1 year ago I think a big thank you in version notes is a good option (cf. list of contributors).
Minor edits:
- BaRatinAGE and BaRatin become open-source (GPL3 license) and are available at https://github.com/BaRatin-tools
- BaRatinAGE is now available on Linux
- BaRatinAGE is now "stand-alone": it should work out-of-the-box on any (at least most!) Windows/Linux computers as it does not depend on a locally-installed version of Java anymore
- Rating curve can now be exported as an equation
- MCMC simulations can now be exported
- Unfeasible values are now removed before computing uncertainty envelops for the rating curve plots, unless they represent more than 75% of values
- Offset parameters "b" are now displayed in figures and tables (in addition to parameters k-a-c)
- A new prior vs. posterior consistency check is available (see More Plots...Remarks in the Rating Curve panel)
- Comma-separated .csv files are now supported for gaugings and stage time series (in addition to semicolon-separated ones)
- "SaveSpaghetti" option was not working and has been fixed
- New languages can now be added "on-the-fly", by just completing lang/dico.txt and providing help files in help/mylanguage (if not provided, fallback is English)
- This version ships with 26 languages, 12 being validated by native speakers (fr=French, en=English, es=Spanish, de=German, it=Italian, br=Portuguese (Brazil), cz=Czech, pl=Polish, ko=Korean, cn=Chinese, jp=Japanese, hb=Hebrew), 14 awaiting verification (ab=Arabic, ro=Romanian, nl=Dutch, sb=Serbian, mg=Hungarian, sl=Slovenian, sk=Slovak, fi=Finnish, et=Estonian, ru=Russian, uk=Ukrainian, sw=Swedish, am=Armenian, fs=Persian).
- New "purely proportional" remnant error model, with sigma = gamma*Q
- Color of prior activation stages has changed (to clarify that they are not the same as the posterior activation stages)
- Specifying non-increasing prior activation stages triggers an error message when attempting to compute the prior rating curve
- "useManning" preference (from menu Options...Preferences) was not handled properly and has been deactivated until a proper fix is implemented
- A warning message is issued before computing hydrographs if the (roughly) estimated disk space is above 10MB
- A warning message is issued before changing the number of controls
- Added a template .xls file to create a stage time series .csv file
- Various minor ergonomic improvements
- Updating of help files to reflect all these changes

The main novelties of v2.2.1 are summarized below, and I was thinking using this text as version notes accompanying the release. Please have a look and correct, complete and reorder as you see fit. I'll do a French translation as well (unless you wanna go for it, in which case please help yourself!) Also question: do we publish the list of persons who helped with translations, and if so where? I was thinking maybe as a big "thank you" at the end or the beginning of these version notes?
