This is the fifth bug fix release of the 2.3 series.

MorpheusML was extended by two valuable features: InitCellObjects learned hexagon/honeycomb shapes and rotation for all shapes. Furthermore, StartTime and StopTime can now be given as expressions, something that we overlooked earlier.

The simulator received an improved integer scale palette selection in Gnuplotter, performance improvements in the PDE solver code, and faster and more efficient memory storage for spatial domains (like cells).

See the blog post and the changelog for details.
