Dear FLUKA Users,

A new Fluka release, fluka2011.2x, is available on the web site.
It substitutes for all purposes fluka2011.2c, as usual no further
assistance will be provided for fluka2011.2c and all users are kindly
invited to move to fluka2011.2x.

This is NOT YET the full new release the development team is working on
since a long time, but rather an "interim" release (hence the
out-of-sequence name) which marries fluka2011.2c with some new important
features which were felt ready for production.

By far the most important novelty is the inclusion of the "new" Dpmjet-3
as improved in the past years, which compares significantly better than
the previous version with available LHC data at centre-of-mass energies
in excess of 2 TeV.

The release for the time being includes tar files and rpm's for Linux
versions compiled with g77 and gfortran-7.3. It also includes for the
first time a Mac version compiled with gfortran 7.2, which is still
somewhat experimental. Versions for Linux and Mac compiled with gfortran
6.4 will follow in the next weeks for those who did not yet update
to 7.x. No Flupix image for Windows will be provided, rather an
image based on a different environment is in the work and will appear
sometimes in the (near) future.

Users are strongly invited to read the release notes (a copy is
attached to this message) for further details. As with every new release,
some problems are possible despite the extensive checks, if so please
contact the developer team through our discussion list.

               The Fluka developer team
