 of the most important changes and improvements:
 
- * new output formats : PS1_V3 and PS1_DV2, with a number of new fields.  see:
- http://svn.pan-starrs.ifa.hawaii.edu/trac/ipp/wiki/CMF_PS1_V3
- http://svn.pan-starrs.ifa.hawaii.edu/trac/ipp/wiki/CMF_PS1_DV2

- * the Star likelihood measurement and the Cosmic Ray detection are
-improved, see the discussion at:

  * Cosmic Rays are now masked in the chip-stage output images
 
- * Some improvements to both the DUAL and SINGLE convolution analysis,
- discussed at the following link (more discussion to be added soon):

+ * Some improvements to both the DUAL and SINGLE convolution analysis, discussed at the following link (more discussion to be added soon):  http://svn.pan-starrs.ifa.hawaii.edu/trac/ipp/wiki/ppSubModifications_201009
 
- * Stack masking now includes information about the cause of masked
- pixels, as well as information about suspicious pixels.  see:

- * Fixes to the bright star masking:  The size of the bright star
- circles was OK for very bright stars (-23 inst mags), but too small
- for stars at or just beyond the saturation limit.  This is now fixed.
- Also, the w-band images used too small of a zero point for the over
- all scaling.

- * for faint sources, where we do not perform a full non-linear fit for
-the position, we are now reporting the position and position errors
-based on the centroids rather than on the peak in the detection image.
- With the fix above, this gives much more reliable values for the

-code had been letting the position be reset by the pixel analysis,
-which is definitely wrong).

 This release includes some fixes to psphotStack, which is used for the
