Well, as someone else has already said, it's been released.

Its list of requirements has grown quite a lot. In addition to whatever 
else you already have from an existing SA install, you need to install 
this load of Perl modules, in this order:

      YAML -- requires y\n in perl Makefile.PL
      ExtUtils::CBuilder
      ExtUtils::ParseXS
    Module::Build
      version
    Net::DNS::Resolver::Programmable
    Error
    NetAddr::IP
    Net::DNS >=0.58
    Data::Dump
  Encode::Detect
  Mail::SPF
Mail::SpamAssassin -- requires \n in perl Makefile.PL

It puts in a v320.pre into /etc/mail/spamassassin and comes with a load 
of new plugins. Some of them are loaded by the default supplied v320.pre 
file, but here are the ones that aren't:

                          Hashcash.pm             Rule2XSBody.pm
ASN.pm                                            SpamCop.pm
AutoLearnThreshold.pm                             SPF.pm
AWL.pm                                            Test.pm
                                                  TextCat.pm
                          MIMEHeader.pm          
BodyRuleBaseExtractor.pm  OneLineBodyRuleType.pm  URIDNSBL.pm
                          Pyzor.pm              
DCC.pm                    Razor2.pm              
                          RelayCountry.pm         WhiteListSubject.pm
                          ReplaceTags.pm

My next step is to read the man pages for all of these, and work out 
which ones you probably want to load and which ones you don't, so that 
my install script can set you up with a sensible system. One thing I'm 
not installing is support for DKIM which, although available, requires 
so many pre-requisites that it's not feasible for me to do here. You 
have to start at the OpenSSL libraries and work your way up :-(

Once I've got something working here, I'll write up an install script 
for it all and wrap it into a package for you.
