But you monitor the mailing list. So you know what's changed and what
not. Besides, uploading the docs on a daily basis is not that easy
(well, it's easy, but the docs are 19MB big!).

Most features aren't 'visible', so screenshots won't help. For example,
the new cache isn't visible, speed improvements aren't visible, ...

I'll release 1.2.1 as soon as Subversion 1.2.1 is out. Which will be
some time this week, don't know when exactly.

About the changelog: yes, it seems bigger. But the changelog for 1.2 is
far from complete, and most changes (which required a *lot* of work)
aren't in there because they're mentioned in the Subversion changelog
(e.g. locking, new API's, ...).
Also, most changes for 1.2 are explained in one sentence, but took weeks
to implement, test and get them working. So that's why the changelog for
1.2 isn't that big.
