0.1.8B	27 Nov 1995
	Cleaned up the ./tmp dir left overs from FBB forwarding a little
	 more tidier now.
	Opps, fixed 'Reject' it now works with MBL forwarding.
	More various axl (to 1.6) improvements and bug fixes.
	Added support for AA4RE's Extended Responses, [XXX-YYY-...R...].
	Added support for my interpretation of FBBs undocumented 'FS E'
	 response.
	Fixed missing logging of defer responses from peers under FBB
	 protocol.
	Added ConnectT1 and ConnectMTU for entries in the ./etc/Systems
	 file, should work for Kernel AX25 and NetRom forwarding.
	Added info on Cnews->LBBS and Sendmail->LBBS gatewaying, also the
	 perl version of my original script.  This had been kept out of LBBS
	 up until now as I considered it too dangerous for general use!  But
	 for now the perl script(s) mimic what LBBSs bbs-spool (bbs) prog
	 will be able to do in the end.
	Added 7plus catcher perl script(s) and rline statisical scripts.
	Added support for modem(s).  ConnectProto = MODEM, ConnectPort =
	 /dev/cuaX, it might work, completely untested!
	Added support for ax25tmp.  The Linux node can now also list BBS
	 forwarding sessions in progress.
	Added contrib dir with some IACO scripts, for your BBS own map!
	Added /ACK and (experimental) /TRACK scripts.

0.1.7B	6 Jun 1995
	Works with AX.25 0.28b, supports kernel NETROM, axl also updated.
	Opps, forgot to remove the ID from the history db when jobs are
	 blacklisted to be tried later on.
	If piping to 'spnews' ever failed, then when the item goes to Rnews
	 it would loose the body of the message in the process.  Not now..
	Your own R: line was made up, one month out of date.
	Upon Rx'ing FQ with the FBB protocol it now waits Timeout1 before
	 disconnecting from our end.
	Timeout1 and Timeout2 supported, prompt timeout and command timeout.
	Added the '-V' option to most binaries, so version information can
	 be otained for each.
	Added AcceptBrokenProposalsWithNullTo to ./etc/Config, see the
	 information in there.
	Added AcceptBrokenFbbProtocolWithNullSubject to ./etc/Config, see
	 the information in there.

* NOTE: The ConnectProto's has changed to reflect the new kernel changes.


0.1.6B  25 Apr 1995
	SIGPIPE from Filters cleaned up, if the filter does not want to read
	 the data it's not LBBS's business.  Those who have experienced LBBS
	 not processing items over 4Kb (a pipe full of data) should really
	 have examined the filters setup to start with :-).
	Opps, forgot to BlackList items if the item locking fails.
	The bbs history database entries should look more like what the
	 items were locally gated as.
	BulletinLog and PersonalLog are now implemented.
	Added more information and examples to default config files.
	A public domain piece of source wildmat.c has replaced the existing
	 globbing routines
	Added ./Credits files to archive.
	Swap file now has flags to distinguish re-writes between Personal and
	 Bulletins etc...  It also allows you to re-write the message type,
	 e.g. from being an SP to an SB.  (to fix that stupid SP SYSOP prob)
	Fixed the bbsrx '-s' option, if called by root the peer system name
	 can be overridden, so there is no longer the need for *real* accounts
	 for each neighbour.
	Improved error reporting around swapping (./etc/Swap).
	Does not crash now if you specify an illegal ConnectProto.
	Various axl improvements and bug fixes.

* NOTE: The 'Swap' config file has changed it's format, please make sure you
	reformat your own when upgrading.


0.1.5B	16 Apr 1995
	Opps, Rline list not setup before going to Filters, and so return
	 address always ends up being local.
	Added 'AcceptDieBoxRlines' to Config.
	I've hopefully now fixed MBL reverse forwarding, bbstx will offer
	 all it has, then it will F> and wait for response.  Respond to any
	 items offered back then disconnect.  Can I offer some more once the
	 remote system sends its '*** Done' if I have some?
	Added script/doexpire, bin/aux/expire.  To start tidying up the
	 history file.
 	Removed (un-intended) case-sensitivity to 1st field of 'Feeds' and
	 'Hroute', also To, From and At fields of 'Filters' plus Id field in
	 'Reject'.
	Moved the util 'wp' into ./bin/tools/.
	Added Install.sh, untested as of this time, also README.Upgrade.
	Fixed the cause of some corrupted entries in the history file, this
	 will not have shown itself in previous versions of LBBS as a
	 problem but with the new expire utility added it was found.
	Improved error reporting around filter processing (./etc/Filters).

