As noted in the announcement, all four of the new draft chapters have been extensively revised, and the last on ("Log in, log out") has been almost completely rewritten. The final four chapters (9–12) are nearly done and just need to be polished up for release. I hope to ship them some time next week.

    Yup, it's just a propagation delay: https://twitter.com/railstutorial/status/507228319062818816 https://twitter.com/railstutorial/status/507228319062818816

It's probably something with my browser, but a weird line appears on your page, which I haven't seen anywhere else. http://awesomescreenshot.com/0753f9w38b http://awesomescreenshot.com/0753f9w38b (I'm on Chrome 37 on Mac 10.9)

  Weird. I'm not seeing that, even on the same setup (Chrome Version 37.0.2062.94/OS X 10.9.4).

    I determined it was an issue with an extension I had (ColumnCopy). I think Google should help prevent these weird bugs caused by extensions.

The links to the tutorials themselves do not appear to be working.

Mike, my friend John is quoted in a previous copy of your book and I think it is the coolest thing in the world. Is there any way I can give you a testimonial or something? Being in this book would mean the world for me. Sorry for the ridiculous request but thought I would give it a shot! You never know unless you try.
