+This release includes a first implementation of Project Recovery for Mantidplot to allow Mantid to handle scanning workspaces, Mantid maintains a recovery script while running, in the event of a crash or unexpected shutdown of Mantidplot Mantid will attempt to recover to it's most recent recovery checkpoint.  This feature may not fully recover in all situations, but we will continue to improve it in future releases. There have also been some significant performance enhancements in the instrument view.

+look at the release notes, which are filled with details of the
+important changes and improvements in many areas. The development team
