These are the updates to the rulebook since the last rulebook:
Can I reveal two Belts of Incredible Dexterity over and over to add ∞ to my Dexterity?
When I die, are all my cards buried?
Do temporarily closed locations really stay closed until the end of the turn?
I think that covers all of them.

It would really be helpful if the FAQs were dated, or if those that are included in the most recent version of the rulebook were identified as such somehow.
Also, the FAQ now displays the date that an entry was added.
Great, thanks!
3 of the FAQ mention being updated in the second printing (Sajan, Amulet of Mighty Fists, and Swipe). Have any others been updated in the second printing? If so, can they be noted too? Thanks.
We will eventually create a revised PDF of the rulebook incorporating these changes, but we don't currently have a timetable to announce for that.
How do we know we have the most recent version of the rulebook?
The Pathfinder Adventure Card Game home page contains a link to the rulebook said to be "Last Updated - 2/4/2014". But the file itself has a modified date of 3/18/2014.
The FAQ has a link to what appears to be the same file (modified date of 3/18/2014) but with a comment that lets you think the rulebook has been last updated on 1/4/2014. (The entry is said to have been posted on Nov 13, 2013, which is a bit weird as this is in the past of both potential rulebook updates.)
Is there any indication in the PDF rulebook itself (even in very tiny script) as to what version it is really? I couldn't find it.
The 3/18/14 update was to fix bookmarks in the PDF, it didn't change any of the text. So 2/4/14 is the most recent version. One of the last updates to make it into the rulebook was the update to "Reset Your Hand". Here is how it was in version 2 from November and version 3 from February.
Reset Your Hand: You may no longer play any cards this turn, but you may discard any number of cards from your hand. If you have more cards in your hand than the hand size listed on your character card, you must discard cards until the number of cards in your hand matches your hand size. Finally, if you have fewer cards than your hand size, you must draw cards until the number of cards in your hand matches your hand size.
Reset Your Hand: First, apply any effects that happen at the end of the turn; if a power allows or directs you to not reset your hand, you must still apply any effects that happen at the end of the turn. You may play cards and use powers unless a power directed you to reset your hand and end your turn. After resolving these effects, you may no longer play cards or use powers for the rest of the turn. Next, you may discard any number of cards. Then, if you have more cards in your hand than your hand size specifies, you must discard until the number of cards in your hand matches your hand size. Finally, if you have fewer cards than your hand size, you must draw cards until the number of cards in your hand matches your hand size.
The latest version also matches the second physical printing, which means that if you look at the legal text at the bottom of page 23, you'll see "Printed in the USA" in the latest version.When do you think they'll be ready on DriveThruCards?
They haven't said yet, but this seems to indicate they are getting close.
Thank you. You planning on GenCon, Hawkmoon?
I am not. Perhaps next year though. Not sure if I could afford the cost and the time. It would be cool though.

I have modified the resolution to this item because the text in the previous resolution didn't actually fit on the card.
(I removed the italicized word from the following sentence: "When you encounter a monster from a location deck, you may display this card next to that location deck and put the monster atop this card.")
(And yes, the fact that we're fitting FAQ text to card layouts does indeed mean that we're working on the PoD errata decks now.)

I hate to be that guy again, but after the issue with the bugbears yesterday, its the second time I see technical hurdles related to the errata deck affecting the FAQ.
Of course, your choices concerning these two examples are perfectly reasonable (I didn't expect an errata issued relative to the Bugbear trait, I was just looking for a confirmation that I understood monster traits correctly); but they prompt the following question:
Will the FAQ be frozen after the errata deck is published?
It is still in the works. In fact, I'd expect it sometime soon. It is discussed in this thread.

I added one entry today. It includes the previous standalone resolution for the Spiny Shield, so I removed that entry.

I added one today. (This change had already been made to the errata decks available at DriveThru Cards.)
Added Horror Tree.
You've got your Horror Trees and Wardens of Thunder mixed up there. It happens from time to time.
Added Collapsed Ceiling and Avalanche.
The FAQ says no class deck characters care about the Task trait, but in fact Siwar will care about this very much if you're playing her in RotR. ("Be a gentleman and dig me out, would you?")
I don't know if you'd do Iconic Heroes Promo FAQs, but if you do - Biter could probably benefit from the Velociraptor FAQ.
