+  Features
+
+  - The op/do macro implementation has been rewritten
+    in Lisp:
+    - Substitution of the @1 notation to anonymous lambda
+      argument terms now leverages local macros, so that
+      it follows a correct code walk.
+    - Will not get stuck in an infinite loop if quoted
+      literals occur that contain circular structure.
+  - Meta expressions like @foo and @(bar) can now be used
+    in the dot position of a function call
+    - Example:
+      (macrolet ((sys:expr (x) ^(quote ,x)))
+        (list . @(a b c)))
+      -> (a b c)
+    - related to the op rewrite, which relies on it
+      to preserve the behavior of forms like (op fun . @1)
+      previously implemented in op itself.
+
+  Bugs
+
+  - Fixed a five-and-half year old bug in replace-str,
+    introduced between TXR 54 and 55. This affects other
+    operations such as (append "str1" "str2").
