* output some statistics;
* support material for internal perimeters;
* more GUI work;
* more fill patterns.
## Is it usable already? Any known limitation?
Sure, it's very usable. Remember that:
* it only works well with manifold and clean models (check them with Meshlab or Netfabb or http://cloud.netfabb.com/).
* more fill patterns;
* a more complete roadmap is needed too ;-)
## How to install?
It's very easy. See the [project homepage](http://slic3r.org/)
