hi...

we are tentatively going with the following three messages for the release 
announcement around PA2:

* Improved usability
	* enhanced touch functionality in contour
	* improvements to web browsing 
	* settings app
	* consistent interface for adding things to activities
	* bug fixing (bugzilla says 92 issues closed so far, with 48 open)

* Performance improvements
	* improvements in keyboard
	* faster listings of applications

* Recommendations

it will wrap up with an overview of availability, which will highlight the 
working partnership with Mer and the availability of Plasma Active on the 
various devices that it has been brought up on (archos, tegra2, etc..). the 
expansion of availability between PA1 and PA2 will be highlighted.

final para will be an invitation for participation and a hint that PA3 will be 
a more feature-focused release.


so .. what i need from all of you is this: 

lists and details of changes in PA2 that fit in the above 3 topics. e.g. "what 
has changed, exactly, in the web browser?", "what are the most significant 
fixes?", "what kind of numbers do we have for the faster, model-based 
listings?"

also please feel free to add new subtopics. i only listed two items under 
performance improvements, though i know there are more than that ;)

bullet point lists are good enough. i don't need full sentences/paragraphs 
(though those are also welcome ;) as i'll be putting this together into a 
coherent text next week.

which means i need this info by next week ;) ... tuesday at the latest please!
