+* `Array#sum` compat with Ruby 2.4's native method.
+
+ Ruby 2.4 introduces `Array#sum`, but it only supports numeric elements,
+ breaking our `Enumerable#sum` which supports arbitrary `Object#+`.
+ To fix, override `Array#sum` with our compatible implementation.
+
+ Native Ruby 2.4:
+
+ %w[ a b ].sum
+ # => TypeError: String can't be coerced into Fixnum
+
+ With `Enumerable#sum` shim:
+
+ %w[ a b ].sum
+ # => 'ab'
+
+ We tried shimming the fast path and falling back to the compatible path
+ if it fails, but that ends up slower even in simple causes due to the cost
+ of exception handling. Our only choice is to override the native `Array#sum`
+ with our `Enumerable#sum`.

+* `ActiveSupport::Duration` supports ISO8601 formatting and parsing.
+
+ ActiveSupport::Duration.parse('P3Y6M4DT12H30M5S')
+ # => 3 years, 6 months, 4 days, 12 hours, 30 minutes, and 5 seconds
+
+ (3.years + 3.days).iso8601
+ # => "P3Y3D"
+
+ Inspired by Arnau Siches' [ISO8601 gem](https://github.com/arnau/ISO8601/)
+ and rewritten by Andrey Novikov with suggestions from Andrew White. Test
+ data from the ISO8601 gem redistributed under MIT license.
+
+ (Will be used to support the PostgreSQL interval data type.)

+
+* `Cache#fetch(key, force: true)` forces a cache miss, so it must be called
+ with a block to provide a new value to cache. Fetching with `force: true`
+ but without a block now raises ArgumentError.
+
+ cache.fetch('key', force: true) # => ArgumentError
+
+ *Santosh Wadghule*
+
+* `ActiveSupport::Duration` supports weeks and hours.
+
+ [1.hour.inspect, 1.hour.value, 1.hour.parts]
+ # => ["3600 seconds", 3600, [[:seconds, 3600]]] # Before
+ # => ["1 hour", 3600, [[:hours, 1]]] # After
+
+ [1.week.inspect, 1.week.value, 1.week.parts]
+ # => ["7 days", 604800, [[:days, 7]]] # Before
+ # => ["1 week", 604800, [[:weeks, 1]]] # After
+
+ This brings us into closer conformance with ISO8601 and relieves some
+ astonishment about getting `1.hour.inspect # => 3600 seconds`.
+
+ Compatibility: The duration's `value` remains the same, so apps using
+ durations are oblivious to the new time periods. Apps, libraries, and
+ plugins that work with the internal `parts` hash will need to broaden
+ their time period handling to cover hours & weeks.

* Fix behavior of JSON encoding for `Exception`.
