Movement of packages into the NEW area

Packages may be moved from the DEV to NEW area provided that a few basic criteria are met.

• The package(s) compile(s) on all reference platforms.
• The appropriate, automatic, tests are passed.
• A README file is provided describing the important changes.
• The CERN Program Library team reserves the right to add additional criteria in the light of experience.
• Packages will be moved on the reference platforms from DEV to NEW on a regular basis, typically overnight.
• The NEW area on the reference server, currently asisftp.cern.ch, will be updated from the reference platforms following checking of the installation logs and a posting of new features (e.g. the README file) to the HEPLIB distribution list.
