Anyone know where I can find the release notes for this version of preform? Just curious what is new and different.

Also, for future references, does Formlabs generally put out any news when a new release is available?

Thank you!

PS - any other insights on if I can ever back-rev Preform (if a new version has a problem, etc), would also be greatly appreciated.

EDIT - oops found it!
