Dear all,
the develop branch is almost finalized for the next uBlas release and 
will soon make it into the master branch. If anybody has any 
comments/suggestions for minor changes, it is a good period to express 
them. Pull requests should be done in relevant branches in 
https://github.com/uBLAS/ublas and NOT in https://github.com/boostorg/ublas.

There has been a major overhaul in the development infrastructure that 
has also moved to github and we have been very careful to make sure 
things have transitioned smoothly (144 minor and major commits with 
respect to the current release). The major revisions and features are:

1. Changed the uBlas development folder structure (will not effect users 
of the library)

2. Cleaned up documentation items.

3. Performed a very large overhaul with respect to warnings/errors on 
various compilers. Apart for some hard to resolve warnings and older 
compiler incompatibilities, compilations with uBlas will be much cleaner 
now.

4. Fixed the long standing banded matrix bug 
(https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/7549).

5.  Added a matrix row/column facade type (matrix as a vector of rows or 
columns ). The credit  goes to Joaquim Duran and Oswin Krause.

After the latest develop tests have run on the test servers 
(http://www.boost.org/development/tests/develop/developer/numeric-ublas.html) 
we will push into master. This is expected to happen within the week.

We are very happy that we now have a much better infrastructure for 
uBlas development and wish that this will help to propel the project 
goals into the future.

Best regrads,
Nasos
