63 - cgi-bin script redirects to https now if the request was https
64 - FileClass "content" property wasn't being returned by getprops() in most
65 backends
66 - we now verify instance attributes on instance open and throw a useful error

107 - added generic item editing
108 - much nicer layout of template rendering errors

113 2002-09-11 0.5.0 beta1
114 Fixed:
115 - #576086 ] dumb copying mistake (frontends/ZRoundup.py)
116 - installation instructions now mention "python2" in "testing your python".
117 - made the unit tests run again - they were quite b0rken

121 - web forms may now unset Link values (like assignedto)
122 - cleanup: moved roundup.templatebuilder to roundup.templates.builder
123 - instance __init__ no longer silently traps dbinit import errors
125 Feature:
126 - new backend for metakit (thanks Gordon McMillan)
127 - new backend for gadfly (it's as done as it's going to get)
128 - further split the dbm backends from the core code, allowing easier
129 non-dict-like backends (eg metakit, RDB)
130 - implemented and used the new access control mechanisms (Permissions, Roles)
131 (see doc/security.txt)
132 - switched templating to use Zope's PageTemplates (yay!)
133 - switched to sessions for web authentication
134 - added Boolean and Number types
135 - fixed the journal bloat
136 - updated design document for new access controls

138 - entire database export and import (incl files)
139 - better mailgw help message (feature request #558562)
140 - re-enabled link backrefs from messages (feature request #568714)
141 - the page layout is now templatable
142 - re-worked cgi interface to abstract out the explicit "issue" interface
143 - have index page handle mid-page errors better so header and footer are
144 still visible
145 - we handle "not found", access and item page render errors better
146 - fixed double-submit by having new-item-submit redirect at end
147 - daemonify roundup-server (fork, logfile, pidfile)
148 - modify cgitb to display PageTemplate errors better
149 - rename to "instance" to "tracker"
150 - have roundup.cgi pick up tracker config from the environment
151 - revamped look and feel in web interface
152 - cleaned up stylesheet usage
153 - several bug fixes and documentation fixes
154 - added is_retired test to hyperdb.Class
155 - added capability to save queries:
156 - a query Class with name, klass (to search) and url (query string)
157 properties
158 - a Multilink to query on user called queries
159 - html templates for query, and a list of queries in user.item
160 - search form has Save button & name input
161 - saved queries put in menu in pagehead
162 - for migration, none of the above is required and old behavior preserved.
163 - showquery translates search form <-> query string
164 - cleaned up the indexer code:
165 - it splits more words out
166 - removed code we'll never use (roundup.roundup_indexer has the full
167 implementation, and replaces roundup.indexer)
168 - only index text/plain and rfc822/message (ideas for other text formats to
169 index are welcome)
170 - added simple unit test for indexer. Needs more tests for regression.
171 - all String properties may now be indexed too. Currently there's a bit of
172 "issue" specific code in the actual searching which needs to be
173 addressed. In a nutshell:
174 + pass 'indexme="yes"' as a String() property initialisation arg, eg:
175 file = FileClass(db, "file", name=String(), type=String(),
176 comment=String(indexme="yes"))
177 + the comment will then be indexed and be searchable, with the results
178 related back to the issue that the file is linked to
179 - as a result of this work, the FileClass has a default MIME type that may
180 be overridden in a subclass, or by the use of a "type" property as is
181 done in the default templates.
182 - the regeneration of the indexes (if necessary) is done once the schema is
183 set up in the dbinit.
184 - new "reindex" command in roundup-admin used to force regeneration of the
185 index
186 - added email display function - mangles email addrs so they're not so easily
187 scraped from the web
188 - switched to using a session-based web login
189 - made mailgw handle set and modify operations on multilinks (bug #579094)
190 - fixed the journal bloat from multilink changes - we just log the add or
191 remove operations, not the whole list
194 2002-06-24 0.4.2
195 Fixed:
196 - Cleaned up the hyperdb unit tests.
