Issues Resolved in Version 2.8.0

• Issue 160 IrreundantGeneratingSubset behaved incorrectly when given a semigroup whose generating set consisted of a single repeated element. [Wilf Wilson]
• Issue 164 MatrixEntries
  gave an error for Rees 0-matrix semigroups whose matrices contain 0. [Wilf Wilson]
• Some tests failed when GAP was compiled in 32-bit mode. [Michael Torpey]

2.7.6

This is a very minor release changing the name of the README (to README.md) in
the PackageInfo.g file.

2.7.5

This is a minor release to fix Issue 151, and to make some changes for future compatibility with GAP. In Issue 151 when the method IsomorphismPermGroup was applied to a semigroups of non-permutation transformations the returned mapping was not an isomorphism.

This is also our first release on GitHub.
