<p>Now these tools have been overhauled to make them easier to find, to get a
-bigger panorama canvas, and to make create space for extra parameters and new
-features in the pipeline such as the upcoming <em>Layout mode</em>. Switching
-'modes' is more intuitive, with a tab for each that shows just the 'actions'
-relevant to that mode, hitting <em><F11></em> goes full-screen to release
-more space for the preview canvas itself.</p>
+bigger panorama canvas, and to create space for new features in the pipeline
+such as the upcoming <em>Layout mode</em>. Switching 'modes' is more intuitive,
+with a tab for each that shows just the 'actions' relevant to that mode, the
+<F11> key enables full-screen viewing of the preview.</p>
-<p>The Hugin main window can now also go full-screen <em><F11></em>,
-useful for manually editing control points.</p>
+<p>There are other usability-related changes; the <em>Hugin main window</em>
+can also be viewed full-screen with <F11>; more photo EXIF metadata is
+displayed in the Images tab; a list of recent projects is available in the
+<em>File menu</em>; plus there has been a general clean-up of text in the GUI
+and a number of updates to the manual.</p>
<h3>Autocrop</h3>
<p>Hugin is great for stitching hand-held panoramas, but these need careful
-cropping to ensure the entire canvas is filled and there are no missing bits.
-The <em>Fast Preview window</em> now has an <em>Autocrop</em> button that does
-all this for you automatically - Just click and the crop rectangle will be
-resized to use the maximum possible area covered by your photos.</p>

+window</em> now has an <em>Autocrop</em> button that does all this for you

+largest possible area covered by your photos.</p>
<h3>Deghosting</h3>
-Merged gsoc2009_deghosting branch.
-Added options for hugin_hdrmerge to GUI
-<p></p>
+<p>One of the advanced Hugin features is to merge bracketed photos using
+<em>exposure fusion</em> or <em>HDR merging</em> - This is done automatically
+when stitching as necessary.</p>
+<p>When people or objects move during a bracketed sequence, 'ghosts' appear in
+the result. Another Summer of Code project has now been integrated that both
+enables <em>HDR deghosting</em> in the GUI and provides an experimental
+<em>deghosting_mask</em> tool for <em>exposure fusion</em> deghosting with
+enfuse.</p>

<h3>Languages</h3>
-<p>The Hugin application is translated into twenty languages, most of these
-translations have been updated for this release.</p>
+<p>With the addition of Finnish, the Hugin application is now translated into
+twenty-one languages, most of the translations have been updated for this
+release.</p>
<h3>Other improvements</h3>
- Update manual to approximately 2010.0.0 level
+<p>This release also has the usual incremental improvements: The default size
+of the image cache has increased in line with modern computers, so existing
+Hugin users may want to check or reset their <em>Preferences</em> to suit, the
+<em>About dialog</em> has been extended to show a full list of Hugin
+contributors, and there have been many fixes for minor bugs and annoyances.</p>
