- <li><tt>05.12.03 API: *** CHANGE *** Frame load syntax has
- changed
- to make it consistent across all modes and file formats. In
- particular,

- &lt;options&gt;</tt></li>
- <li><tt>05.12.03 API: *** CHANGE *** shared memory loads no

- off the image. Instead, (1,1) is used.</tt></li>
- <li><tt>06.18.03 WCS: Remove preference Panner WCS origin. This

+error.</tt></li>
+<li><tt>04.29.04 GUI: fixed a race condition in which ds9 'thinks'
+the windows have been realized, and XPA has been init'd and the
