This file records noteworthy changes.
+0.6.5 ()
+* Non-integer powers of a symbol are treated as constants by (l)degree() and
+ coeff(). Using these functions on an expression containing such powers used
+ to fail with an internal error message. The side-effect is that collect()
+ can be used on expressions which are not polynomials.
+* Added a man page for the ginac-config script.
+
+0.6.4 (10 August 2000)
+* Complete revamp of methods in class matrix. Some redundant (and poor)
+ implementations of elimination schemes were thrown out. The code is now
+ highly orthogonal, more flexible and much more efficient.
+* Some long standing and quite nasty bugs were discovered and fixed in the
+ following functions: add::normal(), heur_gcd(), sr_gcd() and Order_eval().
+
+0.6.3 (25 July 2000)
+* Derivatives are now assembled in a slightly different manner (i.e. they
+ might 'look' different on first sight). Under certain circumstances this
+ can result in a dramatic speedup because it gives hashing a better chance,
+ especially when computing higher derivatives.
+* Some series expansions of built-in functions have been reengineered.
+* The algorithm for computing determinants can be chosen by the user. See
+ ginac/flags.h and ginac/matrix.h.
+* The Dilogarithm (Li2) now has floating point evaluation, derivative and a
+ proper series expansion.
+* Namespace 'std' cleanly disentangled, as demanded by ISO/EIC 14882-1998(E).
+* Some minor bugfixes, one major lsolve()-bugfix and documentation updates.
+
+0.6.2 (21 June 2000)
+* ginaccint.bin is now launched by a binary program instead of by a scripts.
+ This allows us to write #!-scripts. A small test suite for GiNaC-cint was
+ added.
+* Several minor bugfixes.
+
0.6.1 (18 May 2000)
* Cleanup in the interface to Cint. The required version is now Cint 5.14.38.
* Several bugfixes in target install.
