Bug

[XSTR-423] - CGLIBEnhancedConverter "only one CAllback is registered"
[XSTR-448] - Cannot use "class" as an attribute alias
[XSTR-480] - XStream does not properly alias arrays of objects.
[XSTR-481] - @XStreamConverter hides @XStreamAsAttribute annotation, it seems.
[XSTR-489] - @XStreamConverter only takes implementations of Converter; should support SingleValueConverters too
[XSTR-493] - Unmarshaling fields with underscores results in exception when fields serialized as attributes instead of tags.
[XSTR-495] - FileStreamStrategy uses toString() of key as a file name that causes lots of problems
[XSTR-496] - Custom Enum converters for attributes do not work in 1.3
[XSTR-497] - getMungedConstructor in Sun14ReflectionProvider is unsafe
[XSTR-502] - ClassNotFoundException with writeReplace() classes
[XSTR-503] - JavaBeanConverter does not respect omitted javabean properties
[XSTR-504] - XmlHeaderAwareReader does not respect existing PushbackInputStream
[XSTR-508] - serialize/deserialize subtracts 1 day from Joda-Time LocalDate instances.
[XSTR-515] - Improve XStream's setClassLoader() method
[XSTR-521] - Typo in FAQ: "it's" vs. "its"
[XSTR-524] - Conversion of an object causes StackOverflowError
[XSTR-525] - JSON mall-format with JsonHierarchicalStreamDriver
[XSTR-529] - NullPointerException serializing an implicit list with NULL elements
[XSTR-536] - XStream silently ignores unknown elements
[XSTR-537] - xstream fails with xml-apis in the classpath

Improvement

[XSTR-55] - Ability to alias an entire package
[XSTR-434] - Strip root node generated JSON
[XSTR-485] - Check object references when deserializing
[XSTR-517] - Misc performance improvements (for detected HotSpots via profiler)
[XSTR-531] - add an option to hide system attributes (e.g. the class name) in the json

New Feature

[XSTR-507] - Advanced XStream.ID_REFERENCES marshal Mode, using nice id's from the bean if getId method found
[XSTR-519] - Add new annotation "XStreamInclude" for use by base classes to improve annotation processing when deserializing
[XSTR-535] - JSON w/o root element
