+Change many 'unsigned char *' to 'char *' for ODR-related utilties.
+This change makes many type-casts redundant, and, thus simplifies code.
+
+Remove member 'size' from Odr_oct.
+
+Slim down the public part of 'struct odr'. Most elements are not part
+of struct Odr_private.
+
+Add support for SRU 2.0. Since SRU 2.0 is incompatible with earlier
+versions of SRU, yaz-client and zoom C are using SRU 1.2 by default.
+In particular facets are supported in both client - and server side.
+Facets are also supported for Z39.50 and is carried in additionalSearchInfo
+of searchRequest/searchResponse with OID 1.2.840.10003.10.1000.81.5 AKA
+"Facet-1" in oid.csv. The info is defined in facet.asn (which covers
+both request/response). This is what a search handler in the GFS
+will see (regardless of whether operating in SRU mode or Z39.50).
+
+Changes to the srw.h (SRU/Solr) definitions include:
+- New element in Z_SRW_searchRetrieveRequest, queryType (char*) and query
+(char*), which replace union query and query_type (int).  This is because
+SRU 2.0 supports a queryType parameter. This also means that, to carry
+PQF, in SRU we can now use queryType=pqf and query=PQFstring , rather than
+x-pquery=PQFstring (extention parameter). The extension parameter
+is still supported.
+- New element, packing, that has information about SRU
+2.0 recordPacking (not to be confused with SRU 2.0 recordXMLEscaping).
+
+New element in Z_SRW_searchRetrieveResponse, resultCountPrecision.
+
+New element, packing, in Z_SRW_explainRequest.
+
+New elements in Z_SRW_scanRequest, queryType and scanClause.
+These replace query_type and scanClase untion. This is similar to what
+happend to search.
+
+--- 4.2.69 2013/10/01
+
+GFS: log when closing down - at least SIGTERM YAZ-684
+Also change formatting WRT PID logging a bit.
+
+Improve display of MARC records with multi-byte subfield IDs YAZ-695
+In some rare cases subfield identifiers are multi-byte characters.
+This will try to deterime length of those and split accordingly.
+This affects display in line mode as MARCXML/MarcXchange. The encoding
+of ISO2709 is the same.
+
+Change inp argument to const for yaz_read_UTF8_char.
+
+yaz-marcdump: fix leaks for MARCXML parsing. YAZ-694
+
+MARCXML parsing: avoid skipping 1st field if no leader. YAZ-693
+
+Better check of marc leader info YAZ-691
+Problem is that some systems generate MARCXML/MarcXchange with
+funny headers. These will not work if encoded as ISO2709.
+Some tests produce new output, due to updated warning messages
+
+cql2pqf: allow PQF queries from stdin (because CQL is also allowed)
+
+yaz-client: display MAB records YAZ-689.
+Thanks for Heiko Jansen for this patch.
+
+New utility z_get_HTTP_Response_server which allows both HTTP server name
+and HTTP server URL to be given in response.
+
+Debian: do not depend on obs tcl8.3.
+
+Debian: do not depend on obs libicu36-dev.
+
+--- 4.2.68 2013/09/23 
+
+GFS: pass additionalSearchInfo to search memeber search_input if
+given. Otherwise pass otherInfo. Request for facets and other search
+related things will be passed there in future versions of YAZ.
+
+New ZOOM setting, authenticationMode, which allows authentication
+paramters to be encoded in the URL rather than via HTTP Basic auth.
+YAZ-686
+
+rpn2solr: fix nested AND/OR handling. YAZ-685
+
+Add comparison routines for some Z-types, such as NamePlusRecord,
+RPNQuery, Query, RecordComposition and OtherInformation.
+
+--- 4.2.67 2013/09/19 
+
+Don't decode MAB as MARC. Just like we don't attempt to decode
+HTML/XML as MARC. Fixes MAB display problem that was introduced in 4.2.64.
+
+CCL: allow quoted terms for date ranges. YAZ-681
+
+Introduce ccl_parser_qual_search. This function makes old function
+ccl_qual_search, from YAZ 2, available again.
