Update on the 2.0.0 release & the full manual

We are getting close to the 2.0.0 stable release and the full manual. The manual will soon become available on the website and also in PDF format. Both versions will be identical and once released, will start to follow the APP release cycle and thus will stay up-to-date to the latest APP version.

Once 2.0.0 is released, the price for APP will increase. Owner's license holders will not need to pay an upgrade fee to use 2.0.0, neither do Renter's license holders.

Hello, I've been having some major problems getting clean multichannel blending results if I attempt to do all channels together at once in APP. To work around this issue I have been integrating a mosaic for each channel and registering them later in Pixinsight. The problem I am encountering now is I have a 25 panel mosaic of andromeda that cannot be registered properly in either PI or APP if I try to align each color channel mosaic. 

So now I need to be able to integrate and stitch my color mosaics at together in one go in APP, because I cannot get them to register any other way. But sadly when I integrate the panels together in APP with multiple color channels, it will attempt to normalize one channel with a panel from a different frame, which creates a terrible result in the blend. 

A very simple fix would be to allow per-channel normalization references so that I can get clean blends for all my color channels.

@astrofalls What version of APP are you on? If not on 2.0.0-beta6, does this problem also happen with that version?
