Is there still mana burn, and does unspent mana carry over?

Several community members give the same answer in the forum threads; no official ruling.

No. Mana burn was removed from the game, so unspent mana never hurts you. It does empty from your mana pool at the end of every step and phase, so you cannot save mana tapped early in the turn for a later phase.
