Cataclysm lua changes

Hello

I have a beta key but I don't have the possibility to download much...
Since I don't want to be clueless when Cataclysm comes, and I cannot find any thread about it yet, I'm asking here for any known lua changes.

At the moment I know of the 'args' thing which means you can't use (...) anymore.

Any more major or minor stuff?

Thanks

This is not what it means (ellipsis can be used fine).
Keep an eye on this:

Also start up IRC and hop into

server : freenode.org
channels : #wowace
#wowuidev

These 2 IRC channels have most of the big names in the addon community hanging out in them at all times of the day.

I won't guarantee you'll get an answer to any of your questions but if you're patient most times you'll get some bored coder somewhere who'll lend you some help.

Be warned the people in that channel are there to hang out and shoot the breeze. Some could be in class or at work or otherwise occupied. Your patience will be rewarded!

but what if they don't like you there? then again you're left with trolling mac forums and googling lua fixes when possible.
