Simbrain 1.0.5 Released

[Jeff Yoshimi]

A new version of Simbrain (http://simbrain.sourceforge.net/) has been 
released.  This is an interim release, to make recent changes available 
prior to beginning work on the next iteration, which will involve a 
major redesign and integration with Snarli 
(http://snarli.sourceforge.net/)

Primary areas of improvement in 1.0.5 are as follows:  (1) complete 
rewrite of the world component, which now allows worlds to be edited in 
the GUI and includes more sophisticated objects, (2) complete rewrite 
of the gauges, which have been separately released as the program 
"HiSee" (http://hisee.sourceforge.net/), (3) updates to the network 
interface, right-click popup menus in particular, (4) a documentation 
rewrite. Other improvements include: recurrent connections show in the 
GUI,  improved control over input and output nodes, ability to round 
off activation values and set precision, new simulations and 
organization to simulation directory, new documentation viewer, and 
numerous bug fixes.

Your comments and suggestions would be appreciated as we enter the next 
phase of development.  As always, we are seeking developers and help.
