## [0.6.4] - 2018-07-18

### Added

- New client User Code Model (UCM) for OPAL-RT HYPERSIM digital real-time simulator
- New node-types:
  - `infiniband` is using the Infiniband IBverbs and RDMA CM APIs for a low latency interface between simualation nodes.
  - `comedi` adds support for ADC and DAC cards supported by the [Comedi Linux control and measurment device interface](http://comedi.org).
- All header files can now be imported into C++ code. Missing `extern "C"` declarations have been added.

### Changed

- The VILLASnode project is now built with [CMake](http://cmake.org). The old Makefile have been removed.
