0.14.4 2003-08-10
* Revised database API so that there are 3 distinct layers
(program, datastore, and database) with a clean interface
between them.
* Correct exitcodes in bogoutil by using EX_ERROR.
* Updated FAQ.
* Fixed token registration bug in 0.14.x versions.
* Fixed seg fault caused by database lock contention.
0.14.3 2003-08-05
* Fixed critical locking bug introduced into bogofilter 0.14.0 with
the combined-wordlist code: when working with separate wordlists,
bogofilter would lock only the first one opened, rather than all.
* Documentation updates.
* %g formatting is now supported by bogofilter's formatting functions.
* Merged trio 1.10 (http://ctrio.sourceforge.net/) to support
compilation on ancient systems (Solaris 2.5) that do not have
[v]snprintf functions.
Trio is Copyright (C) 1998-2000 Bjorn Reese and Daniel Stenberg.
* Various documentation updates, including the FAQ.
* The test suite was adjusted for older grep variants (Solaris 2.5)
that don't cope with long lines.

* Debug output for wordlists and databases was enhanced.
0.14.2 2003-08-02
* Replaced use of memcpy() by memmove() in an input routine. The

"combined wordlist" feature in 0.14.0. There has been a buffer
overflow. All users of bogofilter with combined wordlist prior to
0.14.2 are advised to upgrade.
* Fixed bogus "t.valgrind" test FAILures.
