+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)
+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.

+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

+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).

+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.

+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

+1. removed sh/call because the owner isn't happy about us using it.
+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
+06Nov00=======================================================================

+4. add the same speed up to general log printing
+5. fixed help \
+04Nov00=======================================================================
+1. fix sh/filter so ity now works for any callsign (and not just connected
+ones).
+2. Have only one is_callsign and not an iscallsign as well.
+3. Add set/hops and show/hops commands.
+4. Add unset/badnode command and put some help in for these commands
+03Nov00=======================================================================
+1. allow - in filter strings
+2. store only the filter expression NOTE BENE: you will need to clear all
+your existing filters and re-enter them!!!!!!
+3. Added announce filtering
+4. Fixed problem with announce filtering on output to the node
+02Nov00=======================================================================
+1. updated filtering logic. You will need to RECREATE your filters (clear/spot
+all, then start again) for testing.
+2. allow PC73 for DXNet
+3. added some help text for filtering and filtering spots in particular.
+01Nov00=======================================================================
+1. put PC11 field 2 check back to m for pc text.
+2. improve 'simple' callsign checking
+3. Added the first cut of the new user/sysop filtering code. This cut works
+for spots and the syntax is:-
+
+accept/spots [<call>] [input] [<filterno>] things ..
+reject/spots [<call>] [input] [<filterno>] things ..
+
+where things are:
+ freq 0/30000 | hf | hf/cw | 6m,4m,2m
+ call G,PA,HB9
+ info iota
+ by G,PA,HB9
+ call_dxcc 61,62
+ call_itu 31
+ call_zone 14,15,16
+ by_dxcc 61,62
+ by_itu 31
+ by_zone 14,15,16
+ origin GB7,MB7
+ channel GB7DJK,GB7BAA
+
+You can simply string these together on one line one after the other and
+there is an implied 'and', you can also string together with 'or' 'not' (or
+'!') and '(' and ')' - in otherwords an arbitrary expression.
+
+You can see what you have done with:
+
+show/filter [<call>]
+
+You can clear your work with:
+
+clear/spots [<call>] [input] [<filterno>|all]
+
+Have fun and someone please write the documentation.
+4. Added show/msg_status.pl sysop command (shows some info on what is busy in
+the message system)

+1. add 0x8e to the list of characters we clobber (make xterm go into graphics
+mode).
+30Oct00=======================================================================
+1. put in new Filter::it code and tested it. Now all we have to do is write
+the user access routines (oh and the help files!).
29Oct00=======================================================================
1. put in echo cancelling measures into the clients. This doesn't mean you
shouldn't take steps to prevent echoing on node links, but it may help where
(whatever you do) it still bloody echos! This is experimental.
2. store dxchan and mynode as callsigns (and not references) in the routing
-tables and do some checking in accessors to see if we can capture some errors.
+tables and do some checking in accessors to see if we can capture some errors.
+3. tart up the stat/chan etc display to give more useful debugging info
28Oct00=======================================================================
