When I heard of the new release my first reaction was also "Where's the
change list?"

I understand that someone is reviewing a document someone else wrote, but I
don't know its content. From what I understand there were certain
performance optimizations found, particularly on Macintosh... there was a
situation where certain textfields in movieclips overlaying other things
had some "bleed" that was addressed (I didn't see steps-to-repro).... there
were some older scrolling handlings that were found *after* the public beta
that were addressed... that rare IE5.5/Win98 table handling that crashed
could be addressed in the player itself (in this, the technote caused more
problems than the problem itself ;-).... this is what I've been able to
pick up in conversation about changes.

There isn't a changelist yet, sorry, but from what I'm told there is some
type of document coming in the near future, if that general confirmation is
of any help.
