99.08.29
  - changed GlassTile to use fill3DRect - now city/settler overlays
	look a lot better
  - changed all menu actions to AbstractActions and enable/disable
	action not menuitem
  - added autosettler,autoattack,irriagte,mine,fortify and fortification
	commands

99.08.28
  - moved image/sound loading to separate thread - now login panel
appears
	much faster
  - corrected bug in setShowingCityRange - now city range is shown after
	switching it here and back
  - added VectorListModel with compareAndReplace method - reduces
flicking
	in lists during city updates
  - added basic custom renderers and sorting to lists in CityDialog -
need
	more work on that
  - remove city packet for not known city do not longer raise exception
  - added untested support for REMOVE_PLAYER packet

99.08.27
  - added i18n hooks in many classes - all that's left is to provide
	translation files :)

99.08.26
  - HexMap now paints by layers not stacks - allows more complicated
terrain
	overlays

99.08.24
  - added PktRulesetTerrain for future use
  - added preliminary Help dialog

99.08.23
  - changed few repaintTiles(x,y,width,height) to
	repaintOneTile/repaintTilesAround in CivMap to make later integration
	of HexMap easier
  - moved few methods to GenericMap

99.08.22
  - added SystemInfoPanel
  - UnitDescription pane now uses own renderer

99.08.21
  - corrected few bugs in unit stack handling (I'm shocked it almost
worked
	all that time), but still there is at least one remaining

99.08.20
  - added few utility methods to HexMap for getting nearby hex
coordinates
	(nextHex(...))
  - now cancel in build city dialog really cancels city build
  - added next unit/next idle unit commands

99.08.19
  - now settler overlapping with city puts red tiles
  - added menu item to control showing of city range glasses
  - corrected bug in city change production scrap detection - ifs were
	structured wrong

99.08.18
  - added experiment with transparent panels
  - finished HexMap
  - added glass overlay for showing possible unit movement, scraped it
	and added glass overlay for settler city range

99.08.17
  - when more than one unit is present in stack, next one is visible
	under flashing one - at slightly different position to differatiate in
	case of units of same type
  - now minimap will react on big map resize (visible rectangle change)
  - added sound support - now just need to add hooks everywhere
  - added hook for nuclear explosion sound
  - added hook for unit combat sounds
  - LabelledMenuItem now grays out key desc when disabled
  - Orders menu is enabled/disabled depending on unit active
  - Map is added only after receiving game running state - it saves
	tile by tile repainting of map
  - started HexMap implementation and moved some common code from
	TileMap to GenericMap

I've done some screenshots of city range overlay and scaled tiles from
my client. They are available at
http://thenut.eti.pg.gda.pl/~abies/freeciv/ss/screens.html

99.09.05
  - changed scaling routine, so no longer scaling down and up
	lowers quality

99.09.04
  - started TriangleSlider which will be used in lux/science/gold tax
	setting

99.09.02
  - None tech does not longer appers in tech menu

99.09.01
  - after scaling new images are loaded scaled (corrected bug)
  - mapFrame reacts to main frame resize
  - confirm dialog for disband unit
  - replaced Point with Coords class in many places in tile package to
	have more obvious meanings of return types of various methods
  - added TripletCoords methods to HexMap to support three-axis hex
	coordinates (a lot easier in some computations)
  - added shadows to edges of visible map (not very pretty for now)
  - plain TileMap now also is painted layer by layer, not stack by stack
  (helps for long city names and maybe performance)

99.08.31
  - totally change image load system - now only needed images are
	loaded, plus all not used at the moment are softreferenced so
	they will get cleared when memory is low; additionally
	implemented FileImageSource which clears it's data as soon as
	possible, reloading from file when needed; all this reduced heap 
	usage at start from 13M to 3M and should save at least 4-5M even 	in
late game  

99.08.30
  - added goto command
  - drawing routine for 3d hex outlines in HexMap
  - added scale command
