With development efforts spanning several years, this major update to
BRL-CAD includes considerable progress on infrastructure for graphical
user interface improvements, geometry conversion, and physically-based
rendering. It also includes hundreds of logic and memory management
bug fixes, potential code vulnerability updates, and other issues
reported by Coverity and Clang Static Analysis.

This release also overhauls the way 3rd-party dependencies are managed
in BRL-CAD. Native build systems are now used in order for updates to
be more readily applied, to reduce maintenance overhead, and to set
the stage for the aforementioned major feature developments.
