[Oscar-announce] OSCAR 5.0 released

[Erich F. <ef...@hp...>]

Dear OSCAR Users & Developers,

after one year of development and just in time for SuperComputing 2006 the new
release of OSCAR is ready! It is downloadable from the sourceforge site.

Many thanks to all who contributed to this version with ideas, requirements,
developments, alpha and beta testing, bug reports and fixes!

The Release Notes for OSCAR 5.0 are attached to this email. You'll notice that
OSCAR 5.0 is significantly different from OSCAR 4.2. You will not be able to
update from OSCAR 4.2 to OSCAR 5.0 because the infrastructure has changed
significantly. Also the way how the first steps of the installation go have
changed, therefore make sure that you read at least the page
  http://oscar.openclustergroup.org/oscar_5.0
before you start a new installation.

Happy clustering!

Cheers,
Erich
