today we celebrate another neat release of aurora :). this time the motto was all around bug-fixing, stabilizing and grinding the corners. apart from this, some significant things have changed under the hood:

• .htaccess won't be written automatically anymore
• auth, db, model and validation have been extracted into a plugin
• optional extension.method call style
• external calls with extmod
• support colliding method names across extensions
• semi caching while in development environment
• calling methods from appl or lib emit signals
• adaptive template rendering
• user-definable open basedirs
