+ <p>
+ Increased size of node incarnation numbers (aka
+ "creation"), from 2 bits to 32 bits. This will reduce the
+ risk of pids/ports/refs, from different node incarnation
+ with the same name, being mixed up.</p>
+ <p>
+ Own Id: OTP-15603</p>
+ </item>
+ <item>
+ <p>
+ Fix various build issues when compiling Erlang/OTP to the
+ IBM AIX platform.</p>
+ <p>
+ Own Id: OTP-15866 Aux Id: PR-2110 </p>
+ </item>
+ <item>
+ <p>
+ Improved node connection setup handshake protocol. Made
+ possible to agree on protocol version without dependence
+ on <c>epmd</c> or other prior knowledge of peer node
+ version. Also added exchange of node incarnation
+ ("creation") values and expanded the distribution
+ capability flag field from 32 to 64 bits.</p>
+ <p>
+ Own Id: OTP-16229</p>
+ </item>
+ <item>
+ <p>
+ New <c>erl_call</c> option <c>-address [Host]:Port</c> to
+ connect directly to a node without being dependent on
+ <c>epmd</c> to resolve the node name.</p>
+ <p>
+ Own Id: OTP-16251</p>
+ </item>
+ <item>
+ <p>
+ Removed the deprecated parts of <c>erl_interface</c>
+ (essentially all C functions with prefix <c>erl_</c>).</p>
+ <p>
+ Own Id: OTP-16328</p>
+ </item>
+ <item>
+ <p>
+ As announced in OTP 22.0, the previously existing limited
+ support for VxWorks has now been removed.</p>
+ <p>
+ *** POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY ***</p>
+ <p>
+ Own Id: OTP-16329 Aux Id: OTP-15621 </p>
+ </item>
+ <item>
+ <p>
+ New function <c>ei_connect_host_port</c> and friends to
+ allow node connection without being dependent on
+ <c>epmd</c> for node name resolution.</p>
