----------version 0.5.8----------

2003.09.08:
# all xmlrpc methods now provide a signature
# fixed some html_factory issues

2003.09.06/07:
# lots of minor fixes
# relay now dumps satellite data (xml) on exit and loads it on start
# host_id: dropped the time-prefix to avoid multiple registrations
  (needs some more thinking...)
# added default param_dict to methods that can be called without arguments
  (listMethods, ping)
# modified horst's java applet, works now. included very primitive
  standalone version in distro

2003.09.02:
# pd.bridge now parses co2 messages and passes on numbers and
  symbols separately to pd.

2003.08.30/31:
# rewrote pd bridge plugin from scratch
# added receiver/sender pd patch (pd-patches/bridge.pd) and a simple example
  patch to give an idea of what the interface for a co2-aware patch might
  look like
# loader.py now passes config filename as plugin variable...
# ...and plugin.py tries to load it on init

2003.08.23/24:
# fixed plugin-notification, relayed messages are now received
  by all plugins on all satellites (except the sender, of course...)
# basic global debugging through one single debug method
# cleaned up registry and satellite modules
# completely rewrote plugin architecture:
  loading and initializing is now done by module loader
# plugin module:
  writing a plugin now is as simple as subclassing plugin.Co2Plugin
  in plugins/example (more or less...)

2003.08.20:
# switched to python2.3: socket module now has settimeout() :]
# moved xmlrpclib and httplib (patched with settimeout) to co2 dir
  -> client.py (proxy) uses these
# exceptions thrown by socket timeouts (caught anyway) cause the
  calling thread to exit cleanly
# fixed relaying:
  - change in plugin architecture to reflect absence of channels

2003.08.19:
# set receive timeout via setsockopt

2003.07.31:
# option -b / --background

PAUSE!

2003.04.30:
