - Amounts ending in zero displayed as fractions</a></li>
+<li><a href="https://bugs.gnucash.org/show_bug.cgi?id=797659">Bug 797659 - Liabilities in budget report no longer calculate correctly</a><p>candidate fix </p></li>
+<li><a href="https://bugs.gnucash.org/show_bug.cgi?id=797666">Bug 797666 - libgnucash/engine/test/test-recurrence.c: In function 'check_valid': 'result' may be used uninitialized</a></li>
+<li><a href="https://bugs.gnucash.org/show_bug.cgi?id=797676">Bug 797676 - Register displays amount in transaction currency...</a><p>instead of register currency. </p></li>
+<li><a href="https://bugs.gnucash.org/show_bug.cgi?id=797674">Bug 797674 - 3.9: "test-gnc-path-util" failed on Debian amd64</a></li>
+</ul>
+
+<p> The following fixes and improvements were not associated with bug reports:</p>
+<ul>
+<li>Update latest translation from the Translation project.</li>
+<li>[window-reconcile] when reconciling, warn on splits having a
+ reconcile date > statement_date</li>
+<li>[window-reconcile] when inputing statement_date, warn if it's after today</li>
+<li>[find-transactions] add search for reconciled date</li>
+<li>Show transaction value, not amount, for registers with subaccounts.<p>If the register has subaccounts in different currencies and a transaction has splits in more than one, the transaction will incorrectly appear to be unbalanced if we total amounts because the balancing logic works on split values. </p></li>
+<li>Revert "Bug 797659 - Liabilities in budget report no longer calculate correctly"<p>Reverted for snap release. Not tested thoroughly yet. </p></li>
+<li>Add instance argument to Session constructor<p> Enables a python console to connect to the running GnuCash's session.</p></li>
+<li>Make python console less noisy without --debug.</li>
+<li>Provide locals and globals of calling context to the python console's shell on shell init</li>
+<li>Merge Jean Laroche's '797006_subaccounts' into maint.</li>
+<li>Add check to display warning dialog for mismatched commodities</li>
+<li>Replicate changes in *2 files</li>
+<li>Apply astyle to modified files</li>
+<li>Merge Chris Mayo's iPython-fixes into maint.</li>
+<li>Make pycons/ishell.py compatible with Python 3 and current IPython</li>
+<li>[eguile-utilities] Prevent crash in balsheet-eg.scm</li>
+<li>[eguile] escape-html -> gnc:html-string-sanitize</li>
+<li>[qif-to-gnc] Properly mark intra-QIF internal transfers.</li>
+</ul>
+
+<p>We have a revised Ukrainian translation.</p>
