Wrath of the Lich King: NOW We Can Talk
Unless you have been removed from the news cycle, you allready know these two important tidbits of information:
The Wrath Beta has started
The NDA has been lifted.
In other words, any proposed changes are now public, in the open, and up for legit discussion.[...]
Gravatars (Finally) Enabled, and Plugging the NOFF Plugin
I finally managed to take the time and add Gravatar support to Altitis.
Quick Notes
Just 1-2 quick things:
The Quest for Precise Damage Metering: Almost There
Numbers, numbers, numbers. That’s all Damage Meter addons are about. Getting those as close to what your server knows you have dealt is the big challenge, and the Eldorado promised by patch 2.4 is getting closer by the day.
Damage Meters in Patch 2.4, One Week Later
This is just a very short round-up of where the different damage meters are today in terms of parch 2.4 compatibility, not an in-depth benchmark.

AddOns in Review: Damage Meters Benchmark I, solo
