FixedPoint release 0.1.2 What's New ========== This is a minor release to pick up a few changes that have been sitting on the CVS tree. 1. Added code for compatibility with Python 2.1 (fake 'object' class, etc.) 2. Improved unit tests 3. I tested the unit tests by adding them to 'make test' in the Python 2.2.2 install. This revealed that fixedpoint.py did not pass TabNanny. I fixed that. We got a good description of rounding philosphy from Tim in an email. Joe has incorporated this in the documentation. There's a link to HTML rendering of the LaTex documentation at the project website: http://fixedpoint.sourceforge.net What's Next =========== We're going to sit back and watch for bug reports and feature requests, but we won't mess with the code anymore without provocation.
