I'm really excited about this new edition, which is not just a cosmetic upgrade. Today marks the release of the first five chapters, as experience shows that getting early feedback is very useful. (Hacker News readers have proven to be particularly helpful, so thanks!) The other chapters are in good shape, and I expect to be able to release them at a good clip over the next few weeks. Chapters 6 and 7, due out next week, are particularly fun, putting the new 'has_secure_password' method to good use. There's plenty of other good stuff, including a full update of the RSpec coding style, so there's lots to look forward to in the coming weeks.
