Version 1.11. Tagged as 'ABRelease-1_11'

This change is mainly to enable a choice from several ROMs to
be made at boot to softload, but it also...

- Displays version & date of available ROMs, in date sequence.
- Remembers last ROM used as default for auto-boot next time.
- !Help file added to SoftLoad.
- Allows extra Message files for different Territories.
- The ROM version check is dynamic, not fixed in !Run.
- Only affects RiscPC, Iyonix & Titanium builds.

Detail:
  The main changes are to the Prompt program, with parameters added to !Run
  and Loader.
Admin:
  Developed and tested on a Titanium running 5.24 softloading 5.28 & many 5.29.
  Also tested on RPCEmu 0.9.4 with all combinations of:
  Running 3.50, 3.60, 3.71, 4.02, 4.39, 5.20, 5.22, 5.24 & 5.28
  Softloading   3.60, 3.71, 4.39, 5.20, 5.22, 5.24, 5.28 & 5.29

Version 1.10. Tagged as 'ABRelease-1_10'

Detail:
  SparkFS was previously not offered as a package so that the read-only version
  didn't class with the full version.

Version 1.09. Tagged as 'ABRelease-1_09'

After the previous change, the facility to softload a ROM at boot is
effectively the same on all these machines. This change generates it from a
single Generic set of source files, rather than the sets for each of 5 build
processes previously.

Some insignificant inconsistencies have been eliminated, and 14 files merged
into 7.

The Prompt BASIC program is now BasicTxt, and Crunched for release.

Testing:
All 5 builds have been generated by simulating the AutoBuilder, and the
resulting zips compared before and after these changes with no significant
differences found.

Version 1.08. Tagged as 'ABRelease-1_08'

Admin:
  SoftLoad-1_22 built with cc 5.90 in the Disc environment.

This will enable a Titanium to have the same softload option
shown at boot time as the Iyonix & RPC have always had.
Delete old TrySoftload obey file.

Version 1.07. Tagged as 'ABRelease-1_07'

Version 1.06. Tagged as 'ABRelease-1_06'

Bulk rename from Choices.Boot.PreDesk.!!SoftLoad -> Resources.SoftLoad
Update URLs to HTTPS

DHCP added (ref BuildSys-7_77).

Checking the boot sequence reveals !Internet is still correctly checked at each
use so is safe to package on its own. A side benefit being CertData updates
will now be flagged in PackMan.
Delete OMAP3Live disc support (was removed from BuildSys-7_33 in 2019).

Version 1.05. Tagged as 'ABRelease-1_05'

These 5 items don't have dependencies or subdivisions, so can be handled by the existing package generator.
Also fix a problem with the package generator when the major version number changes the package suffix wasn't being reset to '1', eg.
 "Thing_1.23-5.zip"
 "Thing_1.24-6.zip" (expected "Thing_1.24-1.zip" here)

Version 1.03. Tagged as 'ABRelease-1_03'

Version 1.02. Tagged as 'ABRelease-1_02'

Also, remove the local copies of Prompt/SoftLoad in favour of the centrally held ones in 'Generic'.

Version 1.01. Tagged as 'ABRelease-1_01'

First added in July 2015, no longer provide ZeroPain with every development ROM since it could be seen as a cause for alarm to a new user, and is a useful diagnosis tool to old deck hands.
Move the documentation of ZeroPain to its new home in the BonusBin, and add some notes and a link to the docs of the other developer modules provided (DebugBttn, DebugTools).

Version 1.00. Tagged as 'ABRelease-1_00'

For DiscDev this can simply be 'any' as it uses machine 'All'. Mark the package policy number as 0.6.0.0 which is when this field appears.

Version 0.99. Tagged as 'ABRelease-0_99'

Resolver & ShareFS added (ref BuildSys-7_37).

Version 0.98. Tagged as 'ABRelease-0_98'

FilerUtils added (ref BuildSys-7_36).

Version 0.97. Tagged as 'ABRelease-0_97'

NetUtils added (ref BuildSys-7_35).

