Significant Changes
1. The **range of supported Python versions** has changed; we now support (and test with) Python **3.8 – 3.11**.
2. We have changed the software license from GPL v3 to **Apache v2**.
3. We have completely reworked the interaction between the SpiNNaker client tool stack and our **Spalloc** service. This allows us to integrate our internal resource management more completely with the Human Brain Project/EBRAINS central resource management, as well as enabling much greater manageability of the SpiNNaker1M machine and allowing more ways to allocate resources (such as via specific sections of the machine). SpiNNMan contains the actual client software for this.
1. Authenticate to the service using either username/password or EBRAINS token (transparent for users of the Human Brain Project Portal or Jupyter services). Which you need depends on the account you want to submit via; user/pass is principally for local University of Manchester users only.
2. Access to the allocations is now proxied so the SpiNNaker1M service can be used from outside the University of Manchester without using the HBP Portal or Jupyter.
3. Can ask for a rectangle of boards at an arbitrary location of the overall machine.
