There are still a lot of time to kill for before we get to wander in the world of Skyrim, and this list should make any Elder Scrolls fan day.
Looking through at the skills though, should we say that a lot of them are not making any sense?
For instance, the Dunmer have no bonuses for One Handed. As it has been suggested, Stealth, Destruction, Conjuration, Illusion, One Handed, and Light Armor should have been the bonuses for the Dunmer.
Anyhow, you can take a look at the list below.

boy, the really screwed argonians on this one
removed their poison resistance (way to respect the lore) AND they dont even have a skill bonus in a combat skill. every other race does have atleast 5 points in archery, one/two handed or destruction

bretons actually don’t have an offensive skill bonus either. You’re right, I think Bethesda should’ve stuck to the lore more for these. I hope that these are false but I doubt they are.

Seems okay to me, always figured -
Bretons whose support skill bonuses make up for weaker physiques
Argonians as sneaky thieves first and foremost
Imperials have +10 restoration? Only thing wierd to me. Not complaining however, Imperials now make for ideal “Paladin” Builds where Bretons used too.
And i like that Nords have a speech bonus in there homeland though i think it could even be +10.

To be honest, Argonians should have Archery as opposed to Alteration, but meh.

I like orc very overly combat go orc. I don’t like the fact argonians lost poison resist.
But skills ok they got high stealth and light armor plus they have good stealing skills so money.
