There are a few things to mention about this release:

a. WARNING: Mac PPC version will not be able to run scripts or print in this release. This is a consequence of a bug that was fixed, and then un-fixed, by the annoying compiler vendor. i.e. if you're running on a PowerPC Mac and you try running scripts or printing objects/observation, it will most likely hard crash on you. I'm hoping to get a compiler fix soon, and release a version of AP that's safe to use on PowerPC Macs.

b. The new compiler/framework might have introduced new bugs. If something that worked before no longer does, let me know, ASAP.

c. The application size has jumped by many megabytes. This is a side effect of the new compiler, and in particular an all-new engine that powers the scripting (and hence printing) feature of AP.
