No new Project Camelot build on Aug 30 — 1.60.1.69609 (Aug 29 02:16 UTC) remains the tip. Our watcher still polls wowdev2 via Blizztrack and cdn-last.json is synced at 69609.
The 25-hour surge still matters, but not for the reasons most posts imply.

Three encrypted updates across two internal environments in just under 25 hours. Parallel 1.60.0 and 1.60.1 remain active.
Observed vs. interpretation vs. unconfirmed
Observed: three encrypted updates in 25h, both 1.60.0 and 1.60.1 active, Armory Classic support live Aug 27, builds remain encrypted.
Interpretation: Camelot still in active development, Blizzard maintaining parallel branches, recent cadence could be work toward an internal milestone, Armory better equipped for multiple Classic products, China 69407 vendor variant could be localization/partner distribution, some activity could be show-realm prep (Stiven).
Unconfirmed: whether Camelot is Classic Plus, whether Armory was built for Camelot, any BlizzCon reveal/demo, any content in the builds, any alpha/beta/release date — including the Oct 13 rumor.
Encrypted build numbers confirm activity. They do not expose zones, classes, level cap or dates. A higher number does not mean a PTR is near.
Tracker: Classic+ hub timeline through Aug 29, and Aug 30 weekly roundup for Black Temple + 102 servers.
