v1.2
12/28/2005
----------
* Fixed DTD version reference in web.xml to avoid validation failures (thanks
  Wendy!)

v1.1
12/17/2005
---------
* Added a dummy parameter to all AJAX requests except for posting a message
  to a room that ensures the URL is always unique.  This is done to deal with
  how IE caches responses when configured to automatically check for new
  versions of stored pages.
* Updated version number in the resource bundle.  It was listed as alpha 2 in
  the last release, v1.0.
* Modified logging throughout.  Basically, most things are now logged at
  debug level and are wrapped in code guards.  This is, to be honest, done
  mostly to make it easier to deploy it for the live demo with my host (they
  had a problem with the degree of logging previously).

v1.0
12/5/2005
---------
* This is the official, stable release.  Yes, beta was skipped as it didn't
  seem to be necessary.
* This version corrects a problem with the WAR file creation that was present
  in alpha 2.  My bad, had an incorrect path specified in the distro task
  in the build script and I didn't notice.
* Modified the clean task to, uhh, completely CLEAN.


v1.0 alpha 2
11/30/2005
------------
* Removed SessionListener and implemented UserClearerDaemonThread.  This is to
  deal with the fact that some servlet containers don't seem to handle
  SessionListeners in the way we need them to be handled here, and hence they
  can't be used to deal with inactive users (i.e., users who close their browser
  without properly logging out).  This thread does that.
* Removed some superfluous logging and changed log messages to go to proper
  levels (they were all set to info level before, which was easier during
  development, but isn't proper now).  Also generally cleaned up logging to
  be more useful throughout.
* Added Commons Validator JAR to lib directory.  This is needed on some app
  servers (like Resin, where the live demo runs).
* Cleaned up and expanded comments throughout.
* Modified build script so distro task works properly.  This can now be used
  to generate a WAR that is ready to deploy (note that the WAR *does* include
  the src folder).  The WAR is then zipped up and appropriately named for
  distribution on the Struts Apps SourceForge page.  Nice and easy for me! :)
* Added a version number display to the welcome and lobby screens.  This is
  more for me so that I can tell when Resin has deployed an updated WAR on
  the server where the live demo runs.
* Cleaned up the user controls available in the chat room (i.e., lined things
  up, reorganized them, etc.)
* Remapped filter to only paths ending in .do.
* Changed all AJAX requests to GET instead of POST to overcome errors that
  happened when using the live demo from Firefox.
* Add this history file!


v1.0 alpha
