Anyone care to delineate differences between 4th and 5th edition of the games? Is it just packaging or did they go and change the dimensions of the pieces (again)? I suspect there's a bgg thread on this topic but as I'm at work I'm hoping someone else has the answer handy. Thanks!

TaniosI don't know the exact answer, but here's the link to the 5th edition rules: http://www.catan.com/files/downloads/catan_5th_ed_rules_eng_150303.pdf
As far as I know, there are no major changes to the rules, just a lot of clarifications of rare situations or misreading of the rules in addition to new artwork and rebranding the name to just Catan. The 4th and 5th edition are completely compatible.
