Since we've got several interesting measurements running in the lab at the moment, our scripts are receiving a lot of attention. Which means we can already release a new feature (and bugfix) version, Lab::Measurement 3.10. Packages are on CPAN (and in Gentoo portage); you'll find the major changes listed below. Cheers!
