- Change: Big cleanup. Supress all the GCell level: GCell, GCellGrid,
GCellRoutingSet. Blockages now managed inside the BuildPower.
- New: In NegociateWindow, Histogram of GCell densities in Gnuplot
format.
- New: In BuilPowerRails & BuildBlockage, specific support for chip-level
design. The Alliance "top chip" design hierarchical structure is
hard-coded. Top level POWER/GROUND/CLOCK nets must always have the
<vsse>, <vdde>, <ck>, <vssi>, <vddi>, <ckc>, <cki> names.
Specific method to get trans-hierarchical root nets, espcially in
case of global ones (POWER/GROUND). Clock is *not* global.
Some correction in the manner obscured tracks are computeds.
- New: ProtectRoutingPad module that perform a more clean work for protecting
unused RoutingPad.
- Bug: In BuildPowerRails, uses stable_sort<> instead of sort<>, which
causes unexplained core dumps (seems to try to perform a comparison
using the "end" pseudo element). Already occured in Knik, no explanation
other than a STL bug.
- Change: Slight changes in the weights to move up. Now needs a full empty
track instead of a half one.
- Change: In Configuration, sets the default expandStep parameter to
0.99 (gives better results).
- Change: In KiteEngine::_computeCagedConstraints(), detect and build
a list of segments on which caged constraints are incompatibles
(tearing effect shown in ieee_division). All caged constraints
functions are modificated accordingly.
- Change: In Session::_revalidate(), makes doglegs on Segment with
incompatible caged constraints.
- Mark: vld & ieee_division works.

- SVN MOVE: Source tree simplification & uniformisation. Now all tools
are at the same level, directly under the root of the repository.
No more "coriolis/src".
