16 - change floorbox item ordering to enable more efficient protocol and to
17 stay in sync with the 0.9971 client update which also reverses ordering.

80
812.52 Thu Apr 24 11:47:19 CEST 2008
82 - completely automate the item add/delete on remove/insert. this should fix
83 all "ghost" item bugs caused by sloppy coding, as sloppy coding is now correct :)
84 - completely automate the weight handling, should fix all weight
85 accounting bugs caused by sloppy coding, as sloppy coding is now correct :)
86 - reloading archetypes while a user was in the character creation phase
87 could crash the server.
88 - fix a nontrivial number of cases of code commented similar
89 to "is this really correct?", as many of those cases are now handles
90 automatically by lower level code.
91 - replace many ad-hoc checks for client visibility by object::visible_to,
92 should result in broader applicability of functions using it.
93 - merge items with different arch pointers refering to the same arch
94 (due to archetype reloads).
95 - refactored the object remove/insert functions and most related
96 functions (decrease, split, merge_ob etc.).
97 - make it compile better on freebsd (reported by pippijn).
98 - remove GT_UPDATE_INV (no longer applicable).
99 - fix the longstanding "container stays open" bug.
100 - improved floorbox updating to be incremental and other protocol

105
1062.51 Sun Apr 20 21:27:37 CEST 2008
107 - properly link against libgthread as that is needed to make the slice
108 allocator thread-safe.
109 - support perls not compiled with 64 bit support (though this is not a
110 recommended configuration) (reported by Samuel Gondouin).
111 - always put godgiven items into the player inventory, never any containers.
112 - (arch)
113 - (maps, arch) the scorn go club was founded!
114 - (arch) do no longer support player abilities, they didn't work anyways.

117 - (arch) the alchemist class now get an alchemy spell book for new characters.

119 - match archetypes by name, not by ptr, in treasure.C, this makes archetypes

121 - changed archetype loading algorithm to only require one pass and
122 use delayed resolving of references.
123 - examine command now uses the examine infobox.
124 - implement an "incremental garbage collector" for archetypes.

126 - implement optional free memory poisoning.
127
1282.5 Wed Apr 16 15:06:53 CEST 2008
129 - the two handed weapon skill can no longer be used as unarmed combat
130 skill.
131 - append [drop xxx coins] to altar/trigger_altar/identify_table/converter
132 names (also update all maps to use money instead of coins).
133 - add uuid accessors to perl.
134 - add coin names and archetype accessors to perl.
135 - fix runtime uuid file format to use "." instead of ",".
136 - change perl extensions to not use hardcoded coins and values.
137 - write uuids asynchronously (no hiccups due to uuid writes)
138 and be more parsimonous of uuid usage by the exact value out on exit.
139 - write log messages in another thread, removing another sync point.
140 - support multi-line log messages in a nicer way.
141 - be more portable w.r.t. uuids and format specifiers everywhere.
142 - fix a minor memleak in the random map generator.
143 - some parts of the random map generator are not coroutine-safe,
144 so only call it "single-threaded".
145 - major cleanup of memory management in random map generator.
146 - slight refactoring of the random map generator, faster too.
147 - solve the "slice_alloc becomes negative" mystery - no allocation bug,
148 bookkeeping bug.
149 - work around "player is on active list" problem by deactivating player
150 after loading.
151 - garbage collect shstr's more evenly and adaptively only when
152 there have in fact been allocations.

154 if necessary.
155 - fix cf::map::unique_maps.
156 - fix nrof overflow check in can_merge_slow.
157 - fix converter code to handle >31 bit values.

164 when mlockall has been used.
165 - pass environment to perl_sys_init3, as required by newer perls.
166 - use separate thread for ticker timing (and more in the future).
167 this greatly increases timing accuracy and gets rid of an enourmous
168 number of gettimeofday calls.
169 - use a separate thread to signal aio completion, for lower latency.
170 - require Coro 4.47, which fixes a data corruption bug with its C API.
171
1722.42 Sat Mar 15 12:05:21 CET 2008
173 - rebalanced default experience table to be more exponential
174 and much easier up to level ~40, then moderately harder.

179
1802.41 Fri Jan 25 13:15:37 CET 2008
181 - get rid of YAML::Syck, it's too buggy and misparses many files
182 (this fixes the jeweler skill).
183 - back-to-back perl_reloads don't freeze the ticker anymore.
184 - convert cfutil from Event to EV (forgot to do this earlier...).
185 - move tombstone to real map if player died due to cave-in (even if
186 it has reset, which is better than putting it on the savebed, also as
187 proof that the palyer didn't use a savebed).
188

212
2132.32 Sun Dec 2 18:11:01 CET 2007
214 - limited the number of items that can be picked up and dropped
215 as temporary measurement against bad performance or dropping things
216 (this lead to long freezes and triggered the watchdog).
217 - improved the performance of the drop command a bit.
3 - switch from Event to EV for higher performance, easier usage, 218 - switch from Event to EV for higher performance, easier usage,
