	  using SigC signals.

	* rulesets/Entity.h, rulesets/Entity.cpp, rulesets/Py_World.cpp:
	  Remove pointless deleted flag, as the only time its true is when
	  the object has been deleted, and accessing would cause a segfault.

	  final, as they are never overridden.

	* rulesets/Creator.cpp: Correct comments.

	* rulesets/MemMap.cpp: Add comments clarifying behavoir, and remove
	  old pseudo-code.

	* server/Account.cpp, server/Account.h: Ensure that an accounts
	  character dictionary only ever contains characters. Other entities
	  that the account chooses to create will no be stored here. Add
	  function to be called at login time to make sure that characters
	  stored here are still around.

	* server/Connection.cpp, server/Connection.h, server/ExternalMind.cpp,
	  server/ExternalMind.h: When external mind of a character is

	  Add method for getting a new serialno.

	* rulesets/Thing.cpp, rulesets/Thing.h, server/WorldRouter.cpp:
	  Set refno on ops as they come back from entities. Set serialnos

	  a more accurate term.

	* common/globals.cpp, common/globals.h, tools/cyloadrules.cpp:
	  Put admin modifiable config in etc instead of share directory.

	  operation mapping where operation types each object is subscribed
	  to can be enumerated, and others are rejected. Add mechanism

	  are only used for comparison, the expensive square root
	  calculations can be ommited. Add new version of collision

	  by Vector3D.

	* physics/BBox.h: Add new version of collision checking function
	  which provides optimal interface to the application.

	  using comparison does not appear to work.

	* rulesets/BaseMind.cpp: Added updating of minds WorldTime each

	  the build. Used to track details of the time. Added support for
	  checking time descriptions such as "midday", "summer" against

	  so that the arrow is removed from inventory as it is fired.

	* client/define_world.py: Added archer, arrow and deer to test
	  shooting code.

	* server/server.cpp: Made CommClient more robust in the event
	  if immediate disconnection by initialising pointers to NULL;

	  object. Ensure that an object is deleted from ServerRouting's
	  idDict when it is deleted from the world.

	  rulesets/Character.cpp, rulesets/Entity.h, rulesets/Entity.cpp,
	  rulesets/Python_API.cpp: Added handling of operation types not
	  directly supported by C++ classes in the scripting engine. In
	  order for these to be used they must be created in a script, and
	  received in a script.

	* rulesets/Character.cpp: Avoid using RootOperation pointers unless
	  that is really what we mean.

	* rulesets/Character.cpp: Added code to delete operations from
	  internal mind when external mind is active.

	* modules/Location.h: Added inRange() method which can be used
	  to check whether location, including bounding box, is within
	  given range of a given location. Changed parent member
	  variable to ref to fit with Atlas spec. Changed all code
	  related to using the term ref instead of parent so
	  that there is no confusion between ref for coordinates
	  and parent in the Atlas hierarchy.

	* rulesets/Thing.cpp: Added code to move operation to check
	  what entities come into and out of range when entity moves.
	  Appearance and Disappearance operations are sent to the
	  moving entity with a list of the relevant entities as their
	  argument.

	* server/WorldRouter.h/cpp: Added overloaded Look operation
	  handler which applies range constraints to the contains
	  attribute before returning.

	  of a Message::Object.

2000-12-06  Al Riddoch  <ajr@ecs.soton.ac.uk>

	* Fixes to worlds object list so it now contains world.

	* More python code tweaks to work with modifications to interface.

	* Modified code which gets Thing attributes from Message::Object
	  so it can use any object dictionary to look up parent object.

	* Fixed handling of Thing's static type attribute.

	* Modified creation of operations from python to eliminate
	  some strange segfaults.

	* Re-wrote and fixed Entity creation from python.

	* Implemented dictlist.remove_value for removing things from inventory.

	* Implemented Vector3D arithmetic and methods from python.

	* Implemented as_entity() and get_xyz() methods for Thing from
	  python.

