+09Apr01=======================================================================
+1. changed lockfile name to cluster.lck (from .lock) for MSWin's benefit
+08Apr01=======================================================================
+1. added a quick installation guide to the admin manual and removed references
+to client.pl (g0vgs)
+01Apr01=======================================================================
+1. changed agwrestart semantics. You need to use main::agwrestart() in your
+crontabs rather than AGWMsg::init();
+2. try to thread winclient.pl for MSWin32.
+31Mar01=======================================================================
+1. added agwrestart command
+2. add Iains Windoze installation manual (g0vgs)
+3. various alterations to adminmanual and initial version of the CVS changes
+file (g0vgs)
+30Mar01=======================================================================
+1. fix errors on accept in ExtMsg and in Msg
+2. fix the non-blocking problems of connects (and other things in general).
+non-blocking only works for unix implementations at the moment.
+3. add rinit command (sends a PC20)
+4. improve debuging so that stuff is always escaped and a new 'raw' debug 
+mode that shows everything sent and received in glorious hex and characters
+29Mar01=======================================================================
+1. add better tracking of AGW circuits (possibly)
+2. add set and unset/agwmonitor (ing) [for all the notice it seems to take]
+28Mar01=======================================================================
+1. AGW engine stuff now accepts incoming calls and at least attempts to do
+outgoing ones. YMMV.
+2. fixed 'always' telnet on a client line in a connect script
+27Mar01=======================================================================
+1. add first cut at an AGW Engine. Copy /spider/perl/AGWConnect.pm to 
+/spider/local and edit it appropriately. You shouldn't need a login and passwd
+if you are using the default setup. It may allow incoming connects (and then
+again it may not - I don't have a reliable infrostructure to test with at the
+moment). The AGW Engine is a M$ thingy, but that don't preclude you connecting
+to it from a unix box. 
+22Mar01=======================================================================
+1. edit the helpfile for set/debug and add help for show/debug
+2. Allow ^Z again on messages
+3. Added back onboard support for ax25 OUTBOUND connections. You will need
+exactly the same facilities as before (ie netrom_call, ax25_call suid root 
+etc) but it is called direct from the cluster.pl - client.pl is DEAD!
+19Mar01=======================================================================
+1. Add 'not allowed' messages into sh/filter with callsign and reduce priv
+2. decode %xx characters in winclient.pl
+necessary to 1.
+18Mar01=======================================================================
+1. minor changes to user and admin manuals.  Added revsion numbers
+17Mar01=======================================================================
+1. put block check back in, try a work around for EWOULDBLOCK/EINPROGRESS
+for M$. 
+16Mar01=======================================================================
+1. integrate build number into main cluster and change the PC18 to show 
+version and build in the text portion
+14Mar01=======================================================================
+1. first cut at outgoing ax25 /external program connects
+2. slight change of interface to connect
+3. added a build number to sh/version
+13Mar01=======================================================================
+1. implemented first cut at non blocking connect
+2. removed memory leakage in connects
+3. add link IP address if available on who
+4. made the \r\n work correctly on External connections
+5. removed client.pl
+6. fixed memory leakages in DXMsg
+7. fixed pc39/21 handling
+8. fixed routing table issues and general disconnection tidy up
+10Mar01=======================================================================
+1. minor changes to the admin manual to reflect differences in distibutions
+thanks to pa3ezl (g0vgs)
+2. add (finally) the first draft of the usermanual (g0vgs)
+05Mar01=======================================================================
+1. do some major surgery on the connect logic to shorten the possibility of 
+duplicate connects happening
+2. fix stupid error on sh/qrz queries that don't work
+04Mar01=======================================================================
+1. allow fallback to english for help
+03Mar01=======================================================================
+1. allow incoming and outgoing IP connects direct to cluster.pl
+2. fixed (long standing)a hole in PC17 handling
+3. added winclient.pl (actually just a very basic client) from Iain G0RDI
+4. Added Spanish as a language (thanks ea1dav) (g0vgs) 
+5. ignore BUST(ED) spots
+28Feb01=======================================================================
+1. allow sh/c gb7 (ie show the config of all gb7 nodes)(for example)
+2. get rid of spurious DXHash 'uninitialised' messages if no corresponding 
+file is present.
