+
+ * Preliminary DVFS support to track the energy consumption
+ * Java is back in the main package (and is very stable).

+ * Verification and model checking further improved:
+   liveness+SMPI works; reduction through state equality detection
+ Plus the usual load of bug fixes and small improvements
