+More stats, and an actual stats web page.

+Function for MYSQL joins.

+----------------
+When the generate map command is given, generate the map.
+The month check seems a bit dodgy, but I'll let it ride for now.
+
+----------------
+OhSillyThreatLevels should throw an exception when not allowed.

+Various security clean ups.
+
+Force HTTPS for account.html.
+
+Poor mans Bobby Tables protection.
+
+Security token.
+
+Validate inputs.  Looking up the DNS records for email domain name.
+Don't allow creation of accounts with god names, leave that for the
+console.  Check if created user name exists already.  Double check the
+passwords and emails.
+
+Error messages on dynamic pages.
+
+Various clean ups.
+
+TODO++
+
+----------------
+Add HTTPS configs.
+
+----------------
+Better consistency with the other config.ini files.
+
+----------------
+Implement HEAD in our simple web server.
+
+----------------
+Allow a place for Robust.ini extras.

+Some text and length tweaks.
+
+----------------

+Bump build number.
+I should have done this after tagging RC0.
+
+----------------
+Actually calculate the sample money modules fake balance.
+
+----------------
+Teleport home from off grid shouldn't land on roofs either.
+
+----------------
+Bandaid for ghost users, check and remove them from Presence when they log on.
+Once again OOP proves it's worse that spaghetti, but cutting up the
+spaghetti and hiding it all over the kitchen.
+
+Note the commented out bits from GateKeeperService.cs, this stuff is
+checked TWICE, though this time is for HGers, or not.
+
+----------------
+Reload splash page every couple of minutes, to get fresh stats.
+
+----------------
+Beef up the web server a bit.
+Sanatize the path.
+
+Add support for Last-Modified, If-Modified-Since, and Cache-Control:
+no-cache.
+
+Teach the base server about more binary content types.
+
+----------------
+Godliness can be in the first name as well.
+As it is in IG.
+
+----------------
+ThisSim.ini -> Actual_Name.ini
+And a minor typo I'm suprised survived.
+
+----------------
+Make [Region] InternalAddress and ExternalHostName reasonable defaults.
+Also AllowAlternatePorts isn't actually in the code anywhere, get rid of
+it.
+
+----------------
+Missed this link for the start-sim all moved to left pane thing.
+
+----------------
+Modify start-sim to start up everything, with the output in the left tmux window.
+
+----------------
+Stop using num2name() in scripts.
+Turns out I was feeding "01" to it, so that's why it thought things
+where octal, and "01" is the result we wanted anyway.
+
+----------------
+Remove the left overs from the check4096 crap that is obsolete.
+
+----------------
+WebServerInConnector -> WebServerConnector
+Just a name change.
+
+----------------
+Various clean ups.

+
+Tables, with member accounts.
+
+Print the query values.
+
+----------------
+Testing MySQLRaw's SELECT.
+
+----------------
+Swap out MySQLGenericHandler and swap in MySQLRaw.
+Smaller, simpler, works better.
+
+----------------
+The beginnings of an account management web page.
+Just some simple dynamic pages that don't actually do anything.
+
+----------------
+The knomes have been obsconded with by hippos.
+
+----------------
+Reduce the width of the splash page divs.
+
+----------------
+Maybe now we can properly count locals and hypergridders on the web page?
+
+----------------
+Be more inclusive in the monthly online count.
+
+----------------
+Typo--
+
+----------------
+Add actual grid stats to the web page.
+Except HGers, still trying to sort that one out.
+
+----------------
+Add a more direct MySQL handler.
+
+----------------
+More splash page fiddling.
+
+----------------
+Clean up the contributors.  Mostly white space.
+

+
+----------------
+Pass -q through to ROBUST on start them all mode of start-sim.
+
+----------------
+start-sim -w waiting for ROBUST isn't working.
+
+----------------
+Running start-sim in scripts now starts everything up, with a delay.
+
+----------------
+ROBUST now reports INITIALIZATION COMPLETE FOR ROBUST.
+
+----------------
+Limits -= 2
+Low Y regions are no longer reserved for HG links.
+
+Varregions don't have to be square.
+
+Both now report a warning, but continue anyway.
+
+Cool VL Viewer handles non square regions, Singularity crashes.  Not
+tested on others.
+
+----------------
+More basic web server.
+
+----------------
+Warning--
+
+----------------
+Minor tweak to let inventory backup script work again.
+
+----------------
+Add a basic generic web server, and a login page, plus stubs for the other basic pages.
+And update everyone to suit.
+
+----------------
+Don't wait_for_text for anything between [], coz that's a grep thing.
+
+----------------
+start-sim wait for the [RegionReady]: INITIALIZATION COMPLETE FOR message.
+
+----------------
+Better sim startup finished messages.
+Inform neighbours we are up before the finished messages.
+
+Always send the "[RegionReady]: INITIALIZATION COMPLETE FOR" message.
+
+----------------
+Don't inform neighbours that we are up twice.
+
+----------------
+Tweaking create_sim.
+ExternalHostName = "${Const|HostName}"
+
+Move size to the third argument.
+
+----------------
+Hypergridders have their full name in firstname, and their grid in lastname.  Sometimes.
+Code filled with gotos may be spaghetti code, but object oriented code
+can be like chopped spaghetti.  At least with gotos you can follow them.
+
+----------------
+Another attempt at sorting out the auto group chicken and egg problems.
+Are you a local?  Asking for a friend.
+
+----------------
+Bump sim ports up by 2 when creating, coz 5 is silly.
+
+----------------
+Oops, move the GridService Region_ stuff to grid specific config files.
+
+----------------
+Tag and release OpenSim_SC 0.9.0.1 RC0.

