I don't know if they have been fixed yet, but these are some issues I ran
into  with the other beta:

* The location of 'Ardour2.app' cannot have spaces in it. This might be
important to people with localities where 'Applications' is two words.
* The action of the + and the - key on the main keyboard are reversed (num
keypad doesn't work at all)
* Software Monitoring has some kind of delayed signal present, so vocals
sound like a pirate radio channel with an ugly delay, like a metallic
distortion. This is only during recording. Most of the time I use hardware
monitoring so it's not a problem. This might be a mis-configuration on my
side? (What does the 'latency' in the JACK submenu do?)

These issues are on 3 macs: 2 PPC and 1 Intel.

Thanks, (also for the plugins!)
