Finder 5.4 and System 3.3 have been officially released and are available
on CompuServe's Macintosh User and Developer forums (dl8 on macdev).  The
outwardly noticeable features are a new Chooser (much nicer though seemed
as slow or slower than the previous one), a new DA called "Access Privileges"
and a new menu selection "Get Privileges" which are useful only with Apple's
forthcoming AppleShare file server (incidentally, neither of these features
showed on disks that I upgraded using the provided installer script... does
the Finder actually check to see if "Access Privileges" DA is installed and
only then put up the "Get Privileges" menu selection? How would it identify it?

Also, "Clean Up" has been revamped.  In the normal case, it now says "Clean
Up Window."  If you select something first it says "Clean Up Selection" and
will only clean up what you have selected.  If you hold the option key down,
it only says "Clean Up."

The trash can now becomes bloated if there is something in it.  A nice
visual touch, if not a bit whimsical.

And, a comma was added to 1024K in the "About Finder."

Lastly, the much advertised new "Get Info" is quite nice.

Did I miss anything?
