And yes, its now free as intended by the GPL, you are encouraged to make donations though. Making a donation will add you to my list of supported clients, you then get priority support, and if your donation exceeds ZAR 1000.00 p/a I will even send you up to three CDs with the latest major release for that year.
Supported clients are also notified of any bugs and fixes via email as they occur.
Enhancements:

- The layout for templates and help was changed so more scenarios work straight out the box.
