24.11.2011: Version 1.1.9 is + released!
+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 Geodetic calculations option in the simulation + options. It's not (yet) a full spherical computation model, but + should be accurate enough for almost all sub-orbital needs.
+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.
+25.8.2011: Version 1.1.8 is + released!
+This release contains bug fixes to the optimization methods. + It also contains a workaround to a JRE bug that prevents running + OpenRocket on some builds of Java 7.
+The web pages have also been somewhat updated and Boris du Reau has + created a separate site + for coordinating the localization efforts for OpenRocket.

+This release includes automatic rocket design optimization + support (Analyze → Rocket optimization). + You can optimize any amount of rocket parameters for apogee + altitude, maximum velocity or a number of different values.
+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.
