[Info-gama] GNU Gama 1.8.01 (stable) released

[Ales Cepek]

GNU Gama 1.8.01 has been released.  It is available from
ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gama/ and mirrors of that site (see list of
mirror sites at http://www.gnu.org/order/ftp.html).

GNU Gama is a project dedicated to adjustment of geodetic networks.
The stable branch of the project is currently limited to network
adjustment in a local coordinate system and its functionality is
represented by the program gama-local, which adjusts geodetic (free)
networks of observed distances, directions, angles, height
differences, 3D vectors and observed coordinates (coordinates with
given variance-covariance matrix). In the new development branch the
adjustment model is based on geocentric coordinate system (adjustment
model on ellipsoid). Its functionality is be represented by the
program gama-g3.


Version 1.8.01

   * new complete build system by Claudio Fontana, compatible with GNU
