---------------------------------------------------------------------
Version 1.22 - 2014-04-28 (AI)
--------------
+ rgsDisp bug fixed in background computations.
Version 1.21.2 - 2014-03-05 (AI, EC, EOP)
--------------
+ Deep analysis showed that the change made in 1.21.1 to
call manager.background replacing rgsDisp[i] by
rgsDisp[excl.size() - 1], was incorrect.
It is changed now to rgsDisp[0].
Version 1.21.1 - 2014-02-26 (EC, EOP, AI)
--------------
+ Changed call to manager.background in parameter rgsDisp form
rgsDisp[i] to rgsDisp[excl.size()-1].
Version 1.21 - 2014-02-04 (AI)
--------------
+ code refractoring. The static function narrow is now a Node method
Version 1.20.1 - 2013-02-19 (AI)
--------------
+ eV~Ang constant taken from caloalutils.
Version 1.20 - 2012-12-18 (AI)
--------------
+ New functionality to calculate regions (spatial, source, background) in lambda space.
These modifications are related to the SOC-SPR-6688
+ New parameter "spectrumbinning" to switch between region calculations
in beta or lambda space.
+ documentation updated.
Version 1.19.3 - 2009-05-29 (AI)
--------------
+ New paremeters "withpicutoff" and "picutoff" added. SOC-SCR-241 closed.
This parameter supplies the minimum cutoff in PI for region selection.
+ Doc updated.
Version 1.19.2 - 2006-06-22 (AI)
--------------
+ (config/rgsregion.par) New default values for parameters:
xpsfbelow=95, xpsfabove=95, xpsfexcl=98, pdistincl=95
Version 1.19.1 - 2006-02-17 (CG)
--------------
+ re-submission after cleaning directories
Version 1.19 - 2005-01-12 (BC + CG)
------------
+ updated for extended source analysis
+ see TN (XMM-SOC-SW-TN-0020)
+ Wavelength/Energy conversion accuracy fix - SPR2549
Version 1.18 - 2003-06-30 (CG)
------------
+ broken link in documentation fixed
Version 1.17 - 2002-08-19 (UL)
------------
+ a few transparent changes to improve C++ standard compliance
Version 1.16 - 2002-07-29 (UL)
------------
+ now depends on selectlib-4.58 and sas-1.0
Version 1.15 - 2002-05-09 (JDR)
------------
- requires param-2.0
Version 1.14 - 2002-04-23 (JDR)
------------
- implements order-specific background regions for HTR mode
Version 1.13 - 2002-02-20 (JDR)
------------
- added support for HTR mode data
Version 1.12 - 2001-11-08 (JDR)
------------
- spatial regions diminish to null as DELTA_XDSP leaves the exposed surface
Version 1.11 - 2001-10-17 (JDR)
------------
- added std namespace qualifiers
- fixed bug in spatial regions near the top of the chips
- removed automatic PRIMESRC regions (and associated warning)
- chip 1 CCD redistribution function used for all chips
- the silicon edge is resolved regardless of --orderres
- excludes calibration sources from PI regions
- handles null exposure maps
Version 1.10 - 2001-10-10 (JDR)
------------
- changed parameter name --set to --srclist and --eventset to --evlist
Version 1.9 - 2001-09-28 (JDR)
-----------
- updated runtime default filenames
Version 1.8 - 2001-04-11 (JDR)
-----------
- updated for rgssources-4.0
Version 1.7 - 2001-04-05 (JDR)
-----------

Version 1.3 - 2001-01-12 (JDR)
-----------
- replaced --xpsfincl with --xpsfbelow and --xpsfabove
- added --protect mechanism to avoid destruction of customized regions

Version 0.2 - 2000-11-28 (JDR)
-----------
- bug fix: now conforms with ASC region specification (requires rgslib-1.3)
Version 0.1 - 2000-11-21 (JDR)
-----------
- working draft, ready for testing and design review
- directory structure created by pkgmaker
