After a number of pretests, Emacs 24.1 has been officially released. You can read the announcement here. Some highlights of the new features that I think might be useful to people, especially the Emacs version of apt-get.
- New packaging system and interface (M-x list-packages) for
downloading and installing extensions. A default package
archive is hosted by GNU and maintained by the Emacs developers.
- Support for displaying and editing bidirectional text, including
right-to-left scripts such as Arabic and Hebrew.
- Support for GnuTLS (for built-in TLS/SSL encryption), GTK+ 3,
ImageMagick, SELinux, and Libxml2.

Binaries are at the usual place though it might take a few days to show up in your favourite mirror site.
