after long years of waiting (foir you) and hard labour (for me), Gem 0.93 has been released today.
large parts of the underlying engine have been re-written to give you a better experience!
binaries are available for w32 (installer & zip), for the brave and adventurous there is the source code. binaries for OSX and not available yet, but we hope to get them online soonish.
grab it while it's hot: http://gem.iem.at/releases/0.93.0
alternatively you can get the files from https://sourceforge.net/projects/pd-gem
