	  'inactive' items to the end of the list, does not raise error if
	  any item is both 'dynamic' and 'inactive', or if there are no items;

      '/interface ovpn-client', fixed;
    fixed problems with export:
        some settings were not included in full export, such as
	  '/interface wireless nstreme');
	some settings had duplicate entries with an error, such as
	  '/system ntp client' when ntp package was enabled;
	long parameter values were incorrectly split across multiple lines;
    export now quotes all values that are split across multiple lines, it
      also adds line split before all newline characters, which improves
      readability of exported script sources;
*) api - some properties were included multiple times in getall responses;
*) port - properly tag all inactive ports;
*) port - fixed memory leak that was triggered by addition/removal of

   in console;
*) console - changed behaviour of '.' operator when one or both of operands
    is an array, now it produces an array with all pairwise concatenated
    elements of left and right arrays. An example:
    if $A contains array 1,2,3,4, then
    :foreach i in="10.$A.$A.0/24" do={:put $i} will print 16 network prefixes.
    Currently behaviour of '.' operator  with an empty array value is
    undefined.
*) console - fixed bug introduced in 3.4. Concatenation of strings
    yielded array, so ("A" . "A") was A;A, now ("A" . "A") results in "AA",
    as before;

*) console - compatibility syntax for 'find' and 'print where' expressions.
    If = or != operation has as the left operand name of item property, without
    leading '$', then right hand operand is parsed according to the syntax
    of that propery. This also adds back command line completions. Example:
      /ip address print where interface=ether1
    ether1 was parsed as a reference to variable "ether1", now it is parsed as
    name of the interface, like in version 2.9;
*) backup - proceed on read errors, log errors with topics "backup, critical";
*) console - allow commands like 'monitor' and '/tool fetch' in scheduler
    scripts;

New features commentary:

*) installation and boot of USB sticks/drives with RouterOS
   Netinstall can now install RouterOS on USB drives.  Minitowers
   and rackmounts with bios's that support USB boot can now easily boot
   from USB flash/hard drives.  The USB flash sticks are available in
   most electronics stores and are a suitable replacement from IDE
   flashdrives and CF with IDE adaptors.  It might be advisable to find
   a secure place to connect the USB stick so that it can't be knocked
   off easily.  As of v3rc2,there is one problem that you should not
   have a hard drive with RouterOS in the same system or the boot
   program on the USB drive will find the hard drive with RouterOS and
   probably boot that instead of the RouterOS on the USB stick -- we
   will work on fixing this.
*) RFC 2217 serial server TCP to serial
   Now you can set the serial port to RFC 2217 server mode and
   you can use a remote application to communicate/control the serial device.
   Find out more about this protocol at http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc2217.html