197 - Applied patch from Andrew W. Nosenko to give nicer Unauthorised message
198 when anonymous user tries to edit. Should've been applied in 0.4.2pr1. Oops.
199 - Added more detailed note to MIGRATION regarding the detectors changes.
202 2002-06-19 0.4.2pr1
203 Feature:
204 - added a "detectors" directory for people to put their useful auditors and
205 reactors in. Note - the roundupdb.IssueClass.sendmessage method has been
206 split and renamed "nosymessage" specifically for things like the nosy
207 reactor, and "send_message" which just sends the message.
208 - link() htmltemplate function now has a "showid" option for links and
209 multilinks. When true, it only displays the linked node id as the anchor
210 text. The link value is displayed as a tooltip using the title anchor
211 attribute.
212 To use in eg. the superseder field, have something like this:
213 <td>
214 <display call="field('superseder', showid=1)">
215 <display call="classhelp('issue', 'id,title', label='list', width=500)">
216 <property name="superseder">
217 <br>View: <display call="link('superseder', showid=1)">
218 </property>
219 </td>
220 - stripping of the email message body can now be controlled through the
221 config variables EMAIL_KEEP_QUOTED_TEXT and EMAIL_LEAVE_BODY_UNCHANGED.
222 - all database files created are now group readable and writable.
223 - added option to automatically add the authors and recipients of messages
224 to the nosy lists with the options ADD_AUTHOR_TO_NOSY (default 'new') and
225 ADD_RECIPIENTS_TO_NOSY (default 'new'). These settings emulate the current
226 behaviour. Setting them to 'yes' will add the author/recipients to the nosy
227 on messages that create issues and followup messages.
228 - reverting to dates for intervals > 2 months sucks
229 - changed the default message list in issues to display the message body
230 - applied patch #558876 ] cgi client customization
231 - split instance initialisation into two steps, allowing config changes
232 before the database is initialised.
233 - don't create an empty message on email issue creation if the email is empty
234 - may now display additional fields in Multilink form menus
235 - #541941 ] changing multilink properties by mail
236 - #526730 ] search for messages capability
237 - #505180 ] split MailGW.handle_Message
238 - also changed cgi client since it was duplicating the functionality
240 Fixed:
241 - stop sending blank (whitespace-only) notes
242 - cleanup of serialisation for database storage
243 - node ids are now generated from a lockable store - no more race conditions
244 - sorting was applied to all nodes of the MultiLink class instead of
245 to the nodes that are actually linked to in the "field" template
246 function. This adds about 20+ seconds in the display of an issue if
247 your database has a 1000 or more issues in it.
248 - added missing documentation for a few of the config option values
249 - file upload broke if you didn't supply a change note
250 - fixed SCRIPT_NAME in ZRoundup for instances not at top level of Zope
251 (thanks dman)
252 - fixed some sorting issues that were breaking some unit tests under py2.2
253 - mailgw test output dir was confusing the init test (but only on 2.2 *shrug*)
254 - node caching now works, and gives a small boost in performance
255 - #449374 ] re-enable bsddb3 backend
256 bsddb3 backend now works, reinstating
257 - #551483 ] assignedto in Client.make_index_link
258 - made backends.__init__ be more specific about which ImportErrors it really
259 wants to ignore
260 - fixed the example addresses in the templates to use correct example domains
261 - cleaned out the template stylesheets, removing a bunch of junk that really
262 wasn't necessary (font specs, styles never used) and added a style for
263 message content
264 - build htmlbase if tests are run using CVS checkout
265 - #565979 ] code error in hyperdb.Class.find
266 - #565996 ] The "Attach a File to this Issue" fails
267 - #564271 ] find() and new properties
268 - #562130 ] cookie path generated from ZRoundup was wrong in some situations
269 - remove CR characters embedded in messages (ZRoundup)
270 - properly quote the email address and "real name" in all situations using the
271 'email' module if it is available and 'rfc822' otherwise
272 - #565992 ] if ISSUE_TRACKER_WEB doesn't have the trailing '/', add it
273 - use the rfc822 module to ensure that every (oddball) email address and
274 real-name is properly quoted
275 - #558867 ] ZRoundup redirect /instance requests to /instance/
276 - #569415 ] {version}
277 - #569178 ] type error
278 was fixed as part of the general cleanup of reactors
281 2002-03-25 - 0.4.1
282 Feature:
283 - use blobfiles in back_anydbm which is used in back_bsddb.
