I realize this is hot on the heels of v.91, but I figure it is a good time to put this out. The changelog has just over 50 entries which puts it pretty close to the v.91 release.
The major things in .92 are the example characters are up to date on the current rules, some revamping of the character creation process such as adding an economic background and a young adult background, tweaks on the event tables, increased amounts of credits from events, increased severance package amounts, some restructuring of the rules to follow the creation process, a new career (Media), and psi options to a lot of the existing careers. Some of the changes (Appendix P) still need to be completed.
Version 0.92 will be available on DTRPG.com in a few minutes from the time of this post.
