     22== Some highlights
     23 - New Input preferences, support for more than 3 mouse buttons as well as horizontal scroll wheel
     24 - Driver fixes: xHCI (much better USB3 compatibility), hda, intel_extreme, NVMe (experimental and broken, we may disable it by default), network?, i2c touchpads/touchscreens if that gets merged in time
     25 - Installation smoothening: better EFI integration (still incomplete), optional packages in Installer, improved DriveSetup (shows partition used space, shows encrypted volumes, etc)
     26 - Probably something about haikuports and stats about new and updated packages too?
     27 - DeskBar improvements (new mini mode, better scaling, ...)
     28 - HiDPI displays compatibility (did we make some progress on that since beta1?)
     29 - Lowered memory requirements (to be checked - how low can we go now?)
     30 - Security fixes (syscall audit, smap/smep violations fixing, ...)
