                                                               -*-*- END -*-*-

 *** Version 0.6

   - Introduce the option of switch off pixels (MBlindPixels and
     MBlindPixelCalc) to be able to deal with Star Field NSB.

   - Fixed a bug in the pedestals substraction

   - Introduced verbosity levels

   - Introduced a task (MReadMarsFile) which reads the RunHeader tree, too.

   - Fixed several bugs in MFTriggerLvl1 which caused to filter not to
     work correctly (thanks to Abelardo)

   - Introduced correct treatment of the diffuse Night Sky Background 
     and NSB (MMcPedestalNSB)

   - Corrected treatment of the electronic noise (MMcPedestalCopy)

   - Introduced MMcRunHeaders which contains monte carlo run informations



 *** Version 0.5 (2001/11/06)

   - Added new GUI functionality (Analysis)

   - Added a camera display to be able to display events in the camera
     together with the calculated hillas ellipse

   - Added a 'Clone'-Task (MClone) which can clone a parameter container
     object at any state of the analysis, so that the output are several
     states

   - Fixed a bug in the collection area error calculation 
     (Thanks to Ciro and Abelardo)

   - Fixed a bug which causes merpp to crash in some environments

   - Implemented auto enabling scheme for Branches to speed up reading
     a lot (see MReadTree and MTask)

   - Fixed a bug in the Histogram classes which caused histograms to
     be written to a file by MWriteRootFile without request

   - changed the object I/O from the old stylish root I/O to the new
     'auto evolution scheme' This was done only for classes which are not
     yet used in Monte Carlo files, so that these files are still readable.

   - Added support for a progress bar in MEvtLoop and MReadTree 
     (see the Analysis Window in Mars for an example)

   - Fixed a bug in the package creation which disturbed the conversion
     between a mars version unpacked from a tar file and the repository.

   - Changed the code to writer merpped (converted into root format)
     raw files, to get faster (around 10%)



 *** Version 0.4 (2001/09/20)

    - This release is made to compile on a root version >= 3.00

    - Fixed a bug which causes MReadTree to read the first file only

    - Added a task to compute the trigger rate (MMcTriggerRateCalc)
 
    - Added a task to write a container to an Ascii file (MWriteAsciiFile)

    - Added a task to write several container to a root file (MWriteRootFile)
    
    - Added calculation of the Enegry Threshold (MMcThresholdCalc)
    
    - Added calculation of the collection area (MMcCollectionAreaCalc)
    
    - fixed some bugs in the Hillas calculation
    
    - added filters to be able to control the task execution dependent on
      a parameter (for example: the number of level 1 triggers in a MC-file)



 *** Version 0.3 (2001/04/23)
	
    - Many demo macros added    
  
    - MCT1ReadAscii is now able to handle more than one file (s. ::AddFile)
    
    - Hillas Calculation added
    
    - Standard image cleaning available
    
    - MReadTree is now able to handle more than one file
      (Remark: of the same structure)
    
    - Now we are able to display events in a first version of the
      Camera event display. To do this we must run the macro 
      "macros/readCT1.C" to read data from CT1. 



 *** Version 0.2 (2001/01/24)
 
    - First Implementation of a Gui to read the raw data. Start the
      gui with the command mars. 



 *** Version 0.1 (2000/12/20)
 
    - First official release 0.1
    
    - Changes:
    
       + changed calling style of MRawPixelIterator from do...while to 
         while-loop
