+The Clean Diaper Release, a.k.a. SimGrid is leak-free. Major changes:
+
+ * Preliminary DVFS support to track the energy consumption
+ * Java is back in the main package (and is very stable).
+ * The storage sub-modules is now believed to be usable.
+ * SMPI is now very stable (we pass most MPICH tests).
+ * Lots of memory leaks were corrected in this release.
+ * Verification and model checking further improved:
+   liveness+SMPI works; reduction through state equality detection
+ Plus the usual load of bug fixes and small improvements
