+
+
+CHANGES FOR BETA 13
+===================
+
+Flesh
+=====
+
+Documents
+  - created documents (Users Guide, Thorn Guides) are now placed in the
+    doc directory instead of the top level directory
+  - new Reference manual
+
+Argument lists
+  - now easier to find out when thorns reference variables with no assigned
+    storage
+
+configuration.ccl
+  - New mechanism which tells the Cactus make system that there is a
+    compile-time dependency on the presence of some capability.  Thorns
+    may "provide" a number of capabilities which other thorns may then
+    "require"; only one thorn providing a particular capability may be
+    compiled in at once.  This will in the future allow much of the
+    functionality now in lib/make/extras to be moved into thorns, and
+    paves the way for the addition of other languages.  Note that this
+    should not be used as a general way to provide inter-thorn
+    dependencies as it does not allow the runtime swapping of
+    functionaly equivalent thorns that is possible using the
+    inheritence and function aliasing mechanisms.
+
+Core Thorns
+===========
+
+Boundaries and Symmetries
+  - the boundary condition infrastructure has been reworked to make a
+    clear distinction between physical and symmetry boundary conditions. 
+
+Coordinates and Symmetries
+  - these have also been re-worked to clarify the distinction; it is
+    an ongoing process which will be completed sometime in beta 16.
+    The basic idea is that we have two basic thorns (already written)
+
+  CoordBase
+    - Maintains a registry of coordinate systems on a per-GH basis
+    - Thorns providing specific coordinate systems register them with it,
+      providing coordinate systems for GFs and possibly GAs.
+    - There can be a default coordinate system associated with the GFs.
+
+  SymBase
+    - Maintains a registry of symmetries on a per-GH basis.
+    - Thorns providing symmetries register them with it, providing the faces
+      that their symmetry relates, and the number of symmetry zones.
+
+

+
+
+KNOWN BUGS IN BETA 13
+=====================
+(See Cactus bug tracking system for a complete list)
+
+==============================================================================
+
+
+WHAT TO EXPECT IN BETA 14
+=========================
+
+Function aliasing will be enhanced to allow a thorn to require that a
+particular function is there, as well as the current optional scheme.
+
+A lot of the configuration.ccl files will disappear as the explicit
+dependencies are removed by the use of function aliasing.
+
+The windows port will use the perl from the cygwin distribution instead of
+the seperate ActivePerl distribution.
