+Bug in Explain DatabaseInfo module fixed.
+
+Some '\r' snuck into one or two of the config tables. Curse on Windows.

+Occasional malloc() of 0 bytes fixed in d1_espec.c.

+
+The shift to v1.0 signals that we now consider the *core* functionality
+of YAZ reasonably stable (the core being more or less equivalent to
+Z39.50-1992). Some of the really nifty v3 stuff is still not heavily
+tested (Explain not at all - though that will happen soonish).
+
+Minor changes to code to support Windows port.
+
+Various minor changes after we're getting to use GRS-1 & co. more.
+
+Added Espec-1 format.
+
+Added VisibleString field body type to GRS-1. It is illegal acc. to my copy
+of the protocol and it cannot be selected when encoding (maps into 'string'
+when decoding). Needed to talk to some servers.
+
+Demo client can request simple element set names.
+
+Added Diagnostic Format encoders/decoders.
+
+Added simple Close handling to frontend server (no hooks for resource
+reporting yet), and demonstration client.
+
+Added cs_addrstr() command to COMSTACK to retrieve peer hostname/address.

Fixed bug in the frontend-server. The numberOfRecordsReturned field was
handled incorrectly when records were requested in the searchResponse. This
will only affect you if you use the frontend-server.
-Added Explain encoders/decoders to the service-level API. Untested.
-
Added GRS-1 encoders/decoders to the service-level API. Lightly tested.
Test-client will ask for and print GRS1. Ztest will return dummy records
on request.
+Added Explain encoders/decoders to the service-level API. Untested.
+
Added Extended Services: Item Order encoders and decoders to the Service-
-level API. Untested. Would anyone be willing to fax or mail the pertinent
-bits of the ILL protocol to us?
+level API. Untested. We could use a recent copy of the pertinent bits
+of the ILL protocol to add those bits.
+
+Added diagnostic format 1 encoders/decoders to the service-level API.
+Untested.
Moved pretty-printing of structure-wrappers ({..}) from odr_seq.c to
odr_cons.c, which causes a more correct output.
Fixed handling of searchRequest in frontend server. NextResultSetPosition
was always set to 0 when no records were requested in the searchRequest.
-* Added better external-handling. This shouldn't harm old code that *encodes*
-externals. It can break code that looks for a 'single-ASN1-type'
-representation, since those types that are known are now decoded
-immediately. Look at the SUTRS sample code in seshigh.c and client.c.
-Documentation updated.

-Better, but backwards-compatible handling of records in bend_fetchresponse.
-Length -1 marks structured record, type is deduced from format field.

Fairly quick maintenance release to add SUTRS support.
