------------------------
This is a fairly nontrivial upgrade, mainly because it includes
a major new version of Singular, and updates to Linbox. There's
also new graph theory-related code that came out of the summer REU
at Washington and optimizations to mwrank. If you wrote something,
sent me a patch, and it isn't in here, definitely send me an email
with a new version of the patch.
Thanks to the many many people who contributed to this release,
including M Abshoff, M Albrecht, C Citro, C Pernet, D Kohel, G Nebe, D
Joyner, E Kirkman, R Miller, S Howe, J Mohler, B moretti, J. Rivas,
and anybody else who I didn't mention explicitly.
High level change log:
* m albrecht: upgrade to singular-3-0-3 (this was nontrivial)
* m albrecht, c pernet: new version of givaro that fixes some bugs. (gcc-4.2 support)
* m abshoff, c pernet, w stein: new version of linbox that fixes some bugs. (gcc-4.2 support)
* d kohel, g nebe, et al.: Genus computation for quadratic forms (not really made public yet
but it is there in quadratic_forms/genus).
* e kirkman, r miller: graph database improvements (which are generally useful).
* s howe, r miller: bruhat intervals
* j mohler: programming guide improvement
* b moretti: cayley graphs
* juan m bello rivas: fix so clisp can be built in the background.
* w stein: upgraded sympy to version 0.5.1, whose main features included much optimization
* w stein: implement computing half_integer_weight_modform_basis function for computing
a basis for half-integral modular forms of given weight, level, and character.