284 change test_db as dirlist does not work for subdirectories.
285 ATTENTION: blobfiles now creates subdirectories for files.
286 - add module blobfiles in backends with file access functions.
287 - roundup db catch only IOError in getfile.
288 - roundup db catches retrieving not existing files.
289 - #503204 ] mailgw needs a default class
290 - partially done - the setting of additional properties can wait for a
291 better configuration system.
292 - Alternate email addresses are now available for users. See the MIGRATION
293 file for info on how to activate the feature.
294 - #511168 ] Web interface: Adding new products
295 Classes that don't provide template html get a default edit interface now:
296 - access using the admin "class list" interface
297 - limited to admin-only
298 - requires the csv module from object-craft (url given if it's missing)
299 - Added popup help for classes using the classhelp html template function.
300 - add <display call="classhelp('priority', 'id,name,description')">
301 to an item page, and it generates a link to a popup window which displays
302 the id, name and description for the priority class. The description
303 field won't exist in most installations, but it will be added to the
304 default templates.
305 - #517734 ] web header customisation is obscure
306 - All messages sent to the nosy list are now encoded as
307 quoted-printable before they are sent.
308 - Fixed display of mutlilink properties when using the template
309 functions, menu and plain.
311 Fixed:
312 - Clean up mail handling, multipart handling.
313 - respect encodings in non multipart messages.
314 - makeHtmlBase: re.sub under python 2.2 did not replace '.', string.replace
315 does it.
316 - preamble in tepmlateBuilder mentioned htmldata
317 - mailgw checks encoding on first part too.
318 - #511586 ] unittest FAIL: testReldate_date
319 - Added a uniquely Roundup header to email, "X-Roundup-Name"
320 - All forms now have "double-submit" protection when Javascript is enabled
321 on the client-side.
322 - #516883 ] mail interface + ANONYMOUS_REGISTER
323 - #516854 ] "My Issues" and redisplay
324 - #517906 ] Attribute order in "View customisation"
325 - #514854 ] History: "User" is always ticket creator
326 - wasn't handling cvs parser feeding correctly
327 - fixed some problems in date calculations (calendar.py doesn't handle over-
328 and under-flow). Also, hour/minute/second intervals may now be more than
329 99 each.
330 - #527416 ] roundup-admin uses undefined value
331 - #527503 ] unfriendly init blowup when parent dir
332 (also handles UsageError correctly now in init)
333 - #524129 ] roundup-admin gets python path wrong
336 2002-01-24 - 0.4.0
337 Feature:
338 - much nicer history display (actualy real handling of property types etc)
339 - journal entries for link and mutlilink properties can be switched on or
340 off
341 - properties in change note are now sorted
342 - you can now use the roundup-admin tool pack the database
344 Fixed:
345 - the mail gateway now responds with an error message when invalid values
346 for arguments are specified for link or mutlilink properties
347 - modified unit test to check nosy and assignedto when specified as arguments
348 - handle attachments with no name (eg tnef)
349 - fixed setting nosy as argument in subject line
350 - fixed back_bsddb so it passed the journal tests
351 - fixed status changes in mail gateway (eg. unread -> chatting)
352 - we'll actually distribute the frontends directory now, as advertised...
