+Since 4.95
+----------
+
+JH/01 Move the wait-for-next-tick (needed for unique messmage IDs) from
+      after reception to before a subsequence reception.  This should
+      mean slightly faster delivery, and also confirmation of reception
+      to senders.
+
+JH/02 Move from using the pcre library to pcre2.  The former is no longer
+      being developed or supported (by the original developer).
