We only have a few issues left to solve and we're ready to release version 1.6.0 of B3. As you have read in our previous news posts we've undergone quite some changes in order to get v1.6.0 stable.
Because of the unicode changes to the core of B3 (necessary to support homefront) it took a little longer to get to a stable state. Some 3rd party plugins might still have issues with the core of v1.6.0, but we are confident that these issues can easily be solved by plugin creators.
Beta support for
Altitude is also included in v1.6.0 and we'll also have new features added to the setup procedure.
Last but not least, development of v1.7.0 was started to support
Brink 
... Stay tuned!
