A new release of Deluge BitTorrent Client was release yesterday with a collection of fixes to keep the 1.3 stable.
Deluge 1.3.12 is the first stable release in 2015. It brings following fixes and improvements:

- WebUI: Fixed i18n issue in Connection Manager which left users unable to connect
- WebUI: Increase cookie lifespan for display settings
- Console: Fixed ‘set and then get’ in config command
- Scheduler Plugin: Show current speed limit in statusbar
- Win32 packaging fixes.
