+Changed license of CCL module to 'Revised BSD'. After consultation with
+remaining members of the original EUROPAGATE consortium, we are re-issuing
+the CCL module without a separate license. The software was developed by
+Index Data as part of a research project. The special license was included
+to help feed usage information back to the project consortium to support
+project evaluation. At this time, the project consortium has long-since
+disbanded, and the majority of the original principals have retired. At the
+same time, we have significantly modified the software during the following
+years, to the point where very practically no original code remains. To
+simplify re-use of the software, we have contacted those members of the
+consortium who could be reached, and agreed to re-issue the module as a
+proper part of the YAZ package.

+ziffy uses YAZ' options rather than getopt; getopt is unavailable on

 Added yaz_poll which is a wrapper for select/poll. When poll is available
 and non-buggy, it is used, by yaz_poll . This allows more than 1024
 sockets to be in use.
 
-Added ICU chain component - which used to be part of Pazpar2.
+Added ICU wrapper library which exposes ICU http://www.icu-project.org/
+functionality through an XML based configuration (ICU chain). This system
+is useful for search facilities such as Pazpar2 and Zebra that needs to
+perform tokenization of indexed material. The ICU code in a separate
+library libyaz3_icu.a.
 
 Added HTTP tunnel facility for COMSTACK, bug #1752.
 This is a facility that allows a Web proxy, such as squid, to tunnel
