+ Build system:
+  * We moved to cmake as default build system. Autotools support will
+    be dropped soon. Check the FAQ for more info about how to use it.
+  * Greatly improved our cdash/ctest interactions
+    Check http://cdash.inria.fr/CDash/index.php?project=Simgrid
+  * Added memory checking tests with valgrind; lot of memleak fixing.
+    This may be the first release of simgrid with so few memory issues
+  * Added code coverage tests. 
+    Our coverage is still improvable, but at least we see it on cdash.
