Recently a new flagship version of Slic3r was released, which rolls up all of the stuff that has been experimental for a long time into one stable release, version 1.2.9.
If you have been keeping up with Slic3r, I don't think there are any HUGE surprises. If you haven't looked for a few months, you may find it a much more mature, stable and feature-rich environment than you expect.
I'm not going to go into everything, just a few things that I am excited about and a few that bit me today. For a better rundown, see the blog post here: http://slic3r.org/blog/new-stable-1.2.9
You should go get it.( More text behind the cut )
