Did he finally give up the ghost?  Have the ravages of cellular decay finally taken their toll and prevented typing?  Thankfully, no.

We're closing in on the initial beta for 3.8.  If all goes well (and the mummified bandages hold), we will have the first test release for you all within three weeks.  In the mean time, here's a sample of what's in store with the coming release.

The new and improved profile comparison interface is shown below.  Unified scrolling, true difference detection and highlighting, aligned listings, partial image acceptance, flagging, birth year stripping, and a fancy new interactive 3-way image comparison are some of the highlights.

Many more cool things to come...

Is that a sliding line over the image covers?

Looks real good.
Really like the ability to accept or lock right on the comparison page as well as the highlighted changes.

Will the highlighted differences also show up for crew?

Yes, you can view with a slider, side-by-side, or overlaid (can swap between).

Yes, everything supports full difference highlighting.  Cast and crew also optionally collapse matching entries.

Blue = changed, green = new, red = removed, as determined by the differencing engine.

Here's a better look at the overview example, showing the apostrophe deleted from one place and added to another, the addition of the two asterisks, and the changing of one dash type to another (a popular change, from my testing ).

This is the change (more than others) that I have been hoping for a long while to see.

Very nice

Can you show how the crew section comparison looks for TV shows?

Just curious because right now it's grouped by group (ie alll directors listed together) and not be episode dividers.

Some sweet looking changes. Will 'screeners' be able to accept parts of submissions and decline others? Will we be able to vote on each part of a submission?

Any clues as to how the new casting system will be?

Thanks.
