Hi,

I am pleased to announce Harvest-1.9.13.
This ia a development version.

What's new:

        * Improved soif2xml.pl.

        soif2xml.pl uses a smarter approach to keep the XML tree in sync with
        the SOIF tree. It also should create fewer invalid XML files.

        * Improved zquery.pl.

        * Essence quits immediately when it can't compile quick-sum.cf.

        Essence crashed when a broken regular expression was used to summarize
        a candidate with essence's interneal regex based summarizer, causing
        loss of all data gathered until the crash. The new behaviour should
        avoid data loss and make it easier to write quick-sum.cf.

        * Broker doesn't eliminate duplicate data from a gatherer based on
        MD5. (Suggested by jwaite@ti.com)

        Former behaviour of the broker was to avoid duplicate documents. This
        was done by comparing MD5s of documents. If a gatherer sent summaries
        of two to identical documents "a.html" and "b.html", only one of them
        was kept in the broker.

        This behaviour was changed. It is now possible to have identical
        documents under different names.

        * Updated to curl 7.10.8.