353 - handle stripping of "AW:" from subject line
354 - htmltemplate list() wasn't sorting...
355 - unit tests for html templating (and re-enabled the listbox field for
356 multilinks)
357 - allow abbreviation of "help" in admin tool too.
358 - run_tests testReldate_date failed if LANG is 'german'
359 - mailgw failures (unexpected ones) are forwarded to the roundup admin
362 2002-01-16 - 0.4.0b2
363 Fixed:
364 - #495392 ] empty nosy -patch
365 - #500574 ] messageid must have format <part1@part2>
366 - fixed some problems with web editing and change detection
367 - mail splitting wasn't detecting responses in the same "section" as quoted
368 text
369 - missed a "from i18n import _" in date.py
370 - #501690 ] MIGRATION.txt incomplete
371 - #502342 ] pipe interface
372 - #502437 ] rogue reactor and unittest
373 - re-enabled dumbdbm when using python >2.1.1 (ie 2.1.2, 2.2)
374 - changed all config accesses so they access either the instance or the
375 config attriubute on the db. This means that all config is obtained from
376 instance_config instead of the mish-mash of classes. This will make
377 switching to a ConfigParser setup easier too, I hope.
378 - #502951 ] adding new properties to old database
379 - #502953 ] nosy-like treatment of other multilinks
380 - #503164 ] create and passwords
381 - plain rendering of links in the htmltemplate now generate a hyperlink to
382 the linked node's page.
383 - #503330 ] ANONYMOUS_REGISTER now applies to mail
384 - #503353 ] setting properties in initial email
385 - #502956 ] filtering by multilink not supported
386 - #503340 ] creating issue with [asignedto=p.ohly]
387 - #502949 ] index view for non-issues and redisplay
388 - #503793 ] changing assignedto resets nosy list
389 - lots of date/interval related changes:
390 - more relaxed date format for input
391 - handle None for date/interval properties
394 2002-01-08 - 0.4.0b1
395 Feature:
396 - Added INSTANCE_NAME to configuration - used in web and email to identify
397 the instance.
398 - Added EMAIL_SIGNATURE_POSITION to indicate where to place the roundup
399 signature info in e-mails.
400 - Some more flexibility in the mail gateway and more error handling.
401 - Login now takes you to the page you back to the were denied access to.
402 - Admin user now can has a user index link on their web interface.
403 - We now have basic transaction support. Information is only written to
404 the database when the commit() method is called. Only the anydbm and
405 bsddb3 backends are modified in this way - the bsddb3 backend needs a
406 lot more work anyway...
407 - the CGI and mailgw automatically commit() at the end of processing a
408 single transaction
409 - the admin tool requires an explicit "commit" - it will prompt at exit
410 if there are unsaved changes. A "rollback" removes all changes made
411 during the session (up to the last commit).
412 - Added the "display" command to the admin tool - displays a node's values
413 - Message author's name appears in From: instead of roundup instance name
414 (which still appears in the Reply-To:)
415 - Added a Zope frontend for roundup.
416 - Centralised the python version check code, bumped version to 2.1.1 (really
417 needs to be 2.1.2, but that isn't released yet :)
418 - much better attaching of erroneous messages in the mail gateway
419 - #496356 ] Use threading in messages
420 This adds the tracking of messages by message-id and allows threading
421 using in-reply-to. Most e-mail clients support threading using this
422 feature, and we hope to add support for it to the web gateway.
424 Fixed:
425 - Lots of bugs, thanks Roché and others on the devel mailing list!
426 - login_action and newuser_action return values were being ignored
427 - Woohoo! Found that bloody re-login bug that was killing the mail
428 gateway.
429 - Fixed login/registration forwarding the user to the right page (or not,
430 on a failure)
431 - We now use weakrefs in the Classes to keep the database reference, so
432 the close() method on the database is no longer needed.
