The DayZ team are ready to deploy the stable version of 0.49 and there are quite a few additions.

This latest update will see the addition of numerous new items, new melee hit detection, fibrillation, and even new events such as chopper crashes. At least now the animation for battery licking is sorted and worm digging will stop. Got to love DayZ patch notes.
