=== kim-api-2.1.3 =============== 16Aug2019 ====================================
* Adjust kim_collections_module to work around gfortran <= 4.8 bug.
* Fix minor bug in collections-management.
* Improve backward compatibility support for ~/.kim-api/config file format.
* Fix to Fortran/C mapping of KIM_LENGTH_UNIT_BOHR.
* Fixes to Fortran documentation and cross-references.
* Added information/links to the top level README.md
=== kim-api-2.1.2 =============== 29Jul2019 ====================================
* Fixup Fortran kim_collections_module interfaces to be consistent with c/c++.
* Fixup collections-management for portabability to dash.
* Improve item-wrapper.cpp.in for more standard compliant MD, MO, SM behavior.
* Improve zsh completion install behavior.
* Fixup Fortran c_long communication and overflow behavior.
* Add missing testing of interface in examples/simulators/collections-example.
* Improve example/simulators to remove warnings.
* Fix bug in KIM::SimulatorModel::Create().
=== kim-api-2.1.1 =============== 24Jul2019 ====================================
* Refactor 'kim-api-collections-management list' code for performance.
* Update collections-management to use 'make -j2' for improved performance.
* Improve kim-api-collections-management handling of passwords for use with
sudo. Specifically, support reading of passwords with whitespace and other
special characters.
* Add zsh support to activate/deactivate scripts & zsh completions.
* Fix c_long overflow (for i386 systems) bug in Fortran kim_collections_module.
* Rework 'kim-api-collections-management install xxx OpenKIM' behavior. Now
installs the latest official release archive found at
https://s3.openkim.org/archives/collection/. This also greatly reduces the
total build and install time.
* Redefine/refactor KIM::Collections behavior for finding item names.
Previously, a shared library file was found, opened, and checked for
validity. To significantly improve performance, now simply the existence of
the shared library file is used to identify available item names.
* Redefine/refactor collections-management and collections-info to remove
'--with-version' option.
* Fixup and improve Fortran example codes.
* Added reopology.org graphic of available binaries to README.md.
=== kim-api-2.1.0 =============== 16Jul2019 ====================================
* Added new KIM::SimulatorModel interface providing programatic support to
simulators for packaging of parameter files, input commands, and metadata
necessary to run a simulator's native potentials.
* Added new KIM::Collections interface (and the supporting extensible
enumerations KIM::Collection and KIM::CollectionItemTypes) providing
programatic access to the KIM API Collections and its configuration settings.
(This included a refactor and removal of old_KIM_API_DIRS.*.)
* Convert from old 'models' to 'portable-models' nomenclature for KIM API
collections, including environment variables, configuration file, etc. (For
backward compatibility, the old configuration file format is still accepted.)
* Added support for Metadata files to (internal) KIM::SharedLibrary and
programatic access to these files from the new KIM::Collections interface.
* Automatically add standard openkim.org metadata files (kimspec.edn,
kimprovenance.edn, and kimcite-*.bib) to an item's shared library if they
exist.
* Significant documentation updates to describe the new interfaces as well as
changing to the the Portable Model (PM) and Simulator Model (SM) terminology.
* Added explicit documentation of Fortran interfaces for routines called by the
KIM API (ModelCreate, ModelDestroy, GetNeighborList, etc.).
* Added mention of "Toy Models" to documentation.
* Added data-type error checking for Portable Model parameter get/set routines;
Thanks to Daniel Schopf.
* Bug fixes and improvements to kim-api-collections-management script
* Added support for Include-What-You-Use (IWYU).
* Added (internal) copy of edn-cpp parser for use with SMs.
* Updated existing examples as necessary and added SM example.
* Added new "unit-test" examples of simulators using the Collections and SM
interfaces.
* Improvement to pkgconfig support; Thanks to Christoph Junghans.
* Added new tests to CI, based on INSTALL file.
* Updates create-package script and added run-cmds-from-install script.
* Added .clang-format-hook-ignore file and mechanism (specifically for edn-cpp).
* Updates to better support binary installation on various systems.
* Added CDDL headers to files that did not have them.
=== kim-api-2.0.2 =============== 28Mar2019 ====================================

Makefile. The conventional name for these files now ends in ".kim.tpl".
* Model ".kim" file name is now specified in the Makefile and can be anything
the developer desires.
* Remove deprecated KIM_API_init() routine.
* Remove deprecated Fortran Cray pointer support.
=== openkim-api-v1.5.0 ========== 16Jul2014 ====================================

primary openkim.org Tests should initialize the KIM API and specify their KIM
descriptor files.
* Portability fixes for the make system
* Move away from naming various files based on the item (Model Driver, Model,
Test) name. Instead establish standard names for each item type.

