+ General:
+ * Port to gcc 4.x
+ There was a stack corruption somewhere, visible only when optimizing
+ with these versions [Vince]
+
+ SURF:
+ * complete rewrote of the KCCFLN05 workstation model. It is now an
+ extension of the classical CLM03 model that gracefully handles
+ failures. This is now the standard model for MSG and GRAS. It doesn't
+ handle parallel tasks yet though. [AL]
+ * Bug fix: Weights were not correctly set in the network part.
+ WARNING: This may have resulted in incorrect results with simulations
+ where there are more than one flow on a given link. [AL]
+
+ SURF, MSG, GRAS:
+ * After a (long ?) discussion on simgrid-devel, we have decided that the
+ convention we had on units was stupid. That is why it has been decided
+ to move from (MBits, MFlops, seconds) fo (Bits, Flops, seconds).
+ WARNING : This means that all previous platform files will not work as
+ such with this version! A warning is issued to ask users to update
+ their files. [AL]
+ A conversion script can be found in the contrib module of the CVS, under
+ the name contrib/platform_generation/surfxml_update.pl [MQ]
+
+ MSG,GRAS:
+ * Bug fix: Processes were started in reverse order, wrt deployment file.
+ WARNING: if your code relies on this bug, please fix it. [AL]
+ * Bug fix: Add a test in MSG_task_execute to stop whenever a task is
+ being executed on two different locations. [AL]
+ * Bug fix: Failures are now better supported thanks to Derrick's tests
+ (there was many failure situations I hadn't thought of and that weren't
+ correctly handled). [AL]
+ * New function: MSG_host_is_avail indicates you whether a given m_host_t
+ is up or down.
+
+ GRAS:
+ * New! a real RPC mecanism, as it ought to be since too long. [MQ]
+ Exception occuring on server-side are propagated back to client (!).
+
+ API CHANGE: the callback changed their prototype. Change:
+ int my_handler(gras_socket_t expeditor, void *payload_data) {
+ to:
+ int my_handler(gras_msg_cb_ctx_t ctx , void *payload_data) {
+ gras_socket_t expeditor=gras_msg_cb_ctx_from(ctx);
+ and you're set.
+ * New! function: gras_msg_handleall to deal with all messages arriving
+ within a given period.
+ * New! gras processes display their backtrace when they get a SIGUSR1
+ or when Ctrl-C is pressed. Use Ctrl-C Ctrl-C to exit.
+ Sweet to debug RL processes [MQ]
+
+ AMOK:
+ * Bandwidth module:
+ - Do not force experiment sizes to be expressed in kb, or it becomes
+ impossible to mesure the latency this way (needs one byte-long tests)
+ WARNING: this changes the amok_bw_* function semantic. [MQ]
+ - Implements the link saturation stuff. [MQ]
+ * Peer management module:
+ New! module factorizing code that we wrote over and over [MQ].
