Kannel development version 1.1.5 released

NEWS about Kannel: Open Source WAP and SMS Gateway version 1.1.5

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,
until we decide to release 1.2.  See the VERSION file for details.

Changes since version 1.1.4:

Compatibility breakers:

 * sendsms service now uses the HTTP status code in replies, instead of
   always using 200.  Valid requests get 202 (Accepted), invalid requests
   get an error code.

New features:

 * fakewap is better at testing high loads.

 * Added sender-prefix configuration variable for CIMD2.

 * A new sms-service escape sequence, %i, which expands to the smsc-id
   of the message.

 * Added a status.xml service to the administration interface.

Bugfixes:

 * Minor bugfix to emi2.

 * Fixed handling of accept-x-kannel-headers and assume-plain-text
   configuration fields.

 * Phone-as-SMSC driver can handle text messages with UDH.

 * Fixed a rare case that could cause a deadlock between the bearerbox
   and smsbox.

 * Fixed a bug that prevented having many smsc configuration blocks.

 * HTTP: Correctly handle redirections to invalid URLs.

 * Don't panic if there is no "default" sms-service.

Development news:

 * Beginnings of https support.  Not secure yet.
