Firmware R072 is out

[LGNilsson]

You can now upgrade the Almond+ to firmware R072. Please update using the LCD UI if you've installed R069 or later. Instructions can be found here - http://wiki.securifi.com/index.php?title=How_to_upgrade_the_Firmware_-_Almond%2B_2014

This is a major release based on R070. We've made some major improvements to the rules UI, added translations (still a work in progress) and added/fixed/improved a lot of things.   
We've made a quick guide over at the blog that explains how to set up various rules - http://blog.securifi.com/how-to-create-simple-home-automation-rules-on-the-almond
We will continue to post guides on how to create various rules over the next few days and week to help everyone get started.
