+TODO: op->failmsgf ("You lack the proper attunement to cast %s!", &spell_ob->name); <- why for moving bsall spells? check if caster is player?
 TODO: potionimp/stat potion descriptrions
 TODO: 22:29:37 -server:#cf- Scara chats: schmorp: i'm trying to get a clue about the tarot and the meaning of the
 TODO:           sepharoth, it goes like this: philosophical salt equals "Gunas" (Subconsciousness), philosophical
 TODO:           sulfur equals "Rajas" (Activity) and philosphical mercury equals "Sattva" (Superconsciousness) or
 TODO:           the sepharoth "Kether"
 TODO: "illegal" access to mlab via town portal in zealots house near mlab tavern
 TODO: only store face checksums in C++, store everything else in perl
+TODO: the motd command is missin
+TODO: cast create missile's argument should be documented and should work for bolts as well, example:
+      if I use 'cast create missile bolt, it would create bolts (+4) and if I use
+      'cast create missile bolt Fire, it would create bolts of Fire. 'cast create
+      missile Fire bolt would be invalid. These changes should be reflected in the
+      spell's description.
+TODO: bowmode threewide (and possibly others) might not properly respect movetype
+      and arrows might end up in places where they shouldn't, e.g. on top of see-through
+      walls.
+TODO: rijk's frontend does not look for .xhtml files when serving static files.
+TODO: Allow players to forget spells in the testing server - this makes spell testing and iteration simpler.
+TODO: cspm spell arg
+	- (maps) remove random worbench under house in darcap, fix exit and add random
+          reading to dragonslib map, modify zealots house in mlab/tavern.map to remove
+          illegal mlab access (ephraim).
+        - (maps) make some containers unstackable that erroneously stackable.
+        - detect stackable containers at load time and make each stack a single item
+          (reported by Saiapatsu).
+        - do not allow runes to be cast into inaccessible areas (reported by Saiapatsu).
+	- last remaining BUG (that showed up in the logs for the last years) has
+          been fixed: monsters would snatch arrows/thrown_objs out of the air without
+          stopping them, causing BUG: arrow had no map. Fixed by marking shot arrows,
+          bolts and thrown objects as NO_PICK temporarily.
+        - since binutils/gcc/etc. conspired to break static archives, converted the server
+          binary build into non-recursive Makefiles without static archives. hell, automake
+          is certainly not ready for non-recursive makes, what a hack :()
+	- use c++11 headers in preference to tr1 ones.
+	- fix odr violation: struct point.
+        - make the code warnigns-clean, for some definition of warnings.
+        - port to g++ 6.
+        - implement keep_suffix meta for cfutil, so files keep their extension.
+        - built-in webserver uses improved content-type detection and uses charset utf-8
+          by default.
+        - do proper etag caching for resources in http server.
+        - fix webserver 304 response, which contained entity-headers, confusing squid.
+        - potentially fix a bug where ob->contr is non-null while ob->contr->ob is null,
+          causing a segfault.
+        - change DIRX/DIRY macros to take a diretcion as argument, and use them instead of
+          directly referencing freearr_[xy], as the latter is used  alot more often then
+          DIRX/DIRY, and this allows us to change freearr_[xy].
+        - tentative port to C++ 17.
+        - fix a potential bug with packet << (const char *)0.
+        - add COPYING.Other.
+        - include libecb and decore compiler.h and other places in preference to it.
+        - include ska's flat_hash_map and use it instead of unordered_map/set.
+3.1  Wed Nov 16 23:17:11 CET 2016
+	- convert to blitz++ 0.10 and later (also requiring c++ 11).
+	- port to perl 5.18 and newer.
+        - switch to xz compressed archives as only dist method.
+        - upgrade to automake 1.15.
 	- (maps) hopefully fix tobias' tower.
         - (maps) hopefully fix healing potion vendor in arena entrance.
         - (arch) fixed an error in the Gnarg scale mail artifact.
         - it was possible to unapply or half-unapply cursed items in many
           cases, which confused players and also player state. fixed.
           (such as money, which won't stack afterwards).
         - (maps) the shady rogue in goths can unapply cursed items for you.
         - (maps) implement a wilderness town portal.
         - (arch) set proper(?) int values for all monsters.
         - (maps) fire5.map could destroy players.
-        - (maps( fix pet arena pit/arena entrace and exits.
+        - (maps) fix pet arena pit/arena entrace and exits.
+        - clear the spell's applied flag when inscribing scrolls, to make the
+          scrolls mergeable.
         - redo all build material faces from scratch.
         - dropall without arguments now drops all containers.
         - use blitz++ for vector maths (new dependency).
