The Christmas release will basically be a snapshot of the 2006.0 Community tree (the one in /devel/2006.0 on the mirrors, so it includes several bugfixes and minor package updates since 2006.0's release) along with the GNOME 2.12 and OpenOffice.org 2.0 packages that have already been released through the Club urpmi media. It will also have some new graphical stuff with a Christmas theme, and if you do a fresh install, GNOME will be the default desktop (just the default package choice, KDE is still included of course).
