## {{ site.pmd.date }} - {{ site.pmd.version }}
The PMD team is pleased to announce PMD {{ site.pmd.version }}.
This is a {{ site.pmd.release_type }} release.
{% tocmaker is_release_notes_processor %}
### New and noteworthy
#### Modified rules
* The Java rule {% rule java/bestpractices/UnusedPrivateField %} has a new property `ignoredFieldNames`.
The default ignores serialization-specific fields (eg `serialVersionUID`).
The property can be used to ignore more fields based on their name.
Note that the rule used to ignore fields named `IDENT`, but doesn't anymore (add this value to the property to restore the old behaviour).
