The preview build was made from the 2.8 branch, which comes from 
wx/wxWidgets/branches/WX_2_8_BRANCH/ and 
wx/wxPython/branches/WX_2_8_BRANCH/ in the svn repository.  The trunk is 
currently for 2.9, which I've only been paying minimal attention to so 
far.  You might want to switch to the branches if you're wanting to keep 
up to date with the cutting edge, rather than the bleeding edge.  ;-)
