 Important revisions after version 2.0.0 :
 @ Mar 03, 2009 - CA
   Moved into the new QEL package from its previous location (EVGModules)
 @ Mar 05, 2010 - CA
   Added a temprorary SpectralFuncExperimentalCode()
 @ Feb 06, 2013 - CA
   When the value of the differential cross-section for the selected kinematics
   is set to the event, set the corresponding KinePhaseSpace_t value too.
 @ Feb 14, 2013 - CA
   Temporarily disable the kinematical transformation that takes out the
   dipole form from the dsigma/dQ2 p.d.f.
 @ 2015 - AF
   New QELEventgenerator class replaces previous methods in QEL.
