Note: the dependency against Triangle has been removed. It was used for
a single post-processing plugin, which has been rewritten to use the
native mesh algorithm.
GNOME 2.20 release notes can be found at
http://www.gnome.org/start/2.20/notes/en/ . Beyond that, this update
includes the new GIMP 2.4 (courtesy of ahze).
The GNOME 2.20 update also includes a huge change in the FreeBSD GNOME
hierarchy. We are now using the more standard DATADIR of ${PREFIX}/share
rather than ${PREFIX}/share/gnome. The result is that fewer patches and
hacks are needed to port GNOME components to FreeBSD. This will mean some
user changes may be required, so be sure to read /usr/ports/UPDATING for
more details.
This release and the things we accomplished in it would not have been
possible without mezz's crazy idea to collapse DATADIR, and his persistence
to make it happen successfully. Ahze and pav also deserve thanks for
their work on porting modules and testing the whole ball of wax on
pointyhat (respectively).
The FreeBSD GNOME team would also like to thank our various testers and

- Now we are allowed to package Gmsh built with Tetgen: thanks to Pedro
F. Giffuni, the author granted the FreeBSD project to redistribute it.
However, redistribution of Triangle has not yet been granted, then:
. build the default package with Tetgen and Triangle;
. set NO_CDROM if Triangle is not disabled;
. explain the conditions in post-installation message.

supports them. This is determined by running ``configure --help'' in
do-configure target and set the shell variable _LATE_CONFIGURE_ARGS
which is then passed to CONFIGURE_ARGS.
- Remove --mandir and --infodir in ports' Makefile where applicable
Few ports use REINPLACE_CMD to achieve the same effect, remove them too.
- Correct some manual pages location from PREFIX/man to MANPREFIX/man
- Define INFO_PATH where necessary
- Document that .info files are installed in a subdirectory relative to
PREFIX/INFO_PATH and slightly change add-plist-info to use INFO_PATH and
subdirectory detection.

- OASIS files can be read as well now. The reader automatically
determines the kind of file. OASIS layer names are supported. Due to
the complexity of the OASIS specification, or more precisely the
effort required to test a reader for meeting the specification, OASIS
support currently is regarded to be in "beta" state.
- Layers can now be organized hierarchically. Layers can be grouped
which allows to control visibility and other properties for the group
as a whole. Layers can be removed from the layer view list or new
layer views can be created.
- The layout can be transformed (rotated, shifted, mirrored) now. This
transformation is specified in the layer panel as a part of the layer
source specification. An optional transformation can be applied per
layer or layer group. This way for example, different layouts can be
aligned over each other.
- Shape properties now are supported. Each shape may carry optional
properties that are read from GDS or OASIS files. A property selector
can be applied per layer view, so that a layer only shows these shapes
that match the given property selection.
- As an experimental feature, the inverse layout tree can be
visualised by allowing the minimum hierarchy level to go into the
negative range. The effect of this is, that a cell is shown in the
context of all of it's direct parents, if the first hierarchy level is
set to -1. If set to -2, the cell is shown in the context of all of
it's parents and grandparents and so on. Since there is no particular
optimiziation for this feature, performance may be poor, if a cell
must be painted in a huge number of contexts. In addition, the context
displayed does not participate in selection or ruler snapping.
It features some key concepts like macro recording, workbenches, ability to run
as a server and dynamically loadable application extensions and it is designed
to be platform independent.
Warning: FreeCAD is still in ALPHA state and not in shape for end user usage!

---When you have a large number of or big layout/schematic/TeX files which
have possibly many top cells made by other people, how can you manage
those layout/schematic/TeXs? FH is written for that. It can be useful
up to your imagination or shell programming skill. FH analyses the
hidden hierarchies of those cells and shows you the hierarchy information.

has the flexibility and power to meet the needs of other technologies.
Jspice3 is an adaptation of the Berkeley Spice3f4 program, with added
features. One added feature is a built-in graphical input front end for
schematic capture. While displayed, simulations can be run and data
plotted through this graphical interface.
While not as powerful or as pretty as the Xic graphical interface, it
holds its own in functionality.
A significantly enhanced output plotting capability is provided, and
Jspice3 has enhanced script interpretation capability.

- This is the first snapshot of the new HID version of PCB. HID, which
stands for Human Interface Device is the abstraction created by
DJ Delorie which seperates the core PCB code from the graphical user
interface. In this release, two GUI HID's are supported, gtk and lesstif.
In addition, there are HID exporters for postscript and encapsulated
postscript, RS-274-X (gerber), bill of materials, centroid file, and
png/gif/jpeg. This represents a major restructuring of the code and
many months of work.
- PCB's actions (the commands which drive the core of the program and
may be directly accessed by the user) now have the documentation in-line
in the code and the actions reference section of the manual is
extracted from the in-line documentation. The goal it to provide more
complete and accurate documentation. As always the manual is still
a work in progress but it is getting more complete and up to date.
- Fixed a long standing segfault when saving connection data
- Fixed a DRC bug
- Fix some rounding issues when setting sizes. Hopefully this will address
the issue with 23.99 mil drills and related problems.
- The html manual is now in one file instead of many files
- The lesstif HID now supports loading of background images to help
recover a layout which may exist in hardcopy form only.
** 20060321
- Add internal support for more than 8 layers. By default PCB is still
compiled for 8 copper layers.
- Fixed several minor bugs in the GTK user interface including fixing
scrolling of the log window, fixed up some of the DRC reporting
and mm/mil units.
- Fixed several key bindings.
- Updated refcard.tex to reflect the current set of key bindings.
- Fixed some minor bugs which caused compilation problems on some
systems.
- Converted the QFN footprints to hi-res.
- Added documentation to the manual for the centroid file format and
the algorithm used for finding the centroid and rotation.
- Fixed a bug so that the initial layer named 'component' is actually
on the component side of the board and 'solder' is actually on the
solder side of the board.
- Fixed the pin order in the bourns trim pots (~bourns library)
- Added actions and a script to allow command line printing.
- Added IPC-7351 recommended footprints for 0201, 0402, etc passives.
- Fixed SME5 package.
- Fixed a bug which prevented disabling nets from the ratsnest
- Fixed a bug where clearances could be set 1 below the spacing
- Fixed clearline flag so that arcs also have this property.
- Speed up rtree searches and other autorouter speedups.
- Fixed a bug in computation of the closest polygon point.
- Use rtrees for polygon handling for speed improvements.
- Add a ChangePinName() action.
- Fix a bug which caused duplicate rats names when manually adding
rats lines.
- Added DRC checks for minimum drill diameter and minimum annular ring.
- Add a minimal glossary to the manual
- Fix the author name in the fab drawing
- Cause the crosshair to snap to pad ends instead of center for rat
drawing.
- Add "join" to SetFlag, ClrFlag and ChangeFlag.
- Added inline documentation for the pcb file syntax. The manual now
is up to date and correctly documents the file format. In addition
the inline documentation will make it much easier to maintain the
documentation.
- Remove some broken m4lib footprints
- Put the correct setting for the gschem footprint= attribute in []
in the library window for the m4 libraries.

This release has several notable enhancements, including the
addition of a new example geometry model of a toy vehicle. The DXF
converter received considerable attention with the addition of
support for most of the formerly unsupported 2D entities. Several
bugs were identified and fixed in mged, g2asc, g_diff, and asc-nmg.
Documentation was improved for dbupgrade and dxf-g, and a new g-var
tool was created to facilitate conversion of models for purposes
directly related to OpenGL display lists. Finally, the new archer
modeling tool received support for multi-select and cut-n-paste.
