Sooo.. this is going on right now?

 five quest issues, around thirty miscellaneous issues, map maintenance, optimization of the new stuff, sponsorship critters and incorporation of Baughn's fixes to the SDL stuff.

Map maintenance may still in progress -- he's only mentioned "mulling it over on paper" so far -- but otherwise yeah.

I think it means attempting to make the upcoming format for city maps forward-compatible.  That could be entirely wrong, though.

It could be, for example, better handling changes to map, like flow, pathfinding, cave-in code, etc. Or making smaller memory footprint. Or whatever. Too little data to know.

Dwarf Fortress - where the primary reason to prevent death of your citizens is that it makes them more annoying then they were in life.

More giant animals means better choice for my dwarf mode arena. If I can bag a giant octopus or squid then my fortress aquarium is going to be even more entertaining than the time I captured a bunch of sharks.

Yeah but there are no "fricking lasers on theyr fricking forheads".

I think the dcission to include all Animals left on the sponsorship list was atleast disputable. I for nce would have taken them out of this update and would have made a dedicated update just for them instead of cramming in theyr special tokens etc. later.

If there's one thing to which I am looking forward. In this release, it is a mended dungeon master.

@Footjob, you can microwave most grains I've tried pretty easily through the microwave, even if they aren't packaged for it.

My hard drive suddenly burst into flames while doing map maintenance, thus the release is pushed back four months

No, it wasn't fixed. Only the hammerer has changed.
