Hi

The main things probably are:
* Some new effects (latest ones are Invert, Sharpen, Looking glass)
* Improved other effects (e.g. presentwindows shows app icons, round&smooth 
shadows)
* Support for automatic ordering and dependancy checking for effects
* Beginnings of new compositing (aka desktop effects) config module, to easily 
enable compositing and some common effects.
* Automatic fallbacks, e.g. fallback to XRender when OpenGL compositing fails
* Probably something else I don't remember right now ;-)

If you still want a screencast, I could try to do something tomorrow. How long 
should it be? And you've got anything I should definitely show?
