Happy one-year anniversary, everyone!



First off: since the update's final version will be out in under a week I'll be saving all the fancy stuff for a later announcement post, so I'll try to avoid doing a big ol' preamble here.

Second: I know this is long overdue (but I'll save the apologies for the previously-mentioned later post).

Third: this is the COMPLETE version of the update and is pretty much the same version that'll be officially released on the 25th give or take a few bug fixes that'll probably happen between now and then. So, finally, here it is!
