Today (or technically yesterday as I'm writing this at 3am) version 1.71 went live. There were some initial problems with the login servers but that seems to have been straightened out.
If you haven't yet, take your time to read through the patch notes. They're quite extensive and contain information about new PvE and RvR bonuses for underpopulated realms. For actual values of the bonuses see here. Remember that Artifact levelling has been simplified as well.
