• rasgeo tool for GDAL-based image file import added to applications
• rasdaman web client toolkit (raswct) has been added to applications
  • accompanying developer's manual can be found in manuals_and_examples/manuals
• fixed returning wrong error code on exception in rasgeo
• CSV formatter properly prints point queries
• fix exporting data of base type uint8, int8, uint32, float, etc. to TIFF

• fix the default definition of the RPC server in rasmgr.conf
• added —with-docs option to the configure script, to control whether doxygen documentation should be generated during installation.
• added option for generating position independent code (PIC), usually necessary on 64bit systems for generating proper shared objects.
• fix rasdl segfaulting when executed with invalid parametars
• fix rasdl segfaulting when types with a specified extent are present in the database
• fix type checking when updating with a file in some specific format. At the type-checking stage the actual type is not yet known as the conversion hasn't been evaluated.
• fix rasmgr segfaulting on Debian Wheezy 64bit, gcc 4.6
• fix make clean for java
• add rview binary and modify Makefiles so that it's properly installed on make install

• cleanup WCPS logging and fix performance bug
• performance speedup by caching in WCPS
• fix req 11, request version was not matched well.
• the server should not fail if it fails reading some of the coverages
• fix parsing of CRS in WCS 2.0
• fix failed post req2 by including an ows:Constraint under OperationsMetadata in the Capabilities response
• fix failed core req8 (URLs in OperationMetadata were same for different servlet locations), and failed core req12 (invalid KVP request didn't result with exception).
• fix req17 by adding XML schema validation of XML requests.
• perform initialization at servlet startup instead of at the first request.
• fix installation of petascope settings
• remove the version attribute of the ServiceMetadata element
• update CRS identifiers to URLs
