We're going to be upgrading the software on the live site to the current development version, over the next 24 hours or so. However, we won't be releasing a tarball just yet. Before we do that, we want to obtain translations for the new interface text, and also to fix a few user-friendliness issues with the installer. We'll probably upgrade the smaller wikis first, and do the English Wikipedia fairly late in the peace. There might be short periods of downtime during this process.
A list of new features is at http://meta.wikipedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki_roadmap
The status of categories is not clear on this page - is it not included, or is it included but are you (meaning the developers) still working on improving it?

Categories are functional, but there are improvements yet to be made.

Well actually, unless the supercategories don't display the articles of there subcategories they are pretty useless. Eg http://test.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Canine should display [[Poodle]] somewhere, since Poodle is in the Dog category. Actually, this functionality is what we need the categories for ("show me all actors", "show me all artists", "show me all persons"). Without that working, I wouldn't call the category feature "functional".
