[gmx-developers] impending 5.1.4 and 2016.1, and new bugfix policy

[Mark Abraham]

Hi,

We have a handful of minor fixes to amber03 and oplsaa charges (either
propagating ancient fixes made upstream, or handling problems we made
through duplicate definitions) that would be good to include in 5.1.4.
Review won't take long, please!
