The following improvements have been made:
- Support for C# 7.

All users who are experiencing build issues should upgrade to this version; a number of bugs have been fixed with this release.
WARNING: Linux users on kernel version 4.8.x and newer will need to apply a sysctl parameter to support our binaries. Without this parameter, our binaries will not work on your platform. This is a known issue which we will address with a future release.
