License type: lgpl

Announcement text: 
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The PRC driver has been overhauled to support model tree
groups, lossy compression, efficient representations of
elementary geometrical objects, and specialized rendering
options. More efficient OpenGL thick tubes were implemented;
the capping of 3D curves was improved. The SIGQUIT signal
was replaced by SIGTERM. Under MSWindows, the 384MB Cygwin
memory limit is now automatically disabled by the Asymptote
installer. Inferred variable types were added and operator
symbols are now pretranslated.
