Specifically:
"If the Launcher is patching the game but does not show the patching status update, hang tight. It probably is patching, just not showing you. This is a known issue for the game's release."
-> 'Known issue for the game's release.'
Anyone else find this interesting wording? Does this mean that patch 6 is the last patch before the release? It feels like this wording is implying that the current version of the beta is the planned version to go gold (be printed to CD) and the rest will be a day 1 patch download. Exciting ! It feels like time is flying while I'm taking courses this term, Diablo 3 is fast approaching!
Probably just miswording, but I thought I'd bring it up none-the-less.
At this point i'm happy for them to know about problems and not fix them via delaying release.
But I'm not sure if that mean this is the last patch, they still need to test the Real Money side of the AH weather they are doing that via the public test version is yet to be known.
But going through the beta at the moment I can't really think of any features outside of RMAH left to test now that achievements and the like are out.

As you can see the release difference between patches vary. Patches 2,3,4 fixed roughly the same amount buggs and the release between them is also roughly the same. Patch 5 was that fucking loooooooooong (cat ) patch, so obviously it took more than a month. Patch 6's amount of fixes was roughly between these two sets of patches.
Basically what I'm trying to say is there's no way we can tell whether this is the last patch or not, BUT with that large patch 5 and medium patch 6, it looks like there's fewer bugs each time.
And it's still 2-3 months before the release so we might get a few small patches or a biggy at the end of the beta. All depends about what the testers say. I doubt they'll release a day 1 patch, cause you know Blizz, they'll rather release a non-buggy game later than releasing a buggy game on time...but I want this fuckin game NOW!
But this dude said in his thread that patch 6 was amazing compared to the previous patches...this might indicate that this patch is nearly as good as Blizz want the game, but this is just one dude's orgasm. We'll have to see later in the weekend. So maybe a couple of small patch(es) before the end of beta.
I'm pretty sure all that means is that it's something they plan on fixing right before release. I think the sentence could be rephrased as the following: "This is a known issue that will be fixed right at game's release."

Or perhaps its just a statement that the current release of the game has this problem...
Yeah, or that. Either way, it's not a Sign of Release (TM).

Successful Rick Rolled is Successful...
I was scared for a second... until I saw that video start then I was happy and decided to
let it play through and sing along! =O

oh my, I'm relieved...I thought it was Apocalypse...wait...so release is December 2012?!?...I hope Mayas were talking about the real Apocalypse.

I think too that they know this issue and are working to fix it on the Release version.
Until the game actually does come out in April, May or June. Then you will have seen the irony.
iagree!! i am just waiting !
ROFL, very well done sir.
