[theme-reviewers] WordPress 3.4 Beta 1

PS: I had to do a (minor) re-write on my *_dynamic_copyright() function(s)
due to the deprecation of the various get_theme() functions / functionality.
Most of that is fairly straight forward so far ... I haven't looked too
much further into using the new WP_Theme class other than to address the
specific needs of getting to the Child-Theme and Parent-Theme header
details.


Cais.
