I got 2.4.9 from CPAN so I think that's why I haven't seen it...
CPAN developers releases have been announced on
the perldl list. Just follow the directions in the
release notes to install from the developers release.
is there a good way to get to know GIT, that you know of...
You could start with the DEVELOPMENT file in the
PDL source tree.
is 2.4.10 releasing to cpan ?
We're still on the plan for a New Years release. If you
want something sooner, please install (and test!) one of
the CPAN developers releases and/or the upcoming release
candidates....

I was wondering if the "Sperical Dynamics Demo" is in the 2.4.10 release ...
I noticed it wasn't in the
2.4.9 releases, If there is a problem with it please let me know and I will
start working on it
Thanks Cheers

Final PDL-2.4.10 Countdown Status:
Here is the current consolidated list of items proposed/planned
for PDL-2.4.10 with the status. My general feeling is that this
would be a good place to stop working on new functionality and
to focus instead on testing and verification of the various fixes
and features *and* on finishing the new book.
If you have any specific items that you feel should go into our
upcoming PDL-2.4.10 release, please come forward immediately.
Any remaining changes and additions in progress should be done
by Friday, 16-Dec, to give us time for testing, docs, book edits,
and release candidates.
--Chris
Key:
D Done
P Partially done
L Later
* A priority for 2.4.10 release
- To include if possible
. Nice to have (as resources permit)
' ' Not it plan (e.g., blank)
D Fixes for segfault bugs.
All reported bugs with PDL crashing perl have been addressed.
D Update PDL-Graphics-PLplot for PDL core version.
We need testers to verify that the updated code works.
P pthread computation support for win32 and cygwin
Pthread support for auto-parallelization of threaded calculations
works for all platforms. Still needs a little auto-detection logic
implemented and verified but all platforms are now supported as
long as the correct options are given in perldl.conf for those
cases where the detection fails.
P Complete NiceSlice2 reimplementation using Filter::Simple.
A framework to select the NiceSlice2 implementation works and
NiceSlice2 works as far as files go. Still to do is the rework
of the support for the interactive shells (e.g., PDL::NiceSlice2
filtering of strings). Given the potential risk of breakage for
this last piece, I'm planning to push it out to PDL-2.4.11.
* Add "other PDL modules" documentation: gnuplot support, CUDA, Stats,
Util,...
This is one of the key things to wrap up in the final few weeks
towards the PDL-2.4.10 release.
L Finish porting perldl compatibility to pdl2.
Work continues for this task but finishing the pthread support
and documentation and book for the PDl-2.4.10 release takes
priority.
L I would like to see the annoying problem with debugging lvalue PDL
routines fixed.
The problem appears to be turned into a warning in perl 5.14 or 5.15
(I'm not sure which) but won't be able to disable the warnings from
that until a developer with access to that perl version has time to
investigate the correct placement of 'no warnings' in the code.
D Clear up documentation for PDL::IO::FlexRaw w.r.t. badvalues,
headers, handles...
P Verify/document/test badval support for PDL::IO::FlexRaw
The code appears to work and has been further reviewed. It should
be good for the PDL-2.4.10 release.
L Add rcsv/wcsv variants to PDL::IO::Misc (compare rasc with rcols)
The difficult part of this is to ensure that options support
works by combining any additional user options with the required
{ COLSEP => ',' } one.
D Add wcols support for 2D arrays to match rcols [] stuff.
This has been verified.
* PDL book updated and on-line for 2.4.10
Current status TBD (Matt??) Finishing this update should be the
top remaining priority for the PDL-2.4.10 release.
L Callback slice operation implementation
Push to PDL-2.4.11.
L Finishing and releasing DM's new plotting module based on the Prima
toolkit
Push to PDL-2.4.11.
L Sprite-based points for PDL::Graphics::TriD
TBD.
Sourceforge.net Bugs Closed:
D 3396761 fix rvals arithmetic wrap-around for byte types
D 3396738 PDL::Core::convert default return type
D 3391645 bad printf formats in pdlapi.c and others
D 3391507 pdl2 docs not found by pdldoc
D 3299611 FITS I/O obscure bug
D 3080505 PLplot segfaults on plshades call on OS X
D 3059083 Problems with FITS header handling
P 3018731 NiceSlice affects code where it should not
Sourceforge.net Bugs still active:
. 3363406 PDL::Minuit build can't make libminuit.a
. 3234141 max() fails on nan
Neither of these bugs is what I consider critical for the
PDL-2.4.10 release. The libminuit build problem is being
investigated and the max() bug for NaN inputs is just the
existing PDL behavior---which should be cleaned up but is
not usually a problem except in edge cases.
Other Sourceforge.net Bugs:
. 3316394 'help funname' fails to show multiple function names
. 3314712 make PDL "readme" type files available in POD
. 3314708 PDL install does not install scantree.pl
. 3301031 add multi-image support to PDL::IO::Pnm
. 3299615 PLplot still unusable with X

. 3283650 add IO by records to PDL::IO::FlexRaw
. 3229286 add user keyword and tags to help/apropos commands
. 3182279 port PDL::Doc, etc. to use Core Pod modules
. 3164794 enhance PGPLOT/pgplot buildability
. 3161459 online docs don't link to functions in other PDL modules
. 3074830 build-time (static) NiceSlice support for PDL installs
. 3064845 add plplot demos to match pgplot ones
. 2995500 perl -d chokes on lvalue functions
. 2989482 CPAN web site bug
