I think there will be a lot of changes, but mainly small details that
are nice for application programmers as well as small 'niceties'. I
don't really expect that much 'breathtaking new features'. Altivec
support and native TCP/IP is probably the most important pieces.
Mosnet is available now and seems to work well even if it's a bit
slow and primitive, and altivec support is mainly of interest for
programmers.. so I don't really see why people feel a need to wait so
much for 1.5. I'm sure it will be nice in many ways, but I doubt it
will be such a radical difference from 1.4.5 in daily use. Which is
fine with me, 1.4.5 is nice.
