The Kubuntu people have posted a list of changes, that's something at least...

Where can I find such info for regular Ubuntu?

The screenshots sure didn't show many changes either...

The primary changes from Dapper have been the re-merging of changes
from Debian. Common to all variants, we have upgraded the kernel to
2.6.17. In Ubuntu, Gnome has been updated to 2.15.4 and GTK+ to 2.10.

This is SOP for the Ubuntu project. The first milestone for each development cycle is a resynch with Debian Sid and the inclusion of the latest development release of GNOME. They continually resynch with Sid and the GNOME dev branch until GNOME goes gold, at which point they freeze and spend about two months dedicated to fixing bugs and polishing the interface.

Same proven formula. It seems to be working.
