+The "OMG! They Killed Kenny!" version. Major changes:
+
+ * Java and Ruby bindings were removed from the main archive
+ - They are now distributed separately
+ * GRAS is not considered as stable anymore, but experimental. Sorry.
+ * First support for parallel simulation:
+ - Can run the user code of any simulation in parallel.
+ - Basic support for multi-cores hosts in platform files
+ * Improved P2P support:
+ - Peer tag in platform files for DSL connected nodes
+ - Vivaldi routing scheme for lightweigted yet accurate models
+ * Improved SMPI: Faster Fortran, automatic privatization of C globals
+ * Tracing: trace contains the full platform hierarchy
+ exactly as declared using the ASes of the platform file
+
+Plus numerous other goodies (check the ChangeLog for details)
