Changes:

"Lazy Ignorance SMP" is a new Lazy SMP variant which I described on the Computer Chess Club forum. It resulted in minor gains on low core counts, which became hard to measure on high core counts.

Singular Extensions and Counter Move History are search features found in top open source programs such as Stockfish, Ethereal and Xiphos. These features resulted in large gains in self play tests.

The timing of this release is partially due to the increase in playing strength and partially due to the upcoming TCEC S15 competition.
I do not have access to a Windows computer at the moment, so the Windows binaries are cross compiled and at the time of writing completely unchecked.
