The release has many bug fixes, translation updates, a new plugin obs (opacity, brightness, saturation) and the reworked Animation plugin.

There is still more exciting things to come in near future, a project codenamed “NOMAD”, watch out for more details as they emerge.

    There are problems with the blur and static-application-switcher plugins: both cause compiz to crash and be replaced by metacity. This is on openSUSE 11.0 (x86_64) with Nvidia (6100) drivers 173.14.12, and the X11:/compiz (not the X11/XGL one) repository (and after cleaning all traces of the older versions).

    Further, opening any QT4 application crashes compiz, returning session window-manager to metacity.
