       and vpf drivers. 

     - Added support for parsing capabilities documents, in libogdi utilizing
       Expat (incorporated into the source tree under devdir/external). 

     - Added public client side API for accessing capabilities and version
       information (cln_GetLayerCapabilities(), cln_GetVersion()). 

 o Upgraded VPF driver to support brackets in query expression.  Implemented
   using generic "restricted_where" processor (swq.c).

 o Upgraded ADRG, RPF and DTED drivers to support Image (as well as Matrix)
   family support based on updates supplied by DND. 

 o Added contributed GDAL raster driver as contrib/gdal.

 o Updated zlib in external/zlib to 1.1.3.

 o Embed version number in OGDI shared libraries (eg. libogdi31.so).

 o Updated licenses within source code to reflect the redistributable nature
   of code written by LAS on contract to DND.  

 o Variety of bug fixes, primarily to drivers. 

 o Remove warnings during build from core code.
