+07Jan06=======================================================================
+1. Fixed problem with the standalone 'showdx' program pointed out by Leo,
+IZ5FSA.
+2. Fixed rounding problem on entering spots as pointed out by Ron N5IN.
+3. Fixed problem with badspotters sending DX as pointed out by Luigi IK5ZUK.
+4. Added some extra logging for swearing so that we can see what lines used
+which swear words. Hopefully this will allow sysops to refine their swearing
+filters more easily.
+06Jan06=======================================================================
+1. Fix problem with rcmd <call> sh/fdx
+27Dec05=======================================================================
+1. put some more flesh on the SQL stuff (which may turn out to be a bit of a
+red herring as it doesn't appear to be significantly faster (for spots) than
+the existing code).
+21Dec05=======================================================================
+1. Add start of optional SQL working.
+2. Fix BadWords so that the simple word check splits words on word boundaries.
+13Dec05=======================================================================
+1. upissue version no to 1.52
+07Nov05=======================================================================
+1. Fix warnings on filtering spots where the filter was looking at US states
+and there is no US state in the spot.
+2. Fix the dupes caused by having a prefix in the last characters of the
+comment.
+01Nov05=======================================================================
+1. add log2csv.pl for printing out logfiles
+25Oct05=======================================================================
+1. Incorporated the cty.dat from Jim dated today (25Oct05).
+08Oct05=======================================================================
+1. Reject PC11s with blank spot callsigns
+01Sep05=======================================================================
+1. Change the logic of propagating WWV broadcasts. Now all non-input filtered
+PC23s will be sent on. Previously only the first successful new WWV was
+rebroadcast.
+2. fix the problem with by_dxcc and origin_dxcc not working on WWV.
+29Aug05=======================================================================
+1. try something else to resolve/prevent more of these spot dupes. It appears
+that there is software out there chopping off variable amounts from the ends
+of comment fields. This makes the task of detecting dupes that much harder.
+10Aug05=======================================================================
+1. trim dx spot duplicate length after normalisation
+2. Do the same for announces
+08Jul05=======================================================================
+1. new CTY.DAT encorporated
+27May05=======================================================================
+1. change copyright in dbg message at startup.
+25May05=======================================================================
+1. Added a means to import a script of arbitrary commands to allow external
+programs to do stuff.
+23Mar05=======================================================================
+1. fix (un)set/badspotter so that it only stores non-ssid calls.

+21Mar05=======================================================================
+1. log AGW port on connection
+2. merge in latest (2Mar2005) cty.dat
+3. fix command searching so it does not pick up false positives for commands
+with / in them in directories that don't have that.
+4. Important security change.
+5. add missing input filter for WWV
+16Mar05=======================================================================
+1. make the correct correction to the DL entry in wpxloc.raw (left out the
+'N' of 'North' in the latitude).
+2. Severely reduce the dupes caused by some of the badly configured / written
+spot suckers out there.
+13Mar05=======================================================================
+1. There has been a mix up in the Aranea1 branch. I have managed to merge a
+change that I have been meaning to do for ages. I have now made that change
+here.
+27Feb05=======================================================================
+1. fix duping on bad spot suckers that copy the prefix that is put at the end
+of the comment section by AR-C nodes becoming the whole comment.
+26Feb05=======================================================================
+1. Added show/grayline command from Steve K9AN. This is also aliased to
+show/greyline :-)
+2. fix spot dupe ambiguity on spotter having an SSID (remove it).
+25Feb05=======================================================================
+1. Changed the way spot deduping is done. This is likely to make deduping much
+stricter. In essence a person cannot spot the same call on the same frequency
+more than once an hour (configurable) unless he makes a (non-duped) comment
+as well.
+2. Added Swains Island
+3. Added TO4G for Glorioso
+19Feb05=======================================================================

