	* Bug-fix in the liquidwarmap utility (some maps could generate
	protection faults while compiling).

	* Bug-fix in the datafile generation (the background image palette
	was wrecked with Allegro 4.0).

	* LW is now compliant with the Filesystem Hierarchy Standard, this
	implies that binaries are in $prefix/games.

	* There's now a window title which says "Liquid War 5.4.3"

	* Added a windowed/fullscreen mode support.

	* Limited the size of "mesh elements" to 8x8 to avoid weird behaviors
	on very big and empty maps.

	* Added an uninstall target

	* Added some basic scripts to automatically build the various releases

	* Added a liquidwar.spec file so that it's easy to build a rpmOA

	* version 5.4.2 released

	* Bug-fix in the network code.

	* A few more levels.


2001-07-18  Christian Mauduit (ufoot@ufoot.org)

	* version 5.4.1 released

	* Fixed many bugs in the network support, and added the "-lag"
	option to the server. Basically it should be possible to play
	on Internet now. Also, the client now displays readable error
	messages when there's a problem joining the server.

	* Added names to maps so that it's easier to choose them,
	added a "speeds" and changed some other GUI related stuff.

	* The default memory allocated (8192Kb) has also been increased
	(16384Kb) so that the game can handle big maps. 2 new hudge
	maps have been added.


2001-07-07  Christian Mauduit (ufoot@ufoot.org)

	* version 5.4.0 released

	* The *big* change is that with this release Liquid War includes
	network support. There are probably some bugs left and some minor
	features are missing, but basically, one can play on a LAN.

	* The other important point is that the documentation is back -
	it had been lost when I had changed my web site - and is available
	in several formats (HTML, plain text, PostScript and PDF).

	* I also separated the Windows and DOS packages since the DOS .exe
	is quite big and most of the time useless to Windows users since
	DOS support in recent versions of Windows is getting worse and
	worse.


2001-03-18  Christian Mauduit (ufoot@ufoot.org)

	* version 5.3.3 released

	* Fixed some minor bugs which were revealed when creating the
	Debian package for Liquid War.

	* I also prepared a statically linked version of the game. This
	version installs itself in no time on almost any recent Linux box,
	so it's an interesting point for Linux users which do not feel
	like spending 3 hours compiling the game before being able
	to try it out.


2000-06-19  Christian Mauduit (ufoot@ufoot.org)

	* version 5.3.2 released

	* I changed the textures in the datafile and replaced the existing
	textures by textures I imported from the Gimp. This is for copyright
	issues since I can not find the author of the previous textures
	any more and would normally require his acceptance of my putting
	his textures in my GPL'ed game. So with Gimp's textures I'm pretty
	sure that I won't have any copyright problem.

	* I also started to comment the source files.


2000-04-09  Christian Mauduit (ufoot@ufoot.org)

	* version 5.3.1 released

	* I changed the Linux configure script so that it searches for
	dat (the allegro datafile compiler). The reason is that several
	players could not install LW because of this (they had downloaded
	the end-user version of Allegro but the full-version is needed).

	* I updated the Linux version so that it has all the features of
	the old dos version (including the "wave effect").

	* A starter kit has been prepared, it a lighter version with a 
	pred-built light datafile.It makes it easier to download LW
	quickly and try it out before downloading the full version.
	This implies that now one can use datafiles with any number
	of textures and maps.

	* I prepared binary packages for DOS & Windows (the windows version
	is *still* not very stable).

	* Added a button in the wave menu to toggle the wave effect without
	pressing F4 during gameplay.

	* Some bug fixing.


2000-03-12  Christian Mauduit (ufoot@ufoot.org)

	* version 5.3.0 released

	* All further major developpements of LW will be done from Linux.

	* I now use a unix style x.x.x numbering system for versions.

	* Liquid War is on sourceforge.net

	* I prepared scripts and changed the directory structure of the
	project, so that LW can be installed under Linux with standard
	commands like: './configure;make;make install'

	* Many small bugs have been fixed.


1999-09-06  Christian Mauduit (ufoot@ufoot.org)

	* version 5.2 released

	* Liquid War is now released under the GNU General Public Licencse.

	* Some improvements such as a 'frame per second limit' which limits
	the time taken by display operations so that the game is globally
	faster.

	* I release the first windows executable of Liquid War, it's not very
	stable but basically works.

	* Soon after, Peter Wang gives me patches to have LW run under Linux.


1998-11-21  Christian Mauduit (ufoot@ufoot.org)

	* version 5.1 released

	* Small bug fixes, changed some menus.


1998-09-26  Christian Mauduit (ufoot@ufoot.org)

	* version 5.0 released

	* Everything has been rewritten:
	- DJGPP used instead of Borland C/C++
	- Allegro is used as a wrapper for ease of developpement and future
  	portability
	- Optimization of the algorithm
	- Visual enhancements such as the "wave effect"
	- An 'understandable' GUI replaces the old cryptic one.

1995-07-01  Christian Mauduit (ufoot@ufoot.org)

	* version 3.0 released

	* built with borlandc++ 3.0, barely usable.
