Changes in 0.15.1:
- 3/4ths of the restructuring to make it feasible to use lib5250 for display
  services for applications has been done.
- Lots of cleanup - no longer has duplicate field value data, nor does it have
  many different componenets having a different perception of what the current
  field is.
- Implemented terminal bells.  Whistles yet to come.
- Some minor stuff.  Field Exit Required fields now require field exit, for
  example.

Planned for 0.15.2:
- Configurable keyboard -> 5250 function mapping (instead of 
  hardcoded one).  This is a different thing than having the keymaps and
  terminal types; those just expose different keys to the emulator.
- Properly implement zone shifting of signed numeric fields.
- More cleanup, fix bugs introduced in 0.15.1
- Debating whether to pull in gnome-5250 sources into tn5250 package.
- Debating whether to pull in James David Rich's dds2curses utility and hack
  it to work with lib5250 instead.  (To James: I certainly want to put that
  in the CLUG CVS server, in any case, did I already ask you that?)

Planned for 0.14.1 (tomorrow evening?):
- Fix core dump reported by Scott Klement

0.15.1 IS A DEVELOPER'S RELEASE!!!!  IT WILL CRASH.  I HAVE A LIST OF BUGS FOR
IT ALREADY, SOME OF THEM MAY BE SHOW-STOPPPERS.

That being said, you might find it useful and bug reports are very much
appreciated.

-Jay 'Eraserhead' Felice
