I'm pretty excited about the next release (after this one.)
I'm currently (barely) hanging on to my current 31.16,
just because I have a pretty good fortress going and, the world has a bit of history from the adbandoned/destoryed forts and the lost adventurers.
and I'm using the excuse of waiting for an even number release, so bugs will have been fixed. (haven't heard about too many in 31.17 though).

Still 31.18 sound likes awesomeness to come:
 

11/13/2010
After another release to work out some of the issues with adventure mode, the caravans begin to roll. The peasants are free from their hovels, tilling the fields and tending to their pigs and chickens. Great walled towns import food and goods from all over the world. You will be able to run one of these caravans, buying and selling across land, guided by the law of supply and demand. Not only that, you can do it on a horse.

One of the most exciting things about this next arc is that fortress mode and adventure mode will be bound together more than ever before. The dwarves will be forced to deal with the economic situation of the outside world, and adventurers will be able to experience the vast amount of dwarven goods your fortresses dump onto the market. It should be much fun.

By the ound of this we're either going to be able to  run a fortress concurrently with an adventurer, or instead of abandoning, "Hand over to self governance")
How else would we see the emense amount of dwarvengoods we are "dumping on to the market"

Hopefully tro tie in with the global economy we'll see a rebirth of the local economy again. (with fixes so that if the average bedroom is royal, then peasents can affort to live like kings)

[Urist Imiknorris]

My excitement depends solely on whether danger rooms work again.

[Dbuhos]

I'm excited by every new release. Dohoho.

[Itnetlolor]

Alright. Megaproject brainstorming time.

There's always the "Kit-n-Kaboodle" dwarven cat-based goods trade. Be careful, because catsplosions can crash markets.

[Zidane]

I want to flood the elven market with knock-off training weapons.

Yes! Non-ecologically friendly wood products! May contain pitchblende

Wait... they don't?

31.18 is bugfixes. The version after that has the new content.

[Lovechild]

The best way to crash the market would be to export high quality adamantine items at a low price, don't you think? The inflation would go through the roof.

Wait... they don't?

Upright spikes crash the game.


And I am eagerly awaiting for 0.31.18 because I hope that it will fix the crashes in the mods.

[hagbard]

Upright spikes crash the game.

Not only upright spikes, but all weapon traps are crashing the game.

I am eagerly awaiting .18 too, because  .17 is unusable because of frequent and inevitable segfaults.
Unfortunately I loaded my .16 fort (has lots of weapon traps) with .17, and now I can't load the save with .16 any more.

.17 got a lot of new stuff, but I think it would be better if Toady would give bugfixing priority over adding new stuff for a while.

[Lord Shonus]

He's devoting an entire release to bugfixing.

[Lord Vetinari]

I'm eagerly waiting for some new economical/social stuff as I'm more a manager kind of player. I'm not really interested in the military aspect of the game, so .19 or whatever will be is the release that I'm waiting most. Actually, I'm skipping .17 entirely.

[Haspen]

This game gets awesomier with every release, thus I'm always excitedly waiting for a new one.

[Orkel]

Yea my fort crashes the game 5 seconds after the save is loaded. I presume it's because a hidden enemy, be it an ambush or a snatcher, is triggering my weapon traps. Hopefully it will work in .18.

[Kogan Loloklam]

I've got lots of lag in this new one. I'm not sure what is causing it, it could be something my computer recently ate, or the new version. I no longer have a DVD rom drive, them costing more than I can scrape up unemployed, so I am hoping it is something that 31.18 fixes. If not, it takes me forever to do anything.
