1. Introduction
---------------
This document briefly summarizes module by module the most important changes
made since the last release of GammaLib.


2. Public interface modifications
---------------------------------
None


3. Configuration
-----------------
If GammaLib is compiled on Mavericks (Mac OS X 10.9) or newer but Python has been
compiled for an earlier deployment target, a compatibility issue arises due to the
way how class names are mangled by the compiler. This is now automatically detected
and fixed, which should solve some compatibility issues that have been encountered
by user using the Anaconda package on Mac OS X.


4. Application module
---------------------
None


5. Base module
--------------
None


6. FITS I/O Interface
---------------------
None


7. Linear algebra module
------------------------
None


8. Model module
---------------
The diffuse map normalization for Monte Carlo simulations has been corrected in
GModelSpatialDiffuseMap::set_mc_cone() to properly account for the case that the
diffuse map has not been normalized. This fixes #1584.


9. Numerics module
------------------
None


10. Observation module
----------------------
None


11. Optimization module
-----------------------
None


12. Sky module
--------------
None


13. Support module
------------------
Correct a bug in GFilename::set_filename() that prevented using numbers in FITS
extension names (#1611).


14. XML module
--------------
None


15. VO module
-------------
None


16. Xspec module
----------------
None


17. Test module
---------------
None


18. Multi-wavelength interface
------------------------------
None


19. Fermi-LAT interface
----------------------
None


20. CTA interface
-----------------
Add table column units to the CTA event list columns (fixes #1616).


21. COMPTEL interface
---------------------
None
