+09Oct01=======================================================================
+1. change Aliases to allow shutdown as a command again. If you have changed
+/spider/cmd/Aliases and you update from CVS you may find it better to remove
+this file and then do another 'cvs update'. Otherwise you may get conflicts
+and the Aliase file will not load properly. The cvs update will recreate
+the (now) missing file.
+2. Remove the 'please don't use XXXX on here' messages to prevent people
+from exploring the 'bad words space'. Three bad words will still disconnect
+without warning.
+3. Sending dx spots/announces with bad words will succeed - but only back to
+the sender. These two mods are designed to annoy the perpitrators of the
+sort of filth as much as possible whilst not inconveniencing 'normal' users.
+04Oct01=======================================================================
+1. allow a residence time of (default) 2 days before actually deleting a msg.
+2. reduce the number R: lines on a bull from a bbs to 2 (the origin and the
+last port of call).
+3. ignore deleted messages for queuing purposes
+4. store deleted status across restarts!
+5. make callsign checking more rigorous
+6. dup check PC49 (kill full)
+7. improved the regex matching of badwords (more efficient, better coverage)
+8. added default badword and badw_regex tables (as .issue files) which will
+activate unless there is one there already. It will NOT overwrite an existing
+file - so if you change it your changes will remain intact.
+03Oct01=======================================================================
+1. don't allow @WWW to become a 'TO' field...
+2. handle @gb7tlh.#35.eu type addresses as well
+02Oct01=======================================================================
+1. fixed the 'ever lengthening msg' syndrome and probably made the whole
+thing more reliable at the same time.
+2. do some restructuring of the msg system and upissue the version no.
+3. fix @xxxx syntax for bbs input
+01Oct01=======================================================================
+1. made login info not the default
+2. change the looping protoection for PC16/17/19/21 and also be more rigorous
+in who we accept which PC16/17/21's from.
+3. fix MAJOR disconnect bug introduced accidentally in the NP work.
+4. Try each badword with an S on the end as well and also check for 'f.u c'
+type things as well (this only works for a few wellknown english ones).
+5. Go back to the old way of caching commands (but without the silly warnings
+because I know better what I am doing now). This allows symbolic debugging
+of commands again without coredumps. Hurrah!
+6. Add badword handling for messages. Users will get rude messages back if
+they try to send naughty words in msgs. Incoming messages with badwords will
+be dropped on receipt and their contents logged.
+7. and if you swear 3 or more times you are unceremoniously logged out.
+30Sep01=======================================================================
+1. made some small bug fixes in rspf checking and also messages.
+23Sep01=======================================================================
+1. I have incorporated Steve's (K9AN) lastest sh/sun and sh/moon stuff which
+copes much better with some of the end effects that occur in these calc-
+ulations. You can now also see up to a year into the past or future. The
+results compare favourably with the US Naval Obs (unlike certain other
+software's output which "I would not want to use their results to aim my
+moon rocket..."). It also fixes some ambiguity about which day the results
+are actually for.
+21Sep01=======================================================================
+1. fix set/lockout so that it is possible to lock out all SSIDs except those
+specifically unlocked and so that you don't need to lock the non-SSID call in
+order to lock an SSID call. So set/lock g1tlh will lock out all instances of
+g1tlh, g1tlh-1, g1tlh-15 etc except (for instance) unset/lock g1tlh-9.
+2. show/lock allows partial callsign matching so sh/lock gb7 will only show
+GB7* calls that are locked.
+3. Had a grand shift around for the start of NP.
+19Sep01=======================================================================
+1. put in some rudimentory rsfp checking for various things
+2. tried to do some fixes on console.pl - YOU WILL REQUIRE Curses 1.06 from
+CPAN (perl -MCPAN -eshell, then at cpan> install Curses).
+17Sep01=======================================================================
+1. Fixed help and apropos commands so that they default to english if
+the language is not english and help in the 'not english' language isn't
+available.
+2. added some help text for sh/newc.
