                        ===================

Some of the development/fixes included since the last reference tag are:

   o Fixed problem in rotation of final state in the coherent_elastic module
     affecting elastic scattering in hadronic physics.
   o In physics-lists, fixed initialisation problem for QBBC_HP and 
corrected
     flag for HP regime in G4HadronElasticPhysics() to be 'true' for LHEP_HP
     and QGSP_HP.
