The newest patch to be released is 1.0.2b, check out the patch notes below:
General
- When logging into Diablo III, the "Cancel" button which appears in the login checkbox will now be grayed out for 30 seconds after a Battle.net account name and password are entered. This is to reduce server load during the login process.
Auction House
- Damaged items can now be sold on the auction house:
Once sold, damaged items will be repaired automatically when moved from the purchasing player's Completed tab to their stash
Please note that unsold damage items will not be automatically repaired when returned to the seller's stash
- Description messages for several auction house-related errors have been added
Mac
- Several Mac performance improvements have been made
Bug Fixes
General- It is no longer possible to skip entire Acts in a multiplayer game
Classes- Barbarian:
Fixed a bug that was allowing certain barbarian skills to continuously trigger each other's critical strikes, to the point of causing the player to crash. To address this crash, the following skill and skill rune combinations can no longer be triggered by each other's critical strikes.
Followers- Monsters who are charmed by the Enchantress's skill "Mass Confusion" can no longer kill event NPCs

article explaining the main changes in patch 1.0.3!
