A few minutes ago Arduino 0017 was officially released, so fire up your browser and start downloading! You can grab it for Windows, Linux, and MacOS from
arduino.cc/en/Main/Software
I've been using the beta for a little while and it has some very nice improvements over 0016. The #1 fix is the ability to have multiple projects open simultaneously, which makes it so much easier to copy/paste code from one place to another. The examples have also been updated thanks to some very nice work by Tom Igoe.
From the changelog:
Documentation / examples
* Many new and revised examples from Tom Igoe.
Core / libraries
* Updated LiquidCrystal library by Limor Fried. See reference for details.
* Updated Firmata library to version 2.1 (rev. 25).
* Replaced the Servo library with one (MegaServo) by Michael Margolis.
Supports up to 12 servos on most Arduino boards and 48 on the Mega.
* Improving the accuracy of the baud rate calculations for serial communication (fixing double-speed problems on 8 MHz Arduino boards).
Thanks to gabebear.
Environment
* Synchronized with the Processing 1.0.3 code base (rev. 5503), bringing many improvements (listed below).
* New icons and about image by Thomas Glaser (envis precisely).
* Support for multiple sketch windows.
* The serial monitor now has its own window.
* Comment / Uncomment menu item (in Edit) and keyboard shortcut.
* Increase and Decrease Indent menu items (in Edit) and keyboard shortcuts.
* Support for third-party libraries in the SKETCHBOOK/libraries folder.
* Libraries are now compiled with the sketch, eliminating the delay when switching boards and the need to delete .o files when changing library source code.
* Arduino now comes as an app file (in a dmg) on the Mac.
* Adding the Arduino Nano w/ ATmega328 to the Tools - Board menu.
