CmdStan release notes
<p>Most of the changes are due to improvements in the Stan and Math libraries.</p>
<p>See the release notes for <a href="https://github.com/stan-dev/stan/releases">Stan</a> and <a href="https://github.com/stan-dev/math/releases">Math</a> for more details.</p>
Download instructions
<p><strong>Note:</strong> Download using the cmdstan zip or tar.gz links below for a version that includes Stan and all libraries. (The "Source code" downloads does not include the Stan library and will not work as-is.)</p>

BuildBot: A Robotic Software Development Monitor in an Agile Environment
In this paper, we describe BuildBot, a robot developed to assist
with continuous integration of a software build in Agile development teams.
BuildBot can interact physically with individual members of the team and be an
active part of the development process by bringing together human-robot
interaction with human group dynamics and knowledge about software engineering
concepts. This paper describes the design and implementation of a robot that
can sense virtual stimuli, in this case the state of a software build, and
react accordingly in a physical way. By increasing awareness of the state of
the software build, BuildBot assists in the self-supervision of teams.We are currently acquiring citations for the work deposited into this collection.
