+1. Introduce aliasing for localhost in DX Spots and outgoing PC92 A records
+   on login. There are two variables which can be set with the alias to use:
+      $main::localhost_alias_ipv4
+      $main::localhost_alias_ipv6 
+   These can be set in the /spider/scripts/startup, but this is only 
+   necessary if the node has more than one interface, or virtual hosts. If 
+   there is ONLY ONE ipv4 and/or ipv6 IP address on the node machine then 
+   these variables will be automatically populated on first use. But the SAFE
+   thing to do is to set them in the startup file.  
+
+   THIS FEATURE IS EXPERIMENTAL... 
+18Jan23=======================================================================
+1. Make sure than *every* channel has an IP address. Thank you (I think) Kin 
+   for pointing out that PC92 A records were not going out with IP addresses.
+   I'm guessing that other things (like spots) had a similar problem. 
+15Jan23=======================================================================
+1. Fix strange errors for carp on missing route_*_cache files on startup.
+14Jan23=======================================================================
+1. Fixed route PC11 promotions so that a new PC61 is actually generated and 
+   also sent instead of the original PC11 (to PC61 capable nodes).
+13Jan23=======================================================================
+1. Periodically store Routing tables and, if they are young enough (def: 3hrs)
+   autotically restore them on restart of the node. This will short circuit
+   the need to rebuild the routing tables from scratch on every restart - 
+   which is normally for something like software update. 
+2. Fix pc11 debugging stats with the correct figures. Sigh... Also move some
+   of the totals to a different place.
+3. Add show/spotstats command which gives the current spot statistics shown
+   during pc11 debugging (which means you don't need to set/deb pc11 unless
+   you really want that extra noise).
 12Jan23=======================================================================
 1. Regularise 'set/debug pc11' output to track all the routes through PC11 and
    PC61 processing and statistics.
