[gmx-developers] Re: [gmx-users] Please test the new Gromacs-4.5!

[Tsjerk Wassenaar]

Hi Rossen e.a.,

Great work! Thanks.

I pulled the GIT version today, expecting that release-4-5-patches
would now be the final 4.5, but it still welcomes me

                          :-)  VERSION 4.5-beta4  (-:

Probably I still miss out on the GIT stuff :) Can you enlighten me?

Cheers,

Tsjerk
