Documentation
* The whole documentation was reworked and reorganized. There is
- still many room for improvement here, but we're on it.
+ still much room for improvement here, but we're on it.

+ Infrastructure
+ * We now need python3 for our testing infrastructure.
SMPI
* Privatization is now activated by default in smpirun
* smpi/cpu-threshold:-1 should become smpi/simulate-computation:no
smpi/running-power is renamed to smpi/host-speed
- Dropped functions and features
+ New functions and features
+ * MSG_parallel_task_execute_with_timeout, to timeout computations.
+
+ Dropped / renamed functions and features
* msg_mailbox_t and associated functions. Use s4u::Mailbox instead.
- MSG_mailbox_is_empty() -> Mailbox::empty()
- MSG_mailbox_front() -> Mailbox::front()
- MSG_mailbox_get_by_alias() -> simgrid::s4u::Mailbox::byName(name)
- MSG_mailbox_get_task_ext() -> MSG_task_receive_ext()
- MSG_mailbox_get_task_ext_bounded -> MSG_task_receive_ext_bounded
+ - MSG_host_(get/set)_params -> MSG_vm_(get/set)_params
+ * Don't pass the free_f parameter to property related functions:
+ - MSG_host_set_property_value()
+ - MSG_as_router_set_property_value()
+ - MSG_storage_set_property_value()
+ * VM properties. Since msg_vm_t are msg_host_t, just use
+ MSG_host_get_property_value() and friends
+ * xbt heterogeneous dictionnaries (created with xbt_dict_new()).
+ Well, they are still there for now, but deprecated with a warning.
+ Please switch to xbt_dict_new_homogeneous() before this is removed
+ for real.
* Task affinity. Its intended behavior (that was very badly tested
and probably not really working) was deceiving what most users
- would have hoped here.
+ would have hoped here.
+ * xbt_os_sem_get_value: unused internally, deprecated on OS X El Capitan
+ * Option network/coordinates is now useless and should be dropped.
XML:
* Add Exa- and Peta- units such as EiB, EB, Eib, Eb for size, and
