Despite the long wait, Mash 5.1.5 is being released a little before its 
time.  This release is more of a work in progress than previous Open 
Mash releases.

Mash now uses the latest versions of Tcl/Tk (8.3.3), OTcl (1.0a7), and 
TclCL (1.0b11).  Mash has also switched to using dynamic linking for 
the standard Unix libraries.  These changes will lead to a more solid 
foundation for the future.

Mash developers pitched in with a few other notable changes.  Peter 
Pletcher helped make Solaris a supported platform again.  Wesley Miaw 
incorporated a post-DCT deblocking algorithm by Jim Chou.  This 
smoothing can be enabled by using the Modes menu attached to vic 
windows.  José María González cleaned up the way some objects are 
destroyed, paving the way for switching multicast sessions on-the-fly.  
The Windows binary is now distributed as a self-extracting Zip file.

And, of course, there were a few bug fixes.
