+23May99=======================================================================
+1. tried to change connection to raw mode for cluster connections
+2. sh/c and sh/u are now sorted in alphabetical order
+3. Limited the number of queued dx spots when composing messages to 20 (the 
+oldest one is lost for every one added above 20).
+4. Added generalised shell globbing everywhere I think it is useful, including
+sh/dx, dir
+5. Made dir more friendly and give more info, you can do > < and a number now.
+22May99=======================================================================
+1. added check for -1 from Date::Parse and return undef for out of range dates
+2. added show/files and type commands
+21May99=======================================================================
+1. made set/nodx work again.
+2. made dx stuff queue nicely again when sending messages.
+18May99=======================================================================
+1. Added announce dup checking.
+2. Added system announce filtering.
+08May99=======================================================================
+1. Added a bit more checking to the rcmd thing to make more sure that this
+rcmd isn't coming from an imposter. Not possible to prevent everything 
+ofcourse, just make it a bit harder.
+2. altered set/lockout and set/privilege so that they can't executed remotely.
+3. Added some code to reject rubbish (with invalid binary characters) protocol
+or user lines as input.
+4. prevented PC command being executed remotely :-)
+05May99=======================================================================
+1. change the connection overlap from an abort to a disconnect.
+02May99=======================================================================
+1. Added the mechanism for doing user spot filtering for spots in the cluster 
+(no user control just yet - but sysops can do it).
+2. Fixed problem with nodes sending out the node lists of isolated nodes.
+30Apr99=======================================================================
+1. Try to make it even more AK1A friendly by putting the node list out in the
+'correct' order.
+2. added code so that local users and commands go to all connected nodes 
+INCLUDING the isolated ones.
+26Apr99=======================================================================
+1. added set/user command as a hack, please use this with care, there is
+very little checking.
+2. added export_opernam.pl which is a basic reader of AK1A opernam.dat files
+to stdout
+25Apr99=======================================================================
+1. Fixed problem with filtered spots not coming out.
+2. Added the possibility of filtering on channel callsign
+20Apr99=======================================================================
+1. altered order of undefing and closing of user file in an attempt to make 
+corruptions/missing users less likely.
+2. made messages that are addressed to the node call appear to the alias call
+3. check dates much more rigourously.
+4. ignore SIGTERM and SIGINT during shutdown of the cluster
+15Mar99=======================================================================
+1. added $actiondata to filter line to allow per action data such as no of hops
+2. fixed a silly problem in talk for non-existant callsigns
+3. Added sysop command
+02Mar99========================================================================
+1. Changed DXUser so that it uses a homemade import/export hash routine 
+2. DXUser now uses a DB_BTREE file
+3. Added export_users.pl, import_users.pl and convert_users.pl
+25Feb99========================================================================
+1. added NL language stuff.
+2. added set/language
+21Feb99========================================================================
+1. Allowed multiple 'on <freq>' for show/dx
+2. Made sure the 'on 20m/ssb' thing worked (also 'on hf/cw').
+3. first cut of the Filtering code, no user commands yet but the file
+format is defined and manually added filters should work for spots
+17Feb99========================================================================
+1. added export_user.pl to export user files (for interest and safety)
+2. changed DXUser::init to allow O_RDONLY access which may limit the number
+of coredumps G0RDI seems to get.
+15Feb99========================================================================
+1. Added msg forwarding code which uses $main::root/msg/forward.pl.
+14Feb99========================================================================
+1. Changed A & K in WWV to be the other way around (I am told by G3IOR that
+this will mean that we won't have pole to pole aurora nor all the power lines
+overloading everywhere as well as a result of having values of K > 10).
+2. allow the '~' character in message bodies.
+3. Moved $main::data/badmsg.pl to $main::root/msg/badmsg.pl.
+11Feb99========================================================================
+1. Fixed a problem with isolated nodes' configurations being sent on sending 
+local configs to new connections.
+08Feb99========================================================================
+1. added a $SIG{ALRM} in the client to actually catch the alarm when it goes 
+off which means that the netrom/ax25 call programs terminate properly (and not
+loop as fast as their little legs can paddle, soaking up CPU time).
+2. Implemented read receipts as an especial request from G4PDQ.
+3. Fiddled with DXUser a bit to see whether I can stop it core dumping on new
+users in PC16s on G0RDI's machine.
+4. Added E4 (Palestine) to Prefix data.
+30Jan99========================================================================
+1. Some of the dates we get can cause crashes, tried to make it more robust (oh
+and Y2K compliant)
+2. PC16 seem to come in with missing callsigns from somewhere
+3. added $main::data/baddx.pl which prevents callsigns that are in the list being
+a) forwarded b) stored and c) (except for the originator, if local) being
+displayed locally.
+4. added $main::data/badmsg.pl which deletes any messages whose TO address is
+in this list (this is largely for european sensibilities). 
 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
