+Added SRU-GET and SRU-POST support for ZOOM C. Option "sru" specifies
+which mode to use; one of "post", "get" or "soap" (SRW, default).
+
+Fixed bug in character set conversion yaz_iconv. Some three byte UTF-8
+sequences where not read correctly. Fix by Rustam Usmanov.
+
+Updates to win/makefile which makes things compile happily with VS C 2005.
+
+--- 2.1.12 2006/02/01 
+
+Fixed bug in yaz_oi_update which used incorrect value for categoryValue.
+
+In ZOOM socket code, use select instead of poll on MacOSX.
+
+ZOOM-C now support client-side compilation of CQL into RPN that is
+sent to the server, enabling CQL to be used against all Z39.50
+servers.  Use ZOOM_query_cql2rpn() to set the compiled CQL into a
+ZOOM_query object, and submit it using ZOOM_connection_search().
+The CQL-to-RPN translation uses a configuration file, the name of
+which must be specified in the Connection's "cqlfile" option.
+
+ZOOM-C also support CQL scanning, via the new ZOOM_connection_scan1()
+function, which takes as its start-term parameter a ZOOM_query object
+(which may have had either CQL or RPN set into it).

 Added ZiNG Update Support. New codecs are defined in srw.h. Extended the
 GFS to support this as well. Backend handler, bend_srw_update, does the
 update work. Code contributed by Ko van der Sloot.

+Add ZOOM_connection_option_getl() and ZOOM_options_getl(),
+corresponding to the existing *_setl() function.  These allow option
+values containing arbitrary valuues.
+
+Add ZOOM_resultset_sort1(), which should ALWAYS be used in place of
+ZOOM_resultset_sort() in new applications.  Its behaviour is identical
+except that it returns an indicator of whether or not the sort
+criterion was accepted (0 for OK, -1 for invalid).
