v1.2 (14th Jan 2010)

* The information written to the file seedname_hr.dat (the Hamiltonian
   in the WF basis) has been extended to include the number of WF
   (num_wann), the number of Wigner-Seitz points (nrpts) and the
   degeneracy of each point (ndegen).
* The information contained in seedname.chk has been extended to
   include the number of bands (num_bands), the number of excluded
   bands (num_exclude_bands), the excluded band indices (exclude_bands)
   and the Monkhorst-Pack grid dimensions (mp_grid). As a result
   v1.2 is not compatible with checkfiles written with older versions of
   the code.
* Automated lcr transport calculations from a single supercell.
   Includes robust sorting and Wannier function parity determination
   algorithms (new input variables: tran_num_cell_ll, tran_num_cell_rr,
   tran_group_threshold, tran_easy_fix)
* Added examples 14, 15 to tutorial to displaying new lcr transport
   functionality
* Updated interface to PWscf v4.1.2 (new input variable write_unkg)
* New utility: PL_assessment. Investigates principal layer size
   from bulk transport, many k-point lead calculations.
* Altered <seedname>_centres.xyz output file to include atomic
   positions in transport calculations
* Fixes for tran_num_cell_ll=1 in tran_hr_one_dim_cut
* Minor bug fixes
* Addition of Matthew Shelley and Nicolas Poilvert as contributors.
* Report of estimated memory usage
* Improved memory efficiency
