- Tracker integration: bugs, patches, support requests, feature
requests are now managed with the same table, and you can add more
trackers at will.

- Better search capabilities (including in forums).

- Better themability and themes (and it's easy to make your own).

- Better Customisation (you can locally override the Base.tab and/or
  other <language>.tab files).

- Better internationalisation (although it seems you're doing it for
  2.5 too).

- (Theoretically) Per-project MySQL databases, for the project
  websites.

- (Theoretically) Per-project Virtual Hosts.

  I may have forgotten something.  Please add anything else :-)

  Try to keep it to only i18n, please.  Otherwise, it's okay by me.
