The newly revised Swords & Wizardry rulebook is on dtrpg:

It is non-OGL: the original game is re-created using the creative commons grant from Wizards of the Coast, and will have a third-party publisher license
once we decide whether to use the ORC license or a different third-party license.

This version includes several additions and revisions to earlier versions. The
"random castles" material is added, morale rules are added, and spell research
rules are added. The treasure tables are revamped, and errata from earlier versions is now incorporated into the book.

Morale rules! Very important. I like that.

The treasure tables are revamped, and errata from earlier
versions is now incorporated into the book.

Any opinions on that? I really didn’t like the abstract gold value that
gets traded out into packages and all that in earlier editions. The
review you linked says “Too many rolls and too little magic were my two biggest gripes with the old "trade-out" system, so I couldn't be
happier.” That’s not very specific…

I also feel for the German publisher that just recently finished their translation of the old S&W.

yep, the treasure tables are still based on average worth in gold, but
the whole process seems to be streamlined in a sensible way. Haven't
tried it yet, but it looks quite workable.

Oh boy, that sucks big time ... I believe their planning on a pdf or
booklet to summarize the changes -.-

In terms of layout and art I think the german edition still looks way
better even than the revised edition.
