2.6.0 () -
- TW #2554 Waiting is now an entirely "virtual" concept, based on a task's
'wait' property and the current time. This is reflected in the +WAITING
tag, and in the now-deprecated `waiting` status. Please upgrade filters
and other automation to use `+WAITING` or `wait.after:now` instead of
`status:waiting`, as support will be dropped in a future version.
TaskWarrior no longer explicitly "unwaits" a task, so the "unwait' verbosity
token is no longer available.

'due.by:eod', which it would not otherwise. It also works with
whole units like days, e.g. 'add test due:2021-07-17' would not match

- Waiting is now an entirely "virtual" concept, based on a task's
'wait' property and the current time. Task is consiered "waiting" if its
wait attribute is in the future. TaskWarrior no longer explicitly
"unwaits" a task (the wait attribute is not removed once its value is in
the past), so the "unwait' verbosity token is no longer available.
This allows for filtering for tasks that were waiting in the past
intervals, but are not waiting anymore.

Newly Deprecated Features in Taskwarrior 2.6.0
- The 'PARENT' and 'CHILD' virtual tags are replaced by 'TEMPLATE' and 'INSTANCE'.
- The 'waiting' status is now deprecated. We recommend using +WAITING virtual tag
or wait-attribute based filters, such as 'wait.before:eow' instead.
