+27Dec21=======================================================================
+1. Fix "kwalitee control" issue in /spider/cmd/dx.pl.
+22Dec21=======================================================================
+1. Add the possibility to do "sender verify" that spots (and later on, other
+ things like announce etc) are coming from spotters that exist on the node
+ that the PC11/61 says it does. At the moment, this is advisory as many
+ users seem to be on web clusters and many of them do not send PC61 and also
+ don't update the node's routing tables that normal node usage would do.
+2. Prioritise PC61 spots over PC11 spots wherever possible. Also promote PC11
+ spots to PC61 where the spotter's IP is known.
+3. Add a shell script "perlbrew-dxspider" that can be used for starting the
+ node when using perlbrew (i.e. more modern perls) on older distros such
+ as Centos 7/8.
+4. Allow to "dx by <spotter> ip <ip address> <qrg> <spot call> <comment>.
+ This is added as a convenience measure for webcluster authors while waiting
+ for the internal websocket interface (or because they cannot use that).
+ This can only be used by suitably privileged users.
+ This likely to be a temporary measure and will be immediately withdrawn if
+ there is any sign of abuse.
+11Dec21=======================================================================
+1. Removed dependency on perl Git package.
+2. Force code to change directory to $DXSPIDER_ROOT || '/spider'. Also force
+ git -C $root describe.
+3. Change git commands AGAIN to work on old perls (which mojo won't work on,
+ but it makes my life easier).
+4. Change version strings to include the perl version in use.
+10Dec21=======================================================================
+1. Fix the output of set/dxgrid, set/usstate and set/dxcq or set/dxitu to how
+ it was always supposed to be since 2003.
+09Dec21=======================================================================
+1. Moved isregistered to DXChannel for safety...
+08Dec21=======================================================================
+1. Get to the bottom of why ssid'd calls were using the base call's
+ credentials. This should now work as expected.
+06Dec21=======================================================================
+1. Improve console.pl scrolling. Split long lines (eg on announcements.
+04Dec21=======================================================================
+1. Fix illogicalities in USDB creations and make sure that O_CREAT on tie does
+ NOT encounter an existing file to barf about. Even though it shouldn't.
+ Thanks Howard WB3FFV.
+2. Fixed a typo in show/registered that prevents a list of callsigns being
+ searched for. Got rid of some over complex code. Thanks Fabrizio iZ0UIN.
+3. Fix long line wrapping in console.pl
+03Dec21=======================================================================
+1. Move motd and issue files to local_data if not already there.
+30Nov21=======================================================================
+1. Fix sh/dx with callsigns that have /p or VE/G1TLH in them.
+2. Add unset/ak1a, unset/arcluster aliases and some minimal help for UNSET/
+ SPIDER, NODE, ARCLUSTER, AKIA and also SET/USER.
+26Nov21=======================================================================
+1. *Really* change spot display format and sh/dx format "back the way they
+ were. But They won't stay that way for long!!!! There are four (yes, count
+ them) completely unused spaces at the end of the line!!!!
+25Nov21=======================================================================
+1. Restored spot format back to the way it was.
+2. Added CTY-3127 prefixes
+24Nov21=======================================================================
+1. Make /spider/perl/create_sysop.pl work on a base git cloned tree.
+2. Add /spider/local /spider/local_cmd /spider/local_data to git.
+3. Make user supplied console width (set/width) sticky.
+19Nov21=======================================================================
+1. Add the ability of console.pl to resize and have dx spots also resize so
+ that the comment field's size will increase accordingly. Sh/dx amd sh/mydx
+ also work similarly. If you make the console width smaller or wider then
+ spots already on the screen will not resize.
+2. For client programs that parse the output (why? use set/ve7cc to get more
+ easily machine parsed output), a new command "set/width <width>" is
+ available.
+18Nov21=======================================================================
+1. Add a dx spot cache which will store 2 days worth (configurable) of spots.
+ This is then used by the vast majority of simple sh/dx queries without
+ using a sub process. A simple sh/dx is any sh/dx that does not have an
+ "expression" such as "sh/dx g1tlh". So "sh/dx", "sh/dx 200", "sh/mydx" will
+ always run in the main program via the cache. Certain client programs (no
+ names, no pack drill) will notice the difference immediately. It's also a
+ bit snappier.
+2. set/badspotter or set/badnode will work for RBN input.
+3. RBN input with invalid QRGs will be dropped with a nice friendly message
+ rather than a scary exception message about multiplication thrown by one
+ of the libraries that I use.
+4. Added CTY-3126 prefixes.
+5. Silently ignore self spotting below 1240000Khz (change
+ $Spot::minselfspot to 0 to disable or some other freq in Khz). NOTE this
+ will appear as a spot to the spotter's feed, but will not be passed on.
+15Jul21=======================================================================
+1. Fix long standing bug in crontabs that commands with " rather than ' around
+ strings could cause those commands not to work.
+2. Add CTY 3117 prefixes.
+15Mar21=======================================================================
1. Fix DXUtil::localdata so that it does actually prefer the latest version
of a file regardless of whether it is in /spider/data or /spider/localdata.
2. Add CTY-3105 prefixes.
