Fluidity 4.1.10 released

Written for Fluidity by Tim Greaves on 2013-08-16

very pleased to announce the release of Fluidity
4.1.9, a milestone release of Fluidity containing
updates since 2013-02-27.

Users of Intel compilers should take note that as of
4.1.10 Fluidity does not support ASCII GMSH input
when built with Intel compilers. Additionally, not
all short and medium tests are known to pass with
Intel, although they are known to pass with GCC; this
is a longstanding issue and not a regression from
4.1.9, and will be targetted to be fixed in 4.1.11.

CGAL users should also be aware that it has been
reported that builds with CGAL enabled may fail; this
is also believed to be a longstanding issue which
will be targetted to fix in 4.1.11.

Users who have installed Fluidity on Precise,
Quantal, or Raring via the binary package system
should receive this update through the fluidity-core
PPA within the next few days; binary packages may be
temporarily unavailable during the rebuild phase.
Users on Ubuntu Oneiric should note that as of 4.1.10
binary packages are no longer being produced as the
distribution is out of Ubuntu support.

Fluidity 4.1.6 released

Written for Fluidity by Tim Greaves on 2012-04-04

We are very pleased to announce the release of Fluidity 4.1.6, a point-release with changes including updates to code and tests to fix the build and testing process for Ubuntu Precise and fix the build on HECToR, and changes removing options to use the CV Ultimate limiter from metric advection, and fixing parallel scalar dg subcycling when configured with debugging.

Please note that as of the end of April 2012 Ubuntu drop support for Maverick (10.10) and accordingly Fluidity will, from that point, no longer support Maverick through binary builds and there will be minimal or no testing of Fluidity on Maverick.
