+<ul>
+<li><strong>Simplified contract format</strong>, making it easier to define interactions between unicorn and an observer</li>
+<li><strong>New tasks format</strong>, providing a more flexible way to sequence, mix and match observations</li>
+<li><strong>Performance</strong> improvements, with a new multithreaded architecture</li>
+<li>The ability to function as a <strong>servlet under more engines</strong>, including Jigsaw</li>
+<li>A <strong>localized UI</strong> (currently: English and French, as a demo)</li>
+<li>A brand new <strong>XML parser</strong> taking care of parsing tasks, contracts and observation responses</li>
+<li>Tons of <strong>bug fixes</strong></li>
+</ul>
