           <ul>
+          
+            <li>A new toolchain (based on GCC 4.4.3), which generates better code, and can also now
+be used as a standalone cross-compiler, for people who want to build their stuff with
+<code>./configure &amp;&amp; make</code>. See
+docs/STANDALONE-TOOLCHAIN.html for the details. The binaries for GCC 4.4.0 are still provided,
+but the 4.2.1 binaries were removed.</li>
+
+            <li>Support for prebuilt static and shared libraries (docs/PREBUILTS.html), module
+exports and imports to make sharing and reuse of third-party modules much easier
+(docs/IMPORT-MODULE.html explains why).</li>
+
+            <li>A C++ STL implementation (based on STLport) is now provided as a helper module. It
+can be used either as a static or shared library (details and usage exemple under
+sources/android/stlport/README). <strong>Note:</strong> For now, C++ Exceptions and RTTI are still
+not supported.</li>
+
+            <li>Improvements to the <code>cpufeatures</code> helper library to deal with buggy
+kernel that incorrectly report they run on an ARMv7 CPU (while the device really is an ARMv6). We
+recommend developers that use it to simply rebuild their applications to benefit from it, then
+upload to Market.</li>
+
             <li>Adds support for native activities, which allows you to write completely native
             applications.</li>
 
             <li>Adds an EGL library that lets you create and manage OpenGL ES textures and
             services.</li>
 
-            <li>Provides an interface that lets you write a native text-to-speech engine.</li>
-
             <li>Adds native support for the following:

-                <li>audio APIs based on the OpenSL ES standard that support playback and recording