433 - #487480 ] roundup-server
434 - #487476 ] INSTALL.txt
435 - #489760 ] [issue] only subject
436 - fixed doc/index.html to include the quoting in the mail alias.
437 - fixed the backends __init__ so we can pydoc the backend modules
438 - web i/f reports "note added" if there are no changes but a note is entered
439 - we were assuming database files created by anydbm had the same name, but
440 this is not the case for dbm. We now perform a much better check _and_
441 cope with the anydbm implementation module changing too!
442 - envelope-from is now set to the roundup-admin and not roundup itself so
443 delivery reports aren't sent to roundup (thanks Patrick Ohly)
444 - #495400 ] entering blanks
445 Values with spaces are now accepted in roundup-admin - check the long help
446 for details.
447 - #496360 ] table width does not work
448 - detectors were being registered multiple times
449 - added tests for mailgw
452 2001-11-23 - 0.3.0
453 Feature:
454 - #467129 ] Lossage when username=e-mail-address
455 - #473123 ] Change message generation for author
456 - MailGW now moves 'resolved' to 'chatting' on receiving e-mail for an issue.
457 - Added Structured Text rendering to htmltemplate, thanks Brad Clements.
458 - Added CGI configuration via env vars (see roundup.cgi for details)
459 - "roundup.cgi" is now installed to "<python-prefix>/share/roundup/cgi-bin"
460 - roundup-admin now accepts abbreviated commands (eg. l = li = lis = list)
461 - roundup-mailgw now supports unix mailbox and POP as sources of mail.
462 - roundup-admin now handles all hyperdb exceptions
463 - users may attach files to issues (and support in ext) through the web now
464 - incorporated patch from Roch'e Compaan implementing attachments in nosy
465 e-mail
466 - added a target version field to the extended issue schema
467 - added dummy hooks for I18N and some preliminary (test) markup of
468 translatable messages
470 Fixed:
471 - Fixed a bug in HTMLTemplate changes.
472 - 'unread' to 'chatting' automagic status change was b0rken.
473 - Anonymous user lockout wasn't working.
474 - roundup-server now works on Windows, thanks Juergen Hermann.
475 - Fixed install documentation, also thanks Juergen Hermann.
476 - Fixed some URL issues in roundup.cgi, again thanks Juergen Hermann.
477 - bug #475347 ] WindowsError still not caught (patch from Juergen Hermann)
478 - bug #474749 ] indentations lost
479 - bug #477104 ] HTML tag error in roundup-server
480 - bug #477107 ] HTTP header problem
481 - bug #477687 ] conforming html
482 - bug #474372 ] Netscape 4.77 do not render Support form
483 - bug #477685 ] base64.decodestring breaks
484 - bug #477837 ] lynx does not like the cookie
485 - bug #477892 ] Password edit doesn't fix login cookie
486 - newuser_action now presents error messages rather than tracebacks.
487 - bug #479511 ] mailgw to pop
488 - bug #479508 ] roundup-admin crash on wrong class
489 - bad error report in hyperdb
490 - roundup.mailgw now handles errors on the set() and create() at the end
491 of processing
492 - roundup.mailgw also handles messages that are passed to it that don't
493 contain a From: line - apparently some POP servers can do this. It punts
494 an error message to the roundup admin.
495 - fixed nosy reaction and author copy handling
496 - errors in nosy reaction will be propogated now (were effectively being
497 squashed)
498 - re-open the database as the author in mail handling
499 - missing "return" in filter_section (thanks Roch'e Compaan)
502 2001-10-23 - 0.3.0 pre 3
503 Feature:
504 - MailGW now moves 'unread' to 'chatting' on receiving e-mail for an issue.
505 - feature #473127: Filenames. I modified the file.index and htmltemplate
506 source so that the filename is used in the link and the creation
507 information is displayed.
508 Admin Tool (roundup-admin):
509 - Interactive mode for running multiple (independant at present) commands.
510 - Tabular display of nodes.
