Major new features

New Blocks feature, allowing blocks to be added and moved around on course pages (thanks to Jon Papaioannou, Eloy Lafuente and others!)
New RSS System allows Forums and Glossaries (and later other modules) to publish RSS feeds (Thanks, Eloy!)
Mediaplugin filter now supports auto-embedding of Quicktime, Flash, and Windows Media files.
New languages: Latvian, Norwegian Primary School,

Other new features

It is now possible to pass arguments to files in the Files section. This allows some fancier HTML and Flash in resources.
Most internal HTML links within forums and resources are now preserved during backup/restores
$CFG->forceloginforprofiles can be set to prevent guests from seeing user profiles.
New resource type "Directory" will display a whole directory of uploaded files
User pictures can now be easily deleted from the profile editing page
Talking in Chat now appears in the main logs.
HIdden sections in courses can now be completely hidden from students (course setting)
Improvements to text inside graphs for some non-English languages by using Unicode. Try adding a Unicode font to your Moodle named lib/default.ttf.
All students can now be unenrolled with one button
Subscribers to forums can now be manually subscribed or unsubscribed in groups
Better handling of some eurpean characters in filenames and usernames
Resources that are files (uploaded, or webpages) now show the relevant icon on the course page
Feedback notices for a hidden assignment aren't mailed out until it's unhidden
Sessions are now stored privately in the Moodle data directory - this makes Moodle work better on clusters, and solves some session timeout problems when using Moodle on shared web hosts
Expanded support for importing Blackboard quizzes

Bug fixes

Too many to list here!
+ Lots of small things were fixed in all areas, generally improving appearance and robustness.

Don't forget to look at some of the many new modules under development!
