+ Infrastructure
+ * We now need python3 for our testing infrastructure.
SMPI
* Privatization is now activated by default in smpirun
values were ignored in some cases. The timings of these functions can now
be significantly different.
- Dropped functions and features
+ * smpi/cpu-threshold:-1 should become smpi/simulate-computation:no
+ smpi/running-power is renamed to smpi/host-speed
+
+ New functions and features
+ * MSG_parallel_task_execute_with_timeout, to timeout computations.

+ Dropped / renamed functions and features
* msg_mailbox_t and associated functions. Use s4u::Mailbox instead.
- MSG_mailbox_is_empty() -> Mailbox::empty()
- MSG_mailbox_front() -> Mailbox::front()
- MSG_mailbox_get_by_alias() -> simgrid::s4u::Mailbox::byName(name)
- MSG_mailbox_get_task_ext() -> MSG_task_receive_ext()
- MSG_mailbox_get_task_ext_bounded -> MSG_task_receive_ext_bounded
+ - MSG_host_(get/set)_params -> MSG_vm_(get/set)_params
