2853 efficient.

2861 custom post types as you see fit.

2863 product views in WooCommerce, making it easier for customers to share your

2866 they are on, and how that page relates to the other pages in your site
2867 hierarchy with improved schema.org microdata for breadcrumbs.

2869 right from custom post type single and archive views.

2876 you can quickly and safely embed.

2878 without making you refresh the entire page. Live previews, yes indeed.
2879
2880 Bug Fixes:
2881
2882 * Comments: we fixed a mistake where a comment subscription checkbox appeared
2883 on custom post types — despite the fact you couldn’t actually subscribe to
2884 those types of comments. Our bad.
2885 * Contact Forms: we fixed a bug where the telephone field (which can only be
2886 added manually) rendered incorrectly — breaking some forms in the process.
2887 * General: we blocked direct access to the Jetpack_IXR_Client class which
2888 caused fatal PHP errors in some server setups.
2889 * Shortcodes: we removed the frameborder attribute in the YouTube embed code.
2890 It was deprecated in HTML 5.
2891 * Unminified responsive-videos.min.js in order to address a false positive
2892 virus alert in ClamAV. Expect it to be re-minified in 4.0.3 once we resolve
2893 the issue with ClamAV.
