Dear DuMuX users,

with revision 13284, the AMG backend has been improved in two ways:

1. So far, PDELab 1.1 plus a patch has been needed for the backend. Now, 
it is based directly on dune-istl. Thus, if you are not using the 
multidomain applications of Dumux, you do not need (to patch) PDELab 
anymore. This also allows us to base the multidomain stuff on the recent 
release 2.0 of PDELab and dune-multidomain, without need for patching. 
See a dedicated email later today.

2. The convergence behavior is improved for parallel runs, at least for 
the cases tested so far. In particular, the same number of Newton 
iterations as for the sequential runs is observed.

These improvements have been achieved by Markus Blatt, who will be happy 
to improve also your code: http://www.dr-blatt.de/. Thank you, Markus!

Kind regards
Bernd
