The Stellarium team is very proud to announce the release of stable version 0.11.2. The main theme of this version seems to be localization - most of the text used by the default plug-ins is now translatable, landscape names are now translatable, country names are now translatable, scripts names and descriptions are now translatable. Also we fixed 47 different bugs. A huge thanks to all community bug reporters who helped us a lot finding bugs!
