Clojure 1.6.0-alpha3 has the following changes from 1.6.0-alpha2:

1) Reverted: CLJ-1125 (fix for permgen leak) based on the regression 
reported in CLJ-1299. A fix for this regression is in development and I 
expect it to be re-applied in a future alpha.
- http://dev.clojure.org/jira/browse/CLJ-1125
- http://dev.clojure.org/jira/browse/CLJ-1299

2) The following features are no longer marked "Alpha" in Clojure (woohoo!):

* Watches - add-watch, remove-watch  18 * Transients - transient, 
persistent!, conj!, assoc!, dissoc!, pop!, disj!
* Exception data - ex-info, ex-data
* Promises - promise, deliver
* Records - defrecord
* Types - deftype
* Pretty-print tables - print-table

3) Applied patches for:

* [CLJ-827](http://dev.clojure.org/jira/browse/CLJ-827) - New function: 
clojure.core/unsigned-bit-shift-right
* [CLJ-866](http://dev.clojure.org/jira/browse/CLJ-866) - New function: 
clojure.test/test-vars
* [CLJ-1102](http://dev.clojure.org/jira/browse/CLJ-1102) - Better handling 
of exceptions with empty stack traces.
* [CLJ-939](http://dev.clojure.org/jira/browse/CLJ-939) - Exceptions thrown 
in the top level ns form are reported without file or line number.
* [CLJ-858](http://dev.clojure.org/jira/browse/CLJ-858) - Improve speed of 
STM by removing System.currentTimeMillis.
* [CLJ-669](http://dev.clojure.org/jira/browse/CLJ-669) - 
clojure.java.io/do-copy: use java.nio for Files

now supports records.

unnecessary cases of sneakyThrow.
* [CLJ-1238](http://dev.clojure.org/jira/browse/CLJ-1238) - Allow EdnReader 
to read foo// (matches LispReader behavior).
* [CLJ-1264](http://dev.clojure.org/jira/browse/CLJ-1264) - Remove uses of 
_ as a var in the Java code (causes warning in Java 8).
* [CLJ-1222](http://dev.clojure.org/jira/browse/CLJ-1222) - Multiplication 
overflow issues around Long/MIN_VALUE
* [CLJ-1118](http://dev.clojure.org/jira/browse/CLJ-1118) - Inconsistent 
numeric comparison semantics between BigDecimals and other numerics

Still on the plate are 16 
tickets<http://dev.clojure.org/jira/secure/IssueNavigator.jspa?reset=true&jqlQuery=project+%3D+CLJ+AND+status+in+%28Open%2C+%22In+Progress%22%2C+Reopened%29+AND+fixVersion+%3D+earliestUnreleasedVersion%28%22CLJ%22%29+and+Approval+IN+%28+Vetted%2C+Incomplete%29+order+by+priority+DESC%2C+key+DESC>(I
 expect many but not all of those to make it in) and the hashing 
performance work (http://dev.clojure.org/display/design/Better+hashing). 
Once we reach "completion" we'll release an RC for final testing.
