2.7.0 is now online, including a number of bugfixes and important feature additions. Many network issues were resolved. A few issues may yet remain, but stability should be much improved. The homing missile proximity warning now works correctly and homing missiles are somewhat more accurate (a side effect of the fix), which may make them appear more deadly. Gamma correction is now available under MacOS X. Mouse configuration settings are now saved properly. The "select nearest enemy" key now *only* selects the nearest enemy (the additional selection changes will probably appear in the next version). The gameplay alterations (ship masses and so forth) have not yet been changed, but that should go into effect this weekend (no update will be required).

A couple of outstanding issues remaining: MacOS X still has no joystick calibration, and Linux is in need of new joystick code in general. These are in-process.

As always, if you run into any problems or crashes, please submit bug reports so that we might solve the problems as quickly as possible. Thanks.
