Orocos Toolchain 2.4.0 Released !

A new major release of the Orocos Toolchain is available, the 4th since our 
2.0 cycle started. This release confirms the trend of the previous releases: 
getting bugs out of the core libraries and extending/improving the tooling.

Notable improvements can be found in the rtt-lua scripting bindings, which is 
nearing its 1.0 release and widely used by now; a new appender for logging to 
Apache ChainSaw has been added to OCL's logging service; orogen/typegen has 
evolved further, including a generic POSIX mqueue transport and the RTT data 
flow implementation has been optimized to only have minimal copies of data. 
Various anoying bugs were fixed in RTT XML serialization, Taskbrowser and 
scripting.

There is a regression for Mac OS-X users regarding the type system (types in 
scripts don't work). We encourage users to test this version (or use git-
bisect) and to submit bug reports such that we can nail down where this 
regression comes from.

You can read all the details in the changes document here:

A big thank you to all contributors which are helping out to keep the quality 
of our releases up.