+
+AddDefaultGroup and AddHGDefaultGroup_ config options added.
+
+----------------
+Comments++ about how to build and test debug builds.
+
+----------------
+TODO--  These got fixed a while ago.
+
+----------------
+ROBUST does support includes, so use them.
+
+----------------
+Automatically add members to certain groups, and HGers from specific grids to certain other groups.
+It doesn't let them know, though the last group added will be their
+active group.  This replaces a PHP script I used to use, that got broken
+by a PHP update.  It also didn't let people know, no one complained.
+This is better.
+
+----------------
+OpenSim found a new way for archiving to be spammy.
+The few resources that I have checked are actually missing from the
+database.  All the ones I tried in world are not missing anything.
+
+----------------
+Opensim user needs a proper shell.
+
+----------------
+Move from IG to SC flavour.
+
+----------------
+A few typoes slipped through.
+
+----------------
+Forgot to update a script comment.
+
+----------------
+Update and add more docs.
+I can feel a release coming.  B-)
+
+----------------
+Jiggle the grid specific configs.
+Add GodNames.
+
+Move the Groups and AuthorizationService sections back to config_*.
+
+Fix up the AuthorizationService for some sims.
+
+Add the so far not written AddDefaultGroup options.  I'll write this
+soon.
+
+----------------
+Make the stats log file sim specific.
+
+----------------
+apt-get -> apt.
+
+----------------
+Merge LureModule into HGLureModule.
+
+----------------
+Gatekeeper -> GatekeeperURI
+Coz it says all over the source code -
+// Legacy. Remove soon!
+
+And has since later OpenSim 0.7s.
+
+----------------
+OpenSim dev typo--
+
+----------------
+Combine LureModule and HGLureModule.
+Still need to clean up after this, LureModule.cs isn't needed anymore.
+
+----------------
+Allow sitting on attachments, and attaching tings with people sitting on them.
+Now we have to fix all the viewers that though it would be great to
+enshrine this bug in viewer side.
+
+----------------
+Make the installation more robust.
+
+----------------
+Move the terrain.raw file out of tree to a sim specific name.
+
+----------------
+For the "teleport from above" case, do the right thing.
+Which includes looking for designated floor prims, which have ^ as the
+first character of their description.
+
+Don't do "teleport from above" when we have proper coords.
+
+----------------
+Revert list content type check.

+TODO--
+
+----------------
+Add a test script for the unit tests.
+Now that nant wont work anymore.
+
+----------------
+Updated for Mono 6.
+
+----------------
+TPs from scripts avoid all that silly raycasting nonsense, just go where we ask.
+
+----------------
+Randomise the spawn points by default.
+Seems it works after all.
+
+----------------
+Allow menu items longer than 24 characters once more.
+I've never seen any problems with allowing this, my NPC tool does that.
+
+----------------
+Switch to using the internal offline message URL by default.
+
+----------------
+Tweak the login logging a bit, especially for impersonations.
+
+----------------
+Fix up prebuild stuff.
+
+----------------
+OpenSim changed the way FSAssets directory structure works by default, sort that out.
+Otherwise updating from 0.8 to 0.9 with FSAssets will fail to find new
+assets.
+
+----------------
+Attempt to render "[LLUDPSERVER]: Malformed data, cannot parse" into something human readable as an aid to diagnosis.
+Beats hand translating the big block of hex codes it was spewing.
+
+----------------
+Use F1 instead of ? as the in command help key.
+"?" was a silly choice, what if you wanted to use it in a command?
+
+Alas this doesn't seem to work, but at least you can type "?" now.
+
+----------------
+Log FS asset base and spool directory.
+The assets cache directory is already logged.
+
+----------------
+Put ConfigPath back in.
+ROBUST needs it.
+
+----------------
+Silly script to get around the lack of includes in ROBUST.
+This'll be temporary until I get around to adding includes to ROBUST.
+
+----------------
+Move the MG configs to their own file.
+
+----------------
+Comment++ about the DebuggerSafe config option.
+
+----------------
+Properly combine Robust.ini path.

+
+----------------

+
+Same as the usual Region.ini format, except we add a RegionName
+parameter.
+
+----------------
+Management scripts encounters the real world, needs patching up.

+
+----------------
+New TODO.
+
+----------------
+Clean up .gitignore.
+
+----------------
+Don't read .ini region files, use .xml instead.
+Coz OpenSim can get confused, and I have a better idea.
+
+----------------
+Some extra examples and performance .ini files.
+
+----------------
+Major clean up of .ini files.
+Sorry about the lack of details.
+
+----------------
+Build instructions ++

+
+----------------
+Remove some script distance limits.
+
+----------------
+One last big source of script slowness removed.

+
+----------------
+More script speed ups.

+Fix "only backup people that have logged in since last time", due to OpenSim changing the way they store that.

+Reduce various console spam.
+
+----------------

+
+----------------

+
+----------------
+More caches directory fixes, including moving console history there.
+
+----------------
+Sims are 16 km high now, about the maximum before prim jitter starts getting too much.
+Impy had been modified long ago to 16 km.
+
+----------------
+More config path fixes.
+
+----------------
+Fix up maptiles location.
+
+----------------
+Sleep is for the weak.  No wonder the standard script engines are so slow.
+
+----------------
+Links to addin-db-*, coz that's a Mono thing we can't control.
+
+----------------
+Attempt to move everything writable, and the configs, out of the bin directory.

+Less to delete this time.
+
+----------------