511 - Import and export via colon-separated files.
513 Changed:
514 - re-organised the html templating code. Fixed some bugs, probably
515 introduced some more. Hopefully not too many.
517 Fixed:
518 - Stand-alone server now has a configurable setuid user.
519 - CGI interface wasn't handling checkboxes at all.
520 - Fixed quopri usage in mailgw from bug reports on mailing list.
521 - Remove the "freshen" command from the roundup-admin tool.
522 - Catch errors in login - no username or password supplied.
523 - Fixed editing of password (Password property type) thanks Roch'e Compaan.
524 - Fixed grouping of non-str properties thanks Roch'e Compaan.
525 - bug #473121: The customisation view and filters (CGI interface view
526 customisation section may now be hidden (patch from Roch'e Compaan.)
527 - bug #473122: Issue id sorting (hyperdb sorts strings-that-look-like-numbers
528 as numbers now.
529 - bug #473124: UI inconsistency with Link fields.
530 This also prompted me to fix a fairly long-standing usability issue -
531 that of being able to turn off certain filters.
532 - bug #473125: Paragraph in e-mails
533 - bug #473126: Sender unknown
534 - bug #473130: Nosy list not set correctly
537 2001-10-11 - 0.3.0 pre 2
538 Fixed:
539 - Hyperdatabase was inserting empty strings instead of None for missing
540 property values. This broke a lot of things.
543 2001-10-10 - 0.3.0 pre 1
544 Feature:
545 - roundup-admin create now prompts for property info if none is supplied
546 on the command-line.
547 - hyperdb Class getprops() method may now return only the mutable
548 properties.
549 - CGI interfaces now generate a top-level index of their known instances.
551 Changed:
552 - Login now uses cookies, which makes it a whole lot more flexible. We can
553 now support anonymous user access (read-only, unless there's an
554 "anonymous" user, in which case write access is permitted). Login
555 handling has been moved into cgi_client.Client.main()
556 - The "extended" schema is now the default in roundup init.
557 - The schemas have had their page headings modified to cope with the new
558 login handling. Existing installations should copy the interfaces.py
559 file from the roundup lib directory to their instance home.
560 - Passwords are now encoded by default (except exising databases which
561 will only be encoded when the passwords are changed). The scheme used
562 at the moment is SHA - but the code is flexible enough to take any
563 number of encoding systems.
564 - The roundup-admin tool always operates as the "admin" user now. Database
565 protection should be achieved using file system protections (see the
566 documentation for details.)
568 Fixed:
569 - Incorrectly had a Bizar Software copyright on the cgitb.py module from
570 Ping - has been removed.
571 - Pretty time interval wasn't handling > 1 month properly.
572 - Generation of links to Link/Multilink in indexes. (thanks Hubert Hoegl)
573 - AssignedTo wasn't in the "classic" schema's item page.
574 - Fixed a whole bunch of places in the CGI interface where we should have
575 been returning Not Found instead of throwing an exception.
576 - Fixed a deviation from the spec: trying to modify the 'id' property of
577 an item now throws an exception.
578 - The plain() template function now html-escapes the content.
579 - Change message was stuffing up for multilinks with no key property.
583 --------------
585 2001-08-30 - 0.2.8
586 Fixed:
587 - Wasn't handling unguessable mime types for file uploads.
588 - Missing import in mailgw.
591 2001-08-29 - 0.2.7
592 Feature:
593 - Text searches are now case insensitive. All forms of text search use
594 regular expressions now.
596 Fixed:
597 - Had another 2.1-ism in the unit tests
598 - Made the mail parser a little more robust w.r.t missing Subject:
599 (both thanks Mikhail Sobolev)
600 - Missed some isFooType usages (thanks Mikhail Sobolev for spotting them)
601 - Reverted back to sending change messages to the web editor of a node so
602 that the change note message is actually genrated.
603 - CGI interface wasn't generating correct change messages.
