I heard that the 7/31 was the latest release, the announcement was just running behind.
Stardock, any chance of a what's new highlight of the docs?

Whatever the titlepage says, the documentation contains all the new features by the looks of it.
I second a what's new or better yet, a history section so we can see what was added when.
For this release I belive these are the new additions:
In Object namespace:
* Object.SetScript(name)
* Object.Cursor
In System namespace:
* System.DownloadFile(remoteUrl, localPath, bAsync)
* System.SendRequest(remoteUrl, postParams, bAsync)
* System.SimpleWrite(path, content, param)
* System.SimpleRead(path, param)
In DesktopX namespace:
* DesktopX.Exit(params)
* DesktopX.MsgBox(msg, flags, title, owner)
