	- added more info on the front page

Fri Nov 17 07:25:33 EET 2006
	
	- js: pop up tracked target info balloon only after centering on the
	  target, so that the balloon will (hopefully) fit and will not
	  abor the pan by doing it's own autofit

Fri Nov 17 17:09:54 EET 2006

	- js: when first searching a callsign, jump directly to the right
	  location instead of going via the initial default view
	- js: when we get a new point for a tracked target, only pop up the
	  info balloon and let it do the minimum required panning, instead of
	  triggering panning myself

Fri Nov 17 20:16:52 EET 2006

	  do it incrementally

	  requires ascii printable nicknames, but is UTF-8 compatible)

	- escape translated strings going into javascript properly

Tue Jan  8 23:26:26 EET 2008

	  when the balloon is shown, not when placing the waypoint icon

Sat Jan 19 16:03:18 EET 2008

	- fixed showing icons for stations with numeric overlays (? was
	  shown)
	- show overlay character & number together with the icon in some
	  of the web pages, not the maps though (yet)
	- added icons: \a ARRL: ARES(A), WinLINK (W) (instead of the ARRL
	  text), /E: eye, /F: farm vehicle (tractor)

Tue Jan 22 18:11:31 EET 2008

	- added rotating icons on map
	- show course on moving stations list
