+ <p>For this version Richard Graham has implemented geodetic
+ computation methods, which take into account the curvature of the
+ Earth and the coriolis effect. The computation method is selected
+ by the <em>Geodetic calculations</em> option in the simulation
+ options. It's not <em>(yet)</em> a full spherical computation model, but
+ should be accurate enough for almost all sub-orbital needs.</p>
+ <p>Doug Pedrick has also enhanced the printing system with the
+ ability to print fin positioning guides, transition templates and
+ nose cone profiles. Other smaller enhancements and bug fixes are
+ also included.</p>

<p>This release contains bug fixes to the optimization methods.
