  # Revision history
+# Version 3.0
+#  * Full-duplex communication between inner and outer processes, padb
+#    no longer simply sends request on the command line and processes
+#    the response but is truly interactive between the inner and outer
+#    processes.  This avails greater flexibility in what can be achieved
+#    and hopefully helps with scalability as well.
+#  * Enabled warnings (-w) by default.  Fixed lots of warnings, mostly
+#    about comparing with undef
+#  * Much more complete separation into "modes" of operation, most options
+#    are now mode specific rather than simply using global variables or
+#    global conf options.
+#  * Overhaul of the allfns (mode) callbacks and in particular their  
parameters
+#  * Performance improvements.

-# Version 2.5 (Beta)
+# Version 2.5
  #  * First Non-Quadrics version
  #  * Various stability/bug fixes.
  #  * Deadlock detect at the MPI Layer rather than the Elan layer
