 - Introduced Build Fan Speed at Height, Build Fan Speed at Layer, and Build Volume Fan Number to control extra fans, like those controlling the build volume separately
 - Added the "Extra Infill Lines to Support Skins" setting and other improvements to help make printing over sparse infill more reliable, contributed by @Hello1024
 - Significant UI speed improvements interacting with custom settings especially if your printer has multiple extruders
-- Introduced an Anycolor option for the UltiMaker S and F series enabling you to print with any UltiMaker color loaded in the material station that is compatible with the printjobs. Note that it’s only compatible with the latest version of the firmware (for Factor 4 >=10.1  and for S-series >=9.0)
+- Introduced an Anycolor option for the UltiMaker S and F series enabling you to print with any UltiMaker color loaded in the material station that is compatible with the printjobs. Note that it’s only compatible with the latest version of the firmware (for Factor 4 >=10.1  and for S-series >=9.0, and it does not include the UltiMaker S3)
 - Added an option to Export Package for Technical Support to the help menu, it includes a project file with the settings but also the logs
 - Improved the way materials are selected when using multiple extruders to print the build plate adhesion so it doesn't default to the first extruder but the best option instead.
 - Improved processes so not only installers but also executables inside installers are signed for Windows
-- Introduced an error message that informs when a file is too big to slice
+- Introduced improvements to how models and projects with large file size (500MB) slice. A message was also added to inform the user when a file size is too big to slice.
 - Made it possible for multiple Engine plugins that are registered to the same slot to be used together. (Only for Modify plugins, and Plugins will be addressed alphabetically)
-- Moved the Gradual Flow Engine Plug-in to CuraEngine instead
+- Moved the Gradual Flow Engine Plug-in to CuraEngine, this also resolved slicing crashes when the plugin was used in combination with large number of smaller models that were printed at once.
 - Improved and expanded the Insert at Layer Change post-processing script, contributed by @GregValiant
 - Improved and expanded the Time Lapse Post Processing script, contributed by @GregValiant
 - Added a registry entry to provide the option to silent uninstall on Windows, contributed by @Rotzbua

 - Fixed a bug that prevented the "Sync materials with printers" page from displaying when accessed immediately after starting Cura or signing in
-- Fixed a bug where reloading an updated model would result in not all the duplicates of the model being updated
+- Fixed a bug where reloading an updated model would not update the duplicates of the model on the build plate
 - Fixed a bug that showed incompatible materials when switching between printers with a different filament diameter.

-* Bugs resolved after the first Beta
+* Bugs resolved since the Beta release
 - Spiralize outer contour no longer adds unnecessary seams to the model
 - When coasting is enabled the printhead no longer drops down 
-- Updated the strategy for sharpest corner - smart hiding seam location combination
-- Fixed a bug where long scarf seams and short scarf seam steps would result in the seam being moved outward
-- Fixed a bug where seam acceleration and deceleration were not working 
+- Fixed coasting strategy so it's only applied to outer/inner walls, and not to skin, top-bottom, or infill
+- Fixed wiping direction when printing a single wall
+- Improved wiping in combination with the scarf seam
+- Significantly improved the strategy for sharpest corner - smart hiding seam location combination
+- Fixed a bug where long scarf seam length and short scarf seam steps would result in the seam being moved outward
+- Fixed a bug where seam acceleration and deceleration around seam were not working
 - Fixed a bug where infill was wrongly removed from narrow spaces 
 - Triple-clicking values and searches that you entered now has you select everything so you can edit it in the field similar to other desktop applications
 - Updated dependencies and improved how unwanted and unused binaries are excluded from the building process. 
 - Added Eazao material for the new Eazao printers
+- Updated the urls schemes to make them more robust when attempting to open files in Cura
+- Retract before outer wall now works correctly on all layers
+- Resolved top reported crashes coming in via the analyzing tool Sentry
+- Removed an unwanted Z-hop when starting a new layer
+- Layer starts are more visible in the print preview with the scarf seam
+- Made the X to close floating and pop up windows a little bigger
+- Improved the visuals of printers with a build plate texture, they now render more consistently regardless of zoom or angle of view
+- The UI now displays correctly on Wayland, with this fix we noticed some performance drop compared to X11

-* Known issues
-- This second beta introduces a change that affects the UI so please use buttons, dropdowns, menus, and flows. We hope we did this correctly but it is a tricky change. If you see the crash please report it to us, and we will also see it show up in our crash tracking tool. 
-- There is a slight regression in terms of seam alignment in different strategies we hope to resolve before stable
-- We see an increase in micro-segments in the outer wall, which we hope to resolve before stable 
-- We see rare cases of Cura crashing after opening project files with custom extruders or printer settings than the printer that is already loaded
