+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.
+4. add $DXMsg::bulltopriv global to make msgs to known callsigns private
+14May01=======================================================================
+1. fix problem with re-reading in db definitions for remote databases.
+2. try to prevent situations where two can (semi) successfully login, probably
+under load, and get a 'tried to connect whilst already connected' abort.
+3. change the max number of days to search for spots to 100
+11May01=======================================================================
+1. allow stat/msg on priv 1
+07May01=======================================================================
+1. set/page 0 switches off paging
+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
+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=======================================================================

+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.

+some errors (eg freq/ssb).
+4. added latest admin manual.

+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.

+1. remove %nn strings from dups of announces and spots
+2. remove check for ssids on PC41s

+27Nov00=======================================================================
+1. alter sh/wcy output slightly
+26Nov00=======================================================================