	* Commented out deletion of operations from python OperationObject
	  dealloc() function as it was causing segfaults. There is a problem
	  somewhere with ownership not being cleared, but I can't find it.

	* Implemented conversion of Python Operation and Oplist objects
	  to Message::Object.

	* Fixed MemMap so that attributes of Things are accuratly updated.

	* Fixed it so that look ops from mind are broadcast rather than sent
	  to world. This may have to be reverted.

	* Tweaked autoconf to make it cleaner and work better. Still needs
	  alot of work.

2000-12-05  Al Riddoch  <ajr@ecs.soton.ac.uk>

	* Added new common namespace to prevent collision with math function
	  log.

	* Added in lots of deletes to sort memory leaks.

	* More python tweaks.

	* Implemented status attributes of thing.

	* Re-wrote some code which needlessly creates objects in the
	  free store.

2000-12-04  Al Riddoch  <ajr@ecs.soton.ac.uk>

	* Started working on sorting out memory leaks.

	* Implemented python function to deal with not being able to check
	  type of python objects implemented in C.

	* Added method to thing for extracting location data from a
	  Message::Object

	* More work on python references to improve leakage.

	* Added flag so that python Operation object can own
	  the operation they point to, and thus delete it in dealloc().

	* Implemented find_by_location() and find_by_type() as required in
	  MemMap, and corresponding python interface.

	* Put in temporary work around to deal with the fact that a mind
	  does not know its name. Currently the mind is not able to
	  discover any of its bodies attributes, and I am not sure how
	  to solve this.

	* Fixed Location and Vector3D so they use operator bool() to detect
	  whether they are set.

	* Fixed bugs in getting parent from Location in python which caused
	  segfaults.

	* Imported all the basic ruleset entity python scripts.

2000-12-03  Al Riddoch  <ajr@ecs.soton.ac.uk>

	* Implemented Entity arguments to Operaiton creation in python.

2000-12-03  Al Riddoch  <ajr@ecs.soton.ac.uk>

	* Debugged set_kw() and confirmed that it does work.

	* Added python API support for self.world.

2000-12-03  Al Riddoch  <ajr@ecs.soton.ac.uk>

	* Added support for varconf config files.

	* Used config file to list enitity types and their python class files.

	* Cleaned up reference counting in Python API related C++ code.
	  References should all now be handled correctly.

	* Added support for adding None to Operation and Oplist.

2000-11-30  Al Riddoch  <ajr@ecs.soton.ac.uk>

	* Added dictfunc functionality to Python interface.

2000-11-30  Al Riddoch  <ajr@ecs.soton.ac.uk>

	* Added more required functionality to base python Thing class
	  so that operation manipulations can now work.

	* Implemented getting of object name to python/C API, and added
	  methods for differentiating between op and object.

	* Implemented on-the-fly de-coding of operations, from operation
	  arguuments in python/C API. This will be obsolete once Atlas-C++
	  does full decode later.

	* Implemented get and setattr for Message Object from
	  python. Attributes are stored both in Object, and in supplementary
	  python dictionary for non Atlas compatable attributes.

	* Implemented copy() method for Python/C Location class.

2000-11-29  Al Riddoch  <ajr@ecs.soton.ac.uk>

	* Added in debug function for python code.

	* Fixed coersion of non-oplist types for addition.

	* Implemented getting attributes from Message::Object maps
	  from python.

2000-11-29  Al Riddoch  <ajr@ecs.soton.ac.uk>

	* Added support for decoding Sound operations in BaseMind.

	* Added Talk operation throughout operation handling code.

	* Added basic WorldTime class together with python wrapper.
	  Can fill in functionality as required.

	* Put debugging back in cos I still need it.

2000-11-26  Al Riddoch  <ajr@ecs.soton.ac.uk>

	* Added in Python interface code to deal with manipulation of operation
	  time.

	* Made basic_tick a float, because it should be.

	* Imported all the rulesets python code from python cyphesis.

2000-11-26  Al Riddoch  <ajr@ecs.soton.ac.uk>

	* Fixed and changes to code so that operations created in python
	  mind code are delivered as required.

