This should hopefully make the now many options more
understandable.
+Plug-ins:
+
+ - BigTIFF: our TIFF plug-in now officially supports BigTIFF import and
+ export.
+ * Import was actually already working transparently if you had
+ a recent enough libtiff. Now the recent libtiff is enforced by
+ dependency requirements.
+ * Export support was added with a checkbox in the interactive dialog
+ and a new "bigtiff" argument in the "file-tiff-save" PDB
+ procedure.
+ * When an interactive export of ClassicTIFF fails for the explicit
+ reason of "Maximum TIFF file size exceeded", the export dialog is
+ raised again with a message proposing to try again as BigTIFF.
+ This allows because discoverability and understandibility of the
+ issue, while not forcing BigTIFF export (since it might not be
+ supported everywhere).
+
+Build:
+
+ - libtiff dependency's minimum required version bumped to 4.0.0.
