            1 Changes from 0.4 (June 2011) to 0.5
            2 ===================================
            3 
            4 -  Switch to PETSc 3.2
            5 -  Move to github.com
            6 -  Add regional modeling tools: pismo, Python tools
            7 -  Improve the IceFlowLaw class by moving physical constants out of it
            8 -  Implement ``-o_format [netcdf4_parallel, pnetcdf]``
            9 -  Implement ``-o_order [xyz, yxz, zyx]``
           10 -  Implement ``-e_age_coupling``
           11 -  Improved the implementation of PISM's basal yield stress model
           12 -  Separated flow laws used in SIA and SSA code. New command-line
           13    options: ``-sia_e``, ``-ssa_e``. New config. parameters:
           14    ``sia_enhancement_factor``, ``ssa_enhancement_factor``
           15 -  Fixed ``-topg_to_phi``: now it takes 4 numbers (no special value in
           16    the ocean)
           17 -  ``-pdd_annualized`` implemented, and recommended for degree-day
           18    scheme usage
           19 -  Flush time-series when ``-extra_files`` are written
           20 -  Improved documentation (mostly climate forcing code)
           21 -  Improved climate forcing code and its interface (in particular:
           22    consistent command-line options)
           23 -  Fixed numerous bugs
           24 -  Improved regridding code
           25 -  Implemented temperature-dependent conductivity and specific heat
           26    capacity of ice
           27 -  Model time is in seconds
           28 -  PISM uses time bounds, both in reporting code and code using forcing
           29    data
           30 -  Reported rates of change are computed as average rates over reporting
           31    intervals, by differencing cumulative quantities
           32 -  Reporting: daily, monthly, yearly
           33 -  Added support for the Gregorian calendar
           34 -  PISM uses Proj.4 to compute latitudes, longitudes, and cell areas
           35 -  Implemented ``-tauc_to_phi``
           36 -  Updated and improved modeling examples
           37 -  Removed the pgrn executable; all whole-Greenland examples use pismr
           38 -  Removed the EISMINT-Ross example and the pross executable
           39 -  Inverse modeling tools (not part of the release)
