We are pleased to announce the release of Gmsh 3.0.0! This is a major milestone for Gmsh, as version 3.0.0 adds full constructive solid geometry features: see https://youtu.be/dywdlaaE1U8 for a short video, and http://gitlab.onelab.info/gmsh/gmsh/tree/master/demos/boolean for various examples.

New in 3.0.0: new constructive solid geometry features and boolean
operations using OpenCASCADE; improved graphical user interface for interactive,
parametric geometry construction; new or modified commands in .geo files:
SetFactory, Circle, Ellipse, Wire, Surface, Sphere, Block, Torus, Rectangle,
