[vtkusers] announce: 7.1.0 is cooked, out of the oven, and ready for carving

[Ken Martin]

You read it correctly, :-) I ***think***  the ability to render points as
spheres and lines as tubes is in there but what didn't make it is the
ability to render the vertices (i.e. the points used by the cells.).  But
if you turn on RenderPointsAsSpheres, SetPointSize and
SetRepresentationToPoints I think you will get spheres, it is just not as
nice an option as rendering a unique list of points referenced by the cells
which is what the VertexVisibility does. It just unfortunately was
developed right as the release process was going on.
