+<h2>Announcement of <acronym>deal.II</acronym> 3.0</h2>
+
+<p>
+Version 3.0  of the deal.II object-oriented finite  element library is
+available on the deal.II home-page at
+</p>
+<p align="center">
+<a href="http://gaia.iwr.uni-heidelberg.de/~deal" target="_top">

+</a>
+</p>
+
+<p>
+deal.II is a C++ program  library targeted at adaptive finite elements
+and error estimation.  It uses state-of-the-art programming techniques
+of the C++ programming language to offer you a modern interface to the
+complex  data structures  and algorithms  required for  adaptivity and
+enables you to use a variety of finite elements in one, two, and three
+space dimensions, as well as support for time-dependent problems.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+The library is written for research purposes and offers many features:
+<ul>
+<li><p> Support  for one, two, and  three space dimensions,  using a unified
+  interface that enables writing programs almost dimension independent.</p>
+
+<li><p> Handling of locally  refined  grids,  including  different  adaptive
+  refinement strategies based  on  local error  indicators  and  error
+  estimators.</p>
+
+<li><p> Support  for  a  variety  of  finite  elements,  including  Lagrange 
+  elements of order one through four, and discontinuous elements.</p>
+
+<li><p> Extensive documentation: all documentation is available online in  a
+  logical tree structure to allow fast access to the  information  you 
+  need. If printed it comprises about 200 pages of tutorials,  several
+  reports, and far more than  1,000  pages  of  programming  interface
+  documentation with  explanations  of  all  classes,  functions,  and 
+  variables.</p>
+
+<li><p> Modern software techniques that make  access  to  the  complex  data
+  structures and algorithms as transparent as  possible.  The  use  of 
+  object oriented programming allows for program structures similar to
+  the structures in mathematical analysis.</p>
+
+<li><p> Fast algorithms that enable you to solve problems with up to several
+  millions of degrees of freedom quickly. As  opposed  to  programming 
+  symbolic algebra packages the penalty for readability is low.</p>
+
+<li><p> Support for several output formats, including  some  common  formats 
+  for visualization of scientific data.</p>
+
+<li><p> Support for  a  variety  of  computer  platforms,  including  multi-
+  processor machines.</p>
+
+<li><p> Free source code under an Open Source license, and the invitation to
+  contribute to further development of the library.</p>
+</ul>

In the beginning the Universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and has been widely regarded as a bad move.
