An update of Solarus 1.0 is available!

This update fixes a bunch of bugs of previous versions (some of them were very old!), and improves the documentation as well as the quest editor. It is recommended to upgrade.

Because it is a patch release (1.0.0 to 1.0.1), there is no change in the format of data files or in the Lua API, everything remains compatible.
