o too many changes to mention specifically, but amongst them:
- better error reporting
- openbsd boots, freebsd boots
- new 'term' flavor, I added a textmode interface, the only drawback
is that control-c is intercepted, and you must kill -9 it from
another tty if it doesn't exit normally
- new flavors:
- debugger -> debug (for shortness)
- i386
- pci
- smp
- net (compiles, does not yet provide networking, if anyone
wants to help, I'd be ELATED to have this fixed!)
- no_x11 (made it actually work)
- term (make sure to use 'log: /dev/null' or something else
on the cmdline, otherwise, debugging and the screen will
start getting quite confusing!)
- better error reporting (and no error reporting where it is not
necessary; a typicall boot of cdrom28.fs is a screenful of output now)
- in general, if the hardware reaches an unknown state, fail
gracefully instead of calling exit(1) .. are we trying to work or
are we trying to .. fail? I like working myself.

Mason is a powerful Perl-based web site development and delivery
engine. With Mason you can embed Perl code in your HTML and construct
pages from shared, reusable components.
Mason solves the common problems of site development: caching,
debugging, templating, simulating browser conditions, maintaining
development and production sites, and more.
Although it can be used from CGI or even stand-alone, it is optimally
designed for use with two other open source technologies: mod_perl
and Apache.

This module can be used to store multidimensional hash structures
in tied hashes (including DBM files).
Optionally, you can also switch to other serializing packages such
as FreezeThaw and Storable. Storable provides much greater speeds,
and the performance of FreezeThaw is comparable to Data::Dumper.
Incompatible changes with snapshot-20010128
===========================================
REJECT in header/body_checks is now flagged as policy violation
rather than bounce, for consistency in postmaster notifications.
The mailbox size limit for local delivery is no longer controlled
by the message_size_limit paramater, but by a separate parameter
called mailbox_size_limit (default: 20MBytes).
The default RBL (real-time blackhole lists) domain examples have
been updated from *.vix.com to *.mail-abuse.org.
Major changes with snapshot-20010128
====================================
Updated nqmgr (experimental queue manager with clever queueing
strategy) by Patrik Rak. This code is still new. Once it stops
changing (for a long time!) it will become part of the non-beta
release.
Virtual mailbox delivery agent by Andrew McNamara. This delivery
agent can deliver mail for any number of domains. See the file
VIRTUAL_README for detailed examples. This code is still new. Once
it stops changing it will become part of the non-beta release.
Many "valid_hostname" warnings were eliminated. The complaints that
were not eliminated were replaced by something more informative.
SASL support (RFC 2554) for the LMTP delivery agent. This is required
by recent Cyrus implementations when delivering mail over TCP
sockets. The LMTP_README file has been updated but still contains
some obsolete information.
Workarounds for non-standard RFC 2554 (AUTH command) implementations.
Specify "broken_sasl_auth_clients = yes" to enable SMTP server
support for old Microsoft client applications. The Postfix SMTP
client supports non-standard RFC 2554 servers by default.
- segregate slib in a separate directory, install a few more files for it
(ready for a separate package, whenever we get another scheme).
- let dynamic loading work on archaic a.out systems.
- install a few more *.scm programs. Probably misses a few files for a
full infrastructure to build other extensions (should create a libscm.a
on static systems ?)
- allows for x11 extension, even though it's very basic.
Flavorize it.
Issue: flavor sicp ?

tcpstat reports certain network interface statistics much like
vmstat does for system statistics. tcpstat gets its information by
either monitoring a specific interface, or by reading previously
saved tcpdump data from a file.
