Hi,
I'm planning on making a new release, since we have fixed a number
of bugs since 0.7.2.
NEWS:
Update for release 0.7.3.
Mention mprof_merge_runs and the elimination of lp_solve.

+------------------------------
-NEWS since Mercury release 0.7.2
---------------------------------
+This release is primarily a bug-fix release.
+But as well as bug fixes, there are a few minor improvements:
+
+* The profiler now allows you to merge profiling data from multiple runs.
+
+ There's a new script `mprof_merge_runs' to support this.
+ See the "Profiling" section of the Mercury User's Guide,
+ or the man page for `mprof_merge_runs'.
+
+* Termination analysis no longer uses the `lp_solve' package.
+
+ This avoids some portability problems and some copyright issues
+ (the `lp_solve' package had a quite restrictive license).
* We've fixed one of the limitations: unique mode declarations
no longer have to precede non-unique mode declarations.
