  <p><span class="date">22.7.2011:</span> Version 1.1.7 is 
    <a href="download.html">released</a>!</p>

  <p>This release includes automatic rocket design optimization
    support (<em>Analyze</em> &rarr; <em>Rocket optimization</em>).
    You can optimize any amount of rocket parameters for apogee
    altitude, maximum velocity or a number of different values.</p>

  <p>While the automatic optimization is a powerful tool, it is very
    easy to optimize against particulars of the simulation methods,
    instead of true physical phenomena.  Always keep common sense at
    hand and take the results with a grain of salt.</p>

  <p><span class="date">22.7.2011:</span> Version 1.1.6 is 
    <a href="download.html">released</a>!</p>

  <p>This release includes initial localization support and
    translations to French, German and Spanish.  This is thanks to the
    great work of Boris du Reau, and the teams from Tripoli France,
    Tripoli Spain and ERIG e.V.  If you prefer to use some other
    language than the system default, you can select the language on
    the "Options" tab of the preferences dialog.</p>

  <p>The release also includes design scaling support and numerous bug
    fixes.</p>
