Plucker 1.6.1 is now available, and follows closely on the tails of
Plucker 1.6, and closes a lot of open issues reported by users and other
developers working with Plucker and Plucker projects.
Most of the changes in 1.6.1 are internal, and no major "features"
were added. This is a cleanup and bugfix release. Below is a list of the
fixes applied to this version.
Any bugs you find, please report them in our bug tracker. Make sure
to search existing bug reports for similar errors before posting a new bug
report. Many times, bugs are reported in duplicate by several users because
they didn't search the existing bugs reported for similar problems.

Development stuff:
* External links and UInt16 uids fix
* History recording and seamless fragments bug fix

Please remember, this is a bugfix and cleanup point release. This
release does not include Plucker Desktop or any other GUI-based Plucker
tools, other than the standard viewer, distiller, and documentation. If you
require other components to test this build, please get them from CVS
directly, or download them from the project sites themselves:
* Plucker Desktop (Windows, Linux, and OSX Desktop GUI for Plucker)
http://desktop.plkr.org/
* JPluck Java-based Desktop (Now includes Plucker 1.6.x and runs anywhere
Java 1.4 runs)

These files below are provided in BitTorrent format for your
convenience. BitTorrent is a file distribution protcol that gains its
advantages when more people are downloading at the same time. If you use
BitTorrent to download these files, please remember leave your BitTorrent
client running. Peer-to-peer only works when there are peers on the network!
Keeping your client open makes it easier for everyone else to get the files
at a faster speed than if you did not keep your client open. Please help
spread the bandwidth around, don't just download and close your client and
leave!

If you want to help distribute Plucker to others, please download
the Zip-o-Torrents file, unpack it, and run your multi-torrent BitTorrent
client on all of the files inside of it (or at least the 1.6.1 downloads and
latest Plucker Desktop versions).
