NEW - SU2 mesh output from Pointwise - more

Note I: Binary distributions for Mac OS X and Linux have reduced functionality; all optional libraries and dependencies are removed.  To run CGNS meshes and parallel computations, you must download the source code and compile with the appropriate optional dependencies described fully in the Installation page.

Note II: The Windows installer contains options for building with MPICH and CGNS support.

Note III: SU2 has been validated using the following C++ compilers: gcc 4.2.1, gcc 4.1.2, and icc 12.0.2. If you identify any problem using another C++ compiler, please let us know as soon as possible.
