I probably missed something, but I can't find any procedure to upgrade from 3.2.3 to 3.3.0 beta. I've found update scripts for databases, php scripts (update folder) that probably do something interesting, but as long as they are not (much) commented, I don't know how to run them, and what do they exactly do.

See http://ez.no/developer/ez_publish_3/documentation/installation/upgrading/upgrading_ez_publish_from_3ab_to_3xy
But note: There is no "Diff"-File for this beta. I think, ez will only provide Diffs for stable releases, but you will read there, how to apply the upgrade SQL file.
I think, you do not neet the php script in the update folder.

So, in short:
1. Apply the update .sql file with something like
mysql publish < <update-sql-filename>
2. Copy (override) the files from the new version over the old version, recursivly. When you made your settings ONLY in override files (as recommended), all you settings should survive the update.
3. Clear all caches via the admin interface, if you can. Or use the "clear-cache.sh" script (somewhere in /bin). OR simply delete everything in var/cache

To summ it up, all I have to do is :
1) Install the latest version
2) Apply SQL upgrade script to my DB
3) Copy my designs and settings from the old version to the new

Is that all ? :) It seems that by example one of the .php scripts in the update directory changes somethings in config files, or another one seems to play with xml in db :p
