Hi YODA and Rivet users,

After the release of YODA 1.0.7 last week, we found that a change in our
Python interface to data objects had created a bug in the important
yodamerge script. Unfortunately our testing system didn't detect the
issue, so this sneaked into the release.

To address this, we've released a minimal patch version, but with a
major-looking release number: 1.1.0. You're advised to use this right
away, in place of 1.0.7. If you want to avoid installing a whole new
YODA for some reason, then just copying the bin/yodamerge script from
the new tarball will fix the problem -- but we recommend a proper
installation.

The major-looking version change is because this is really the number we
should have used in the first place for the 1.0.7 release. It's not just
a bugfix, but a substantial improvement... and one that makes a couple
of breaking changes like this. We'll try to get the versioning (and
testing) right in future!

Best wishes,
Andy
