+
+ Models:
+ * Use the partial invalidation optimization by default for the
+ network too. Should produce the exact same results, only faster.
+
+ SimDag:
+ * Performance boost by using a swag internally to compute the set of
+ tasks that are finished and should constitute the return value of
+ SD_simulate.

+SimGrid (3.6.2) stable; urgency=low
+
+ The "Not coding new stuff allows to polish old things" release.
+
+ General
+ * New bindings to the NS3 packet level simulator (experimental)
+ * Use the raw (efficient) execution contextes instead of the sysv
+ (portable) ones when possible.
+ * libpcre is now mandatory in any cases since not using it led to
+ severe performance loss and possibly other issues
+ * Update the XML platforms:
+ - G5K: include the lastest machine in Nancy
+ - GridPP and LCG: new platforms
+ * Documentation was partially updated, at least (more to come)
+
+ Bug fixes, cosmetics and small improvements
+ * Free terminated processes before the end of the simulation to avoid
+ exhausting the memory of users having very dynamic amount of
+ processes.
+ * Bug fix and cosmetics about canceling non-running tasks
+ * Bug fix about the dot loader's issues when using libcgraph
+
+ Portability
+ * Create an installer for windows with nsis (amd64 and win32)
+ - Add an hello world project to illustrate simgrid project creation.
+ - Embed libpcre into the Simgrid installer to avoid
+ its compilation burden
+ * The raw execution contextes should work on Apple now
+ * Port to Windows 64 bits
+ - Sysv contextes now have an implementation for this arch
+ - GRAS communication features now support this arch
+ * Drop support for borland compiler on windows
+ - this code was not maintained, and we kinda depend on gcc nowadays
+ * Fix portability issues on kfreebsd/gnu: build error about semaphores
+ * Fix portability issue on unstable ubuntu: linker became picky on
+ argument order

+SimGrid (3.6.1) stable; urgency=low
+
+ The "Oops, we broke Macs too" release
+
+ Portability
+ * Fixed contextes detection so that raw ones are used when possible
+ * On Mac, do not use Posix Ucontextes with gcc v4.[1-5] since this
+ leads to a strange error, with user code segfaulting sometimes when
+ the generated code is not perfectly aligned (which is not
+ controlable from the user side, depends on the amount of code)
XBT
* New macro: CATCH_ANONYMOUS, which is like CATCH(e) but without argument.

SimGrid (3.6) stable; urgency=medium
- The Summer Release, also known as the "F*! They Killed Kenny!" version
+ The Summer Release, also known as the "OMG! They Killed Kenny!" version
Java and Ruby:
* Bindings now constitute their own package, separated from the main one.
combine Vivaldi based latencies with last-mile platforms.
SIMIX
+ * Added a check for NaN of IEEE754 infinite in the double entries of
+ the smx_user.c file
* Introduce a new context factory "raw", highly inspirated from the
ucontext factory, but using manually crafted functions in assembly to
do the work in an efficient manner.
