+Qt 5.6.2 is a bug-fix release. It maintains both forward and backward
+compatibility (source and binary) with Qt 5.6.0.
+
+For more details, refer to the online documentation included in this
+distribution. The documentation is also available online:
+
+ http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/index.html
+
+The Qt version 5.6 series is binary compatible with the 5.5.x series.
+Applications compiled for 5.5 will continue to run with 5.6.
+
+Some of the changes listed in this file include issue tracking numbers
+corresponding to tasks in the Qt Bug Tracker:
+
+ https://bugreports.qt.io/

+Each of these identifiers can be entered in the bug tracker to obtain more
+information about a particular change.

+******************************************************************************
+* Important Behavior Changes *
+******************************************************************************
+
+ - [QTBUG-45031] The NSURLConnection backend of QNetworkAccessManager has
+ been removed, since SecureTransport is the default SSL backend on iOS
+ and is enabled by default. This means that building with -no-openssl
+ -no-securetransport will no longer provide SSL capabilities on iOS.
+
+ - QUrl::resolved() no longer treats a URL with a scheme as a relative URL
+ if it matches this URL's scheme. For now it still treats "file:name.txt"
+ as relative for compatibility, but be warned that in Qt 5.8 it will no
+ longer consider those to be relative. Both isRelative() and RFC 3986 say
+ that such URLs are not relative, so starting from Qt 5.8, resolved() will
+ return them as is.
+
+ - [QTBUG-47815] QDateTime now uses QLocale to get the "AM" and "PM" strings
+ when parsing times, instead of strings obtained from the loaded
+ translations.
+
+******************************************************************************
+* Library *
+******************************************************************************
+
+QtCore
+------
+
+ - Optimized toLatin1()/toUtf8() called on a QStringBuilder expression.
+ - [QTBUG-18729][QTBUG-32457] Fixed a bug that caused Windows to show
+ dialogs prompting the user to insert media when certain operations were
+ made with Qt I/O classes, particularly QStorageInfo::mountedVolumes().
+
+ - QCommandLineParser:
+ * The methods that exit() the application will now call cleanup routines
+ registered with qAddPostRoutine.

+ - QDebug:
+ * Fixed streaming of QChars.
+
+ - QJsonObject:

+ contained invalid characters for XML 1.0.
+
+ - QXmlStreamWriter:

+******************************************************************************
+* Platform-specific Changes *
+******************************************************************************
+
+Android
+-------
+
+ - [QTBUG-50724] Added support for clang compiler.
+ - [QTBUG-53511] Fixed CJK font resolution on Android 7.
+
+BSDs
+----
+
+ - The freebsd-g++ mkspec was moved back and no longer requires the
+ "unsupported/" prefix, matching the FreeBSD ports tree, as FreeBSD 9.3
+ still defaults to using GCC. Users of GCC that did not previously use
+ the ports patch will need to adapt their build scripts and drop the
+ "unsupported/" prefix.
+ - Fixed a number of compilation issues on FreeBSD, NetBSD and OpenBSD. Qt
+ should now build out-of-the-box (no patches needed) on those systems.
+
+Linux
+-----
+
+ - [QTBUG-54733] It is now possible to opt out from installing signal
+ handlers when running with eglfs and linuxfb by setting the
+ QT_QPA_NO_SIGNAL_HANDLER environment variable to a non-zero value.
+ - Fixed the value of the 'defined' field in ATSPI GetAttributeValue
+ results.
+
+macOS
+-----
+
+ - [QTBUG-48953] Pasting text from Qt applications to Apple Mail now works.
+ - [QTBUG-48953] “text/vcard” is now required as the mime type when
+ placing vCards on the clipboard.
+ - OS X => macOS rename in Q_OS_ macros/docs, qmake scopes,
+ file selectors, etc.
+ - Add new QSysInfo values and MAC_OS_X / __MAC_ / __IPHONE_ values for
+ macOS 10.12 and iOS 9.1 through 10.0.
+ - Update prettyProductName with new macOS "Sierra" codename.
+
+Windows
+-------
+
+ - Fixed a new[]/delete mismatch in Windows tablet support.
