+  o Minor bugfixes:
+    - When checking whether a hibernation period has fully elapsed, use
+      the amount of seconds we expect for that period instead of using
+      the new period that just started. This would cause an issue because
+      February is a really short month. Bugfix on 0.2.2.17-alpha;
+      fixes bug 3020.
