+Things that still need to be done
+
+* Remove the global 'user' variable in the client
+  - this needs to be replaced with looking values up some other way
+  - should fetch a copy of the user record (ala who list) from the 
+    server and keep it cached. 
+  - update cached record whenever you get an IPC_CHANGE update
+
+* put in some proper encryption / auth mechanism so we dont wind
+  up potentially passing plaintext passwords around
+
+* check that the server is now logging all the things a user
+  says an does, client shouldnt really be logging anything much
+
+* have server perform the mwuri lookups and logging
+
+* final big change would be to have the server do the bbs features as well
