Hi all,
It is that time again. This release includes the usual bevy of
bug fixes, improvements to pmlogger write patterns, as well as
changes to many PMDAs and clients to support long options. We
are almost at the end point where all tools support both option
forms now - the last few remaining stragglers will arrive next
month. Links to source and binaries here:

Another noticeable change is that we have switched to releasing
the pcp-gui package from within the main PCP build, instead of
via a separate release. This will allow us to more rapidly get
new GUI features out, and removes some administrative overhead.
For the most part, there's no resulting end user visible change
except on Mac OS X where there is now just one .dmg package.
Enjoy!
