[gmx-users] gromacs 2016 vs 5.1.4

[Mark Abraham]

Hi,

As the release notes say,
http://manual.gromacs.org/documentation/5.1.4/ReleaseNotes/index.html, we
fixed bugs. Everybody needs to be able to feel confident that things are
only likely to improve if they move up to a bug fix release, but
acknowledge there will be bigger changes from 5.0, to 5.1, to 2016 versions.

It would be silly to take all the content of 2016 and apply it to 5.1.3 and
call that 5.1.4 :-) Then there would be no point in having a versioning
scheme!

Mark
