Yeah. Found them:

*Patch Day*
- The Shadow Knight's "Unholy Aura" discipline has received an
enhancement. When in use, harmtouch resistances will be checked versus
disease instead of magic. In addition, harmtouch will resist in the
same fashion as lifetap spells, meaning that unless the creature is
immune to disease, you should get full damage most of the time.
(This was the first one, and could be construed as DISC-specific, but, followed by)

***Patch Day***
- The "Unholy Aura" Discipline now gives a 50% bonus to Harmtouch
(compared with the previous 25%) and causes it to save versus disease,
which should result in even fewer resists in most high-level
encounters.
*Spells*
- "Harmtouch" is now resisted as if it were a "Lifetap" spell, meaning
that it is all-or-nothing, and nearly unresistable with exception to
encounters that are immune to magic or out of the acceptable level
range. In addition, maximum damage for Harmtouch has been increased
starting at 40th level.
There you have it. HT should be on Lifetap-style resist and should be near-unresistable in standard encounters.
Edit: Note that the HT change is a Velious-era change. It is feasible that it will not be changed until Velious is released on p99.
Edit2: Anyone else notice that these two patch notes say almost the exact same thing? Redundancy, anyone?
