The N-body simulation has been updated to 0.40. All systems are now using OpenMP for threading. The old static JSON configuration we were using has been replaced with Lua (so we can have totally arbitrary initial distributions of particles). Now we'll be fitting dwarf models with multiple components (e.g. a dark matter shell around the dwarf galaxy). The old applications won't work. Any old search workunits still left also won't work.
