<li>Regattas now have an additional setting: "Control tracking from start and finish times."
With it, the start and finish times for a race as entered into the race log, e.g., through
the Race Management app, can be used by tracking connectors to control the tracking for
that race. So far, the TracTrac connector has been enabled. When a start time for a race
that race. So far, the TracTrac connector and the Smartphone connector have been
enabled. When a start time for a race
is received and the "Control..." flag is set, the tracking start time will be set to
five minutes before the race start time. Similarly, when the blue flag is lowered, signaling
that the race has finished, the tracking end time will be set to two minutes later.
This should make an operator's job easier when the race timing is maintained properly
through the race log, i.e., through the Race Management app.

In turn, for the Smartphone tracking connector, start/end tracking times are recorded
automatically upon start and stop tracking actions only if the regatta is <em>not</em>
marked as "Control tracking from start and finish times." Background: with this it is
possible to start tracking for a number of races scheduled for a day and having the
Race Management app control the tracking times automatically.

<li>The "start of tracking" property on a tracked race now has to be set to a valid, non-empty value
in order for fixed to be accepted into the race. As before, an empty "end of tracking" value
means an open-ended interval, and fixes at or after the start of tracking time point will then
continue to be accepted.
