* When a student sets the speed for a video, that speed setting is now saved and used when the student views subsequent videos. (BLD-237)
* In the Video component, the settings on the **Advanced** tab now include **Transcript Download Allowed** and **Video Download Allowed**, and **Download Video** has been merged into **Video Sources** to eliminate redundancy. A description of each setting is available at `Video Advanced Options <http://ca.readthedocs.org/en/latest/create_video.html#advanced-options>`_. (BLD-364, BLD-368)
* For numerical response problems, students can now enter negative exponents in the same ways they can enter positive exponents. For example, students can enter ``4.9e-9`` or ``4.9*10^-9``. (BLD-434)
* For string response questions, students can now enter regex expressions as answers. (BLD-475)
* For text input problems, course teams can now use regular expressions to allow some flexibility in students' answers. For example, if a question asks students to name the birthplace of Bill Clinton, students can answer "Hope, AR", "Hope, Arkansas", or "Arkansas."
* The video length now appears when a student first views the video component. The student no longer has to start the video to see the total time. (BLD-529)

* If a student submitted a response to be peer graded when the XQueue was down, the submission was lost. The LMS now prevents response submissions when the XQueue is down. Students see an error message that tells them to try to submit the response later. (ORA-197)
* Large comments in peer grading caused database issues. Comments now have a 5000 character limit, which prevents this problem. (ORA-201)
* In self assessments, students had to submit responses before the deadline for the problem passed, but didn't have to perform the self assessment of their responses before the deadline. Students must now submit both the response to the problem and their self assessment of that response before the deadline for the problem. (ORA-202)
