Not a major release this time. This should hopefully solve some of the problems you've all been bitching at me about.
The loadtimes are a bit faster - but you need to bear in mind that the first time you load a map it takes a long time. This is an issue with all mods - not just this one. I'd like to add a progress bar when it's loading to reassure you that it hasn't crashed - but this doesn't seem possible in the current SDK.
If you experience crashing when using the Physics Properties gun you need to completely wipe your gmod folder - chances are that you have installed a menu modification (such as 'UGM') and that's causing the crash.

You can download gmod 8.3b here. This will be the last update for a while (I know I say that all the time) but I really need to get working on Facewound again.
You can download new maps, models and mods for Garry's Mod in our forums. And if you get stuck and don't know how to use a specific feature of the mod, or just want to read the history, you should read the Garry's Mod wiki
