The main goal of this release is to make path-finding work better again.
Kloot as coder, and Godde as tester put a lot of work in there.
Besides that, tons of other fixes and minor adjustments have gone in.
Thanks also to the various contributors (among them BrainDamage, FLOZi, koshi and slogic), testers and bug reporters!
The windows installer now also contains Tobis rapid client.
