Given that the release of SP2 for XP is not far off, or so I'm told, is
there a list somewhere of what's new and/or updated in it?

A set of documents that you can find at
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=7bd948d7-b791-40b6-8364-685b84158c78&DisplayLang=en

You have to download the files at the bottom individually - the download
link on the right is not working. I suggest the zip file at the bottom,
which is all the others, zipped into one
