release are the following features:
- Addressing of sub-vectors and sub-vectors by means of vector_range and 
matrix_range now stable
- QR factorization now stable
- Two new sparse matrix formats (ell_matrix, hyb_matrix) for increased 
performance)
- ILU0 and Block-ILU preconditioner
- Automated OpenCL kernel generator for BLAS level 1 and BLAS level 2 
operations.
- Eigenvalue computations: Lanczos method, power iteration
- Improved matrix-matrix multiplication performance, particularly on 
NVIDIA GPUs. Up to 300 GFLOPs on an NVIDIA GTX 580 (counting one fused 
multiply add as one FLOP)

A full list of changes can be found in the manual at
