[LAA] Rivendell v1.7.1

[Fred Gleason]

On behalf of the entire Rivendell development team, I'm pleased to announce 
the release of Rivendell v1.7.1.  Rivendell is a full-featured radio 
automation system targeted for use in professional broadcast environments. It 
is available under the GNU General Public License.  Changes in this release 
include (from the NEWS file):

*** snip snip ***
This is a maintenance release of Rivendell, with primary focus on fixing
identified issues.  

Changes:
   New Switcher/GPIO Devices.  Support has been added for the Broadcast 
   Tools SRC-8 III and SRC-16 Serial Remote Control units.

   RDCatch Issues.  Several issues with RDCatch have been corrected, including
   a race condition that could result in the system silently ignoring
   programmed events.

   Voice Tracker.  Several stability issues with the voice tracker module
   in RDLogEdit have been addressed.

Database Update:
   This version of Rivendell uses database schema version 186, and will
   automatically upgrade any earlier versions.  To see the current schema
   version prior to upgrade, see RDAdmin->SystemInfo.

   As always, be sure to run RDAdmin immediately after upgrading to allow 
   any necessary changes to the database schema to be applied.
