Just a small question: Why hasn't been jcrossclient made part of the Crossfire 
project, but is being maintained separately ? It seems a bit strange to me, 
especially since there is obviously no licencing issue.

> Major changes of note since the previous release include:
>
> * Support for PNG images (and removal of xpm support)
>
> * Support for big images on the map view
>
> * Support for scaled big images in the ground view window ( as seen at
> https://sourceforge.net/project/screenshots.php?group_id=152431)
>
> * Numberpad now works for control
>
> * Names in the inventory window are no longer corrupted.
>
> * default view size is 15x15
>
> * Removal of fatigue bar
>
> Known Bugs:
> * Command window is a bit, interesting, and sometimes throws
> exceptions if the commands are malformated. Unlike other crossfire

>
> * Main window doesn't get created at the correct size, and must be

>
> * Map updates are somewhat slow, even on my AMD64 system, and the
> display can flicker if it has lots of activity (like rapid movement).
