Hi,

 I  noticed by chance (i.e. a casual glance at Tom's posting on
JPythonMethods)
that a new version of VisAD was released today.

Is there some way (other than checking all postings to the VisAD mailing
list)
to find out when new versions of VisAD are  released (and the details of
what
has changed in the new version)?

Thanks - Alan
