Release 2016.40. Our first non Beta release. Beta vs Non-Beta? This release had a focus on closing bugs. You should be able to use this version for your 2016 shows. We will continue to release code every 1-2 weeks for the rest of the year. New functionality, more bug fixes. Use this one or download the latest, all the developers are always running on the latest code. I will use R40 while at the Expo.
