We pushed out a beta release of Ext JS 3.2 this morning. Although we've marked it as beta, it's a pretty solid release and we expect to release a final version shortly. The DataView transitions are especially fun - watch this space for a fuller example...

Here's a quick rundown of the features we added:

• Multiple sorting and filtering on Stores
• Animated DataView transitions
• Composite Fields
• Multiple handles on Sliders
• Sliders in forms
• A couple of Toolbar plugins
• A new, more accessible theme

One of the big projects we've undertaken that most people probably won't find so exciting is ramping up our internal QA efforts. Our unit test coverage has increased dramatically in the past couple of months, and we've built infrastructure to run all of our tests on every browser/OS we support in a fully automated fashion. Doing TDD on Ext JS is an awesome feeling.

I'll talk more in the future about what we're doing internally to ensure the quality of our code, framework performance and rendering.
