Among other things, this release fixes some problems with uploading and downloading shared solutions, although a couple of issues still remain. The upload/download issues are probably referenced under the "more robust communication/error handling with Foldit server" point in the release notes.

In Open/Share Solutions, the upload button now immediately shows the upload on the left side. Previously, it was necessary to use the "Refresh Shared Solutions" button to see the upload.

The download button now works, although there can be a noticeable lag before the download appears on the right side .

Selecting a solution on the left side, then clicking "Load" still causes an error. The solution in question appears on the right side when Open/Share Solutions is reopened.

Deleting a solution on the left side still does not change the display. It's necessary to restart Foldit to get the correct list of shared solutions.

As a bonus, this release appears to fix a crash when switching between a small molecule puzzle and a different puzzle type when the small molecule properties window has been opened. The small molecule properties now displays all properties, along with the chemical formula and SMILES string for the compound. A button allows copying the SMILES to the clipboard. There's no ability to paste in a different SMILES, however. The release notes mention "improvement to Ligand Properties Panel".

The release may contain additional fixes, as suggested by the "fixes trim/untrim behavior with residue mutation". This may apply in some beginner puzzles which still allow mutation, although it's not clear when the trim tool is involved in that.
