Since this was not yet posted to wikitext-l:
Last Thursday, we rolled out a new release of the Visual Editor, the first to use Parsoid to load and save actual wiki pages. You can read about it at http://blog.wikimedia.org/2012/06/21/help-us-shape-wikimedias-prototype-visu....
Or try it at https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/VisualEditor:Test
And please leave feedback at https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Visual_editor/Feedback or in bugzilla.
Cheers,
Gabriel
