+# What's new in babel 3.99
+
+2023-12-10
+
+## Fix
+
+Spurious space in some cases because of a missing %, a bug introduced
+in 3.98.
+
+## New locales
+
+There are two new locales: `chakma` and `lowgerman`.
+
+In addition, the following bare minimum locales have been added:
+
+* `aramaic`
+* `avestan`
+* `aymara`
+* `bashkir`
+* `bataktoba`
+* `bavarian`
+* `classicalmandaic`
+* `ingush`
+* `komi`
+* `lepcha`
+* `limbu`
+* `lineara`
+* `lu`
+* `makasar`
+* `samaritan`
+* `sinteromani`
+* `tainua`
+* `tangut`
+* `waray`
+
+Most of scripts in the Unicode basic plane are now covered with, at
+least, a minimal locale.
+
+Here is a sample, with `lualatex` and the Noto family:
+```tex
+\documentclass{article}
+
+\usepackage[bidi=basic]{babel}
+
+\usepackage{fontspec}
+\defaultfontfeatures{Renderer=Harfbuzz}
+\babelfont{rm}{NotoSerif-Regular.otf}
+\babelfont[chakma]{rm}{NotoSansChakma-Regular.otf}
+\babelfont[samaritan]{rm}{NotoSansSamaritan-Regular.otf}
+\babelfont[lepcha]{rm}{NotoSansLepcha-Regular.otf}
+\babelfont[lu]{rm}{NotoSansNewTaiLue-Regular.otf}
+\babelfont[tangut]{rm}{NotoSerifTangut-Regular.otf}
+\babelfont[aramaic]{rm}{NotoSansImperialAramaic-Regular.otf}
+\babelfont[avestan]{rm}{NotoSansAvestan-Regular.otf}
+\babelfont[bataktoba]{rm}{NotoSansBatak-Regular.otf}
