31 Jan 2005
    - version 0.5
    - documented nids.param() variables.
    - documented TcpStream and HalfStream methods and members in module
      docstring.
    - added 'Prerequisites' to README.

27 Jan 2005
    - version 0.5rc1
    - setup.py nonstandard patch(1) invocation flummoxed FreeBSD (rpt. RB)

26 Jan 2005
    - version 0.4
    - docstrings added to module and module functions.
    - libnids-1.19 and ``nids_dispatch()'' patch bundled, allowing proper
      exception handling in callbacks all around.
    - API: 'dispatch' function added.  Undocumented and subject to change if
      libnids adopts similar function.
    - misc: setup.py searches '/usr/local' by default.  <netinet/in_systm.h>
      included.

24 Dec 2004
    - version 0.4rc1
    - makeRegisterFunc macro increfs user-supplied function.  (On linux, at
      least, registration of bound methods would precipitate segfault.)
    - hs_get_data, hs_get_urgdata return strings now, not read-only buffers
      objects.

06 Dec 2004
    - version 0.3
    - API: 'pcap_timeout' parameter support for libnids >= 1.19
    - API: 'collect' and 'collect_urg' are boolean-ified
    - tp_getset/tp_method reimplementation of TcpStream and HalfStream
    - fix possible memory corruption (noticed by JN):  hlfs->data member not
      guaranteed to be allocated (e.g., in a NIDS_JUST_EST conn).
      API: We treat as an empty buffer in this case.
    - misc: Py_RETURN_NONE, PyModule_AddIntConstant(), "N" fmt specifier in
      udp handler
    - updated README

05 Dec 2004
    - version 0.2
    - "filename" awareness in nids.param() (patch JN)
    - exception throwing retracted for next()/run(), after difficulty
      indicated by JN.  next() now returns as does nids_next(), and run()
      returns None.
    - updated README, Example

13 Aug 2003
    - half-stream "data" member now raw PyBuffer
    - plug minor nids_param memleak
    - errbuf() retired in favor of module exception (nids.error).  init,
      run, next and getfd modified accordingly
    - updated README

20 Jul 2003
    - version 0.1
    - mem: fix callTcpFunc() memleak, discretionary HalfStream ctor
    - run()/next() exception propagation
    - added Example, installation blurb

18 Jul 2003
    - complete register_*, remove some error-checking (!)
    - pytuple4
    - README, CHANGES

17 Jul 2003
    - init, run, next, discard, getfd, register_tcp
    - TcpStream objects, HalfStream objects
