Rogue and Paladin changes in WotLK
Dagger rogues and retribution paladins will get some love, however there won't be any class changes before the release of Wrath of the Lich King.
[blizzquote author=Bornakk]Retribution paladins
We have mentioned in the past that we would like to improve Retribution Paladins in Wrath of the Lich King, we just don't have a lot of specific details to release regarding this right now. We did say we plan on changing how their abilities work to share gear with warriors which will help make it easier for them to gear up though. (Source)
Dagger rogues
We understand that daggers need a bit of improvement and plan to improve them. Currently though there are other options for doing damage for the Rogue so it is not like all options are blocked, but like I said, we are aware of this issue. (Source)
Classes changes before the expansion
We currently don't have any plans to make big changes to any class before Wrath of the Lich King. (Source)[/blizzquote]
Hunter - Charge affecting Growl is a bug
Sad news for all the hunters using a boar in solo PvE, your pet will be nerfed in a future patch.
