***ANNOUNCING THE RELEASE OF SWARM VERSION 2.2***
Swarm
Development Group announces the release of Swarm 2.2, our new
stable
version. See www.swarm.org for information; downloads are at the
"stable
release" page.
Swarm 2.2 is a wrap-up of the development snapshots that
we have been
encouraging people to use for the past several years. A
single code set
has been frozen and packaged for Windows, Linux, MacOS X,
and as source
code for other platforms. The Swarm documentation set has
also been
updated. A big thanks to Marcus Daniels for preparing the
release, which
was funded by SDG membership fees.
Please
note:
* Swarm 2.2 is essentially a maintenance release, containing a
few new
capabilities but fixing a number of bugs and incompatibilities.
Improvements include better support for HDF5 and Lisp archiving of data,
with support for serialization; data summary options added to EZGraph
and Averager; and binomial and Poisson random number distributions.
Several components have been optimized for efficiency, including the
random number generators.
* The release includes a new way to
install Swarm for Windows, along
with the Cygwin software that Swarm runs
in. Swarm has been included in
a special version of the Cygwin setup
program, so both can be installed
from the internet in a single, simple
setup process.
* Some parts of the release (e.g., Mac and Fedora
binaries) are still
being tested and moved to the Swarm ftp site. We will
try to keep the
Swarm wiki up to date as these changes are made.
*
REMEMBER that Swarm is maintained ONLY via volunteer effort and SDG
memberships. Big efforts like producing new releases---or any major
future development of Swarm---require funding. If you use Swarm, please
remember to pay for a membership and remember to include SDG memberships
in your project budgets.
* Please report any problems to the Swarm
support mail list, and
contribute any solutions you find.
*
Remember that the Swarm wiki (www.swarm.org) is an interactive,
user-contributed site. Visit it, contribute information about your
project, make improvements, etc.
* Swarm trivia: The first-ever
post to this mail list announced the
alpha release, in April, 1995. So
Swarm 2.2 also marks the 10th
anniversary of SwarmÂ’s user
community!

directors
