- Invert's theoretical noise estimates could be way too high for large datasets, due to a recently discovered bug where precision was lost in accumulating weights. This has now been fixed. The estimates are still not as good as they used to be before CABB, due to more limited Tsys info.
- gpcopy is now more relaxed about copying tables, avoiding creation of many small intervals in 'merge' or 'apply' mode.
- gplist can now list the contents of binned leakage and gains tables.
- linmos now has a cutoff parameter to specify how much of the primary beam to use and an 'alpha' option to mosaic mfs images with an I*alpha plane which can then be used to create spectral index mosaics. Mfspin has had a corresponding change to deal with these mosaics.
- uvfmeas, the flux measuring task has had a number of improvements, including fitting multiple frequency ranges, more output options and handling larger datasets
- a number of smaller bug fixes and improvements
