Here's a little bit of guidance to those not really so much into ui-customization and addons. As you have heard, WoW 2.0 has some pretty major changes that limit/and open up the possibilities mods can do.
A collection about working addons atm:
forums.wow-europe.com/thread.html?topicId=89571475&sid=1
Death of decursive
Some people will probably try to create something similar, but in essence it will be impossible. At the moment most people consider click-casting + good raid frames the winning combo when it comes to decursing etc.
An example of click-casting is that you can cast "cleanse poison" by <shift>+left click on the person. Addons to do this are posted below.
ACE2 framework / project:
www.wowace.com/wiki/Main_Page
This is to my understanding a collection of functions that helps mod makers to develop efficient mods. Many posters think this is the best thing in wow-ui customization yet. Go figure about that.. still, they seem to work rather well atleast for me
Ace2 addons worth considering:
Download page: www.wowace.com/files/
oRA2 - a raiding addon that does the same thing as CTRA, only better
www.wowace.com/wiki/ORA2
BigWigs - alternative to CT_Bossmods
www.wowace.com/wiki/BigWigs
sRaidFrames - CTRA style raid frames
www.wowace.com/wiki/SRaidFrames
Grid - Highly configurable raid frames that don't take too much screen space. This is the one I would recommend, but test for yourself.
www.wowace.com/wiki/Grid
clique - click casting. Adds a new tab to spellbook
www.wowace.com/wiki/Clique
DL only: www.wowinterface.com/downloads/info5108
aq_unitframes - somewhat configurable unitframes
www.wowace.com/wiki/Ag_UnitFrames
Bartender 3 - configurable hotbar addon
FuBar - similar to titan panel. Supposedly more lightweight that Titan Panel. Has lot of additional plugins available. One of the treats is honorFu which keeps track of you bonus honor before the nightly update
If you want to see what these look like, go see Njoosy's pic of ui in the quick gloat thread
