For the 1.4 public announcement I would like to make a page similar to the
release page that Blender uses:

http://www.blender.org/development/release-logs/blender-250/

I scanned through all logs between 1.2 and 1.4 and for CS I found the
following major changes:

Crystal Space:

- Walktest demo cleaned up a lot.
- Easier api to create meshes from code.
- Thing mesh is now deprecated. Use genmesh.
- Python/java bindings are modularized.
- New translator plugin.
- Totally rewritten and improved bullet physics plugin.
- Many improvements to the lighter2 utility.
- New terrain2 plugin.
- Documentation updates.
- New collection concept to replace the old and badly
  implemented region concept.
- New animesh plugin.
- New speex plugin.
- New 'openal' plugin.
- New collada support.
- New svg loader.

CEL:

- Better camera and movement system.
- Support for creation python based property classes.
- Totally new messaging system.
- New phylosophy: don't use behaviours but instead implement
  everything using (custom) property classes.
- Support for dynamic and expression parameters in quest system.
- New steering and pathfinding property classes.

First. If you know of features in 1.4 that I missed and that were not in 1.2
the please tell me.

Second. For a few of these I will write a good description myself but
if you are the author (or feel otherwise inclined) of a module above then
can you send me a short description of the modules above? In particular
I think Xordan has a few modules on the list above :-)

For each of these modules I would also like to add a picture. This can
be a screenshot (or part of a screenshot). Or else a picture that describes
the feature in some way. If you happen to have something or can make something
then please send it to me too.

Greetings and thanks,
