Yes, DI container and corresponding change in configuration philosophy is a big 
one. The second most important thing is lifecycle handling improvements 
(listeners based on custom annotations). And there's a whole set of 
improvements and new features based on these 2 major new capabilities.

Yeah, we split the docs part (generated from docbook probably via Jenkins, and 
then published to the site) and the site pages published via CMS. BTW you may 
remember that Dzmitry did some initial CMS work - 
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/cayenne/site/cms/trunk/ , so we can probably 
start publishing that piece almost right away.
