Crashing still occurs when modded race with casts enters town area displaying slabs with shop signs.  This makes adventure mode much less enjoyable as you can't sell or buy anything.  I've tested this with my own modded race which has castes and another modded race without castes.  So far, seems only the ones with castes still crash just before entering area that displays shop signs.
Seems it is just my casted race mod.  Will look into why.  Sorry.

   (*)updated dwarf party organization conditions
Does this mean that ghosts won't organize parties anymore?  I kind of liked that bug.

Most excellent work once again Toady! You've done it again!
I do believe the game as current is sufficient enough for some notable publicity.
Hell, the world generation, capacity to generate history and the many other fascinating mechanics of the DF deserve hell of a lot more attention.
You should look into contacting indie game features, such as this G4TV's Indie Game Website.
How do you think Minecraft exploded? ;]

All in all, great work Toady, you definitely deserve the praise.

I was galled to pay the asked price for minecraft. For all its potential, it falls far short of the enjoyment I derive from games like Dwarf Fortress.

I wouldn't have hesitated to pay double that amount for Dwarf Fortress in its current state.

As would I, Minecraft is great but Dwarf Fortress is so rich. Had Dwarf Fortress been on the receiving end of all the hype, imagine the amount of $ Toady would receive from donations alone! :P

Hell, in my most recent D&D game I generated a world in DF and copied parts of the map and history for background in a new area. Talk about versatility.

But the default races have castes for each gender! Does this mean that default adventurers cannot enter town areas with slab-signs?

Oh no, I just did a diff. Kobolds now have [metal_pref] and furnace operators allowing them to make their own metal weapons!

Hmm, with further testing, it seems other modded races are working as well, just not mine for some reason.  I will test this more thoroughly and edit my original post.

What is this? Someone admitted to being wrong on the internet?

I thought the shop stealing bug happened when you bought an item but picked up the wrong one by mistake. I went to an armour shop which had two sets of +large bronze greaves+ and bought a set. I then got the cold shoulder from people and figured I had guessed incorrectly when I tried to pick the item out of the two identical choices.

The one you own will not have $ $ on either side of the item. Like $+bronce greaves+$ is owned by the shop.

Ah, of course! Thanks.

In .17 there was apparently a bug where ownership would sometimes revert, so that also may have been the issue if your experience was in 31.17

There isn't currently a way to give equipment to your followers, is there?  Is that planned for the future?
