Sure. The changes were discussed on dev list [1] and include the following:
1. Collection's insert and set are separated.

2. Collection getEntry() method returns Entry class that holds object, its
record-level meta and key. This change triggered additional changes in
DocumentCache class to store Entries instead of objects.

3. As you noticed, Filer interface was modified and method writeRecord() returns
Record instead of boolean. This was done to allow Collection to cache just
written record, as it was done before with a plain object, and required meta
information to be returned. Also, as a side effect, it allows to store same
creation/modification time for the record in meta collection. The previously
returned boolean was only actually used in one Filer implementation, FSFiler,
but returned value was never checked by Collection anyway, so xml-rpc client
would never get any indication that something failed.

4. Filer's readRecord() method got an additional parameter to instruct it to
read record metadata only.
