I just got an e-mail that VCarve Pro 10 has been released. To note, toolpaths with multiple clearance tools, a material database in the tools menu and support for creating Photo VCarving and lithophanes. Unfortunately missing from this update is the addition of adaptive clearing toolpaths.
Here is a list from the e-mail I received

Enhanced 2D Drawing
Intuitively drag multiple vectors and spans to quickly manipulate vectors.
PhotoVCarving
Convert photographs and images into toolpaths producing stylised engraved designs. ![Optimizing Clearance Tools in VCarving]
Optimizing Clearance Tools in VCarving
VCarve toolpath now supports multiple clearance tools for more efficient area clearance.
This short video shows all of the enhancements and new features in Version 10.
Bitmap Improvements
Directly rotate bitmap images using the rotation handles on the corner of the image.
Node Editing
Node editing can now be performed on multiple vectors at the same time for quicker editing.
Welding Text
The welding tool now intelligently welds overlapping text, keeping all of the internal regions of the text.
PhotoVCarving
Convert photographs and images into toolpaths producing stylised engraved designs.
Tool Database
The updated tool database makes naming and storing, machines, materials and tools easier.
Improved Nesting
See all the outer boundaries and outlines for parts, and nest on both sides.
Optimizing Clearance Tools
VCarve toolpath now supports multiple clearance tools for more efficient area clearance.
Level Cropping
Constrain a model to a chosen boundary and dynamically crop the contents.
Lithophane Preview
Easily preview the lithophane effect on simulated toolpaths with lithophane preview mode.
