The duty in our words, the evidence a board or an auditor asks for, the common gaps and what to do before publication.
Open the registerWhat changed in ISO 27014 edition 3?
No public clause change is recorded. The ISO page for edition 3 carries the same abstract and the same 13-page count as the page for the 2020 edition, and both name the same four processes and audiences. The clause text is not public, so this site does not claim an unseen change. When the text is available, the record is refreshed and the diff is sent.

What the record shows
The public record shows the edition number, the stage history and the abstract. The abstract on the edition 3 page describes concepts, objectives and processes for governing information security, by which organizations evaluate, direct, monitor and communicate. It names the governing body and top management, the people responsible for an ISO/IEC 27001 management system and the people managing security outside one. The 2020 page says the same.
What the record does not show
A clause addition, a renumbering, a changed definition or a new annex. The site could guess from the edition number or from committee commentary, and it will not. A wrong clause change in a paid reference is worse than a stated gap, so the gap is stated.
What to do about it
Build the record against the published edition. When the FDIS or the published text appears, compare the clause list with the register, record the differences and update the citation. The watch emails the change when it happens.
Why the site is still useful
Because the governance work is the same under either edition. The role map, the six objectives, the four processes and the board reporting are durable, and the published edition already sets them out.

Questions
Is the 2020 edition withdrawn?
No. It is recorded as to be revised, and it remains the published edition in force until edition 3 is published.
Will there be a national annex?
Possibly, in some markets. National adoption can add a foreword or an annex. The site names the ISO and ITU sources and does not claim a national variation it has not seen.
Can I rely on the clause numbers?
They are the 2020 clause numbers. The site says so and does not claim an edition 3 renumbering. When the new text appears, the numbers are checked and updated.
