2016-08-12 Jonathan Hogg
Version 2.5.0
   * Capture errors from MC78 and disable MC78's printing

2016-05-09 Jonathan Hogg
Version 2.4.0
   * Add control%diag_zero_minus, control%diag_zero_plus and info%num_zero
     allowing factorization of semi-definite and near indefinite matrices
     (semi-definite factorization is unstable - for expert use only).
   * Size of control and info data structures changes in C header files. Extra
     space added to allow for future expansion.
   * Fix assorted integer conversion warnings.

2014-08-01 Jonathan Hogg
Version 2.3.0
   * Remove non-existant info%matrix_rank from user documentation.
   * Convert dnode to a pointer in task_dispatch() and add_updates() to avoid
     silly performance bug (and memory leak in some compilers)
   * Fix mismatch between C/Fortran info structures leading to memory
     overwrite bug
   * Fix bug in MATLAB interface whereby warning returns from ma87_analyse
     caused 'factor' option to abort prematurely.

2013-04-29 Jonathan Hogg and Jennifer Scott
Version 2.2.0
   * Add new user callable routine ma87_sparse_fwd_solve()
     (Fortran+C only, not MATLAB)

2013-03-20 Jonathan Hogg and Jennifer Scott
Version 2.1.1
   * Fix typos in user documentation.
   * Remove accidental Fortran from comment in C example
   * Fix bug in matlab install script for MATLAB major version > 7.

2011-05-04 Jonathan Hogg and Jennifer Scott
Version 2.1.0.
   * Rectify performance accidental issues introduced in previous version.
   * MATLAB interface added.
   * C interface added.
   * Change to factorize phase to allow user to recall if matrix
     found to be positive definite or IEEE infinities found.

2010-12-23   Jonathan Hogg and Jennifer Scott
Version 2.0.0.
   * Complex version included in package.
   * Input routine removed. Interface changed to new standard
   * HSL format (no checking of user data).
   * Solve phase improved (including BLAS2 for single rhs).
   * Analyse changed to use hsl_mc78.
   * Default task pool size reduced to 25000 (sufficient for our test
     problems with nemin = 32).

2009-08-21
Version 1.4.0. Special omp comments moved forward

2009-07-27
Version 1.3.0. Removed printing of a%val from ma87_analyse

2009-07-10
Version 1.2.0. keep%final_blk initialized to zero and reset to zero in finalise.

2009-07-09
Version 1.1.1. Minor wording change to specification document.

2009-05-22
Version 1.1.0.
   * Storage for L changed so that it is now held using an allocated array for
   each block column (no changes have been made to inter nodal or between nodal
   updates, other than to accommodate the new data structure). New structure
   used since will be needed in the indefinite case
