Beta 2 - what is new?

Did anybody find out what we should look for in terms of changes/fixes in
beta 2 of OOo/2 2.4?

Here is what I was interested in:

Improvements :-)
- zoom selection 'optimal', 'page width' and 'entire page'  work now in
impress (did not work in 2.0)

Not yet :-(
- Text drag and drop does not work (no change). This is a shortcomming IMHO.
And it could be a mjor selling point if it was as nicely done and integrated
with the system as in the mozilla apps (for instance). Draging text out of
SeaMonkey into a OOo writer document would really be nice.
- No drag-and-copy in impress. copy and paste needed whenever you need to
duplicate a text frame or any other object. Makes impress pretty much
infeasible for working efficiently.
- None of the known limitations have been removed (eg. sending documents as
email)
- No LateX export
-...

I understand that not everything can be implemented given the severly limited
resources of serenity. But without mouse handling of text (at least within
OOo) it can hardly be considered a complete office package.

Cheers
Andreas
