v0.11

Overview

This release updates to the Open Source Shen Kernel version 22.0. This brings a much faster startup time when running Shen executables. The command line handling has changed slightly as it is now using the OS Kernel 22.0 launcher extension for handling arguments.

This update requires a new version of the Wasp virtual machine if you plan to do development from the Wasp REPL. A bug fix changed the format of the data that is appended to generated Wasp/Shen executables. The Wasp stub files need new versions as a result. New stub files have been regenerated for Linux x86_64, static Linux x86_64, Windows 64 bit and Mac OS X. The README details where to get these from.
