v4.0.0-beta3

This is a beta release of the HOPS4 software. Some minor build system fixes have been introduced. This includes the detection of C++17 support (for the matplot++ dependency), and revision of the python extensions build system. The HOPS python installation is now handled entirely by CMake, and pip is now only called in order to install dependencies (numpy, matplotlib, scipy) if the user toggles on the HOPS_PYPI_MANAGE_DEPS option.

v4.0.0-beta3

This is a beta release of the HOPS4 software. It also contains (the final) subset of the HOPS 3.26 software captured at SVN revision r4393. This release is intended for experimentation and is not meant for production use or processing. Support for plotting via matplot++ (gnuplot) has been added. This plotting backend is now the default instead of the python-matplotlib backend. In addition, the difx2hops executable now supports the export of DiFX files to the legacy mark4 format though the use of the "-k" flag.
