2007-Jul-25 UPDATE   Jean-Pierre Charras <jean-pierre.charras@inpg.fr>
================================================================================
	** Some minor enhancements
+ pcbnew
	In Drc diags, better (more explicit) messages
	Change (and simplify) code in  'update' as well as 'insert' modules into main PCB from within the module editor,
	because it had a bug (crashes when there was no footprint in pcb)
	


2007-June-21 UPDATE Tim Hanson <tim@hardcarve.com>
================================================================================
+ pcbnew
	1. added button to 'update' as well as 'insert' modules into main PCB 
		from within the module editor.  Made them functional, of course. 
	2. added control-o, control-s & control-f to pcbnew, 
		though I'm not perfectly happy with the implementation -- wxwidgets puts
		the control-characters in alphabetical order!

2007-June-25 UPDATE   Jean-Pierre Charras <jean-pierre.charras@inpg.fr>
================================================================================
+ pcbnew
	minor enhancement in Edit footprint dialog (more help tool tips).
	better hotkey.cpp (code cleaning and info messages)



2007-June-19 UPDATE   Dick Hollenbeck <dickelbeck@yahoo.com>
================================================================================
+ pcbnew
    After locking a module with 'L', update the status window with the locked
    status.  Side step some asserts from wxWidgets which were happening when
    running compiled for debug.


2007-June-16 UPDATE   Richard A Burton <richardaburton@gmail.com>
================================================================================
+ pcbnew
	fix debug assert starting pcbnew with wx2.6
+ build
	add install targets for resources and docs

2007-June-15 UPDATE   Dick Hollenbeck <dickelbeck@yahoo.com>
================================================================================
+ pcbnew
    **  only modules on the present layer are subject to individual module
        moves, rotations, or layer swaps, with the 'M', 'G', 'R' or 'S' hotkeys.
    **  only unlocked modules are subject to the individual module moves,
        rotations, or layer swaps, with the 'M', 'G', 'R' or 'S' hotkeys.
    **  implemented the 'L' hotkey to quickly lock or unlock a module,
        just by hovering over it and hitting the 'L' or 'l' key. The lock is
        toggled.
    **  Enhanced locate.cpp's Locate_Prefered_Module(BOARD * Pcb, int typeloc)
        significantly, it now has a widely ranging behavior based on the 
        typeloc argument.

2007-June-11 UPDATE   Richard A Burton <richardaburton@gmail.com>
================================================================================
+ build:
