+18Nov99=======================================================================
+1. Added ping obs counter together with Time::HiRes timers. This will dis-
+connect nodes that fail to respond to 3 ping requests (on the 4th attempt). 
+The default time is a ping every 3 mins, therefore a link will be struck out
+after 12 minutes of nil response.
+17Nov99=======================================================================
+1. Started using Data::Dumper for things again
+2. 'Fixed' DXUser file corruption?
+3. Allow multiline (ie lines with \n in them) output in $DXChannel::send 
+4. Added Andrew K9CW's updated wpxloc.raw, regenerated prefix_data.pl
+5. Put in callsign matching and stuff into sh/sun.
+14Nov99=======================================================================
+1. added BBS.pm to start BBS input of mail
+2. fixed eval in DXUser to log errors rather than banging out
+12Nov99=======================================================================
+1. added sh/sun command kindly supplied by Steve K9AN.
+2. allow ^Z on its own on a line to terminate a message
+08Nov99=======================================================================
+1. added spoofing (mk1 version) for sysops, useful for those little jobs like
+reseting a user's qra locator and such like "spoof g7brn set/qra jo02lq".
+2. fixed set/location so it stores the qra locator in the qra locator slot, 
+NOT the lat/long (who wrote this stuff...?).
+07Nov99=======================================================================
+1. reduced the amount of stuff compared against for dup announces.
+2. Check the regex for DK0WCY announces produces results before storing it as
+a WWV.
+3. Added some logging for set/priv (un)set/lockout.
+4. Added test long path calc to sh/muf
+5. Only wonder down the msg queue every minute
+6. Put in the initial DB code (at last), you can create and remove local and
+standard remote dbs, you can import AK1A style .FUL ascii databases, you can
+enquire on a local or remote database.
+7. A return ping to a node will clear down all outstanding pings to
+that node (which might cause some confusion if more then one ping is
+outstanding for a node, but then - shit happens).
 04Nov99=======================================================================
 1. Removed ~ from the end of the PC18.
 2. Removed a hangover from duff character checking in cluster.pl
