 - Added `times.fromUnixFloat,toUnixFloat`, subsecond resolution versions of `fromUnix`,`toUnixFloat`.
 - Added `wrapnils` module for chains of field-access and indexing where the LHS can be nil.
   This simplifies code by reducing need for if-else branches around intermediate maybe nil values.
-  Eg: `echo ?.n.typ.kind`
+  E.g. `echo ?.n.typ.kind`
 - Added `minIndex` and `maxIndex` to the `sequtils` module
 - Added `os.isRelativeTo` to tell whether a path is relative to another
 - Added `resetOutputFormatters` to `unittest`

 - `htmlgen.html` allows `lang` on the `<html>` tag and common valid attributes.
 - `macros.basename` and `basename=` got support for `PragmaExpr`,

-- `httpclient.maxredirects` changed from `int` to `Natural`, because negative values serve no purpose whatsoever.
-- `httpclient.newHttpClient` and `httpclient.newAsyncHttpClient` added `headers` argument to set initial HTTP Headers,
