- Cataclysm Beta Patch Notes
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Welcome to the World of Warcraft: Cataclysm friends and family beta
test. The list below contains information on the current available
content for testing. This information is subject to change, and we’ll
be sure to expand upon some of the new features over time.

General

- The Alliance starting experience for worgen is now available.
Venture through the cursed lands of Gilneas to discover your true
path! Currently the female worgen character is not available for
testing.
- The Horde starting experience for goblins is now available.
Beginning on the Isle of Kezan in a goblin paradise, players will
face a treacherous road ahead!
- The updated level 1-60 experience on the continent of Kalimdor is
further along in development than Eastern Kingdoms. Players are
encouraged to test Kalimdor first at this stage of beta. Changes to
both continents will continue to be applied as testing progresses.
- Players may use our Character Copy feature for copying existing
characters to beta realms, or may choose from high-level pre-made
template characters.
- The level cap for all characters has been increased to 82.
- Mount Hyjal and Vashj'ir, two new level 78-82 zones, are now
available. Players may find their way to these zones by speaking
with temporary teleportation NPCs located in any major city.

Dungeons & Raids

- Blackrock Caverns, a level 79-81 five-player dungeon is now
available for testing and can be accessed via the Dungeon Finder.

User Interface

- The Flight Map has been enlarged to support more flight points in
Azeroth.
- The Talents pane has now been split to show all three talent trees
in a single frame, including a display of each tree’s Mastery
information.
- The hunter pet’s Talents pane has been updated and improved.

Technical Support

- Windows Vista and Windows 7 users experiencing issues updating the
game client should right-click on the client icon and select Run as
Administrator.

I think it was the F&F Beta the whole time. They just didn't announce whether it was a Beta or Alpha.

Oh, ok, I guess they didn't change them with the new 12012 326mb patch. Sorry =p

Here's an screenshot of Blizzard's secret Alpha forums with the "Patch 1" notes (they're using the same StarCraft II naming convention for beta patches):

Just for your information the patch number is incorrect. The new patch is 4.0.0.12025 not 4.0.0.12012.
