ANNOUNCE(OpenSTA): ANNOUNCE(OpenSTA): Release - 1.4.2 available

[<ope...@li...>]

I am pleased to announce the third bugfix release of the OpenSTA 1.4
series.  This release contains some small bug fixes but mostly it is
to make available big changes to the build system and source
organization.  Because of this, the recommendation is only to upgrade
only if you feel like taking a small risk :-) 

The Microsoft Windows installable (MSI) and the source package are
being made available from the OpenSTA SourceForge file area:
  http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=10857

The changes in this release (from 1.4.1) are:
* bugs fixed:
    225790 - "Export to Excel" gets header text for data columns
    728102 - URL in HTTP stats exported to csv no longer
             truncated
    728358 - Icon transparency issues in Modeler fixed
    699730,699741 - OpenSTA dataname verification in GUIs
* include this file and the BUGS file in the MSI installation
* minor help updates
* make sure most of the installed binaries have correct version
  resources and improve code structure to make it easier to update
  product versions
* many and varied improvements to the build
* system, including completely clean build (no warnings) and ability
  to build under latest Microsoft Platform SDK (although not yet
  recommended)

Any problems with the product toolset should, as usual, be reported
at:
  http://sourceforge.net/bugs/?group_id=10857
      
Thank you,
/dan
