****************
Things to watch out for before the release
(Please edit this file as you go along fixing and discovering things)
--- POLITICAL
* JM Cela now appears in the front page of the manual -- Any more credit??
* Approval of choice of symbolic names for the public branches:
- DEVELOPMENT : Always the tip of the trunk -- changes frequently
- BETA : Now the tip of siesta-3.0 -- mainly fixes and doc updates
- STABLE : Currently the tip of siesta-2.0 -- only important fixes.
These symbols will point to the appropriate branches in the archives
(it is done with symbolic links).
* Siesta-2.0.3 should be released at the same time as 3.0-beta.
* Names of released packages:
The beta version should go out as siesta-3.0-b
Further updates while still in beta will have an extra number: siesta-3.0-b-1
When turned into STABLE, siesta-3.0 (with further 3.0.1, 3.0.2, etc)
The "DEVELOPMENT" releases might be called siesta-3.5-d-314, where 314 is
the bzr revision number of the trunk.
--- Code checks
* The file "periodic_table.f" seems to have some non-standard
info. For example, for Ce ([Xe]4f1 5d1 6s2 in WebElements, no 4f1
5d1 in the table. The table should be checked.
* The Chemical potential fix for O(N) by Pablo is still not done in parallel.
In general, what to do about the O(N) part? A bigger disclaimer?
--- Building test
* For as many compilers as possible, we should check that there are no
obvious gotchas in the building, including utilities.
--- Cosmetic and updates of info:
* "2006" date should be changed in many places. This will be done with a
script at the last moment.
* Src/README needs to be updated
* Util/README needs to be updated.
* Util/Plrho/README.pgplot: The web address given,
http://dulcinea.uc3m.es/new/Pgplot/ does not seem to be functional
--- Support material
* We have to regenerate all the .out and .xml files in Reference, with
the proper version string.
--- Documentation
* At least two people need to go over siesta.tex and the
Docs/ExtraDocs to check for consistency. (In the case of the
ExtraDocs, to make sure that they are at least useful).
* Siesta.tex is in dire need of a conceptual re-working. We have to
think about what to do. Emilio suggests turning it into a proper
Reference Manual, with the introductory material moved to another
document, possibly merging it with some of the material now in
Docs/ExtraDocs. He is going to try.
--- OTHERS
* Pablo suggests including his patches for dynamic slab dipole
correction and charged slabs. They are not fully tested yet.
They are in:
