This releases notes are from the pd html documentation, made by miller.

To access to all release notes, you can just start pd, click on the help menu, "html help" and go to current status / release note...

This might be considered an incompatible change; but since the situation with paths declared inside abstractions has always been so confused, I think nobody will have got away without editing patches that relied on it as things changed in the past.

Pd now can manage more than one running instance, so that it is possible to make plug-ins of various sorts out of Pd and they can coexist with each other. This will allow people to write much better VST plug-ins in Pd. I'm grateful to Carlos Eduardo Batista for much help on this.
