2.7.0
a6d5d7e

It's a maintenance build for the most part, but it contains a few smaller improvements. As usual, a bit of refactoring and improvement has been happening under the hood, but this shouldn't have any negative impact. It's recommended to prefer this version over any previous release.

A new DarkRadiant User Guide is being worked on and available on the website https://www.darkradiant.net/userguide (also accessible through the About > User Guide menu option).

A changelog of tracked issues can be found on the Bugtracker Changelog and the first post of the release announcement thread.
