+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.
+3. Added show/program command so you can see where it is loading your .pm files
+from.
+4. Added pc26/27 replies to locally connected cluster's merge (pc25) requests
+5. Added spotters DXCC and original cluster to Spot data files.
+23Dec98========================================================================
+1. Reindented various things
+2. Added missing $main::mycall on the end of outgoing PC11s (!)
+3. Check that PC16/17 node calls really are nodes (AFAIAC).
+22Dec98========================================================================
+1. Added brackets round callsign if not here for prompt
+2. Added Iain's set/password routine
+3. Fixed sh/dx problems (the xemacs indent region messed Spot.pm up!)
+4. Issued 1.15
+21Dec98============= late! ====================================================
+1. fixed problem with missing DXDebug in DXProt.
+2. Fixed DXDebug so that it actually works as advertised with and without
+trailing \n.
+3. Added deduping of WWV spots as well (at for date,time,sfi,k and i) dups
+4. Replaced the 0 in "02-Dec-1998" with ' ' so it reads " 2-Dec-1998", it seems
+hard to credit it but some 'programs' out there that connect to clusters have
+problems with the leading '0'!
+5. In the same vain, included a strictly AK1A compatible sh/heading, apparently
+this is necessary for the same reason as 4.
+6. Started contrib tree stored the old show/heading in contrib/g0rdi/show.
+7. Because I now correctly dedupe spots and wwv (there's a hostage to fortune..)
+I have added a merge command.
+21Dec98========================================================================
+1. Added "issue" to the client program for 'login' connections
+2. Added more docs for client program.
+3. Fixed problem introduced in 1.12 where a connect locally with a callsign of
+someone connected remotely would stop the cluster.
+4. issue release 1.13
+20Dec98========================================================================
+1. Removed all the warnings I get with perl -w (at least for just starting the
+cluster and running a few commands).
+2. Added per node hop control.
+3. Added some docs on how to use it and isolation
+4. Made talk command more intelligent in that if the user isn't seen and the
+user's last node is visible it tries the talk anyway.
+19Dec98========================================================================
+1. Fixed problems with sh/rcmd (talk/ann/log) with a callsign as argument and
+also made what G0RDI wanted work as well!
+2. Added isolate flag to allow isolation of different networks at a gateway.
+3. Changed make Makefile.PL to perl Makefile.PL in instructions
+4. Copied latest instructions to html directory
+5. Had another attempt at making clients disconnect without hanging everytime.
+6. Changed msg queuing semantics so that the system routes on exact callsign.
+7. Changed the protocol version so that it increments with the DXSpider version.
+14Dec98========================================================================
+1. Made the telnet thing work a bit better. It still will not work reliably to
+a real telnetd on port 23.
+2. Allowed network logins on client by specifying login instead of call.
+3. made msg handling more robust (PC30 with unknown streams cause PC42), queueing
+is only done on channels that are in state 'normal'.
+4. Added pc command which takes a callsign and some text and sends it without
+mods to the callsign, useful for sending manual PC protocol to unstick things.
+Also for sending anonymous messages to online users.
+5. Stopped duplicate messages being stored (it receives them and then bins them)
+6. Implemented PC49 delete/full from outside (kill full on the inside)
+7. Implemented the client command in connect scripts so that you can have
+different scripts for the same callsign.
+8. Added sh/wwv command
+13Dec98========================================================================
+1. Fixed VS6 lat/long in prefix_data and wpxloc.raw
+2. Sorted out last in times for remote users
+3. editted and substitued G0RDI's version of the install instructions over
+mine in spider/html
+4. fixed telnet connections
+5. added connect instructions to html tree.
+6. Added some more help
+7. Upissued version
+12Dec98========================================================================
+1. Incorporated sh/st, (un)set/lockout, forward/opername from Iain G0RDI
+2. Added group handling with (un)set/group, show/group. This allows arbitrary
+groups to be formed (for ann/<group> for example) and is also used to 'filter'
+spots, announces, wwvs etc into groups of cluster nodes (useful for creating
+disjoint cluster networks)
+3. **** CHANGE mylongtitude to mylongitude in DXVars.pm ****
+4. Altered QRA locator routines so they work correctly!
+5. Fixed all commands that had the wrong mylat(itude) and mylong(itude) names
+in.
+07Dec98========================================================================
+1. Added set/name, set/qra, set/location, set/qth, set/homenode, set/bbs,
+set/email
+2. changed the Msg socket close to a shutdown (hopefully more reliable), this
+should stop clients hanging on exit.
+3. Added Alias support for help
+4. Added lltos and stoll routines to DXBearing
+5. Added auto prompting for name, qth, location and homenode if any of these
+aren't known.
+06Dec98========================================================================
+1. Fixed DXBearing::is_qra so that it correctly detects full QRA locators
+2. Added sh/qra for doing locator distances and bearings
+3. Added some stuff to Notes.txt on hints for command writers
+4. Changed help system to use just one file per language
+5. Started adding more help
+6. Fixed 24Mhz band limits
+7. Added apropos command and lots of new help text
+05Dec98========================================================================
+1. Added sh/heading and QRA locator calculation stuff
04Dec98========================================================================
1. Started Changes file
2. Added load/cmd_cache.pl to clear cmd cache shortcuts (use this if cluster.pl
