So what's happened in the past two months, news-wise, community-wise, etc.?
Equestria Girls premiers in three days, various leaks are already coming out about it. it is quite likely it won't be as terrible as originally expected and won't actually involve Twilight getting very close to Brad
we'll still have to wait and see, but it is turning into a more optimistic plausibility.
outside of that, nothing is really going on. they've somehow kept show-related leaks to a zero these last few weeks/months, and no official news has been given either. the topic is at that typical in-between seasons state of vegetation, we're just waiting at this point.
