All bugfixes are included in the

Quests should no longer repeat, at least it should be really unlikely now, this time for sure.
Some effects of doomspells will no longer be activated with wands of spark!
Wielding a 2-hander while wielding two weapons no longer deletes the weapon on the arm.
Items which cure stunning no longer automatically identified (a fix in set_stun).
Throwing now displays the ability to take the Oath of Iron properly.
Plasma Hounds gain IM_FIRE, as they're plasma breathers.
Turns now displayed in character screen.
Stores should now order items properly.
Fixed error in Oath of Iron martial art damage.
Dragon breathing now lets you know if you don't have any essences.
Stair creation will only create down staircases for ironman characters.
'C'haracter screen changed slightly, now correctly displays cancelled flags, and emphasizes immunities. Temporary resists are also included.
Burgling an item should now report the correct quantity of items recieved. This may do funny things to items that change names when they are in your inventory.
Mushrooms should sometimes break in traps now.
Heroism will now always cancel fear.

Gameplay changes only appear in the unofficial beta version of the game.

Harder quests should now be harder, and getting quest monsters that are deeper than expected will net fewer of them.
Device penalty is now 33% for Oath of Iron characters.
Worn (non-artifact) equipment is now easier to activate.
Scale mana/HP when changing wielded objects.
Decrease Oath of Iron requirement to 25, and slingers get it at the same point as everyone else.
Penalty to skills starts at (power - 10), rather than (power - 8) * 8 / 10.

Rings of Ice, Fire, Electricity, Acid, and Venom now have EASY_KNOW -- this way their resistances will show up on character screen properly, and since they're never cursed, it shouldn't be a big deal.
Mushrooms of Metamorphasis will no longer always change race after first use, though it will happen more often than with first consumption.

Martial arts rewritten; now they have flexible numbers of blows, critical like melee weapons, use deadliness (karate uses dexterity) and give different bonuses (wrestling gives str, hp, tunnel; karate gives dex, speed, and stealth). Damage should be a little higher than it was.
Cap on melee skills now eliminated from casters -- now instead, it is reduced by a fraction (1/3 for oathed, 1/6 for non). For priests it is 1/6 for blugeoning, 1/2 for sharp, and for paladins it is no reduction for blugeoning and 1/3 for sharp.
Allowed for gauntlets to have slays and brands which should apply to martial arts attacks.
Power of a brand increases with skill -- damage bonus ranges from 1/3 to 3/2 the previous value.

Perception grants infravision to make shadowstalkers more playable (at 10, 30, 50 and 70).
Oathbound burglars get "Darkness" talent (mapped to "[-").
Oathbound Burglars pick locks, chests, disarm, and use devices just fine in the dark.
Infravision maps interesting terrain.
Light Sources of Darkness added (useful for shadowstalkers), cursed lanterns less common.

No longer gain XP for casting new spells (it's like learning the entire second book at once).

Home duplication/transmogrification bug.
Town graphics bug.
Quit-without-saving-or-giving-error-messages (I suggest you turn autosave to the most frequent setting).
Jeweled mimics recall.
Fundamental errors in the new display routines.
