+- More doc.
+- Rebuild Scott's new configure

+ occurs.
+15Oct04
+- Fix empty files reported by Marin (zero file_size in dev.c).

+13Oct04
+- Fix syntax error in make_mysql_tables.in pointed out by Scott.
+12Oct04

+ Microsoft's version of localtime_r(). So, now we know that Microsoft
+ programmers do not check return codes!
+- Minor update to web site (new projects page).

+ by Martin, it has negative performance repercussions.
+- Rework getuser() and getgroup() to avoid any possible race condition
+ by returning the value in a buffer rather than from the cached table.

+- Apply Martin's patch that puts back the run pool override
+ code -- dumb me for removing it.
+
+Changes to 1.35.6:
+02Oct04
+- Create patches/README and the patch summary file.
+- Use different share mode when opening files on WinMe/98/95 since
+ SHARE_DELETE is not implemented on those systems.
+- In new syntax Includes, pass *all* files through the acceptance
+ filter so that no error messages will be printed for files that
+ cannot be opened if they are excluded.

+
+Changes to 1.35.5:
+29Sep04
+- Fix Storage overrides in Run directive
+- Fix seg fault in AlertCommand
+- Fix btape "test" and "fill" commands to work with new SD
+ data structures. There are still problems ...
+26Sep04
+- Correct buffer length passed to inet_ntop() in address_conf.c
+- Increase the debug level of a lot of messages to reduce the
+ debugging "noise".
+- Modify how ST_APPEND is handled so that nothing is written
+ to the Volume if it is not set. It is now set only when
+ the Volume label is verified, and released when the volume
+ is released. This required a number of minor but rather
+ critical and fundamental changes.
+- Improve quickly terminating a job in the SD when it errs.
+ More status checking and a few additional checks on
+ job_canceled() and check more error return statuses.
+- Added a number of debug statements (to be removed later) that
+ check the VolCatName for a name.
+- Create a single subroutine that handles terminating writing
+ on a Volume at the end of the volume (or after an error).
+- Continued to add use of the berrno classs for strerror().
+25Sep04
+- Apply conio patches supplied by Peter Eriksson for configure.in
+ conio.h and conio.c to make it work better on Solaris.
+- Make run_grub print manual procedure for installing grub
+- Add extra setsockopt keepalive.

+ tape driver for different OSes.
+24Sep04
+- Apply Peter Eriksson's patch to configure.in fixes finding
+ correct libs on Solaris to link conio -- bug 121
+- Add expected number of files to Verify VolumeToCatalog, and
+ if it does not equal the examined files, fail the job.
+ Fixes bug -- 114
+- Modify the depend section of each Makefile.in to reference $(CXX)
+ instead of $(CC) -- bug 118
+- Remove the word "restore" from the Volumes needed message in
+ dird/bsr.c since the message is used for Restore and Verify.
+- Fix initialization and copying of the storage resource when
+ starting jobs (and in jobq.c when restarting). In some cases
+ jcr->store was not set causing a segfault -- bug 116
+23Sep04
+- More doc.
+- Pass EndFile and EndBlock to SD.
+22Sep04
+- Fixed bscan to close() drive between tapes.
+- Turn on transactions for SQLite and PostgreSQL if
+ multiple connections are turned on.
+- Removed stripping of filename in ua_tree insertion routine.
+- Fix split_path_and_filename() routines to return zero length
+ path and files.
+- Modify update_tables scripts to convert a single blank filename
+ into an empty filename.
+- Incremented the release number because this version requires
+ an update to the database.
+ Use:
+ cd src/cats
+ ./update_bacula_tables
+ to update an existing database.
+- Implemented EndFile and EndBlock in the Media record. This will
+ allow Bacula to know exactly when to stop reading a tape if the
+ stupid tape driver does not give a logical end of tape indication
+ and Bacula writes to the end of the tape getting an I/O error.
+- Added new routines to update the database, and there are
+ new database creation routines to add the two new Media columns.
+- The Media record is updated each time a JobMedia record is created.
+ This keeps the Media record up to date.
+- Undid the code to use automatic type converions to char * in
+ POOL_MEM. This is due to the ugly consequences of essentially
+ destroying the class type nature of the class.
+- Removed all the old mp_char() #define code.
+
+Changes to 1.35.4:
+22Sep04
+- Add additional doc.
+- Implement automatic POOL_MEM type conversion to char *. Thanks
+ to Martin Simmons for the suggestion.
+- Remove some unneeded function overloading -- need removed by
+ automatic type conversion.
+21Sep04
+- Correct segfault in message.c with debug=200 (new code).
+- Fix bug 109 verify with no options prints garbage.
+- Add ioctl(MTIOCGET) call to clrerror_dev() in dev.c. As reported
+ by Frank Kardel, this should clear error conditions on NetBSD.
+20Sep04
+- Modify the rescue script to create mount_drives with
+ the order specified by Philip Nash (mkdir, mount).
+- Tweak install chapter of French manual to add new paragraph
+ from English.
+- Tweak restore tree message to be a bit clearer.
+- Modify watchdog to wakeup after 60 seconds, or wakeup if
+ there is work to do.
+- Modify watchdog stop routine to "ping" watchdog so that it
+ stops immediately rather than after sleep time.
+- Fix btape to use new dcr blocks rather than its own.
+- Fix butil.c to correctly handle Volume names for the
+ utility routines (broke when updating to dcrs).
+11-19Sep04 (vacation)
+- Implement multiple Storage specifications in the Job resource
+ (AND) each containing multiple specifications (OR). Not yet functional.
+ Note, this needs more work as most things now use
+ job->storage[0]->first() rather than looping through devices.
+- Implement "Multiple connections = yes/no" in Catalog record for
+ allowing multiple simultaneous connections to the database.
+- Add new mac.c (Migrate, Archive, Copy) to dird -- not yet implemented.
+- Implement a new POOL_MEM class that automatically allocates
+ and deallocates a pool buffer.
+- Overload a number of utility routines to permit using both
+ POOLMEM and POOL_MEM.
+- Start converting to using POOL_MEM.
+- There were a number of Bacula console ACL checks missing in
+ ua_run.c. It allowed users to run jobs they really should not.
+- Correct a number of dates on the Copyright.
+- Overload pm_strcpy() and pm_strcat() to handle new POOL_MEM
+ class.
+- Overload bash/unbash_spaces to handle new POOL_MEM class.
+- Make a *MASSIVE* pass through the Storage daemon eliminating
+ all use of jcr->VolumeName and jcr->VolCatInfo in favor of
+ dcr->...
+- Eliminate all all redundant arguments from calling sequences
+ in SD. This poses a number of problems due to the old way blocks
+ and records were allocated and released all the time. They are
+ now contained in the dcr. The problem is that old habits die hard
+ and there are still places where everything is not right.
+- Implement "Block positioning = yes/no" in Device resource in SD.
+
Changes to 1.35.3:
09Sep04
- Add "Multiple Connections = yes/no" in catalog record. Only
