* Bugfix: Task.setDataSize() only changed the C world, not the value
cached in the Java world
+ MSG:
+ * Dramatically change the way files are handled. API and internals changed, but
+ this part of MSG was not considered as production grade either.
+ * Add explicit synchronization facilities through semaphores
+
SMPI:
* SMPI is not built as a separate library anymore, it's now included in
libsimgrid.