604 - Notes entered during a change are saved to the messages list even if
605 there's no nosy list. No message is generated if there's no nosy list and
606 there's no change note (since it would just duplicates the journal).
607 - Completely removed the bsddb3 module from the tests - will be reinstated
608 when the http://bsddb.sourceforge.net/'s bugs #439959 and #456408 are
609 dealt with. One is fixed in CVS, the other pending.
612 2001-08-08 - 0.2.6
613 Note:
614 - Roundup is now released under the same terms as the Python License.
616 Feature:
617 - Added tests for instance initialisation. No more releasing the software
618 with bugs in roundup.init!
619 - Now bundling unittest with the package so that python 2.0 users can use
620 the tests.
621 - Much better error handling and messages generated by the mail gateway.
623 Fixed:
624 - Implemented correct mail splitting. Added unit tests. Also snips
625 signatures now too.
626 - Bug #447671 - typo in roundup/init.py
627 - Changed date.Date to use regular string formatting instead of strftime -
628 win32 seems to have problems with %T and no hour... or something...
629 - Bug #448484 - now catching correct exception from makedirs.
630 - Instances are now opened by a special function that generates a unique
631 module name for the instances on import time.
634 2001-08-03 - 0.2.5
635 Note:
636 - The bsddb3 module has a bug that renders it non-functional. Users should
637 select the anydbm or bsddb backend instead.
639 Fixed:
640 - Python 2.0 does not contain the unittest module. The setup.py module now
641 checks for unittest before attempting to run the unit tests.
644 2001-08-03 - 0.2.4
645 Features:
646 - Added ability for cgi newblah forms to indicate that the new node
647 should be linked somewhere.
648 - Added time logging and file uploading to the templates.
649 - Added "My Issues" and "My Support" to extended template. Changed "Your
650 Details" to "My Details". Changed the "New Foo" links to "Add Foo".
651 Added links for unassigned support and issues. Generally reorganised and
652 cleanup the header up.
653 - Changed the order of the information in the message generated by web edits.
654 - Extended the range of intervals that are pretty-printed before actual dates
655 are displayed.
656 - Added more BUILD instructions including the "clean" command to force
657 rebuild.
658 - Web edit messages aren't sent to the person who did the edit any more. No
659 message is generated if they are the only person on the nosy list.
660 - Roundupdb now appends "mailing list" information to its messages which
661 include the e-mail address and web interface address. Templates may
662 override this in their db classes to include specific information (support
663 instructions, etc).
665 Fixed:
666 - Argument handling for the roundup-admin find command.
667 - Handling of summary when no note supplied for newblah. Again.
668 - Detection of no form in htmltemplate Field display.
669 - Checklist html template command was setting wrong name.
670 - 2.1-specific gmtime() (no arg) call in roundup.date. (thanks Paul Wright)
671 - mailgw was making naughty assumptions about the schema of the classes it
672 was creating nodes for.
673 - remove the $Foo$ from the HTML files stored in the htmlbase modules.
674 - Instance import now imports the instance using imp.load_module so that
675 we can have instance homes of "roundup" or other existing python package
676 names.
679 2001-07-30 - 0.2.3
680 Big change:
681 - I've split off the support class from the issue class in "extended".
682 Anyone who has any support entries, sorry. It should be possible to
683 write a scipt that moves the entries over pretty easily. If this causes
684 you pain, I'll do so. You'll want to update your instance with the new
685 code in "extended" either way.
687 Features:
688 - Added the unit tests to the start of setup.py so they're run whenever
689 we do anything distutils'y.
690 - Added nicer prompting to the roundup-admin "init" command.
691 - Actually, the roundup-admin code is totally revamped, and has command
692 help and better command-line arg handling.
693 - The cgi_client.Client base class now reflects the structure of "classic"
694 rather than "extended" since "classic" is more of a "base" template.
695 - Added more DB to test. Skips tests where imports fail.
