Whew, that one was long. But still short for something that took 8 months to release. We planned to do it anyway, but since Adelae contributed lighting code that was a kickstart. We want user input and we'll be working on fixing more stuff for another release soon.
This release is untested and we already have some fixes ready to be released ASAP, but which didn't make it into 0.3.2.
Notice how lazy I personally was for this release -- all credit for continuing this project goes to nfries88, and other occasional contributors such as Ormin, Kilouco, FightingElf, and especially Adelae whose lighting system gave us a kick in our collective asses.
Extra thanks go to Thomac for figuring out parts of hardware info data being transmitted by the client. We currently hardcode his data.
Please try out the client and report issues using the bugtracker! Also, post your comments and reports for this release in this thread.
If you have any suggestions for future development please use the YATC forum and of course post them on bug tracker.
