+Improved default backend selection
+----------------------------------
+
+The default backend no longer must be set as part of the build
+process.  Instead, at run time, the builtin backends are tried in
+sequence until one of them imports.
+
+Headless linux servers (identified by the DISPLAY env not being defined)
+will not select a GUI backend.
+
+Cyclic colormaps
+----------------
+
+Two new colormaps named 'twilight' and 'twilight_shifted' have been
+added.  These colormaps start and end on the same color, and have two
+symmetric halves with equal lightness, but diverging color. Since they
+wrap around, they are a good choice for cyclic data such as phase
+angles, compass directions, or time of day. Like *viridis* and
+*cividis*, *twilight* is perceptually uniform and colorblind friendly.
