2.8.0
ce4d356

Next to a considerable number of bugfixes and improvements, a nice amount of new editing features made it into this build. There's a new way to select items by filter, it's possible to retain grouping information when copy-pasting between DarkRadiant sessions, a new "Select Parent Entities" command has been added, and more.
It's recommended to prefer this version over any previous release.

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