-## About the Latest Release (0.14.0)
+In this version we added a [non commercial section](https://kaolin.readthedocs.io/en/latest/modules/kaolin.non_commercial.html) under [NSCL license](LICENSE.NSCL). See [The license section for more info](#Licenses) for more details.
 
-In this version we added a [conversion Op for mesh to SPC](https://kaolin.readthedocs.io/en/latest/modules/kaolin.ops.conversions.html#kaolin.ops.conversions.unbatched_mesh_to_spc),
-which allows turning meshes into Structured Point Cloud, our octree based representation.
-In addition, [interactive 3D visualizers](https://kaolin.readthedocs.io/en/latest/modules/kaolin.visualize.html) for Jupyter notebooks
-and a [SurfaceMesh class](https://kaolin.readthedocs.io/en/latest/modules/kaolin.rep.surface_mesh.html#kaolin-rep-surfacemesh) (see tutorials below).
+In this new section we implemented [features for Flexicubes](https://kaolin.readthedocs.io/en/latest/modules/kaolin.non_commercial.html#kaolin.non_commercial.FlexiCubes) a method to extract meshes from scalar fields. See more information in [the official repository](https://github.com/nv-tlabs/FlexiCubes) which is now using Kaolin's implementation.
