+SimGrid (3.14.159) stable; urgency=low
+
+ The previous release was only a crude approximation of a Pi release;
+ this one should be a bit better.
+
+ - Revert a last minute change that broke on Mac OSX.
+ - Fix the changelog and NEWS files.
+ - Improve the documentation, in particular of the routing module.
+ - Integrate some patches flying around in Debian.

- Dropped functions and features
+ * smpi/cpu-threshold:-1 should become smpi/simulate-computation:no
+   smpi/running-power    is renamed to smpi/host-speed
+
+ * smpi/grow-injected-times option to enable or disable multiplication of the 
+   timings injected in MPI_Iprobe, or MPI_Test. Enabled by default, which can 
+   make simulation less precise (but also much faster).
+
+ * smpirun script should be (much) faster for large deployments.
+
+ * SMPI tracing : fixed issue with poor matching of send/receives.
+
+ * Replay : Fix broken waitall
+
+ New functions and features
+ * MSG_parallel_task_execute_with_timeout, to timeout computations.

+ * VM properties. Since msg_vm_t are msg_host_t, just use

+ * VM I/O related things:
+   - Ignored parameter of vm_create: core_nb, disk_path and disk_size.
+   - Unimplemented save/restore methods
+ * MSG_as_router_get_property_value() was redundent with
+   MSG_environment_as_get_property_value(). 
+   - Removed MSG_as_router_*propert*() functions
+   - Added MSG_environment_as_set_property_value() for consistency
+ * xbt heterogeneous dictionnaries (created with xbt_dict_new()). 
+   Well, they are still there for now, but deprecated with a warning.
