[ferret_users] Ferret upcoming release - and a bug report

[Ansley Manke <ansley.b.manke@xxxxxxxx>]

Hello everyone,
We're getting ready to make  a Ferret release, and wanted to let you 
know about a bug that's been reported in the @STD transformation. @STD 
was introduced in Ferret v6.9, and this bug is in all versions of Ferret 
since then.

In the documentation, we say that when @STD is applied simultaneously to 
multiple axes the calculation is performed on the a block of data rather 
than as nested 1-dimensional Standard deviations. In fact the 
computation is currently being done on one axis at a time.

If you use this transformation in your scripts, you will want to get 
this update, and in the meantime, replace any multi-dimensional 
computation of @STD, with the appropriate expression using @VAR instead. 
Please watch for a notice of the upcoming Ferret release at the start of 
next week. It fixes this bug, introduces new capabilities, and makes a 
few other more minor bug fixes.

Feel free to write me with any questions.

Ansley
