Here's what I have for what's new; if you know of major things missing, please
reply :-)
The major changes include:
* A new maven plugin that runs JCasGen (see tools documentation for how to
configure and use this)
* Binary serialization has been documented.
* New kinds of compressed binary serialization that compress the data
significantly
and one form that supports unequal source/target type systems
* Some "bulk" methods for removing Feature Structures from Indexes
* A new facility for specifying parameter settings for collections of
annotators, that uses properties files
* The DocumentAnalyzer utility was enhanced with a patch from the community
to support reading CASes in various formats