2000-11-24  Al Riddoch  <ajr@ecs.soton.ac.uk>

	* Disabled some of the excessive debugging.

	* Implemented getting and setting of to and from in operations
	  using map to lookup what the mind knows about the entities
	  in question. This involved adding an extra field to the
	  RootOperationObject structure to store to and from entities.

	* Sorted out base_init() python member so __init__() of all
	  classes in inheritance tree are called.

	* Started work on set_kw() replacement.

	* Added python module finding mechanism which is required to deal
	  with rulesets correctly. I am not convinced this works.

2000-11-23  Al Riddoch  <ajr@ecs.soton.ac.uk>

	* Added oplist python interface, and implemented returning of
	  operations from python code.

2000-11-22  Al Riddoch  <ajr@ecs.soton.ac.uk>

	* Moved character mode calculation into MovementInfo class.

	* Added new MovementInfo method which creates a movement op to
	  change the rotation of a character when no other update is needed.

2000-11-22  Al Riddoch  <ajr@ecs.soton.ac.uk>

	* Filled out Location python interface so it is now fully functional.

	* Inlined Vector3D class for performance.

2000-11-21  Al Riddoch  <ajr@ecs.soton.ac.uk>

	* Bug fix that meant that updates to MemMap object caused segfault.

2000-11-21  Al Riddoch  <ajr@ecs.soton.ac.uk>

	* Filled out the python common.const module with all its values.

	* Added code required to create an operation from with python.

	* Modified the Thing python interface so that python objects
	  that Atlas doesn't want to know about are stored in a normal
	  attributes list.

2000-11-20  Al Riddoch  <ajr@ecs.soton.ac.uk>

	* Added some more python interface classes. There is now enough code
	  here to start importing real mind code from cyphesis-py.

2000-11-19  Al Riddoch  <ajr@ecs.soton.ac.uk>

	* Two small bug fixes. One stops a crash when the client tries
	  to move an object which does not exist, the other removes an
	  unnecessary pointer check which stopped the admin client from
	  working.

2000-11-19  Al Riddoch  <ajr@ecs.soton.ac.uk>

	* Filled in BaseMind functionality so it now keeps memory map up		  to date. Added necessary features to Python/C++ interface
	  for sight operations to be passed onto python code after processing
	  in C++. Added new type of op switch to deal with operations
	  in the argument of a sight/sound operation.

	* Added features to Opeation python interface for args to be
	  accessed as if operation is a sequence object.

	* Implemented python API for C++ memory map class.

	* Added utility function which uses code borrowed from Atlas-C++
	  to convert a Message::Object into something from the Objects
	  code.

2000-11-18  Al Riddoch  <ajr@ecs.soton.ac.uk>

	* Moved some of BaseMind functionality in a python class and
	  added the necessary interface code.

	* Initial port of MemMap class from python to C++, together with
	  python interface. Hopefully maintenance of MemMap can be kept
	  in C++ for speed if possible.

2000-11-16  Al Riddoch  <ajr@ecs.soton.ac.uk>

	* Sorted out error handling from python code, and no-longer treat
	  no method as an error.

	* Got python interface code to the point that python classes can now
	  access the C++ attributes of a Thing.

	* Split the python interface code into separate files depending
	  on the type of C++ class the code relates to.

2000-11-16  Al Riddoch  <ajr@ecs.soton.ac.uk>

	* Added code for standard Get/Set methods for operations.
	  Eventually this functionality will be moved into getattr
	  and setattr methods.

	* Added code for a Thing object which wrappers a C++ Thing * pointer.

2000-11-15  Al Riddoch  <ajr@ecs.soton.ac.uk>

	* Cleaned up problems with mode in move operations, and dealt
	  with stopping when velocity is set to zero.

2000-11-15  Al Riddoch  <ajr@ecs.soton.ac.uk>

	* Fixed silly typo in movement code which meant that velocity was
	  not being used to calculate direction when only velocity is
	  specified.

