split monolithic Z3 proof reconstruction structure into separate structures, use one set of schematic theorems for all uncertain proof rules (to extend proof reconstruction by missing cases), added several schematic theorems, improved abstraction of goals (abstract all uninterpreted sub-terms, only leave builtin symbols)

Subject: Announcing Isabelle2009-1
To: isabelle-users@cl.cam.ac.uk

Isabelle2009-1 is now available.

This release improves upon Isabelle2009 in many ways, see the NEWS
file in the distribution for more details.  Some important changes
are:

* Isabelle tool "wwwfind" provides web interface for 'find_theorems'
on a given logic image.

* HOL-SMT: proof method "smt" for a combination of first-order logic
with equality, linear and nonlinear (natural/integer/real) arithmetic,
and fixed-size bitvectors.

* HOL-Boogie: an interactive prover back-end for Boogie and VCC.

* HOL: counterexample generator tool Nitpick based on the Kodkod
relational model finder.

* HOL: predicate compiler turning inductive into (executable)
equational specifications.

* HOL: refined number theory.

* HOL: various parts of multivariate analysis.

* HOL-Library: proof method "sos" (sum of squares) for nonlinear real
arithmetic, based on external semidefinite programming solvers.

* HOLCF: new definitional domain package.

* Revised tutorial on locales.

* ML: tacticals for subgoal focus.

* ML: support for Poly/ML 5.3.0, with improved reporting of compiler
errors and run-time exceptions, including detailed source positions.

* Parallel checking of nested Isar proofs, with improved scalability
up to 8 cores.
