111 *Add some LSB init.d scripts
112 *Add max_plugins_output_length parameter to limit the checks output size.
113 *"Hack" the old nagios parameters : now status_file and nagios_log are catched. If the user defined them, but do not defined the good broker modules, we create them "on the fly". I hope one day we will remove it...
114 *Nested macros are managed (like USERN in ARGN macro).
115 *Add a pass about changing Nagios2 properties to Nagios3 ones.
116 *Add json outputformat to the livestatus module

119 *Redesign of the notifications (far easier to understand than the old async way)
120 *Notice about unused parameters and explain why it can be removed from conf.
121 *Catch non standard return code in actions.py so we can add stderr to the output for such cases.
122 *Now arbiter host_name property is not mandatory. But WARNING : for a multiple arbiter conf, it must be set.
123 *Updated cfg documentation (Author: Luke L <lukehasnoname@gmail.com>)
124 *Add documentation about date range format because it was not documented.
125 *Update the nagios to shinken migration file
126 *Change the way broks are send from Arbiter to Broker : before, the Broker connect to the Arbiter, take broks like for schedulers. But Arbiter also connect to broker. That's a nightmare about hangout. Now, Arbiter push the broks. It's far more easy and efficient.
127 *Add template handling to servicedependencies
128 *Add test_dependencies as the regression test
129 *Less status_dat verbosity :)

154 *Bug Fix : when a date was calcl before teh ref time for a weekday it was not recalculated, so problem.
