 ##### Parameters
-  * Stop Ticks - ticks below or above main order to place stop / other order
+  * Stop Ticks - ticks below or above main order to place stop / other order
+
+## Splitter
+The splitter is useful for pro-rata markets where you want to vary your exposure independent of the order quantity that you want to fill.  The splitter will complete when the number of fills reaches or exceeds the order quantity but it will put exposed_qty total size on the market. Splitter favors order size over queue position.
+
+If exposed_qty is set to 0 the splitter will continue to exist in the Order Book but will cancel all of its child orders.  This makes it a useful building block for custom algos that need to implement a 'paused' state.

+##### Parameters
+  * exposed_qty - The total quantity to expose on the market.
+  * max_order_qty - The maximum size of a single order.

+## 2.7.2
+### User Visible Changes
+  - Changed the login dialog to avoid leaking workspace names from other users. 
+  - Added new Splitter algo. From the manual: The splitter is useful
+    for pro-rata markets where you want to vary your exposure
+    independent of the order quantity that you want to fill.  The
+    splitter will complete when the number of fills reaches or exceeds
+    the order quantity but it will put exposed_qty total size on the

+### Internal Changes
+  - Made spark more resilient to lack of connectivity to the CME web site for downloading of templates. 
+  
+## 2.7.1
+### User Visible Changes
+  - Fixed some issues with the Cover algo, where in some circumstances
+    it would erroneously cancel launched hedges on completion.
+	
+## 2.7.0
+### User Visible Changes
+  - Allowed algos to process "in-flight" fills while shutting down
+  - Changed the cover algo to continue to hedge while shutting down
+### API Changes
+  - Changed the API so that algos do not fully terminate until all
+    their children are terminated. Algos that are in the process of
+    shutting down in response to a complete or cancel call will still
+    receive child updates, which they can use to calculate and report
+    an accurate fill count (during this shutdown stage algos cannot
+    create, cancel or update children). A new IAlgoServices method,
+    is_shutting_down(), can be used to determine if an algo is
+    shutting down.
+

+     - This allows multiple standard configuration for the ladder, optionally with security specific variations
+  - Made Cover order more independent from its hedging chidren:
+     - Cover continues to operate even if an hedging child is canceled
+	 - When a cover is canceled it will detach from any running hedging children, instead of canceling them
+  - Changed Lean, Join and Cover algos to hide themselves in the ladder once they have completed their work 
+  - Changed manual fills to appear in day PnL rather than in the SOD records
+  - Add buy/sell coloring to fill rows in fills window
+  - Streamlined the mini order book:
