** The function 'display-buffer-in-major-side-window' no longer exists.
It has been renamed as internal function 'window--make-major-side-window',
however applications should instead call 'display-buffer-in-side-window'
(passing the SIDE and SLOT parameters as elements of ALIST). This approach
is backwards-compatible with versions of Emacs in which the old function
exists. See the node "Displaying Buffers in Side Windows" in the ELisp
manual for more details.

** The function 'thing-at-point' behaves as before Emacs 26.1.
The behavior of 'thing-at-point' when called with argument 'list' has

and strings as a potential list. This change is now reverted, and
'thing-at-point' behaves like it did before Emacs 26.1.
To cater to use cases where comments and strings are to be ignored
when looking for a list, the function 'list-at-point' now takes an
optional argument to do so.
