 *   Rails initialization with initialize_on_precompile = false should set assets_dir *Santiago Pastorino*
 
+*   check_box helper with :disabled => true will generate a disabled hidden field to conform with the HTML convention where disabled fields are not submitted with the form.
+    This is a behavior change, previously the hidden tag had a value of the disabled checkbox.
+    *Tadas Tamosauskas*
+
 *   Add font_path helper method *Santiago Pastorino*
 
 *   Depends on rack ~> 1.4.0 *Santiago Pastorino*
