    2.9 (2025/12/01)

    Bug fixes
    * Allow linebreak between a non-glyph box and CJK characters (#690). This fix partly restores the functionality of v. 2.7.
    * Fix and document the Josa selection function in Korean language module (#691).
    * Suppress orphan character in CJK languages (#693). Orphan Character here means a paragraph whose last line contains single character only.
    * Issue \iflanguageloaded (and related) tests earlier so packages can be loaded conditionally (#696).
    * Fix \xpg@loaded missing the main language in the preamble.

    Documentation improvements
    * Document the previously hidden Greek commands \greektoday and \Greektoday (part of #695).
