v1.2.2

Highlights

This is a patch release that includes bug fixes and enhancements.

• This is the final release of AngularJS Material prior to entering our
  Long Term Support (LTS) period.
• This release includes many accessibility and localization improvements to components like autocomplete,
  checkbox, datepicker, dialog, and fab speed dial.
• It fixes regressions with radio buttons in IE11 and with the datepicker modifying the model value (time)
  before a date is selected.
• A few long-standing issues with the fab speed dial have been fixed, significantly improving the UX of the
  component.
