Dear all,

DIET "JS" Release 2.4 is now available on DIET web site 
http://graal.ens-lyon.fr/DIET

What's new ?

* Workflow Management 

        - The workflow engine now supports in addition to the existing
        MAdag language a new workflow language that provides a higher
        level of abstraction with loops and conditional structures as
        well as operators on the data flows and multiple instanciation
        of services for parallel processing (language defined by the
        Gwendia project: http://gwendia.polytech.unice.fr/)

* Data Management

        - DAGDA can now return transfers progressions. Accessible from the
        API when activating a compilation option.

* Dynamic hierarchy

- Added the possibility to dynamically change the hierarchy shape.

* Windows port

        - Added the support of Windows platform inside Cygwin. DIET is
        now available on Windows through a port in Cygwin. It as been
        successfully tested on Cygwin 1.5.25 and Cygwin 1.7.1.
        - It should be noticed that the workflow module is not available
        on this platform.

* Compilation improvement.

- Compilation process in general has been improved to remove cyclic dependancies between libraries during the link. 

* Few bugs fix

Enjoy
