We've just started our beta testing process for Movable Type 3.12, which will be a minor update to the current version. Here's a list of some key new features and fixes.

* Faster rebuilds due to caching some data
* More robust upgrade script for PostgreSQL users, dynamic pages users
* Create .htaccess file upon enabling dynamic pages
* <MTBlogCommentCount> now ignores unapproved cmts
* More documentation of mt.cfg options
* Default to use full entry body in RSS feeds
* New template's dynamic/static setting is set correctly
* Duplicate sibling category names are prohibited
* Support for binary columns in PostgreSQL

Fixed:
* <MTEntryModifiedDate> (was returning creation date)
* Error reporting for template & plugin errors
* mod_perl bug: "the uploaded file was too large"
* Compatibility issues with perl versions before 5.6.0
* Internationalization problems
* Amp-encoding problem in comment preview
* Timezone was wrong when posting via Atom
* Scheduled posting would only post one of many new entries on an archive page

As soon as we have more information on the scheduled release date and when Professional Network members will have access to a build, I'll post more information to the list.

More info to come!
