Changes in Aerospace Blockset v2.1 (bugfix/maintenance release)
This version of the blockset is designed to make Aerospace Blockset compatible
with newest stable releases of Scilab 5.5 and CelestLab 3.0.0. It is
substantially (typically 2-4 times) faster across the board than Aerospace
Blockset 2.0. Please check changelog for the detailed description. Some old
diagrams may not work, and need to be recreated using nev version. All users of
Scilab 5.5 are advised to upgrade.
