This blog is updated daily.

The ‘Update packages ...’ menu item now runs ‘update.packages(ask="graphics", checkBuilt=TRUE’.
There is support for cairographics-based devices using the same code as on Unix-alikes. This can be selected by the new ‘type’ argument of the bitmap devices ‘bmp()’, ‘jpeg()’, ‘png()’ and ‘tiff()’, and devices ‘svg()’, ‘cairo_pdf()’ and ‘cairo_ps()’ are now available on Windows.
These are not compiled in by default: see the instructions in the ‘R Installation and Administration Manual’.
The windows() screen device would sometimes fail to plot points with ‘pch="."’. PR#14583
