+        - bugfix: correctly send the client a del_spell when a spell gets removed.
+        - bugfix: spell effects like word fo recall are removed when dieing.
+        - remove synchronous mkdir in chargen_race_done.
+        - fix per-race starting maps.

+
+2.53  Sun May  4 17:32:48 CEST 2008
+	- bugfix: custom skill settings were not saved by the server.
+	- bugfix: remove did not actually remove items from the inventory, leaving
+          ghost items.
+        - bugfix: properly update items identified on the ground.
+        - bugfix: use localtime_r in the logger thread.
+        - bugfix: player starvation will now give the correct kill reason.
+        - bugfix: archetype reloads could crash the server.
+        - bugfix: the mailscrolls are now correctly handed out even when the destination
+          player is not logged in.
+        - bugfix: make list_logins non-blocking (glaring oversight). this caused the lag at
+          server startup.
+        - bugfix: fix the door surround check in the random map generator.
+        - (maps) fix heaven quest difficulty progression.
+        - (maps) fix some random map styles.
+        - dropping items a shop is not interested in won't sell them anymore.
+        - rods and horns with a too low maximum charge allow now at least one discharge.
+        - implement kill & death statistics.
+        - random map preparation is no longer synchronous.
+        - rewrite find_style in perl, no longer does synchronous I/O.
+        - improve random map specials placement.
+        - make the killer a real object pointer instead of a string, improved
+          kill reason messages.
+        - take advantage of new aio_close and aio_chmod.
+        - implement archetype::get, object::deep_clone and update callers.
+        - change_abil is much faster.
+        - update the floorbox more often to work around the reverses item order
+          display in clients.
+        - cleaned up object copying by encapsulating it to a single place.
+        - add hints to the invite messages.
+        - rewrote key<->value pair handling.
+        - use an independent random number generator for the random map generator.

+2.52  Thu Apr 24 11:47:19 CEST 2008
 	- completely automate the item add/delete on remove/insert. this should fix
           all "ghost" item bugs caused by sloppy coding, as sloppy coding is now correct :)
         - completely automate the weight handling, should fix all weight
