+Announcement for 1.2 (January 25rd, 2015)
+-----------------------------------------
+We are pleased to announce the release of ASPECT 1.2. ASPECT is the Advanced
+Solver for Problems in Earth's ConvecTion. It uses modern numerical methods such
+as adaptive mesh refinement, multigrid, and a modular software design to
+provide a fast, flexible and extensible mantle convection solver. ASPECT is
+available from
+
+ http://aspect.dealii.org/
+
+This release includes the following changes:
+- methods to have truly concentric shells without distorted cells
+- linear solver improvements which give up to 2x speedup in some cases
+- boundary names like "top" instead of numbers are now supported in input files
+- new example: free surface computation with a crust as a stagnant lid
+- new benchmarks: Davies et al. and Burstedde et al.
+- new initial condition: S40RTS perturbation based on shear wave data
+- fixes to minimum/maximum refinement plugins
+- better error messages when linear solvers fail
+- many other fixes and small improvements (direct solver, file output,
+ checkpointing, etc.)
+
+A complete list of changes can be found at
+ http://aspect.dealii.org/doc/doxygen/changes_between_1_81_and_1_82.html
+
+Wolfgang Bangerth, Timo Heister, and many other contributors.
