    <p>Dear all,</p>
    <p>I am glad to announce the release 1.10 of iFit (Aug 2017).</p>
    <p><br>
    </p>
    <p>iFit is a package aimed at importing, analyzing, plotting and
      fitting data of any kind.</p>
    <p>In addition, it has specific applications for:</p>
    <ul>
      <li>neutron instrument simulation using <a moz-do-not-send="true"
          href="http://www.mcstas.org">McStas</a> (automation,
        optimization, scanning...)</li>
      <li>lattice dynamics (<a moz-do-not-send="true"
          href="http://ifit.mccode.org/Models_Phonons.html">phonons</a>)
        using Python ASE and PhonoPy, as well as a set of DFT codes in
        the background</li>
      <li>neutron TAS resolution calculation and S(q,w) 4D model fitting
