The release tarball can be downloaded at: ftp://ftp.mcs.anl.gov/pub/fathom/meshkit-1.5.0.tar.gz. We would also like to thank our users and contributors for making this release possible. The notable changes in MeshKit v1.5.0 are: * Added a parallel triangle advancing front algorithm for surface meshing; Also added support for fully open-source NetGen tetrahedral meshes, uses MeshKit-AdvFront triangle meshing underneath * Netgen can be auto downloaded during configuration (if not available on the user system) * Mesquite support is now enabled directly via MOAB. i.e., configure MOAB with --enable-mesquite option and build with MeshKit to enable Mesquite support * Remove .sat/ACIS files creation support due to interface/capability change in CGM (refer to CGM release notes) * Added a new MKmesh tool for invoking any available meshing algorithm on a geometry * Support for facet based geometry (default in CGM) for several algorithms * Considerable updates to the autotools build system, and introducing a new CMake based build system with test and tools; Several dependencies are currently not handled with CMake but this will be added in an upcoming minor release. * RGG support for Trelis using configure option --enable-rgg16 option Please refer to the following link to find all changes in the SIGMA components and more specifically, information about the fixes and enhancements in CGM as part of this release. http://sigma.mcs.anl.gov/news/sigma-release-1-3/ Let us know if you have any questions or encounter any issues during your upgrade.