2000-11-14  Al Riddoch  <ajr@ecs.soton.ac.uk>

	* Added more Python/C API code. Basic framework now exists for
	  creating and manipulating Operations in the python code.

2000-11-10  Al Riddoch  <ajr@ecs.soton.ac.uk>

	* Fixed setting location of newly created objects

	* Fixed setting weight as float on default Thing.

	* Added more support for mode and face in movement code.

	* Cleaned up the debugging output code.

	* Fixed looking, and added support for contains attribute

2000-11-10  Al Riddoch  <ajr@ecs.soton.ac.uk>

	* Added more refno capabilities

	* Fixed some operation instantiation bugs

	* Added full support for creator entity. Admin client can now populate
	  the world with items and NPCs.

2000-11-09  Al Riddoch  <ajr@ecs.soton.ac.uk>

	* Removed two conflicting "WorldRouter * world" members from
	  class hierarchy.

	* Added setting of refno to operations, so client can tell
	  what they apply to.

	* Sorted out initialisation of python path.

	* Added loading of admin account, allowing admin client to communicate.

	* Made sure all attributes of created objects are set, so that
	  character gender works.

	* Added face attribute to Thing, to indicate what direction it faces!

	* Modified error operation so it complies with traditional format

2000-11-08  Al Riddoch  <ajr@ecs.soton.ac.uk>

	* Added enough python interface to load a simple module, get the
	  class from it, instantiate that class, and call operation methods
	  from it. Still to be implented is the Atlas-C++ API for embedded
	  python.

2000-11-07  Al Riddoch  <ajr@ecs.soton.ac.uk>

	* Fixed movement code so that id of object to be moved is correctly
	  present. uclient now sees movement. Woohoo!

2000-11-07  Al Riddoch  <ajr@ecs.soton.ac.uk>

	* More movement fixed. uclient movement now works within the server,
	  but uclient does not like the responses it gets.

	* Fixed a bug which caused a segfault when movement stops.

2000-11-05  Al Riddoch  <ajr@ecs.soton.ac.uk>

	* More movement fixes, including lots of clearer debugging output.
	  Still does not seem to correctly handle moves which don't 
	  specify direction.

2000-11-04  Al Riddoch  <ajr@ecs.soton.ac.uk>

	* More movement fixes. I now get almost expected behavoir

	* Switched over to new Atlas location spec now that this is supported
	  by uclient.

2000-11-04  Al Riddoch  <ajr@ecs.soton.ac.uk>

	* Improved debugging output in movement code, and fixed some critical
	  bugs which meant that movement was not working correctly.

2000-11-02  Al Riddoch  <ajr@ecs.soton.ac.uk>

	* Modified legacy location code so it is now activated by a single
	  #define

2000-11-02  Al Riddoch  <ajr@ecs.soton.ac.uk>

	* Added temporary support for old Atlas style location object
	  in entity to move operations. This allows uclient to work for
	  now until it moves over to the latest Atlas spec.

2000-11-02  Al Riddoch  <ajr@ecs.soton.ac.uk>

	* Fixed some attributes of in-game object

	* Added temporary support for old style Atlas location so we still
	  work with uclient.

2000-11-02  Al Riddoch  <ajr@ecs.soton.ac.uk>

	* Fixed it so that server does not exit if client negotiation fails.

	* Cleaned up detection of disconnected client

	* Re-wrote thing factory so it is now a static object instance rather
	  that a static method, and added the beginnings of support for
	  python "Thing" classes.

2000-10-31  Al Riddoch  <ajr@ecs.soton.ac.uk>

	* Modified stream code to get rid of seeking-on socket problem

2000-10-24  Al Riddoch  <ajr@ecs.soton.ac.uk>

	* Added handling of client disconnection

2000-10-24  Al Riddoch  <ajr@ecs.soton.ac.uk>

	* Fixed movement code which now works.

	* Fixed set operation, and added attributes map to Thing.

	* Started adding Python interface code.

        * Starting changelog from initial attempt to port cyphesis into C++.
