The survival guide for addons from wow interface. This will be updated over the next few days.

If you see any of them that have been updated that they haven't marked as such already, please feel free to email them at [email protected] with the link to where it has been updated.

Here is the details of the major Lua API change :

Basically Blizzard have implemented a server based throttle on addon communications. As I understand it an addon can no longer talk on the addon whisper channel otr any hidden addon channels. They now have to register a talk using prefixs. It's all discussed in the 2 threads above.

Since this is a major patch I'll be uploading a copy of the survival guide I wrote for the US Mac Tech Support forums. Watch for it

Someone is tasked with tossing a box full of cats (all wearing turtlenecks) into this room. If none of the systems catch fire within 30 minutes, testing is complete. Someone else must remove the cats. All have iPods." (http://community.livejournal.com/tec...t/2018070.html)
