importasdm/exportasdm: parameters 'showversion' and 'useversion' have been removed.T+dT timerange selection improved in accuracy.sdintimaging: now adds information to the history of produced images.caltables: storage of frequency meta information improved.imhead: updated to display micro-arcsecond precision.fringefit: memory usage has been reduced, allowing larger datasets to be processed.
gencal: a new caltype parameter 'jyperk' has been added.tclean: now handles mixed polarization setups.plotms: calibration table averaging with channel selection is now supported.plotcal/plotms: funtionality for plotcal has been migrated to plotms, and plotcal was deprecated.