+15Sep01=======================================================================
+1. released 1.48
+2. found 1st bug, fixed unset/logininfo reseting itself after logout
+14Sep01=======================================================================
+1. added the start of script files on login/startup. You can now add
+commands (for example to set variables) to a file called
+/spider/scripts/startup. You can also put in scripts for a callsign which
+will be executed when that callsign logs on. A sample script is in the
+directory (you did remember to do cvs update -d?). User settable versions
+of this will happen when the general mechanism for doing that is available.
+2. Added set/unset/anntalk commands. If you unset/anntalk then you will
+no longer see many of the of talk like announces. Unfortunately you may
+miss the odd useful one as well (but since everything is repeated many times
+you probably won't :-)
+3. centralise the invalid callsign check so that g1tlh1 and similar calls
+will not be allowed to login anymore.
+4. Fiddle with the lockout mechanism so that set/login g1tlh also locks out
+g1tlh-1 -> g1tlh-15 UNLESS one of these is specifically unlocked.
+5. Make sh/log only show stuff that sh/ann, sh/talk, sh/rcmd doesn't.
+6. Make the scripts look for user and node_default files if there isn't a
+more specific one.
+7. add the blank command which prints nn blank lines (default 1), this cmd
+can also print lines of characters: see help for examples.
+13Sep01=======================================================================
+1. did some work on making talk more intelligent and fixed a>b problem.
+2. fixed a nasty problem on input when being hit with full buffers of
+data (eg at init time with large lists of node/users on fast links).
+3. fixed realtime input filter changing.
+4. added announce->talk conversion for routable calls when announces of the
+form 'to g1tlh hello', 't g1tlh hello' or 'g1tlh hello' appear.
+This also suppresses similar announces for users whose callsign is not the
+one in the announce.
+5. Change the badwords interface to be the same as baddx, badspotter et al.
+added set/badword, unset/badword and show/badword. This routine will auto
+convert (and delete afterwards) the old badwords file.
+6. fix intermittant bullitin mail forwarding?
+11Sep01=======================================================================
+1. added IP address logging of connections
+10Sep01=======================================================================
+1. clear/* node_default and user_default now work.
+2. in acc or rej/* you can now use (comma separated) prefixes as well as lists
+of numbers for things like *_dxcc, *_itu and *_cq (eg: by_dxcc ve,w); just
+remember that countries like ve and w have lots of zones and itus!
+3. Added all the clear/* commands to help and added some comments about 2.
+4. All filters (including *_default ones) are now reinstalled on channels in
+realtime, so changing a filter does NOT require a disconnect and reconnect
+cycle anymore.
+09Sep01=======================================================================
+1. Add show/dxstats command
+2. Add show/hfstats command
+3. Add show/vhfstats command
+4. Add show/hftable command
+5. Add show/vhftable command (BE WARNED, the first time you run one of these
+commands it will take some considerable time to complete, thereafter it will
+be a lot faster).
+08Sep01=======================================================================
+1. Update the sgml docs on filtering a bit.
+06Sep01=======================================================================
+1. prevent nodes appearing as users from incoming PC16s
+2. Change ping averaging to be like TCP and become a smoothed RTT.
+3. Make all the Prompts in stat/* like output appear in alphebetical order
+4. Fix problem with 17m spots not appearing in sh/dx
+5. pump up eph dups everytime they re-occur and increase life to 180 secs
+04Sep01=======================================================================
+1. add delete/user command
03Sep01=======================================================================
1. make spot dups look back 5 mins.
2. strip the top off each character in any text field of a Spot for duping.
4. Make PC50s come out in one heap on all channels every 14 mins, instead of
on the 14th minute in the connection time for each channel. This should
reduce (slightly) the dups that are dumped.
+5. Speed up input queue processing (a lot).
+6. make set/isolate and acc/route mutually exclusive (and issue appropriate
+error messages) and fix set/iso on PC18 input.
+7. Improve stat/route_node and stat/route_user for diagnostics.
+8. strip top bit of comments in ann/spots.
+9. fix the announce filtering problem.
+10. Fix the double announcement of node disconnections?
01Sep01=======================================================================
1. Change build number calc (hopefully for the last time)
