This is actually just a small portion of the current changelog for 3.2. As always, you don’t have to wait until release day to get the latest version as the project is available on Github. Just follow the link and clone the repository and you too can have the latest versions. For those who don’t want to use Github and would rather have the “Complete” zipped version… all I can say is soon. I’m aiming to get it done by the end of October but it all really just depends on how fast certain things can get finished. But hopefully it will be sooner rather than later.
