This document addresses the difference between SimPy versions 1.6 and version 1.6.1 in terms of changes and additions.

Changes

Change of Resource to work with Tally (new Resource API is backwards-compatible with 1.6).
Revised function allEventNotices() for debugging/teaching purposes. It returns a prettyprinted string with event times and names of process instances.

Additions

Addition of Tally data collection class as alternative to Monitor. It is intended for collecting very large data sets more efficiently in storage space and time than Monitor.
Addition of function setHistogram to class Monitor for initializing histograms.
Addition of function allEventTimes (returns event times of all scheduled events).
