This release represents only a small change in comparison to version 2.0.12.
Many of the utilities have not changed at all, most of the changes are
concentrated in a relatively small number of utilities. Here is a list of
the changes I have made to the package since 2.0.12:

1. A new set of config files supplied by Tomi OH2BNS, Hessu OH7LZB
   and Joni OH2NJR. The default files installed are Tomi's with Hessu's and
   Joni's available to view, they represent some very interesting systems.

2. Cleared up some funnies with call's handling of the Enter key.

3. A further fix to netromd to remove core dumps.

4. Moved the directories within the source code around a bit, the locations
   of the installed files has not changed.

5. New mheard program and mheardd daemon to collect its information.

6. Node has been updated to use the new mheard facilities in (5) above.

7. Added new function to libax25 to convert a program into a daemon, called
   daemon_start. This has been added to ax25d, axattach, beacon, mheardd,
   mkiss, netromd, rip98d, rxecho.

8. Logging to the system log file added to beacon, mheardd, mkiss, netromd,
   rip98d and rxecho.

9. The -l option in netromd is now the -q option.

10. Netromd has a new option -p to set the delay between individual routing
    packets, the default is five seconds.

11. Mheardd validates incoming callsigns using a new function from libax25.

--

12. New version of axspawn from Joerg Reuter.

13. Listen now does tracing of Rose packets. The facilities on Call Requests
    are only dumped as Hex at the moment.

14. Fix duplication of entries in mheardd.

15. Added -f (for "flush") to mheardd to allow for the deletion of
    existing heard entries at startup.

--

16. New program kissnetd.

17. Split KISS support into kiss directory from ax25.

--

18. Some minor adjustments to bring this distribution in line with
    the 2.1.9b distribution.

19. Added AX.25 routing daemon from Joerg Reuter

20. Added callsign to to corner of call program. patch from Claudio, IW0FBB.

21. Swapped the transmit and receive windows in call TALKMODE, and made
    TALKMODE the default. (If you don't like it, complain).

22. Modified rxecho to try all ports before giving up on delivering data with
    patch from Hessu, OH7LZB.

23. Re-added support for mixed case node mnemonics. The '-c' command line
    argument forces strict Software 2000 compliance and will cause
    netromd to ignore mixed case node mnemonics. patches from Richard Adams
    and Jonathon Naylor.

24. Command line parsing in kissparms has changed. The -exit option is now
    -x.

25. Added Jonathons user_call programs, you can call them from either the
    'node' or 'ax25d' programs.

26. Added Hessu's color patches to listen. If any of you running
    linux with a monochrome card experience any difficulty with this, please
    let me know.

27. Fixed Rose and NetRom dump problems from listen - patches from Craig Small
    and Jonathon Naylor

28. Fixed user_call Makefile install problem - patch from Johnie Stafford.

29. Configuration script checks kernel version and that kernel is installed
    and configured.

30. Added beacon 'one-shot' facility. Patch from David Brooke, G6GZH.
