I would say that to this point there haven't been any features publicly announced (I may be wrong on this) other than what Ken Levy has hinted in a few messages here. For example, he mentioned something about the SYS() function in a message to George Tasker a few days ago. What I try to do is track any threads where Ken participates and in that way I can find out about what's "in the oven" not just with VFP8 but with VFP in general.
For converting reports to PDF, you can do that right now in several ways. Take a look at this personal web site from one UT member:
