[GAP Forum] Example package updated

[Greg Gamble]

Dear GAP Forum,

This is to announce the release of version 2.0 of the Example package.
The Example package is intended  as  a  prototype/template  of  a  GAP
package that hopefully new  package  writers  will  find  useful.  The
package complements the detailed instructions found in  the  Reference
Manual (chapter 74) and the Extending GAP Manual (chapter 4), links to
which, along with other useful information, can be found by  following
the `Packages' then `For Authors' links at the GAP website:

http://www.gap-system.org

Also on the `Packages' page(s) is a link to the Example package.

This new version of the  Example  package  is  fully  up-to-date  with
respect to the new package loading mechanism of GAP 4.4,  and  removes
all obsolete code. New GAP package writers are  urged  to  base  their
package on this new version of  the  Example  package  and  not  older
versions of the package.  Comments  exist  in  the  package  files  to
explain the changes from GAP 4.3 to GAP 4.4.  The  `Authorhints'  link
from the `Packages' -> `For  Authors'  page  described  above,  has  a
section `How to adjust a package after the release of GAP  4.4?'  that
provides details of these changes.

The new version of the Example package can be downloaded directly from

http://www.gap-system.org/Packages/example.html
