From d547f87da5f68c12dede7c9d45618cae11ff5699 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Matt Windsor <matt@deling.(none)>
Date: Fri, 18 Mar 2011 08:28:09 +0000
Subject: Mega-commit to the rescue! Added Javadoc snapshot (admittedly old);
 show UI now fixed-layout; UI uses system selection colours for accents; now
 uses bapsserver password and can thus talk to show database relations;
 removed member relation dependencies until further notice; attempted to get
 application and applet launchers working but having issues with the latter;
 started working on a server communicating via a minimal implementation of
 HTTP 1.1 (standardisation required eventually).
