Would like to propose a schedule for the planned upcoming release:- submit all changes/extension/bug fixes in git repository before Now 24 - On Now 25 a new branch for the release version will be created on master git repository. Commits to this ... [More] branch should include only error fixes and doc updates.- The updates to release branch should be posted before Dec, 10 and if everything will be ok (compilation tests on different platforms, additional tests), the new release will be available during the December.- The commits to development version (not intended for release) should go to master branch as usual.- After the release, the new release branch will be merged to master.Borek [Less]

Dear all,nearly 18 months have passed since the last oofem release and I think it's time now to consider a new one. Having in mind the upcoming summer holidays, I would like to propose the following roadmap to new release:- All git commits to master ... [More] repository made till Aug, 15 will be considered for inclusion.- On Aug, 15, a new branch for the release version will be created on master git repository. Commits to this branch should include only error fixes and doc updates.- The updates to release branch should be posted before Aug, 31 and if everything will be ok (compilation tests on different platforms, additional tests), the new release will be available at the beginning of September.- The commits to development version (not intended for release) should go to master branch as usual.- After the release, the new release branch will be merged to master.In addition, I would like to ask you for the following:o) commit and update the work you may have and want to appear in the new release,o) update the documentation as much as possible,o) send me the proposed updates of oofem web pages, if you have any.With kind regards,Borek [Less]

The official release of OOFEM 2.3 is now available. New features include:        * XFEM support for cracks in 2D including branch functions and coupling of cohesive zones with XFEM.        * XFEM elements: TrPlaneStress2dXFEM (new) and ... [More] PlaneStress2dXfem (major modifications).        * Support for Sets: Useable for boundary conditions, cross-sections.        * FE^2 support for incompressible fluids with Dirichlet, Neumann and periodic boundary conditions.        * Support for material orientations in layered cross section.        * Improved support for directly using OOFEM from within custom applications.    * Improved model for cement hydration.    * A new isotropic damage model for tension/compression based on Griffith's solution.    * VtkXml outputs at integration points.    * Added variable cross section model.    * New DKT plate element and plane stress element with vertex rotations.    * New wedge elements for structural analysis.    * Improved generic geometric non-linearity, many elements are now supported.    * New options in nonlocal integral models - modified averaging operator based on the distance from the boundary or on the stress state.    * Added new anisotropic damage model.    * New linear constraint boundary condition.    * Many bug fixes, small enhancements and documentation updates.
