We encourage everybody to test this +release and report any problems. Before mid May it is envisaged to finalise this +release which will then be called 1.2.0. Furthermore we will also try to create +binary packages for various Linux distributions and it is planned to include the +1.2.0 release on the USB stick provided at the OpenFOAM workshop in Gothenburg +(22-24 June). + +Version 1.2 of enGrid has a significantly improved algorithm for boundary layer +creation and an integrated surface mesher. A file template mechanism offers the +possibility to create dedicated solver output for OPENFOAM (OPENFOAM is a +registered trade mark of OpenCFD Limited) or other solvers. Currently simpleFoam +and rhoSimpleFoam are supported (versions 1.5 & 1.6). Contributions for other +solvers would be most welcome and we will certainly help anybody who wants to +extend enGrid's export capabilities. + +In the future we will publish regular bug-fixes for this release and are +planning to release 1.3 towards the end of 2010. The emphasis for 1.3 will be +put on performance, robustness and documentation along with small improvements +that arise from daily engineering tasks. -- 2.11.4.GIT
