6.1.1 (2015/6/23)


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ganga/python/Ganga
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
* Ganga 6.1.1
* Fixes for inputfiles with local/batch backends as well as with Dirac
* Improvements to global file lock on afs to minimise problems with multiple sessions
* Some minor optimisations
* Fixed some bugs with shared directories and prepared states
* Exposed enableMonitoring function through GPI to turn monitoring back on after being disabled
* Some improvements in monitoring loop to avoid overloading backends and conflicting job edits
* Added a timeout when getting write-access to a registry


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ganga/python/GangaAtlas
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
* GangaAtlas still uses inputsandbox and does not make use of inputfiles in jobs
* Added a 'no_dir_check' to ATLASLocalDataset 'get_dataset_from_list' function to allow usage of Mass Storage 
(e.g. xroot) paths
* Added the files_per_unit option to AtlasTransform so aid splitting on local data


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ganga/python/GangaDirac
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
* DiracFile has received a lot of reworking
*  This now autocompletes the directory, namePattern and LFN fields based upon how it was constructed.
* Dirac splitter is now compatible with IGangaFile objects
* Many DiracFile methods has additional runtime options to modify their behaviour
* New Ganga based splitter is used for splitting jobs on Dirac backend


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ganga/python/GangaLHCb
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
* This release is the first release to make use of inputfiles
*   6.0 jobs can be loaded and copied/resubmitted with 6.1
*   6.1 jobs may not be fully compatible with 6.0
* This release is using LHCbDirac v8 as a Dirac backend
* LogicalFile and PhysicalFile have been deprecated and only remain for backwards compatibility
*   Please avoid using these to construct new jobs
* The LHCbDataset and Bookkeeping are now compatible with IGangaFile objects
* There is a new LHCbDirac splitter exposed in the API SplitFilesBySize
* This release is not cmake compatible
* Support for transparrently running over a dataset of (local) LFNs using different backends


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ganga/python/GangaService
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
* Fix for running on CERN AFS where repeated kinit -R is needed
