+1. Mark nodes that send PC92 K records as spider. These will include VE7CC
+ nodes. NOTE: there appear to be user records marked as user or other sorts
+ of node, which (now) are actually spider (compatible) nodes and will be
+ marked accordingly.
+2. Adjust nodes currently marked as spider nodes, but are sending versions
+ not in the spider range of versions on PC92 A records as AK1A.
+3. Try to undo some damage where users have been autocreated with similar
+ attributes as nodes (locked out with privilege set to 1). This will
+ slowly fix this problem over time, but see item 4 for a 'big bang'
+ approach.
+4. It has come to my attention that there are a large number of users (of
+ all sorts) that have incompatible SSIDs. See 03Jan22/4 for details.
+
+ These are now being scrubbed out of the users file and also will present
+ as their normalised selves. If a -0* SSID is encountered then, if the
+ normalised version of that call is not present, it will be renamed to
+ that normalised call. If the normalised version of that user record is
+ already present, the un-normalised user record (-0*) will be removed.
+5. Make export_users do a batch clean (as in 3. above) and also get rid of
+ (default) 12+ year old unaccessed user records and (default) 2+ year old
+ "empty" records (with no qra/latlog/qth or handle).
+
+ NOTE: if you do an manual export_users (as opposed to the automatic one
+ done once a week), do not be alarmed by the number of old (i.e. more than
+ 12 years old) callsigns that it will get rid of. In my case it was about
+ ~2/5th of the users file. Still left me with over 100,000 "active" users.
+
+ In you are a bit twitchy about this, the code will copy the current
+ user_json and user_json.ooooo to user_json.keep and user_json.backstop
+ respectively. These files will never be overwritten unless you remove one
+ or both, when they will be regenerated on the next export_user.
+04Jan22=======================================================================
+1. Fix issue in the RBN (and probably other places) with callsigns that
+ contain trailing / in callsigns like: OH0K/6, K2PO/7 etc.
+2. Regard strange callsigns like DR4W-HB (seen in skimmer spots) as invalid.
+ This *should be* something like HB9/DR4W or (spit) DR4W/HB9.
+3. Fix the (probably) spurious locking out of users that are unknown to this
+ node, that come in from other nodes. These create new user records which
+ where then automatically locked.
+03Jan22=======================================================================
+1. Allow overrides (on modern versions of perl) with things in DXVars.pm, such
+ $clusterport. This is really only of use for people trying to run more than
+ one instance of DXSpider on the same machine.
+2. Fix who command to make RBN connections as RBN and not USER.
+3. Prevent other nodes claiming that $myalias or $mycall is a different type
+ (user or node) from changing our route table and thence the user type.
+4. Normalise callsigns of incoming connections to G1TST if G1TST-0 or G1TST-00
+ amd G1TST-2 if G1TST-02. There are 800+ instances of callsigns with extra
+ 0 characters in the SSID in my users file. Allow SSIDs up to 99.
02Jan22=======================================================================
1. Fix dx bug introduced to handle dx by ip <ipaddr> for webclusters.
2. Remove _add_thingy dbg message from general view.
