Yes, that really does say 0.93...
I had just finished uploading the 0.92 release when Wookey reported a
problem, so I held off announcing it here while I investigated. It
turned out to be a problem with the articulation point code (this
splits up the network into sections which can be solved separately).
I know where the problem lies, but since time is short I've just
disabled the problem code for now.

Checking the logs I noticed several people had spotted the new release
on the web site and downloaded it. If you have, you needn't bother
redownloading the documentation - the contents of the 0.92 and 0.93
documentation archives are identical.
Here's the user visible changes for 0.93, and also 0.92 (since I
didn't announce that here):
Changes in 0.93:
* Quick fix for problem with finding articulation points in
particularly contorted components with 2 or more fixed points - for
now each component is solved separately, but they aren't split at
articulation points
* Turned off some debug code left active by mistake
* Test suite was missing a file
Changes in 0.92:
* 3dtodxf's DXF output can be opened by AutoCAD 13, 14 and 2000, as
well as ArcView 3.x. Adobe Illustrator 8.0, and CorelDraw 8.
[checked by Mike Yocum]
* HTML documentation now has meaningful filenames (no more "x532.htm")
* RISC OS documentation zip file now has correct filetype for
Postscript version of docs
* RISC OS binary distribution now includes !CLIcon GUI front end
* Changed naming scheme for .zip archives to be more consistent
* Added OLDNEWS with details of user-visible changes in much older
versions
Cheers,
