Hi.
Because of some confusion in recent weeks about the state of the
tracking code, I would like to announce that the current default track
fitter
is the SIMD-enabled Kalman Filter (DTrackFitterKalmanSIMD). For those
of you who are using 32-bit machines for which the SIMD instructions
caused crashes, I have implemented a work-around that means you will
still get the latest Kalman Filter code but without the SIMD
instructions. The previous default fitter (ALT1, Dave's global fitter)
is still available but is no longer under development. The
non-SIMD-enabled Kalman filter (DTrackFitterKalman) is deprecated and
will be removed from the repository shortly.
