Now that SharePoint 2013 Preview finally got released, I am wondering - what is new in the Foundation-edition of the 2013-release?

I am hoping for some sort of light CMS-functionality for simple/small websites, but it doesn't seem to come with that yet...

    Yeah, I've read that once earlier. But I still think it is unclear which features only live in Server and which features also comes with Foundation.. -Guess we'll just have to wait for more info on that..

What is SharePoint 2013 (Preview) - A new version of Microsoft famous Collaboration portal called SharePoint. The version adds few new exciting features such as Social Feed,SharePoint Apps and cross-site publishing. Development Changes –

 In SharePoint 2013 Microsoft Introduced a new Cloud App Model for designing Apps for SharePoint. Apps for SharePoint are self-contained pieces of functionality that extend the capabilities of a SharePoint website. You can use HTML, CSS, JavaScript and protocols like the Open Data protocol (OData), and OAuth to communicate with SharePoint using Apps.  Tools – SharePoint 2013 has Introduced new Tools for App development. Visual Studio 2012 now lets you develop apps for SharePoint and apps for Office. In addition a new web-based tools called “Napa” Office 365 Development Tools were introduced for developing apps.  No more Sandbox solutions. SharePoint 2013 sandboxed solutions are deprecated. So all we got is the New App model and the Old SharePoint Farm solutions. check out SharePoint 2013 – Apps Vs Farm solutions

This is a good website with many differences between the two, at the bottom you can select to see other differences between foundation , server std and server ent.

Good luck in finding a comparability check for 2013 as its only the beta version thats out at the moment but you can see from 2010 the differences to expect from 2013
