Download Caliber 0.9.18

Also this Friday a new version of Caliber is ready for you. Caliber is an open source and cross platform e-book management tool. Among other things, it can copy e-books to and from readers and convert them to make them suitable for the various types of e-readers. It can also convert newspapers, magazines and news articles based on RSS feeds into e-book format, and books can be purchased from well-known web stores. Below are the changes and improvements made this week.
