+1.7beta (2015-12-04)
+ * NB: This release has a beta tag as it contains two new
+ big experimental features.
+ * experimental MPI distributed computing support in Python
+ * experimental support in Python for FP and BP of objects
+ composited from multiple 3d data objects, at possibly different resolutions.
+ This also removes some restrictions on data size for 3D GPU FP and BP.
+ * support for Python algorithm plugins
+ * removed restrictions on volume geometries:
+ The volume no longer has to be centered.
+ Voxels still have to be cubes, but no longer 1x1x1.
+ * build fixes for newer platforms
+ * various consistency and bug fixes
+
1.6 (2015-05-29)
* integrate and improve python interface
* integrate opSpot-based opTomo operator
