GDP

The four GDP servers at Berkeley have been updated to the latest development version of the system. This is not an official "numbered" release. However, it does (hopefully) fix a few problems in the log server, notably with subscription renewals. In particular, it should at least partially address Bugs #69 and #77, and possibly #75.

There are also some fixes in the GDP library. If you want to test these you'll have to download and compile the code from the repository. We'll do a numbered release once we have more assurance that the code is stable. If you do recompile the code and you have problems, please include the revision number in your bug report. You can get this using the command:

strings $program | grep '@(#)libgdp'

where $program is the path to the program you are running (for example, /usr/bin/gdp-reader). The output should look something like:

@(#)libgdp 0.7.2 (2016-11-12 11:51) 4f976ad9f75dad291b4f4516b5ddee4025503957

The magic number will tell us exactly which revision you are using.
