Gerbil v0.18.1

We are happy to announce the release of Gerbil v0.18.1, NimzoLarsen.

Gerbil v0.18.1 is a patch release, that consolidates the foundations laid out by v0.18 and fixes minor bugs, paving the way for Gerbil v1.0 in the near future. Since this is a patch for the v0.18 Nimzowitsch release, we call it NimzoLarsen after the most famous Chess opening popularized by Nimzowitsch.

See the release announcement for high level release notes.
