Hi All,
In the run up to the 1.0.0 release (coming soon!), we wanted to mention that a major improvment is in a flurry of small and large bug fixes implemented since 0.9.2. Please find the longish list below, loosely grouped, and hopefully clear enough in their terse discriptions. (Note, this does not include bugs created and fixed in pre-release builds, only stable to stable). Thanks to all the folks who helped find the pesky devils in the first place! We hope we got to some of your favorites.