         - only match archetype names in artifact allowed names.
         - new command "bumpmsg" that triggers the bump-into-wall messages.
         - altars with match expressions did not work properly.
         - use last_sp not cursed/damned flags in remove_curse/damnation spells.
         - god enemy race check fixed ("god detests your race").
-        - gods errornously allowed any kind of worshipping race, even
+        - gods erroneously allowed any kind of worshipping race, even
           ones they hate.
         - use same default config in code as on gameserver.deliantra.net.
         - Pod::POM 0.26 and higher actually interpret =encoding, which broke
           our parser.
         - generate slightly more special exits and avoid warning.
         - rework the random map parameter passign a bit to be extendable.
         - (random maps) use a nonrecursive algorithm to generate mazes,
           also, improve the quality of the mazes (no longer will the edges
           almost always form a passage) and add two new types - "rooms"
           and "braided".
+        - implement --unique option to reset command.
         - (random maps) add new "cave" layout, which is much more ...
           cave-like.
         - (random maps) new layout style "castle" that generates straighish,
           rogue-ish maps.
         - (random maps) new layout style "multiple" that simply mixes multiple
           no known impact.
         - clean up unused settings, introduce DELIANTRA_DATADIR.
         - (arch) added potion of fortitude to resist fear for the jeweler skill.
         - (arch, maps) move worldmap gridmap data to arch/res/ and implement
           a generic table/matrix/palette converter to cfutil.
+        - avoid crash in describe_item when a power crystal has maxsp=0 (as used,
+          apparently, in the brewery map).
         - do not endlessly loop when an optional extension cannot be loaded.
         - remove limits of 000..999 from worldmap coordinates, support negative
           coordinates and introduce z-layers - deliantra is now 3d, in yet another
           sense.
         - move "the worldmap" to ext/map-world-classic.ext and make ext/map-world.ext
           client.
         - sort faces by name in the server to improve caching locality in clients.
         - actually prune face checksums (exp_table's checksum was too long).
         - add skill_info and spell_paths resources to enable caching the info
           and removing another command.
-        - add command help info as res/command_help.
+        - send completion info to the client.
         - assume all clients support the deliantra protocol extensions and allow
           fxix/extcmd and other protocol "extensions" before setup.
         - implement flash-policy-file server on server socket, to allow flash clients
           to connect.
         - implement exti doclet request to request documentation,
           server hot cache throughput for faces from ~24000 to ~18000 requests/s
           on my system. this should make it possible to add a lot more media files
           in the future, and reduces the memory footprint by the server from 180mb
           to 60mb ram.
         - create food/missile will now fail when the mapspace limits are exceeded.
+        - pod processing could deadlock because the child process might try
+          to get a lock.
+        - removed support for ncom packets.
+        - remove drawinfo packets from the server (use msg instead).
+        - skill objects now have their documentation in the msg slot.
+        - no longer allow prefix match when matchign spells, spells names must
+          now be written fully.
+        - avoid a deadlock when the incloader is called to load an in-memory
+          file in a child process.
+        - implement spellmon v2 protocol - no spell message.
+        - remove ability to cats/invoke seplls by "count".
+        - the "may" mechanism now supports uuids ina ddition to nicknames.
+        - implement dm/dmhide in terms of the "may" mechanism, so dm
+          players must now be configured by adding may_command_dm: ["uuid..."]
+          to the config.
+        - remove nowiz command.
+        - change dm hiding - hidden status is no longer respected by spells etc.,
+          it only affects information commands. use observe instead.
+        - automatically send fx for all changed faces, not just for visible tiles.
+        - fix g++-4.7/c++ incompatibilities in noise.h, and work around similar
+          problems in blitz++.
+        - catch sigfpe in the same way as sigsegv.
 3.0  Sat May 29 23:30:57 CEST 2010
         - (maps, arch) complete revamping of the transport routes - all cities are
           now easily reachable, at a price.
 	- (maps) the mana fountain now has a ratelimit of 30 potions per hour.
         - move mark, run, run_stop, fire and fire_stop commands back from
           perl to C++, for speed reasons (basically undo patchset 1304).
         - add a client_destroy event, so we don't have to hook the
           attachable destroy event (which is called much more often).
         - removed (unused) FLOOR object type.
-        - fix errornous change_abil messages for rods (and other types).
+        - fix erroneous change_abil messages for rods (and other types).
         - remove include/commands.h and server/c_new.C, and refactor
           all into server/commands.C.
         - save and restore combat/ranged/current slot for players.
         - the server now batches item's face/fx commands, as opposed
           to sending one fx per item - helps mostly at connect and
