Subject: cm_register_transition gyrations 
I am debugging a Rome-based DAQ system setup by Pierre A. (the system does not
work because of bugs in Rome).

One problem I see is with my copy of cm_register_transition() in midas.c. Rome
calls it with a NULL function to register a "queued" transition, but the
cm_register_transition() code has changed around (rev 3051) to make NULL mean
"unregister" a transition (this broke the queued transitions used by Rome), then
it got changed back (rev 3085). Of course, I was stuck with the broken version,
so Rome did not work at all, and it cost me real wall time to get to the bottom
of all this, only to discover that this problem is already fixed. So-

I would greatly appreciate it if, in the future, changes (and bug fixes) to the
MIDAS API were announced on this mailing list here.

K.O.
