We have some plans. They're good plans.
Is the threat hotfix live?
That's a negative, Ghostrider. The hotfix isn't live yet, but we hope to see it active on all realms within the next few days. You can always keep an eye on our 4.2 hotfix blog to stay up-to-date: http://us.battle.net/wow/en/blog/3019413
Also, keep in mind that the upcoming changes to Vengeance will be implemented with a patch and not a hotfix. :)
