We're getting closer to the first beta release of MariaDB 5.3 and several of the new features have been documented in the Knowledgebase and linked to from this page:

What I don't know is if there are any features which have either:
1. not been documented in the Knowledgebase at all,
I've found several missing things and added them. I've also split the list into groups by function.
If you have worked on 5.3, please review the above page to make sure the items you worked on are present and fully documented. If they aren't please document them in the Knowledgebase and add them to the above page (or send me enough information about them so that I can document them). If they are present, but inadequately documented, please add what is missing or let me know what is missing. Don't worry about your documentation being perfect, I will clean it up. If you need any help, please contact me via email or on IRC.
There is lots of optimizer stuff without adequate documentation. Here, optimizer team should provide info. Some of it is already out there. For instance, could you check out these slides http://s.petrunia.net/scratch/new-qep-features-in-mariadb-fosdem2011.odp http://en.oreilly.com/mysql2011/public/schedule/detail/19899 http://en.oreilly.com/mysql2011/public/schedule/detail/20238 and see if they have enough info to document index_merge/sort-intersect and "Fair choice between index_merge and range"?
