+
+	* behavior change in master/slave part of code:
+	  if slave has a default value greater than master's one, it's raise
+	  SlaveError, didn't try to reduce the slave's length
+	* tiramisu/option.py: split into tiramisu/option directory
+	* tiramisu/option/masterslave.py: master/slaves have no a special
+	  object MasterSlaves for all code related to master/slaves options
+	* tiramisu/option/masterslave.py: master and slaves values (length,
+	  consistency, ...) are now check every time
