    13  ## Features
    14  
    15  - Add translations for de-DE. (<https://github.com/decred/dcrdex/commit/d8c6ce38a654c06be3e8f89c371779bd160dc62a>)
    16  - Native BTC wallets now have an option to obtain a current network fee rate from an external source. (<https://github.com/decred/dcrdex/commit/1af28ea482f408601d2c3837d420eba3fd698c82>)
    17  - Decred wallets now have the ability to change certain settings without requiring a full restart of the wallet. This allows the user to change certain minor settings such as the option to use the external fee rate source while trades are active. However, it is still recommended to keep wallet settings unchanged while trades are active. (<https://github.com/decred/dcrdex/commit/2ac43deb63bf153606ad28816a26c9e32ff5768c>)
    18  
    19  ## Fixes
    20  
    21  - Concurrent login requests are handled in sequence now, preventing certain bugs when the user attempts to login again while a previous login request is being handled. (<https://github.com/decred/dcrdex/commit/5084446542f9142e4f08c444c704604d86b7e70d>)
    22  - The password fields on the wallet configuration forms are generated with the `autocomplete = 'off'` attribute. This improves privacy by preventing the browser from remembering the values entered. (<https://github.com/decred/dcrdex/commit/3d365d73087fc615b816e96709d338d877bbb219>)
    23  - The network fees paid for a swap redemption were incorrectly shown on the order details page. The correct fees are now shown. (<https://github.com/decred/dcrdex/commit/11ce1ffcd3cc405797cd7718f1ff254a796a547e>)
    24  - Various frontend fixes. (<https://github.com/decred/dcrdex/commit/b01d81c01154b08306d040dbaca903d21f3f9acc>)
    25  - More thorough handling of epoch status orders when network connectivity is interrupted and restored. This may resolve a variety of uncancellable orders, as well as perpetual locking of funds, which was previously only resolvable by restarting the DEX client. (<https://github.com/decred/dcrdex/commit/942e5946d43db4750f313fc9260093e663904210>)
    26  - The default RPC port is removed from the Electrum wallet configuration form since there is no default. (<https://github.com/decred/dcrdex/commit/e9ca06d353c7aa1f66a120ac8b9b8a6cc021983e>)
    27  
    28  ## Server
    29  
    30  - The server now sends a `revoke_order` notification after a preimage miss to assist with epoch order status resolution with clients that had lost connectivity at the time of the preimage request, but regained connectivity before the end of that epoch's match cycle. (<https://github.com/decred/dcrdex/commit/26fa5a1e4f4b9820a3681de35e6aab4482a676d3>)
