+18Jan99========================================================================
+1. added present(),presentish() and disconnect() to DXCron so that you can see 
+(easily) if a station is on the cluster anywhere and also disconnect them
+locally. 
+2. added rcmd() to DXCron so you can send an rcmd to someone else from crontab.
+3. <embarrassment>Fixed create_sysop.pl so that longitude is spelt correctly
+there as well</embarrassment> made the update work properly. NOTE create_sysop
+will only do what you expect if all cluster.pl and client.pl programs are 
+stopped.
+4. DXCron wasn't reading in reliably on startup, this is now (hopefully) fixed.
+the -M semantics are rather strange!
+5. The -w switch is now standard on cluster.pl
+6. Added last_connect() which gives the last connect time of a user (or now
+if connected).
+7. Added present_on(call, node) and presentish_on(ditto) which returns true if 
+the call is connected to the node.
+8. incoming messages for users will now send a 'new message' message (instead
+of merely generating the message)[who wrote this rubbish?].
+9. Hooked $SIG{__WARN__} and $SIG{__DIE__} so we store these nasty error 
+messages.
+10. Print the no of users on restricted protocol links if we have had PC50
+11. Had a go at making the sh/cl stats more accurate.
+12. PC11 was trying to call Local::spot1 instead of Local::spot, no warning 
+previously.
+13. Added a simple lockfile to prevent more than one cluster running at a time
+17Jan99========================================================================
+1. fixed some permission problems on DXLog.
+2. There is a circumstance in DXMsg which caused the cluster to stop on an 
+null ref pointer which I can't get to the bottom of but have bandaided out 
+for now.
+3. Started filter and Database code.
+4. Upper cased all the TO callsigns for sending to more than one station in
+messages.
+07Jan99========================================================================
+1. Fixed Geomag after emacs reformatted it wrong so sh/wwv works again.
+2. Added more range checking in WWV spots (they really are a heap of ...)
+3. Changed create_sysop.pl so that you can update as well as create the user 
+file
+4. Remove spotter's SSID from WWV spots
+06Jan99========================================================================
+1. Do some range checking for spots and WWV in the future (got a WWV for Oct 
+2034 whhich caused a bit of confusion!)
+2. Make WWV spots broadcast them to the users! (as opposed to merely storing 
+them)(thank you G0RDI).
+3. Allow users to do show/announce (thank you JE1SGH).
+4. Delay broadcasts to users if they are not in a 'prompt' state (means you can
+add messages and see what you are doing on a busy system)
+5. Made set/unset dx,ann,wx,talk,wwv do what is expected
+6. added set/sys_location and set/set_qra to set the cluster lat/long and qra
+7. New messages will now be announced on logon (if there are any)
+03Jan99========================================================================
+1. Upped the version no !!!!
+2. made the DXProtocol routines much less sensitive to '~' characters (JE1SGH)
+3. added '^' -> ':' conversions on ann, talk and dx commands
+4. You can now send messages containing blank lines.
+5. Fixed merge command problem reported by G0RDI
+28Dec98========================================================================
+1. Crossed fingers, got rid of the instabilities caused by execing programs
+at vast speed (reduced it significantly anyway).
+2. Personals will now move if homenode is known.
+3. Added Local.pm for doing local specials
 27Dec98========================================================================
 1. Various detail changes to remove some more warning with -w on
 2. Added DXCron handling - you can do crontabs now.
