+20Aug01=======================================================================
+1. protect against PC41s with field[3] == field[2]
+2. Redo Julian stuff as proper objects
+3. Make the various Log display come out forwards instead of backwards
+4. Add the dbgclean routine to system cron to clear out all debug files 
+more then 10 days old.
+19Aug01=======================================================================
+1. Fix rcmds
+2. make isolation when there are no filters present work again?
+3. dup check PC16/17/19/21 !
+17Aug01=======================================================================
+1. Sort out PC41 handling to include type 5 records for QRA locators and also
+remove all filtering (but retain ephemeral dup checking).
+2. Improve format checking in latlong and qra locators.
+3. Sort sh/st so that sh/st by itself displays only the local call not the
+whole lot (all 17000+ users records in my case). SH/ST ALL does this.
+16Aug01=======================================================================
+1. send a forward/opernam for a logged in user once a month (when they next
+login).
+2. rearrange rcmd stuff to be more maintainable and also be certain that 
+they are translated in both directions correctly for clx and ak1a style.
+3. Allow PC41s to be propagated and hope that the ephemeral dup filters 
+do their job!

+30Jul01=======================================================================
+1. changes to manuals to add links etc. (g0vgs)
+23Jul01=======================================================================
+1. made ann,dx spots,wwv,wcy,wx more 'object oriented'.

+2. changed the spider.cgi in Arnold's borrowed java client to Ian's perl 
+script
+3. Added input route filtering
+4. put back the set/isolate logic into routing which is now overridable with
+filters whcih means a default filter is no longer generated. If you want the
+OLD behaviour, do rm /spider/filter/route/*.pl*, restart and try again. 
+5. Add http_proxy to Internet.pm and allow sh/qrz to use an HTTP Proxy
+13Jun01=======================================================================
+1. fix init cnd rinit cmds

+2. more work on Routing code.
+3. status/msg on its own will print the status of the msg system.
+4. add sh/newconfig command
+03Jun01=======================================================================
+1. Fix the problem with ExtMsg and unresolvable IP addresses, hopefully
+properly this time.
+15May01=======================================================================
+1. set/lockout now prevents any outgoing connection taking place.
+2. Started the new routing stuff which will run in parallel for a while.
+3. changed the msg timeout arrangements so that it might not get stuck so
+easily.

+14May01=======================================================================

+11May01=======================================================================
+1. allow stat/msg on priv 1
+07May01=======================================================================

+03May01=======================================================================
+1. It appears that for ages now, not enough PC19 and PC16s are being sent
+if you have more than one of them. Sigh..
+02May01=======================================================================
+1. put an upper limit on the number of concurrent errors allowed in command
+mode (20). This should disconnect runaway spot suckers....
+28Apr01=======================================================================
+1. fix an occasional problem with 'sorry connected to' messages
+23Apr01=======================================================================
+1. fix very long standing bug in storing and transmitting spots. The decimal
+point was left off :-(
+22Apr01=======================================================================
+1. Sysops can now have full privileges if there is a ExtMsg listener on 
+localhost (or everything) and they telnet to localhost and login with their
+callsign. This means that they don't need a client anymore (for local access)
+2. added input spot filtering. 
+3. Added run_cmd to DXCron which allows you to run any command on the system
+from the crontab. (Dunno why I didn't do this before). 
+18Apr01=======================================================================
+1. added Ian M0AZM's Java Client (SpiderConsole)
+17Apr01=======================================================================
+1. made a slight speedup on write in Msg.pm (about doubled it)
+16Apr01=======================================================================
+1. make the correct error messages come out on reject/accept when people
+leave out keywords like 'on'.
+2. Fairly major changes to the documentation tree.  Split the admin manual
+into 2 sections, Installation and Admin and merge the Windows stuff.
+15Apr01=======================================================================
+1. made some mods to the sgml documentation for 1.47
+2. added show/connect command
+11Apr01=======================================================================
+1. fixed more of the "xxx disappeared from yyy" messages
+2. altered the build no logic so that it always checksums the same files
+regardless of whatever else you might have in the directory.
+3. made shortcut at shutdown so that you don't get a storm of PC21s on busy
+nodes as each connection goes down. Just send a pc39 to each interface and
+nothing else.
+4. changed action of SIG{INT} and SIG{TERM} so that they now work on MSWin32
+10Apr01=======================================================================
+1. altered PC21 logic somewhat to eliminate dup PC21s
+2. disconnect should remove dangling local users in the routing table.
+3. fixed nasty recursive timer bug
+4. added some extra info to make connect tracking a bit easier.
+5. improved docs on connect scripts a bit (to include agw connects)
+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
