NOTE: This was the HISTORIC changelog-type document actually included
in the head of the AUB script. It was getting too bulky so I decided
to move it to a separate file. All new changes are kept in ChangeLog
which is generated from the CVS logs.

defined the values in this file
updated for perl5 as well

ask for them all (especially useful now with the

Fixed bug in handling of unresolved articles,
forgot to fix a function call from the XHDR
improvement
v2.0.9 5/98 blong@fiction.net

----------------------------------------------------------------------
v2.1 -- Nov01 avinash:
-- Removed most ` ` system() commands - major reduction in CPU load
- instead of SUM use File::Compare()
- instead of CAT for nntpserver, just read that file
- instead of MV, use move() from File::Copy
- $ECHO still being used, must exist in $PATH
-- ONLYrecognize keyword added, reject files not with listed suffix
-- SAMple keyword added, specify maximum number of articles to load
-- duplicate file names are renamed without changing file extension
-- summary statistics (number of files, rate of extracting) now provided
-- catchup (-c) now resets aubrc - unresolved article numbers removed too
-- Many minor updates:
- connect_tcp() - no need to compute ouraddr for socket connection

- move all aub config, rc, lock, etc files to $AUBHOME folder
- work under Windows NT also
-- socket.ph no longer needed, just use Socket perl module
