There are some really cool new things in Extbase that should be 
mentioned. I do not know all for sure but the following ones are surely 
merged yet:

1) Short Hand Syntax for Validators.
@validate myext:MyValidator instead of @validate 
Tx_Myext_Validation_Validator_MyValidator

2) Backported FLOW3 Debugger
Used via static method Tx_Extbase_Utility_Debugger::var_dump($var);

According to this feature beeing merged the Debug View Helper in Fluid 
has been changed too.

3) Dependency Injections like in FLOW3

Instead of using a method for DI just use an @inject annotation on 
properties.
/**
  * @inject Tx_MyExt_Domain_Repository_FooRepository
  */
protected $fooRepository;

4) You can now use any controller for the scheduler.

These are the new features so far. Maybe I forgot some.
Someone else should say something to the bugs that have been fixed.
Felix Oertel or Stefan Neufeind surely know a lot more.
