I'm happy to freeze at root 4.04 since all root development time
seems to be going into root 5 at this point. With all the changes
going into ver 5, we aren't going to want to mess with it for a
while. Root 4 will probably be steady at 4.04 for the near future.
We should also freeze GEANT versions as well. They don't release as
frequently as the ROOT guys, but they have been known to change APIs
between releases (such as between 4.7.0 and 4.7.1) and break things.
If there are no objections, I'll reword the documentation to say that
RAT *requires*
- ROOT 4.04.02g (I'll test the latest patch release before making
this official)
- GEANT 4.7.1
Changes to that will only be made if there is a really compelling
reason and after testing on the various platforms.