* NOTE:	THE 'histroy' DATABASE FILE MIGHT HAVE CORRUPTED ENTRIES FROM
         EARLIAR VERSIONS, PLEASE DESTROY YOUR OLD .dir AND .pag FILES.
         YOU WILL SUFFER LITTLE CONSEQUENCE AT THIS EARLY STAGE IN
         DEVELOPMENT.


0.1.4B	04 Apr 1995
	The history and wp database files, now actually check the 'VERSION'
	 entry.  Unless identical to that which the application supports it
	 will not open it.  It will log this fact.
	The Filter mechanism is finally finished and there is even a sample,
	 script based 'reqdir'.  I've also included tpk-beacon which can now
	 send out TPK UI beacons to users, both written as examples of
	 what the filter mech can/could do.
 	Added to archive, script stubs for servers, bin/tpk-beacon,
	 etc/Filters, spool/localid/seq.
	Moved 'axl' into archive, I didn't reliase it didn't go out with
	 previous releases.
	
	
	
* NOTE:	THE 'histroy' DATABASE FILE FORMAT HAS CHANGED, PLEASE DESTROY YOUR
	 OLD .dir AND .pag FILES.  YOU WILL SUFFER LITTLE CONSEQUENCE AT
	 THIS EARLY STAGE IN DEVELOPMENT.


0.1.3B	28 Mar 1995
	Made (most) of the Netnews and Mail header lines configurable
	 (those lines created when articles are gatewayed).
	'Gateway' config file now comments with ';' and not '#'.
	'MGateway' config file added and supported.


0.1.2B	27 Mar 1995
	The 'LBBS-crontab' file added to archive.
	The './scripts' dir added to archive, some initial housekeeping
	 scripts are within it.  See README in there.
	Locking as each item is processed from the incoming spool.
	Clean ups of some left over temp files, when there was a read/write
	 error.
	MinSpaceFree param added, this will defer (FBB) or disconnect (MBL)
	 if space is short on the system, tut tut.


0.1.1B	24 Mar 1995
	This 'History' file added to archive.
	If the 'Hroute' file had no entry for MySystemHA it wouldn't route
	 it.  A simple addition will now automatically compare the AT to
	 MySystemHA if no match at all is found in 'Hroute'.  This should be
	 the assumed behavior if the 'Hroute' file does not exist, as
	 usually you have a '*' route at the bottom so this WILL return a
	 match.
	Fixed usage of inject.immed flag to process everything as soon
	 as it comes in.
	Fixed <CR> to <NL> conversion of data piped into bbs-inject when
	 the inject.immed flag is present.
	Added blacklisting of jobs in incoming spool dir.
        A spurious free() call removed from rnews.c, an int var was catching
	 cwap off the stack (being altered before being assigned, = 0)
         in rline.c.


0.1.0B	06 Mar 1995
	=-= FEATURES =-=
	MBL, FBB batching, FBB compressed, FBB type 1 compressed
	 forwarding with restart facility implemented, deferring, and
	 rejection.
	Able to use various Linux transport mechanism including TCP kernel,
	 AX.25 kernel (tested on AX.25 v0.25/v0.27), WAMPES
	 N/ROM, AX25 or TCP.
	Simple dialer, to allow connections through AX.25 or N/ROM nodes.
	White Pages
	Transient handling of type A (ACK messages), (need to whip up a quick
	 filter prog to handle them correctly at the end point).
 	SMTP/NNTP<>BBS gatewaying implemented heavily to the extent that the
	 user front end will be accessing the netnews spool to retrieve
	 articles.  Hence the is no internal spooling mechanism, but enough
	 indexing to make the user front end simple to put in later, and fool
	 them info thinking it's a *normal* BBS.
	Field swapping (like SWAPP.SYS in FBB).
	Mutiuser/connect (Like the OS :-) there is no real limit to the number
	 except that of in OS regarding system resources.


0.0.0	30 Jan 1995
	Work on LBBS commenced.
