J806 has survived its beta program and is now available as a final release.

J806 is solid. There are few good reasons for not moving to it promptly.
Our community is small enough that we don't need unnecessary fragmentation
of forum discussions that need to mention version. Over the next few
months, let's all get on the same page.

Go to the download page (you may have to F5 refresh your old pages) and
install J806!

This is a big step forward for J. The only hiccup is the requirement for
64bit avx and nonavx binaries. We'll have to live with this complication
for a while as the number of nonavx systems dwindle. It is awkward that the
best packaging solution was to provide different install packages. If the
avx install crashes due to an illegal avx instruction, fall back to the
nonavx install.

Get your J806 system now!

P.S. We already have a few things for J807 beta and expect that to be
underway in the new year.