* Documentation updates.
* Various bug fixes.
* Added support for searching ${HOME}/.kim/ and ./ for Models and Model Drivers
when the package is installed via the `make install' command.
* Added install and uninstall targets to the Make system.
* Now the build system (in dynamic-load and dynamic-link modes) hides all
symbols in the Model Driver and Model libraries except for the model_init()
function and the Model's kim descriptor string. This means that there is no
need to worry about symbol clashes between Models, Model Drivers, or Tests.
* Implemented dynamic-load, dynamic-link, and static-link build options.
* Make system now provides only summary information on the build process. This
makes the progress easier to understand. To see the actual build commands
use `make -n'.
* Removed `integer*8' and changed `real' and `real*8' to `float' and `double'.
* Now use -g, -Wall, and -pedantic by default for all compilations.

resulted in the removal of the Model or Test name from the descriptor files.
* Added the openkim-api-descriptor-file-match utility.
* Completely rewrote and streamlined the openkim-api Make system
* Changed directory names from trailing `s' to trailing `S'.

summarize the results of vc_forces_numer_deriv for all available Models.
* Added vc_forces_numer_deriv "verification check" that can be used with any
Model to check the consistency of its computed forces with a numerical
derivative based on the Model's energy.
* Fixed a bug in the MI_OPBC_* support for ex_model_Ne_P_fastLJ
* Fixed a bug in the make system that occurred when using static linking that
would cause some Models to be incorrectly identified as "unknown"
* ex_test_*_free_cluster and ex_test_*_free_cluster_stiff now support CLUSTER
NBC (which means they work with ALL NBC methods)
* Documentation updates
* Updated 32/64 bit switching in Fortran code for easier maintenance
* Moved library compile flags to end of command line to make sure all libraries
are correctly associated with the appropriate .so files

management and PARAM_* handling
=== openkim-api-v1.1.0 ========== 12Jul2012 ====================================
* Documentation updates
* Introduced the use of THIS_FILE_NAME in Fortran examples instead of __FILE__.
This allows for easily setting the value of THIS_FILE_NAME to something
appropriate (short) when the default preprocessor value of __FILE__ is longer
that 132 characters (the max line length for Fortran)
* Changed KIM standard time unit from `fs' to `ps' to be consistent with LAMMPS
`metal' unit system
* Changed KIM_COMPUTE and KIM_NOT_COMPUTE to KIM_COMPUTE_TRUE and
KIM_COMPUTE_FALSE, respectively
* Removed KIM_API_MAX_NEIGHBORS; the api no longer puts any restriction on the
number of neighbors for an atom
* Updated api and examples to always `return' with an error code instead of
`exit' or `stop'. This allows the Test to handle errors and is a better
convention for error handling
* Added KIM_STATUS_MODEL_UNSUPPORTED_CONFIGURATION for cases where a
configuration is identified at run time as unsupported
* Removed requirement for a trailing `/' in environment variables (such as
$KIM_DIR)
* Added make warning if `make' is invoked from a Model directory when static
linking is being used.
* Added `make examples-force' target
* `make examples' only copies files; it no longer also compiles everything
* Changed all call-back interfaces (model_init, model_reinit, model_compute,
model_destroy) to be consistent: integer functions (in Fortran speak). Also
updated examples and templates to conform to this new interface.
* Added get_model_partcl_typs() and get_test_partcl_type() service routines
Removed get_partcl_types() routine.
* Added ability of a Model/Model Driver to set its particle type codes at
runtime
* Added support for .kimignore files in MODELS, MODEL_DRIVERS, and TESTS
directories

* Significant clean-up/rearrangement of core api code
=== openkim-api-v1.0.1 ========== 25Feb2012 ====================================
* Bug fix to ex_model_Ne_P_fastLJ
* Bug fix to ex_model_Al_PF_ErcolessiAdams (and associated template file)
