Regarding a Synthesis Issue (Sep. 29)
As of the Sep. 29, 2010 version update, we have confirmed an issue where synthesis attempts are more likely to fail due to the basic commands not working as intended.
Investigation and recovery work is currently underway.
We ask for your patience in this matter until this issue is resolved.
