The 1.7.1 release was prepared and issued primarily to deal with ticket 3382,
relating to the fact that GDAL 1.7 has had a significant regression in that
all Erdas Imagine (HFA/.img) files produced are unreadable by non-GDAL software
including released versions of ArcGIS and Erdas Imagine. Following is a list
of all bug fixes since the 1.7.0 release.
== General ==
* MacOS X: Support versioning for framework builds

* NITF: Improve dateline handling for CADRG products

* ECW: Fix one broken case in configure logic
* RasterLite: Fix crash on 32bit platforms
* NetCDF: Prevent CreateCopy() of complex bands
* HDF4: Fix buffer overflow with GeodeticLatitude
== OGR / Vector ==

* MIF/ogr2ogr: Fix new problem translating to MIF format
* GeoJSON: Support stdout output via new /vsistdout/ name

* Fri Dec 4 2009 Eric S. Raymond <esr@snark.thyrsus.com> - 2.90
GPSD-NG, the new JSON-based command protocol, is now deployed; as a
consequence, AIS is now fully supported in both daemon and client.
Detection of end of a fix-reporting cycle is now reliable;
accordingly data is accumulated from cycle start and the "J"
(nojitter) opoption on both server and client side is gone. We have
abandoned the gpsflash subproject since it has become apparent that
we can't do it without more vendor cooperation than we're likely to
get. Increase major version of shared library due to significant API
change. Added new driver for Motorola Oncore receivers, with help
from Håkan Johansson. gpsfake can now accept multiple logfiles,
interleaving test sentences from each. gpsd now accepts error
estimates from the NMEA $GPGBS sentence.
