After much sweat and only a few tears, the latest incarnation of our
java client is nearing completion. It has been renamed Nexus, and will
soon be ready to rock your world. However, it is a very slight
possibility that there may be one (or egads, possibly two!) bugs, so we
have set it up for beta testing by the general public. It has many new
features and fixes. It even includes a new skinning system, which will
let us give you a super-cool new look (just as soon as the artists
finish working their magic). In the meantime, we ask your help in
checking this new client out and ironing out any rough spots. Simply go
to:

http://www.achaea.com/nexus/beta.php

and play away! That page contains a listing of most of the enhancements
as well as a link to a special bug submitting form (in case the
in-client one doesn't work for some reason). So do your worst! We hope
to add a lot of neat features to the client in the future, and this
release lays the groundwork for implementing those features (check out
graphical character creation for instance ;)).