Version 0.96. Tagged as 'ABRelease-0_96'

Also extend the PkgHardDisc4 tool to allow a package name to be different to the component name listed in ModuleDB.
Fix bug when a new package is added to the list (so it's not in the previous hashes) where it would reuse the previous entry's ZIP suffix.

Version 0.95. Tagged as 'ABRelease-0_95'

Also extend the PkgHardDisc4 tool to handle accumulating hashes that would otherwise be longer than a BASIC string could hold.

Version 0.94. Tagged as 'ABRelease-0_94'

Printers is aka PrinterManager
Retagged as ABRelease-0_93.

Version 0.93. Tagged as 'ABRelease-0_93'

The autobuild doesn't set the CSD as previous assumed.
Retagged as ABRelease-0_92.

At the end of a DiscDev build, turn the output into packages for transfer outside of the autobuilder.
Which things to package is driven by a package database ('PackageDB') which is cross referenced with the ModuleDB. It also collects licence terms from the respective source directory.
Package suffixes start at '1' and increment if the contents change - ie. it's not pegged off soley the VersionNum, so if a library or tool gets a fix all impacted components will get a new suffix.

DiscDev/clean: Wipe away any intermediate packages
DiscDev/release_autobuild: Create the packages
Makefile: Correct a typo

In this initial stage, only the Diversions are covered. Baby steps...

Version 0.92. Tagged as 'ABRelease-0_92'

Update DiscDev to copy the ReadMe/txt (and LICENSE) into the resulting Zip. The SEC doesn't include this as extraction isn't interactive and would deposit 2 files up one directory.

Version 0.91. Tagged as 'ABRelease-0_91'

Built in the Disc environment.

Version 0.90. Tagged as 'ABRelease-0_90'

This has the effect of changing from Castle to Apache licence

Version 0.89. Tagged as 'ABRelease-0_89'

Correct the *Copy command otherwise the monitor configuration !Run file ends up 1 dir too high.

Version 0.88. Tagged as 'ABRelease-0_88'

Detail:
  Tidy unmatched quote (the term is defined earlier in quotes).
Admin:
  Submission from Chris Mahoney.

Built in the Disc environment.
Also, copy in the softload tool for TitaniumDev as for IOMDHAL and Tungsten.

Version 0.86. Tagged as 'ABRelease-0_86'

Detail:
  Fix wiki links to point at actual page not redirector.
  Copy common paragraphs to OMAP5 from OMAP3/4.
  Add SDCreate notes to iMx6.

Version 0.85. Tagged as 'ABRelease-0_85'

Admin:
  Derived from the BCM2835Dev set.

Version 0.84. Tagged as 'ABRelease-0_84'

To handle the situation where the disc based BASIC V has *not* been loaded, but the disc based BASIC VI has, add a dummy obey file to the Library so that it can start *BASICFPA instead.
At some future point this can be removed when the disc based BASIC combines all 3 floating point types in one.

Version 0.83. Tagged as 'ABRelease-0_83'

Detail:
  Resources/Generic/ZeroPain/!Boot/Choices/Boot/PreDesk/!!ZeroPain/ZeroPain,ffa - Update to ZeroPain 0.07, for better behaviour with the compatibility page introduced by Kernel-5_87
Admin:
  Tested on BB-xM


Version 0.82. Tagged as 'ABRelease-0_82'

Detail:
  Resources/BCM2835(Dev)/release_autobuild,feb - For the release candidate images, we've standardised on calling the ROM riscos/img. But the archives produced by the autobuilder output them under the name 'riscos'. Update the autobuilder to also use riscos/img, to save the user the hassle of renaming the image when installing it.
Admin:
  Untested


Version 0.81. Tagged as 'ABRelease-0_81'

BASIC/BASIC64 added (ref BuildSys-6_90).

Version 0.80. Tagged as 'ABRelease-0_80'

  PreDesk !Run file tested, however the changes to the release_autobuild scripts aren't.
