Semi-stable release: crashes occasionally in near-mate positions (once every few thousand games)
Update 10/29: crashes appear to occur more frequently than expected. This will be patched as soon as possible.

Roughly 2600 ELO
Regressions vs. 0.1:
+201 in 5000 games at 3+0.02
+250 in 2000 games at 15+0.05

Major changes from 0.1:
Bugfixes (LMR and hashing, UCI timing parsing)
Better scaling
Extensions and more pruning (futility and late move)
Improved eval (passed pawns, king safety, basic endgames)
