+* [Rails] The default location for compass extensions has moved from
+  `vendor/plugins/compass/extensions` to `vendor/plugins/compass_extensions`.
+* Global reset no longer automatically resets the *:focus. This allows browsers to
+  use their default :focus styles which is considered a best practice. If you wish
+  to reset :focus styles simply include this in your stylesheets:
+  `*:focus { @include reset-focus; }`
