Okay, without any informations what is broken, how it's broken, where it is broken this is impossible to answer.
For example please read http://drupal.org/node/571990 to provide at least some kind of informations.

Important information: we don't sit in front of your computer.

If you consider 'beta' a production version of Views, you're also making a grave error. But as dereine said, without providing proper information, we can't help you.

I think I'm having the same issue. I'm trying to add a field to a view. All seems fine, but when I save the view, the field isn't in the fields list.

I don't think it matters, but I also upgraded from beta3 to the latest dev version.

Some information on the current versions I'm using:

Drupal core 7.0
Chaos tool suite 7.x-1.0-alpha4
Views 7.x-3.x-dev

I've tested this in FF and Chrome.

I tried updating my ctools version to 7.x-1.x-dev, but that didn't fix it.

After downgrading to views-7.x-3.0-beta3, I can add fields again.

Same issue here, fields disappeared after upgrading to dev version (04/14) without being able to add them again. Everything is doing fine with views 7.x-1.x-dev of 04/13 and ctools dev version of 04/14.
Just in case this could help I attach an export of the view.

This fields are now under the "content" section.

the problem appears for me since commit cd511e5e4a6a3c21f49357fe96173d53db2cb7f3

@Dereine: what do you mean?

The problem is not that we can't add any fields, the problem is that after adding some fields and saving the view, the fields have disappeared ...

Aha. Thanks to dasjo I was able to understand the problem. I pushed a fix.

For those who felt they were being clear, I'm sorry, you were not. I realize you felt that a concise description of what you were dealing with was being given, but it turns out there was a lot of data that mattered. What fields you adding that weren't being saved, for example, makes a HUGE difference.

And then, 'not being saved' could have a number of meanings. That did not translate, in my mind, to being removed from the view upon save. Please, please try to understand that we cannot see your system when you report these bugs, and that you have to be as complete as possible. When in doubt, tell me precisely what you did, what you clicked, the result you saw, and the result you expected. Screenshots can help a lot too.

The patch is attached so you can apply it immediately.

Oh, another thing -- when this happens, there was a green message about the view being automatically modified. Providing that message also would've helped.

Nice patch description by the way ;-)
