More...
many improvements, some cleanup, most notably:

-better 3d support
-Numerix support removed
Add a python option (off by default).
2.3.1
(August, 2011)
New Functionality and Features
* Retina module has been contributed by Alexandre Benoit (in opencv_contrib
module).
* Planar subdivisions construction (Delaunay triangulation and Voronoi
tesselation) have been ported to C++. See the new delaunay2.cpp sample.
* Several new Python samples have been added.
* FLANN in OpenCV has been upgraded to v1.6. Also, added Python bindings
for FLANN.
* We now support the latest FFMPEG (0.8.x) that features multi-threaded
decoding. Reading videos in OpenCV has never been that fast.
* Over 100 issues have been resolved since 2.3 release.
2.3
(July, 2011)
Modifications and Improvements since 2.3rc
* A few more bugs reported in the OpenCV bug tracker have been fixed.
* Documentation has been improved a lot!
2.3rc
(June, 2011)
New Functionality, Features
* Many functions and methods now take InputArray/OutputArray instead of
"cv::Mat" references. It retains compatibility with the existing code and
yet brings more natural support for STL vectors and potentially other
"foreign" data structures to OpenCV.
core:
* LAPACK is not used by OpenCV anymore.
* Arithmetic operations now support mixed-type operands and arbitrary number
of channels.
features2d:
* Completely new patent-free BRIEF and ORB feature descriptors have been
added.
* Very fast LSH matcher for BRIEF and ORB descriptors will be added in 2.3.1.
calib3d:
* calibration.cpp sample. With the new pattern calibration accuracy is
usually much higher.
stitching:
* opencv_stitching is a beta version of new application that makes a panorama
out of a set of photos taken from the same point.
python:
* Now there are 2 extension modules: cv and cv2. cv2 includes wrappers for
OpenCV 2.x functionality. opencv/samples/python2 contain a few samples
demonstrating cv2 in use.
* Over 250 issues have been resolved.
Upstream changes:
-----------------
Bug fix release.
- Fixed a display corruption bug that occurred when navigating away
from camera pages.
- Optionally display a progress bar in the Unity sidebar.
- Clarified several strings.
- The application now recovers gracefully from corrupted tag data.
- Updated help documentation.
Remove devel/py-ctypes (only needed by and supporting python24).
Remove PYTHON_VERSIONS_ACCEPTED and PYTHON_VERSIONS_INCOMPATIBLE
lines that just mirror defaults now.
Miscellaneous cleanup while editing all these files.
The problem is the following: When checking the CFLAGS / LIBS for
including pthread support, any warning on stdout is counted as a no.
However, the test does not use CFLAGS on the command line, which
produces a harmless debug warning. This workaround has the consequence
of adding the default CFLAGS twice on the command line but this is not
a problem.
Version 1.5.10beta01 [February 24, 2012]
Removed two useless #ifdef directives from pngread.c and one from pngrutil.c
Always put the CMAKE_LIBRARY in "lib" (removed special WIN32 case).
Removed empty vstudio/pngstest directory (Clifford Yapp).
Eliminated redundant png_push_read_tEXt|zTXt|iTXt|unknown code from
pngpread.c and use the sequential png_handle_tEXt, etc., in pngrutil.c;
now that png_ptr->buffer is inaccessible to applications, the special
handling is no longer useful.
Fixed bug with png_handle_hIST with odd chunk length (Frank Busse).
Added PNG_SAFE_LIMITS feature to pnglibconf.dfa and code in pngconf.h
to reset the user limits to safe ones if PNG_SAFE_LIMITS is defined.
To enable, use "CPPFLAGS=-DPNG_SAFE_LIMITS_SUPPORTED" on the configure
command or put "#define PNG_SAFE_LIMITS_SUPPORTED" in pnglibconf.h.
Revised the SAFE_LIMITS feature to be the same as the feature in libpng16.
Added information about the new limits in the manual.
Version 1.5.10beta02 [February 27, 2012]
Updated Makefile.in
Version 1.5.10beta03 [March 6, 2012]
Removed unused "current_text" members of png_struct and the png_free()
of png_ptr->current_text from pngread.c
Added palette-index checking. Issue a png_warning() if an invalid index is
found.
Version 1.5.10beta04 [March 10, 2012]
Fixed PNG_LIBPNG_BUILD_BASE_TYPE definition.
Fixed CMF optimization of non-IDAT compressed chunks, which was added at
libpng-1.5.4. It sometimes produced too small of a window.
Version 1.5.10beta05 [March 10, 2012]
Reject all iCCP chunks after the first, even if the first one is invalid.
Issue a png_benign_error() instead of png_warning() about bad palette index.
Fixed an off-by-one error in the palette index checking function.
Revised example.c to put text strings in a temporary character array
instead of directly assigning string constants to png_textp members.
This avoids compiler warnings when -Wwrite-strings is enabled.
Version 1.5.10 [March 29, 2012]
Prevent PNG_EXPAND+PNG_SHIFT doing the shift twice.
Revised png_set_text_2() to avoid potential memory corruption (fixes
CVE-2011-3048).
This fixes a vulnerability caused due to an error when parsing a CMAP
record which can be exploited to cause an out-of-bounds write via
specially crafted JPEG files. (SA48498)
