Revision history for Perl extension AddressBook.

0.16  2/02/2001
    - Makefile.PL now builds a config file for the LDAP backend test script.	 

0.15  1/22/2001	
    - Added "anonymous" parameter to LDAP constructor to support anonymous binds.

    - Added support for 'url', 'lurl', and 'textblock' attribute types

0.13  1/14/2001	

    - Added phonelist.cgi sample script
    - Added abook.palm (direct) and SyncAbook.pm (for PilotManager) sample scripts
    - Configuration file now supports defining multiple backends of the same type (a.k.a.
      "backend aliasing").  The 'driver' attribute determines the backend type.
    - LDAP searches are now "strict" by default.  The "fuzzy" parameter can be used
      for approximate matching.
    - Sync changes
      - Before comparing entries, attributes that exist in one database 
	but not the other are deleted from both the master's and the slave's entries.
      - Because records in the slave may contain less information than those in the master,
	it is necessary to 'merge' entries when the slave's entry is newer (rather than 
	simply overwriting the master's entry as was done previously).  One side effect
	of this is that attributes deleted on slave entries will reappear unless they are
	deleted on the master.  This is similar to the way that records deleted on
	the slave will also reappear unless they are deleted on the master.
    - PDB backend changes:
      - phone label overrun fix
      - now handles multi-valued attributes
      - now removes deleted records 'on the fly'.
