               Technical notes on version 2.3
 
 General:

+03Dec07
+kes  This patch fixes bcopy so that it produces correct Volumes.
+     It fixes bug #1022.
+kes  This patch eliminates spurious output to the console during a VerifyVolume
+     job that contains encrypted data. It fixes bug #1024.
+02Dec07
+kes  This patch prevents the 'status dir' command from trying to use a scratch
+     volume and possibly moving it from one pool to another.  This patch fixes
+     bug #1019.
+01Dec07
+kes  Add new include to cats/postgresql.c suggested by Marc Cousins so
+     that it compiles correctly with pgre version 8.3.
+30Nov07
+kes  Fix --archivedir addition to configure. Replace it with
+     --with-archivedir in configure.in  This fixes the regression       
+     test builds.
+kes  This patch fixes bug #1012 where the job is canceled because
+      of Max Run Time exceeded when the job has not yet started.
+29Nov07
+ebl  Apply Richard Mortimer patch that fixes #1016 when there are more than 
+     one 'part' to write.  Instead of each part being stored on disk, 
+     written to DVD, then deleted from disk, all parts are written to disk,
+     and only the last is written and deleted from disk.
+kes  This patch fixes the status command to include the formating string for
+     JS_AttrInsterting.  It fixes bug #1021.
+kes  This patch should fix the Mac OS X build problem on the latest
+     Darwin, where sys/types.h was not included correctly (apparently
+     due to a change in the Mac headers).  The solution was to explicitly
+     ensure that it is defined for the ./configure.
+     This patch also has a rebuild of configure that includes the Debian
+     qt4 patch to check for qmake-qt4. This patch fixes bug #1020.
+kes  This patch should ensure that queued messages to the console are
+     displayed as soon as possible.  It should fix bug 1007, but has been
+     reported not to work.
+14Nov07
+kes  This patch fixes the infinite loop when trying to increase the
+     maximum number of volumes in a Pool during the add command.
+     This patch fixes bug #1008. 
+
+Release Version 2.2.6
+09Nov07
+db   Remove extra data on estimate command in joblist for bat.
+04Nov07
+kes  Cleanup of code in SD that sets the LastWritten date. This doesn't 
+     really change anything, but is the beginning of doing it *right*.
+     To do it completely right the LastWritten date must be passed to
+     the SD, but it is not yet done.
+kes  Minor tweaks to some bat restore SQL.
+kes  This patch fixes bug #1003 where putting the message output from
+     a Verify job into the catalog results in a recursive loop.  The problem
+     seems to show up only with postgresql (to be verified).
+kes  Correct %x to %p in postgresql debug statement.
+02Nov07
+kes  Fix bug #942 where lots of emails where generated when the heartbeat
+     interval was low and Bacula wanted a different tape from the one in
+     the drive.
+25Oct07
+ebl  Add new SD despooling attributes and Dir inserting attributes 
+     job status codes in the catalog (Status table).
+24Oct07
+ebl  Use qmake-qt4 instead of qmake when available (debian system).
+22Oct07
+kes  Add a security warning to src/cats/make_catalog_backup.in indicating
+     that passing the password via the command line (arg 3) is insecure.
+     This responds to bug #990 (it doesn't fix it).

+kes  Set default debug_level to zero. This corrects bugs #991 and #993. 
+kes  Fix a crash in bat when it cannot connect to the Director for example
+     if the Director is not running.
+kes  Remove redundant INDEX (JobId) from File table in the trunk.
+     This fixes bug #992.
