+Changes from Version 0.6 to now (not yet released)
+
+ - Changed timezone-stuff again. With S5, now the machine-info is
+ evaluated. This info holds the Psion's time-offset so that we
+ are able to calculate the offset correctly, regardless of the
+ Psion's setting. All that is done in a new class PsiTime.
+ For S3, a Fallback is provided using an Env-Variable "PSI_TZ" which
+ can be set to the Psion's time-offset in seconds.
+ - Added lots of rpc related stuff:
+ - Implemented a procfs-like subdir in plpnfsd. Processes can
+ be examined and misc. parameters can be examined/changed using
+ the entries in <psionMountDir>/proc/
+ Several parameters can now be changed on the fly:
+ attribute-cache timeout in seconds: proc/acache (rw)
+ debuglevel: proc/debuglevel (rw)
+ directory-cache timeout in seconds: proc/dcache (rw)
+ Psion's owner-info: proc/owner (ro)
+ Unix-owner of mounted directory: proc/unixowner (rw)
+
+ Stopping of plpnfsd has now changed:
+ Old:
+ reference /mnt/psion/exit
+ New:
+ echo stop > /mnt/psion/proc/exit
+ This should be safer than accidentally referencing a file.
+
+ For every process running on the psion, a subdir in proc/ is
+ created with two files "cmd" and "args" (both ro). cmd is the
+ process-name, args is it's commandline.
+
+ - Added machinfo command in plpftp for displaying lot of interesting
+ information about S5. (E.g. battery status etc.)
+ - Added killsave and runrestore to plpftpd. Both take a unix file
+ as argument. killsave kills all processes on the Psion and saves
+ restart-information to the specified file. runrestore reads a file
+ created by killsave and starts all processes saved in this file.
+ -> Functionality similar to the behavior of PsiWin before/after backup.

Changes from Version 0.5 to 0.6:
- Maintenance release: bugfixes in plpnfsd and libs which make
