+[0.2]
+In this release you can find some bug and compilation fixes, improved Windows
+support and some new features including a new sensor and features to facilitate
+agent debugging and development. It also provides a more deterministic behavior
+for agents which should make them more reliable.
+
+* New features:
+ - An Accelerometer sensor which reports the linear acceleration
+ - A "Sync Mode" operation is introduced. In this mode, the server will not
+ advance to the next cycle until all connected agents send a "(syn)" command
+ to the server. You can use this mode by setting "agentSyncMode" to true in
+ simspark.rb (or spark.rb)
+ - Simulator will run in simulation time mode instead of real time
+ if "useRealTime" variable is set to false in simspark.rb (or spark.rb)
+
+* More deterministic agent-server communication
+ - Simspark will now collect received commands right before sending
+ sense data of the last cycle. So, any commands which is sent by agents
+ after receiving new sense data will be executed in the next cycle, not the
+ current one. This results in a more deterministic behavior, and agents'
+ efficiency should not change between remote and local runs considerably.
+
+* More convenience:
+ - Simspark should always accept connections. No more "Connection refused"
+ messages and the need to wait for simspark's network port to be freed!
+ - To make changes to most of the resource files (e.g. simspark.rb), you can
+ create a copy in ~/.simspark directory and make desired changes there. The
+ directory structure of the original files should be preserved (e.g.
