In the usual place,
   http://www-internal.alphanet.ch/~schaefer/vgetty/global_patches/CURREN=
T/

you will find mgetty-1.1.21-to-13111999.bz2, the global patch to apply
to the mgetty-1.1.21-24Jul.tar.gz or something distribution,
with patch -p0.

People using the CALLED ID extension to the cnd script (this patch
schrinks and schrinks, since more functionnality is added to
mgetty itself), e.g. to accept or not accept a call based on called
or caller MSN in the CND script, also want to look in the CALLED-ID*
directory.

	* Released mgetty-1.1.21-to-current-13111999
=09
	Those two changes absolutely need wide testing:
=09
	* Removed the enter_fax_mode() function from libvoice/mode.c,
	and moved the enter_data_fax_mode() from vgetty/answer.c to
	libvoice/mode.c. This ensures that there is only one way to
	answer and go data or fax from voice mode. Before, we had two,
	each one with its own set of bugs. This changes the way answering
	is done, also the going to fax/data when a voice shell fails,
	but also GET_FAX and SEND_FAX voice shell commands.

	* Patched the resulting libvoice/mode.c with the recently posted
	patch (from Dmitri Pogosyan), which should fix the Rockwell
	problem when going from voice to fax/data. The idea being that
	you use auto-detection ONLY if answer_mode is ANSWER_DATA|ANSWER_FAX.
	Else, if it's only one of the two, you switch off modem
	autodetection (+FAA=3D0) so that +FCLASS state is used.

	Those changes are presumably minor:

	* Patched libvoice/detect.c to support the Italian version of the
	Rockwell modem (Rockwell compatible modem 33600), submitted
	by <Free Ekanayaka> ekafree@freemail.it.

	* Added setup information for PowerBit modems to
	contrib/PowerBit_Olsson, submitted by H=E5kan Olsson,
 	<suntron@algonet.se>

Wide testing should be good, so that what gets 1.1.22 (whenever this
happens) works.
