[nmag-announce] update of 0.1 beta release (5259)

[Hans Fangohr]

Dear all,

we have updated the code on http://nmag.soton.ac.uk: the current
release is 0.1 beta 5259.

It includes a number of bugfixes and improvements, including:

Bug fixes/Improvements

- ticket 126: Calculation of exchange energy, demag energy, Zeeman
energy and total energy had wrong sign; now working correctly.

- increased speed of setup phase slightly.

- decreased memory usage for runs with anisotropy.

Interface changes

- Have changed version of mpich in tarball distribution. Used to be
mpich2.0 but is mpich1.0 from now on (to be consistent with debian
packages). Users who have older tarballs and want to use MPI
execution, need to obtain a new tarball to update (updating the
nsim-core is not sufficient).

New features

None

As always, we welcome any feedback and bug reports (by email to
nm...@soton.ac.uk, or in the mailing list nmag-...@lists.soton.ac.uk).

Hans, on behalf of the nmag team.