+2. added some FAQs.
+05Feb05=======================================================================
+1. Fix a long standing (ie since the first bulletin was sent) bug with old
+mail not being deleted until a restart was done.
+2. As well as a duplicate check on existing bulletins, I have added a check
+the message is not (already) too old.
+3. fix problem for perl < 5.6 in Thingy.pm
+03Feb05=======================================================================
+1. Added latest Spanish translations courtesy of Angel EA7WA.
+2. Force all languages to use pr in en in Messages, as the prompt is
+the same for all.
+19Jan05=======================================================================
+1. More Spanish changes by Angel, EA7WA.
+2. add language dependant motd files. You can now have motd_{lang} and
+motd_nor_{lang} (eg for Spanish: motd_es and motd_nor_es) for normal and
+non-registered (if you use registration) users respectively. Based on an idea
+from Angel, EA7WA.
+18Jan05=======================================================================
+1. Added missing Spanish translation courtesy of Angel EA7WA.
+2. Really incorporate latest cty.dat (11Dec04) as opposed to merely thinking
+I had (and still add 3X0Y as well).
+3. fix ? all in non english language
+4. Alias sh/st and sh/sta back to show/station from show/startup.
+17Jan05=======================================================================
+1. Added 3Y0X to Peter Island 3Y in cty.dat.
+16Jan05=======================================================================
+1. Added the changes to Canadian Prefixes so that usdbraw.gz from Charlie
+K1XX's website (http://dxc.k1xx.com/download) dated after 1Jan05 will include
+Canadian city and province data as well the existing US data.
+2. Improve the apropos command to take better account of language and do
+a better job of only showing english stuff for commands where there really is
+no local language version.
+15Jan05=======================================================================
+1. knocked over a few possible ways of people annoying other people thru
+the use of scripts
+2. Fixed problem in DXCommandmode with an indirect call that did not work
+in perl < 5.8.0.
+3. Add Spanish translations of new scripting commands in help, from Angel
+EA7WA.
+13Jan05=======================================================================
+1. Fixed prompting in languages other than English.
+2. Fixed language problem with spoof, but that simply hides a whole can of
+worms that I shall have to address later.
+3. Added make clean to src Makefile (!!!)
+12Jan05=======================================================================
+1. Add $main::bumpexisting variable which allows a new connection for a user
+call to disconnect an existing connection with the same call. The default for
+this variable is 'true' (1). This means that existing behaviour has changed.
+set/var $main::bumpexisting = 0 to return to original behaviour.
+2. Remind a user every hour (as default) that they have new messages.
+set/var $DXCommandmode::msgpolltime = 3*3600 to set it to 3 hours.
+3. Allow some substitutions in set/prompt (call, date, time and
+cluster call) and add dxspider just before the > as standard.
+4. Add $main::allowdxby variable so that sysops can switch off the
+'DX BY <othercall' command. It is set to 0 (ie disabled) by default. This
+is for sysops who don't want to bump privilege to allow it. That still works
+as before.
+5. Fix the bug in 'dx by <call>' that causes only the first word of the
+comment to be recorded.
+6. Fix bug counting backwards over a leap year in Julian.pm which meant that
+sh/dxstats doesn't start at 'yesterday' anymore.
+7. Added set/startup and show/startup commands to allow users and sysops
+to create and display startup scripts. There is also an unset/startup to
+remove a script.
+27Dec04=======================================================================
+1. add improved VE data from Charlie K1XX. You should update usdb as well.
+22Dec04=======================================================================
+1. Changed all the names of US prefixes to be prepended with their State code.
+thus "Alaska-KL7" becomes "AK-Alaska-KL7".
+21Dec04=======================================================================
+1. added AGW port no after an example by IW5DEZ.
+2. modified links command to suggestions by Charlie K1XX.
+3. added show/groups command to show recently used chat groups by Tommy
+SM3OSM.
+4. fixed T8 / V6 ambiguity (at least basically).
+20Dec04=======================================================================
+1. updated create_prefix.pl to only use (supplied) wpxloc.raw and cty.dat
+2. Added IG9, GM/S, 4U1V and some other detail changes to make it compatible
+with cty.dat.
+3. regenerated prefix_data.pl with updated wpxloc.raw and cty.dat 11Dec04.
+17Dec04=======================================================================

+2. fix the default in show/qrz
+06Dec04=======================================================================
+1. fix show/mydx if there is no defined spotfilter
+07Oct04=======================================================================
+1. added the ability for people to import chat from external programs.
+create a directory called /spider/chat_import, make sure it is writable
+by any applications that might dump stuff in there (chmod 1777
+/spider/chat_import on *nux). Put a file with a sensible name in there;
+the first part of the name will be the chat group to whom the message will
+be sent. So solar.txt.12325 = SOLAR. Announces can also be sent to local, all
+and sysop (ie files whose name begins with those names). Each line in the
+file becomes a chat line or an announce. See importwwv.pl for an example.
+DO NOT USE importwwv.pl, I am already using it and if you do as well, people
+will get duplicates which will ANNOY THEM!!! It is just an example.
+23Aug04=======================================================================
+1. add the start of an alternative routing engine (RouteDB)
+20Aug04=======================================================================
+1. Added new protocol specification to techdoc
+17Aug04=======================================================================

+28Jul04=======================================================================
+1. backported 'Investigate' from NP branch so that only pingable nodes
+are 'believed'.
+2. added missing entries in Internet.pm for sh/contest
+26Jul04=======================================================================

+1. fix previous fix of sh/dx
+09Jan04=======================================================================
+1. removed PC90 which was breaking various filtering things.
+2. added realtime spot formats to sh/dx (at least in basic form), this is
+activated by using either of the keywords 'real' of 'rt' on the command
+line. Also added sh/fdx as an alias.
+01Jan04=======================================================================
+1. move position of USDB init to get rid of an obscure bug pointed out by
+Charlie K1XX.
+2. Remove redundant documentation
+31Dec03=======================================================================
+1. alter remote database handling to 'new standard'.
+30Dec03=======================================================================
+1. updated website to make it clear(er) that it all works under Windows (like
+wot Charlie said...).
+2. made the changes to the German Messages that Thomas DL3SBB sent me a
+loooong time ago.
+3. made 'dx by' require at least privilege 1.
+29Dec03=======================================================================
+1. updated dxoldtonew.pl so that it takes an AK1A DX.DAT file (argument on
+command line or a default of /spider/data/DX.DAT and outputs the standard
+DXSpider format spot files. Please be warned that if any of these files
+already exist, the data will be appended onto the end of the file. Please
+make sure you have backups or at least be aware that this may give strange
+results which may be 'out of order'.
+24May03=======================================================================
+1. Added more french translations from Robert (HB9BZA) and we now have some
+french help as well (also from Robert). A splendid effort. Thank you.

+02Apr03=======================================================================
+1. Fix some minor problems with the manuals (g0vgs)
+01Apr03=======================================================================
+1. Update filtering primer, changes by N3RD (g0vgs)
+28Mar03=======================================================================
+1. Added an excellent document on filtering to the manuals from Jim, W3BG
+2. started to remove old documents (g0vgs)

+to standard. Add kludge to remove rewritten chats if I see them.
+3. Only send chat PCs to spider or AK1A boxes
12Mar03=======================================================================
1. added HC and QRZ.com to possible QSL locations, if you want to pick up
historical info (ie start again), run create_qsl.pl after update and restart
which will allow local and remote users to execute commands as though they
are Databases. You can also include these databases in chains. What you do
with this, is ofcourse a moot question.
+3. Update manuals (g0vgs)
11Mar03=======================================================================
