-Crossfire+ Server ChangeLog
+Crossfire TRT Server, Maps and Archetypes ChangeLog
 
 2.1
-	- started a Changes file, please use.
+	- complete rewrite of town_portal: it now creates a portal
+          to the "nearest" town only, travel is only possible
+          to the town and back, anybody can use it (also removes
+          one of the remaining syncpoints in the server).
+	- complete rewrite of the range/attack skill slot system:
+          there are now two slots, one for combat, one for ranged
+          attacks.
+        - introduce the concept of a current weapon (either a ranged
+          or a combat weapon/skill/tool) and switch between them as
+          needed.
+        - rewrite bow code so bows get more useful: apply damage,
+          attacktype and other stats to the arrows and treat
+          bows as weapons. also rebalance the missile weapons skill
+          so its damage increases with level.
+        - rewrite the complete player speed logic: weapon_speed now
+          works as documented and there are no unnatural speed boosts.
+        - implement a utility - cfutil - that simplifies arch and map
+          installation, replacing the old collect scripts and
+          simplying deployment by scaling and cutting faces as required.
+        - simplify the map protocol extensively by taking advantage
+          of missing bigfaces, speeding up map generation immensely.
+        - implement inherit keyword allowing archetypes to inherit from
+          other archetypes.
+        - rationalise archetype, region and treasurelist file format
+          into a single file format and make them reloadable asynchronously.
+        - make the worldmap, facedata (smoothing, faces, magicmap)
+          reloadable at runtime.
+	- implement 64x64 faceset support.
+        - implement fxixsx protocol that saves
+          a lot of bandwidth over the old image/face/smooth packets
+          and allows images > packetsize, incremental and background
+          transfers.
+        - implement a bandwidth-saving smoothing protocol that works
+          on a face basis as opposed to a mapspace basis.
+        - the server can now rate-limit image uploads to not exceed
+          a certain (client-configurable) speed while guarenteeing full
+          freedom of movement.
+        - implement new ex command to request item descriptions.
+        - implement new msg command for in-game messages with meta
+          information (using xml).
+        - enforce utf-8 for all text messages.
+	- added micropather (not used yet).
+        - many, many bugfixes.

+2.0  Tue Mar  6 15:22:53 CET 2007
 	- make coroapi accessible to cf+.
 	- moved map handling logic completely to perl
 	- per player maps are now marked in the map
-	- maps are saved completely differently now
+	- maps are saved completely differently now,
+          and much more often.
 	- rewrote map header parser and writer
+	- maps and players are now (in the average case) loaded
+          and saved completely asynchronously, I/O contention will no
+          longer freeze the server.
+	- players and maps can be loaded anytime, without the player
+          being logged in.
 	- automatically generate method interfaces for perl from headers
 	- unbundled freezethaw
 	- mostly rewrote common/map.C
