============ Release 8845 ============ :Date: 2016-06-19 Revision 8845 has been designated a MESA release version. The full release notes are available in `this mailing list post `__. - In order to improve the clarity and uniformity of MESA inlist options, names using “cnt” were changed to use “interval” (e.g., ``terminal_cnt`` was renamed to ``terminal_interval``). For the same reasons, the option ``photostep`` was renamed to ``photo_interval``. A simple find-and-replace will bring your inlists up-to-date. If one needs to make the changes in a more automated fashion, a sample migration script is included in the release announcement to mesa-users. - In the binary module, adjustments were made to the Eddington mass accretion rate to take into account black hole spins.
