I've just released Sil 1.0.1
It is mainly a bug fixing release, and its main feature is probably that it should allow Pav to get the ladder working properly. It should be savefile compatible with 1.0 but I would recommend making a copy of your savefile before loading with 1.0.1 just in case there is a bug that I haven't spotted with the conversion. Here is the full change list:

It should be savefile compatible with 1.0 but I would recommend making a copy of your savefile before loading with 1.0.1 just in case there is a bug that I haven't spotted with the conversion. Here is the full change list:
Code:
- interface
- corrected the keypad in the (?) screen
- made Angband-like keyset use (+) instead of (/)
- brought back the (M) map command due to popular request
- using torches and lanterns now refuels your current one by default (if you are already wielding one)
- if you want to swap torches/lanterns, just remove the existing one first
- it now warns you about overfueling
- display
- added a 'Score' line to the character dumps to help with the Angband ladder
- made the combat rolls window more compact and more flexible
- removed monster health, alertness and morale info for the target if out of sight
- fixed display of "Mindless"
- fixed display of hits doing 10 damage
- stopped printing an empty description for one handed weapons
- added weights of weapons to character dumps
- fixed display of dates
- now shows artefacts' abilities in the Artefact info screen
- now tags the finding of an artefact with the level you identify it on
- but *also* shows the level it was found on if that was different
- no longer tells you that you didn't enter a greater vault if you didn't discover the vault
- but you still can never find that vault again
- now displays the correct depth for the note about missing a greater vault
- instead of the new depth you went to from that level
- adds a small screenshot to character dumps for dead characters
- potion of true sight now gives (temporary) resistance to blindness
- reduced the Will of cat-type creatures
- making them more vulnerable to being put to sleep/terrified
- abilities
- fixed the second prerequisite for Strength (to Knock Back)
- made the Song of Aule cost only 1/3 of a point of voice per turn
- the Song of Freedom now disarms and unlocks chests
- the Song of Freedom now has all its difficulty levels in skill checks reduced by 5
- items
- added Lesser Jewels
- fixed a bug where items with different prot values could be stacked together
- fixed a bug where weapons of Fury gave Knock Back instead of Whirlwind
- and daggers of accompaniment gave Rapid Attack instead of Two Weapon Fighting
- allows {special} items to stack before being identified if they have the same type
- most useful for found stacks of {special} throwing items
- staves of revelations now work in the Throne Room (if you get one there, good luck to you!)
- artefacts
- some minor changes to rarity and to the artefacts themselves
- monsters
- decreased the evasion of the Cat warrior family of creatures by a small amount
- traps
- change "trap doors" to "false floors"
- trap doors are a bit too comic in flavour
- the effect is basically the same
- tweaked to avoid ever killing characters with the damage
- staircases
- no longer take 100 turns of food and game clock
- the forcing downwards time limits still avoid the infinite levels problem
- the 'stair-scumming' problem of going up and down repeatedly is now avoided with trapped stairs
- trapped stairs
- there is a chance that the stairs give way beneath you like a trap door / false floor
- this chance is miniscule or even zero in normal play
- but it goes up the more you use the stairs in quick succession
- attempts to stairscum will quickly lead to being injured on a level with no escape
- we think this is pretty difficult to abuse..
