GLPK 2.3 -- Release Information
*******************************

Release date: April 9, 2001

GLPK (GNU Linear Programming Kit) is intended for solving large-scale
linear programming (LP), mixed integer linear programming (MIP), and
other related problems. It is a set of routines written in ANSI C and
organized in the form of a callable library.

In this version of GLPK the MIP solver (glp_integer) was completely
re-programmed in order to improve its robustness and performance. In
particular, a basis recovering procedure was introduced (it allows
switching to the primal simplex method when the dual simplex method
fails).

New edition of the document "GLPK User's Guide" was included in the
distribution. Now it describes all additional GLPK API routines which
were recently added to the package.

Please note that the current version of GLPK is *tentative*.
