For Visual Explain, I believe there were some small bug fixes, but
nothing major.
Administrator has been completely rewritten in Java; the old one was
written in tcl/tk. However, the Java Administrator's functionality is
almost identical to the tcl version.
Control Center is a new tool, and it is still in beta stage. It is also
written in Java.

Tom Lane would be the best person to ask, but AFAIK, most (if not all)
of the backports are from 7.4.

Great! I'll have a look at them very shortly. I'm not sure though if I
want to release a 7.4 update for Fedora Core 1, due to data
incompatibility reasons. We usually don't jump major versions within a
distro, but perhaps this rule can be relaxed for Fedora. In any case,
the 7.4 packages will go into Fedora Core 2.
