     2437release contains further additions, changes, and bugfixes for the
     2438SGI-ICE system, as well as important changes like the splitting of the
     2439user-interface into single files, a complete revision of the
     2440pre-compiling mechanism allowing to use different make-depositories
     2441simultaneously, and a revision of the reading-mechanism from restart
     2442files, which has no more restrictions in case that the previous and
     2443current run have different domain/subdomain sizes. A new handling of
     2444all kind of output messages is introduced with this release and will be
     2445applied to all existing messages within the next releases.<br><br><span style="font-weight: bold;">New features are:</span><br style="font-weight: bold;"><br>Restart runs on SGI-ICE are working.

     2449result in measured negative time intervals. (cpu_log, local_tremain,

     2451completely revised. The subdomain/total domain size is now allowed to
     2452vary arbitrarily between the current and previous run. (read_var_list,

     2454One depository per block (given in the config-file) is created. Always
     2455all files from the source directory are copied to the respective
     2456depository. No additional file checks are done any more (mrun version
     24572.1).
