Package Archives for Download

The current version removes deprecated code, completely updating it for the new package loading mechanism of GAP 4.4. It is not backward compatible with GAP 4.3.

There is no urgency to upgrade from the previous version of ACE (version 4.1), though that version will eventually be broken when ReadPkg and other similar deprecated package loading commands are removed from GAP.

Users who have not yet upgraded from GAP 4.3 must continue to use ACE 4.1.
