06/28/2007: Fixed problem with king demand initialization, did a bit more with world map tree display, handled some problems with minimap display for abnormal site sizes, restricted use of burning objects in many ways, allowed corpse and body part type specification in refuse piles, added a building coloration to the stocks screen and changed counting

I don't know to what extent that is a "yes" or a "no". It may simply prevent processing !!items!! (like making barrels out of !!wood!!), or it could indicate a restriction on picking them up in the first place.

- region specific vegetation (good, evil, savage)
- underground water table
- channels are now just z-level trenches
- floor hatches
- grates that allow water passage but block movement or act as a floor for your creatures
- migrants tracked across the world, visit/join your fortress, repopulate npc villages, can be encountered in the world by adventurers
- new materials (like more metals and alloys)
- custom stockpiles now support quality restrictions
- can mine into and engrave and build statues out of glacier ice
- activity zones for designating parts of the river/lake/etc to drink water from
- adventurers can fill their waterskins   :D
- can dump and melt down items from looking at them
- designated dumping areas
- wood/charcoal can be brought with your initial team and wood can now be imported
- dwarves are at least a bit smarter when it comes to !!burning items!!
- more init file options (graphics refresh rate, vsync, cave-ins, artifacts)
- dwarves can now move diagonally, like adventurers
- swimming and flying interface support for adventurers
- much more in-depth personality profile for dwarves
- new/different endgame features
- your adventurer can just let go of things that get stuck in the enemy wounds (yay)
- material selection interface is much nicer
- and of course many fixes and optimizations</STRONG>
