As of now (commit 87a261ebd99090fb3bd0c2a6342faa3b5fcda107 in the master branch of the angband/angband repo on github [1]) the following changes have been made:
1. Extensive code refactoring by elly and takkaria (in particular edit file parsing and the menu API)
2. new spell browsing from takkaria
3. vault changes from fizzix
4. fractional blows from magnate
5. new WELL RNG from d_m (non on github)
6. misc bugfixes
So, at this point there is a lot of good new stuff in there for people to play with, and more coming down the pipe! There are a few known rough edges but things should be playable at this point (and the rough edges are being smoothed as I write).
So, go ahead and grab a Windows nightly [2] (Mac nightlies were broken but should resume shortly). Or you can build from source. The procedure for cloning from git should be as simple as "git clone git://github.com/angband/angband.git". The build instructions are platform-dependent and should be available elsewhere on oook.
Also, if you're someone who likes submitting patches or fiddling with the code, I encourage you to get an account on github and fork angband. (EDIT: and if your github username is different, make sure we know who you are.)
Finally, if you have development questions, stop by #angband-dev on the IRC network freenode.
