 ===== History =====
+  * 2015-10-19: An EOI flag was added to the header, using one of the previously reserved bits. This bit should be set to 0 except on the final packet for the current image.
   * Some final changes made to the format 2012-03-04. Images produced with this version of the encoder will be compatible with all future decoders.
