Dear Martians!
We survived the first week on Mars!
After releasing patch v0.119.5, for the last 2 days we've been working on a slightly bigger patch in which we wanted to address many of the most important issues. The testing of build v0.120 took us longer than planned, but we expect that in about 5 hours we will be able to put it on the public_testing branch.
