[Roxy]

OpenScad has been stagnant for a whole year. No bug fixes or improvements. It almost looked like the development effort was dead. Well, it turns out they were very busy!!! There is a new release 2015.03 that adds a lot of important features and simplifies the code to do a number of things. It seems very stable and so far, it appears to be fully backward compatible.

Two of the best things in the new version are the ability to generate text directly to put on your models and the offset() command.

Actually... There is one more thing that is super important. The ability to set and reset a variable within any scope. This dramatically simplifies a number of things.
