From Common C++ 1.4.1 to 1.4.2
- xmlfetch and test.xml work file in demo directory test xml parsing.
- setFollow() option for urlstream.
- setProtocol() option for urlstream.
- install our autoconf macros locally.

From Common C++ 1.4.0 to 1.4.1

From Common C++ 1.3.3 to 1.4.0
- Meno Abels provided a great little patch for using STLPORT with Common C++
- added "-with-stlport[=dir]" to configure to enable STLPORT usage
  and specify where STLPORT is.
- fix for intel solaris.
- added multicast to socket support.
- made URLStream work and have added urlfetch demo code.
- URLStream extended features added.
- new method of handling Common C++ Win32 "dllexport" vs "dllimport";
  export.h included during dll build to export remaining symbols,
  otherwise cc++ headers always act as "import" for target app.
- XMLStream parser added to posix tree, uses libxml2 underneath.
- Fuller support for HTTP/1.1 including "chunked" transfer encoding.
- URLStream seperated from "socket" code for easier editing.

From Common C++ 1.3.2 to 1.3.3
- added httpHeader to allow derived object to receive and parse headers.
- added -I and -L flags to ccgnu-config.
- OST_CCXX_VERSION macro added to check for a minimum version of CommonC++:
  OST_CCXX_VERSION([MINIMUM-VERSION [,ACTION-IF-FOUND [,ACTION-IF-NOT-FOUND]]])
- make sure getThread returns _mainthread if no threads are active.
- ost_commoncxx.m4 merged with ost_check.m4.
- added testCancel for non-yielding test.
- socket address structures pre-initialized to zero.
- added cmdoptions from [e-mail]
- sem_getvalue added to Semaphore class.
- millisecond timers with itimer option.
- cleanup for inaddr.cpp and Borland C++ compiler.
- fixed and improved Borland C++ makefiles.

From Common C++ 1.3.0 to 1.3.1

From Common C++ 1.2.6 to 1.3.0
- UDPTransmit/UDPReceive/UDPDuplex classes redesigned based on ccrtp
  work.  These now form base RTP stack components rather than duplicated
  in ccrtp.  Matches ccrtp 0.3.0 release.
- slog now uses thread-safe buffering to assure consistency.
- exception handling mode is now part of thread rather than global, and
  is inherited from parent to child.
- restructure address class slightly to allow symbolic hostnames to be
  used in base InetAddress object.
- select rather than "poll" is the preferred default method of pending
  and selection timeouts if sys/stream.h is also present.  This is to cover
  systems which do not impliment "poll" for socket descriptors or outside
  of stream device drivers.
- new ccgnu-config mechanism to get attributes and compiler options.
- new test for single argument sigwait for older sunos, etc.
- test for namespace support.  Common C++ will soon use namespaces.