+
+Add yaz_facet_list_to_wrbuf. YAZ-683
+
+--- 4.2.66 2013/09/11
+
+ZOOM: fix record handling for Solr. ZOOM_record_get would return 0, if
+schema was given for search. YAZ-675
+
+Add Solr date range searches. YAZ-621
+
+--- 4.2.65 2013/08/22
+
+ZOOM: another fix for record caching (introduced in YAZ 4.2.64).
+
+--- 4.2.64 2013/08/21 (Broken WRT ZOOM C, do not use)
+
+ISO2709/MARC parse most octet aligned records; not just those that
+are known to be ISO2709/MARC. This makes ZOOM and yaz-client
+MARC parse more records instead of just dumping as is. YAZ-670
+
+ZOOM: proper caching for variations of record schema. YAZ-671
+
+Solr: Check for enging / and perhaps commands (select/term) YAZ-651
+
+--- 4.2.63 2013/07/17
+
+Add yaz_strcmp_null
+
+--- 4.2.62 2013/07/11
+
+New utility z_get_HTTP_Response_details - an extended version of
+z_get_HTTP_Response.
+
+New utility yaz_url_get_error which returns error message of last
+failed yaz_url_exec call.
+
+yaz-url and url functions: allow max HTTP redirects to be controlled.
+
+New functions yaz_file_glob2, yaz_xml_include_glob.
+These functions takes a flags parameter, which, for now only controls
+whether to fail inclusion of a non-existing file (without glob
+pattern) - flags YAZ_FILE_GLOB_FAIL_NOTEXIST.
+
+--- 4.2.61 2013/06/20
+
+For MARC XML parsing, allow record without leader. A fake/default leader
+is inserted and a warning is tagged with the record.
+
+ICU: fix leak in in icu_iter_get_org_info.
+
+--- 4.2.60 2013/06/14
+
+ICU: fix bug in icu_iter_get_org_info (un-init variable).
+
+--- 4.2.59 2013/06/11
+
+Implement z_HTTP_header_remove.
+
+--- 4.2.58 2013/06/11
+
+ICU: Disallow 0 ptrs for some ICU string utilities.
+
+ICU: new utilities icu_iter_get_org_info and icu_chain_get_org_info:
+returns original tokens (before normalization).
+
+CCL: avoid z39.58/regex truncation when not needed. Apply only the
+conversion of those masks, when absolutely necessary.
+
+CCL: configurable masking character - @mask. Default masking character
+is # for CCL.
+
+HTTP encoding: remove Transfer-Encoding header. YAZ uses content_len and
+full response anyway, so a Transfer-Encoding header will obstruct the
+response.
+
+--- 4.2.57 2013/05/15
+
+COMSTACK: @ uses AF_UNSPEC . But we prefer AF_INET6 over others when
+picking a socket. Problem is that some systems has IPV6 support, but
+we can't create sockets for them, so we pick AF_UNSPEC first.
+
+HTTP encode. Proper Content-Length YAZ-660. For yaz_encode_http_response
+use content_len to determine resulting Content-Length in HTTP response
+and NOT Content-Length supplied in headers by user.
+
+z_HTTP_header_add_basic_auth uses z_HTTP_header_set rather than
+z_HTTP_header_add, to avoid having two Authorization headers by mistake.
+
+Fix problem with HTTP decoding. For HTTP 1XX, 204, 304 assume no
+content-length.
+
+Fix yaz_base64decode to use proper signed. Problem occurred on platforms
+with big endian and unsigned char (by default).
+
+--- 4.2.56 2013/04/26
+
+Fix yaz-client connect (crash in 4.2.55).
+
+--- 4.2.55 2013/04/26
+
+Fix proxy/host problem for ZOOM that could occur if unix sockets
+was in use.
+
+New Debian package libyaz4-dbg.
+
+Fix problem with cs_close hang/wait in SSL mode. Invoke gnutls_bye
+differently in tcpip_close.
