## Release notes
+### Version 0.14
+
+- The net flux imposed can be combined with other boundary/connection
+ conditions, i.e. a net flux can be set in addition to convective
+ exchange and radiative transfer.
+- Added support for plain text log messages. Until now, log messages were
+ intended to be read by a VT100-like terminal and could therefore contain
+ escape sequences that required post-processing to store them in plain text
+ log files.
+- Added support for user-defined signature on the green function. It allows to
+ check that, when reloaded, a green function is the one expected by the user
+ according to its own constraints that the green function cannot check itself
+ such as, for example, that the same deltas are used in conductive random
+ walks.
+- Changes the value of the constant `SDIS_VOLUMIC_POWER_NONE`. Its previous
+ value of zero caused problems during the evaluation of the propagator: a
+ media with a power density of zero was not registered in the list of media
+ with a volumic power. A volumic power that was not zero was therefore not
+ taken into account during the re-evaluation of the propagator. The constant
+ is now set to `DBL_MAX`, which means that the medium has no power density,
+ while a value of 0 is now treated as any valid power density term.

#### Type and state of the random number generator
