I wholeheartedly agree with everything Alessandro wrote, but I need to add one remark: Almost all features that work in 1.4.x are working better, faster and more stable in 1.5.x. The UI has also seen major improvements.


Plus, most new features are already stable as well, except for things like footnotes or tables.