+3. changed policy of $censorpc in DXProt.pm so that badwords are looked for
+in all text announces etc.
+4. Unpad (remove excess spaces from) spotted callsigns in PC11. 
+5. test for opertaing system in various places and do different if M$
+27Feb01=======================================================================
+1. allow partial node callsigns on sh/c (eg sh/c gb7)
+2. Changed Msg.pm to allow a more generalised interface with more than one
+listener.
+3. Added IntMsg.pm to implement the internal connection management that is
+currently scattered about the cluster code.
+25Feb01=======================================================================
+1. Fixed watchdbg so that simple arguments work again
+22Feb01=======================================================================
+1. Added platform name to sh/version
+2. changed client.pl so that it send \r\n instead of \n on telnet connects
+3. added lineend '\r\n' command to connect scripts so you can override 
+defaults
+03Feb01=======================================================================
+1. Changes and additions to the manual and added a help file for sh/log (g0vgs)
+13Jan01=======================================================================
+1. Documentation alterations to match new commands etc (g0vgs)
+08Jan01=======================================================================
+1. Changed the way that badnodes, baddx etc work. There is a new general way
+implemented (dunno why I didn't do this before - hey ho...) as a consequence
+there are set/unset/show baddx (for bad dx callsigns) badnode (for dx from
+bad nodes) badspotter (for bad spotters of dx eg VE2STN). Expect more of 
+this sort of thing...
+2. Added one to the copyright dates...
+06Jan01=======================================================================
+1. Fix set/obscount so it actually works.
+2. Allow different number formats for set/pingint eg: 5m for 5 minutes and
+120s for 120 seconds (and 1h for 1 hour).
+03Jan01=======================================================================
+1. Added a txt directory for txt versions of manuals (g0vgs)
+2. Various documentation changes
+02Jan01=======================================================================
+1. added a help file for forward/latlong and updated the admin manual to
+match. (g0vgs)
+2. Add spot2csv.pl to convert spot files into tab delimited .csv format.
+3. Add show/route to see which interface a station is connected on.
+31Dec00=======================================================================
+1. add lat/long info to show/prefix
+30Dec00=======================================================================
+1. added latest version of the admin manual from Ian G0VGS.
+23Dec00=======================================================================
+1. don't route anything back down the channel it came from.
+2. and, in the process, fix some silly errors in routing converted rcmd PCs
+3. changed all occurrances of 'freq' in filter help to 'on' and corrected
+some errors (eg freq/ssb).
+4. added latest admin manual.
+18Dec00=======================================================================
+1. fix double printing of DB results
+2. add new style filtering for WWV and WCY to complete the set
+3. got the field nos right (hopefully) on Announces for filters
+05Dec00=======================================================================
+1. fix frequency hinting routine so it correctly handles things like 'on 23cm'
+where digits are the 'wrong' way round.
+2. made default max days to search for spots 3 months.
+3. added hex decodes for those pesky 'national' characters that aren't really
+in grepdbg and watchdbg.
+4. decide that we are using Latin-1 and therefore characters 0x80-0x9f are
+not allowed.
+5. fix the announces so that they are all UPPER CASE for poor old DXTelnet.
+03Dec00=======================================================================
+1. change grepdbg and watchdbg so that you can see a number of lines before
+the condx that you are looking for so:-
+  grepdbg 3 LOOP
+  watchdbg 3 LOOP 
+will show both the LOOP line and the preceeding 2 lines.
+2. add PCPROT to all error condx lines in DXProt.pm so that you can watch
+for them more easily.
+30Nov00=======================================================================
+1. remove %nn strings from dups of announces and spots
+2. remove check for ssids on PC41s

+26Nov00=======================================================================
+1. made it possible for sysop calls to be used on other nodes and still have
+anti loop checking on PC16/17.
+25Nov00=======================================================================
+1. -l <nnn> now works on C client
+2. -e toggles echo cancelling (normally on) on C client

+2. change sh/qrz to the new interface. MUCH QUICKER! you will need a user id
+and password from qrz.com to use it and you will have to copy the 
+/spider/perl/Internet.pm to /spider/local and alter it accordingly. Do 
+remember to set $allow=1 as well! The new interface comes courtesy of Fred
+LLoyd, the proprietor of http://www.qrz.com
