     -------------------------
     - Added a Make target of check-all-install to test the correctness of

     Parallel Library:
     -----------------
+    - Modified parallel tests to run with arbitrary number of processes. The
+      modified tests are testphdf5 (parallel dataset access, collective chunk
+      IO, irregular hyperslab selection with collective IO) and
+      t_chunk_alloc (chunk allocation). The rest of the parallel tests already
+      use in the code the number of processes available in the communicator.

       the form of binary output (NATIVE, FILE, BE, LE). PVN - 2008/11/14
-    - h5repack: When user doesn't specify a chunk size, h5repack now defines a default 
-            chunk size as the same size of the size of the hyperslab used to read the chunks. 
-            The size of the hyperslabs are defined as the size of each dimension or a 
-            predefined constant, whatever is smaller. This assures that the chunk
