Announcing Kannel development release 1.1.2

NEWS about Kannel: Open Source WAP and SMS Gateway version 1.1.2

This is a DEVELOPMENT version. It should be usable for experimentation
and testing, and is a release candidate for 1.2. Please do try it out
and report problems to [email protected] (the development mailing list)
or [email protected] (the bug tracking system).

NOTE: This is not an update to 1.0.  Updates to 1.0 will be numbered 1.0.x,

Changes since version 1.1.1:

Compatibility breakers:

 * Format of access log output has changed.

New features:

 * Support for Ericsson GSM modems.

 * smsbox: HTTP responses can now send UDH messages by sending an
   X-Kannel_UDH header in the reply.

 * smsbox: Added "%b" translation for receiving binary data.

 * Updated and expanded User's Guide.

 * SMPP driver now responds to Enquire Link packets, which will help
   keep Kannel connected to an SMS center when the connection is idle.

 * Small perl script to read and summarize access log output.

 * wapbox is better at dealing with HTTP responses that are too large
   for the client, or in the wrong format.

Bugfixes:

 * WMLScript compiler avoids generating zero-length functions, so that
   the result works on more clients.

 * smsbox: Numerous fixes to the message splitting functions.

 * smsbox: OTA configuration works again.

 * WML compiler: Corrected encodings for "ordered true" and "ordered false".

Development news:

 * WML decompiler improved.
