SUBJECT: Important client package updates!
   DATE: Wed May  8 22:27:09 BST 2013

Wednesday again - swamped with work :( However I have just finished cleaning
up some changes to the client package that handles the main networking.

I've eliminated a lot of unnecessary allocations incurred swapping buffers
around.

I've also fixed a major oversight. I didn't limit the size of the buffers.
This meant that a client could send massive amounts of data that didn't
include a linefeed causing the buffers to grow and grow and grow...

It's a good job I warned you not to put a server on the internet yet. You did
listen ... didn't you?

Updates now pushed out to the dev branch.
