Documentation of fixes? Options

[Caedwyr]

I'm currently planning on playing through BGII again, and I was wondering if there is any documentation of the fixes for Baldurdash - WeiDU. I understand that it contains many of fixes from the original Baldurdash, but I also am given to understand that it contains additional fixes and possibly some removal of questionable fixes. Also, is the Baldurdash Game Text update included?

Thanks for any help you can provide.

Yes, Caedwyr, the text update is included.
