Thanks for taking the initiative here! I started something locally but I'll just pass the notes on here. (Partial list, will update later)

I thought it would be a good idea to have two "features" sections: "Users" and "Developers".
development enhancements: automated static analysis with PVS studio. That means we now have static analysis by coverity, clang-scan, clang ASan/UBSan, clint, luacheck, and PVS.
CTRL-H issue was fixed https://github.com/neovim/neovim/wiki/FAQ#my-ctrl-h-mapping-doesnt-work
UI developers: externalized 'tabline'.
- Every UI component that is externalized means that nvim can run faster.

upcoming highlights:

floating windows: [RFC] Floating windows in TUI and Remote UI neovim#6619
per-window background color: [RFC] allow window specific ui highlighting (currently only window background) neovim#6597
externalized cmdline: [RFC] allow external ui to draw cmdline neovim#6162
externalized 'cursorline'/'cursorcolumn' will allow 'cursorline' without a performance penalty
windows TUI: [WIP/RFC] Windows TUI neovim#6315
windows :terminal:
pre-built package (AppImage) for Linux: [RFC] Appimage neovim#6638

@justinmk
Did Pvs studio produce any bug fixes that we could mention?

mhinz · 2017-05-03T13:24:35Z

Maybe it could be mentioned that timer support is now on par with Vim. v0.1.7 wasn't able to handle self in timer callbacks: neovim/neovim#5529

justinmk · 2017-05-03T13:59:28Z

In general the features in the release notes should be checked.

Vim. v0.1.7
@mhinz is the version correct? Seems very old :/

mhinz · 2017-05-05T09:13:44Z

@timeyyy I meant that Neovim v0.2.0 is now on par with current Vim regarding timer support. The last Neovim release, v0.1.7, wasn't. :>
