#+TITLE: Quantum Package Release notes
* Version 2.2
** Changes
- Python3 replaces Python2
- Travis CI uses 3 jobs

- Documentation in ~src/README.rst~
- Added two-body reduced density matrix
- Added basis set correction
- Added CAS-based on-top density functional
- Improve PT2 computation for excited-states: Mostly 2x2
diagonalization, and some (n+1)x(n+1) diagonalizations
- Error bars for stochastic variance and norm of the perturbed wave function
- Improve PT2-matching for excited-states
- Compute the overlap of PT2 excited states
- Renamed SOP into CFG
- Improved parallelism in PT2 by splitting tasks
- Use max in multi-state PT2 instead of sum for the selection weight

*** User interface
- Added ~qp_basis~ script to install a basis set from the ~bse~
command-line tool
- Introduced ~n_det_qp_edit~, ~psi_det_qp_edit~, and ~psi_coef_qp_edit~ to accelerate the opening of qp_edit with
large wave functions