697 Fixed:
698 - One of the tests in test_date had the wrong expected result.
699 - Fixed IssueClass so that superseders links to its classname rather than
700 hard-coded to "issue".
701 - templatebuilder was catching IOError instead of OSError.
702 - The cgi_client newblah method wasn't detecting the __note form field
703 properly.
704 - The History command in htmltemplate didn't handle a new node (None
705 nodeid) properly.
708 2001-07-29 - 0.2.2
709 Features:
710 - Added implementation.txt to the doc directory. Contains implementation
711 notes specific to this implementations of Roundup.
712 - Cleaned up mailgw some (subclass Message for getPart) and added some
713 tests for multipart splitting.
714 - Better checking for html dir in templatebuilder.
715 - Base hyperdb.Class now fakes the "id" property.
716 - Made the classic roundup look more like the original prototype.
717 - Made cgi_client and templating slightly more generic.
718 - Moved some code around in cgi_client allowing for subclassing to change
719 behaviour.
720 - Added the fabricated property "id" to all hyperdb classes.
721 - Cleanup of the link label generation (new method on hyperdb.Class to do
722 it).
724 Fixed:
725 - Everything uses errno module now to check errno values.
726 - New issue form handles lack of note better now.
727 - HTML templating uses section-bar style for index group headers now.
728 - Fixed problem in link display when Link value is None.
729 - Form handling in cgi client wasn't propogating through the previous
730 query elements.
731 - Fixed sort arguments generated for column headings so sorting can be
732 changed now.
735 2001-07-28 - 0.2.1
736 Features:
737 - Added docstring to roundup package so pydoc reports useful information.
738 - Added the roundup 1 software carpentry submission HTML to the doc
739 directory as "overview.html".
741 Fixes:
742 - Fixed bug in init command - templatebuilder was assuming existence of
743 "html" directory in instance home.
744 - Fixed INSTALL.txt to reflect some changes in the installation and test
745 procedure. Whatdya know, "setup.py install" does the script install.
746 There you go...
747 - Fixed some non-string node ids in cgi_client now that the hyperdb is
748 strict about such things.
750 2001-07-26 - 0.2.0
751 Features:
752 - Major reorganisation of code to allow multiple roundup instances and a
753 single, site-packages -based installation. Also allows multiple database
754 back-ends.
755 - Moved the bin/ proggies into the top dir, so that it all works
756 out-of-the-box
757 - Added the "classic" template - a direct implementation of the Roundup
758 spec. Well, as close as we're going to get, anyway.
759 - Added an issue priority of support to "extended"
760 - Added command-line arg handling to roundup-server so it's more useful
761 out-of-the-box.
762 - Added distutils-style installation of "lib" files.
763 - Added some unit tests.
765 Fixes:
766 - Fixed bug in re generation in the filter
767 - Fixed handling of None String property in grouped list headings
768 - Fixed adding new issue with no change note
769 - Fixed values in text input fields which contained quotes (") are now
770 quoted.
771 - Fixed a bug in the hyperdb filter - wrong variable names in the error
772 message.
774 2001-07-19 - 0.1.3
775 - Reldate now takes an argument "pretty" - when true, it pretty-prints the
776 interval generated up to 5 days, then pretty-prints the date of last
777 activity. The issue index and item now use the pretty format.
778 - Classes list for admin user in CGI interface.
779 - Made the view configuration more accessible, neater and more realistic.
780 - Fixed list view grouping handling grouping by a Multilink or String or Link
781 value of None or Date, ... (mind you, sorting by Date???)
782 - Fixed bug in the plain formatter when a Link was None.
783 - Fixed ordering of list view column headings.
784 - Fixed list view column heading sort links - and limited the number of
785 columns to sort by to 2.
786 - Added searching by glob to StringType filtering -
787 ^text - search for text at start of fields
788 text$ - search for text at end of fields
789 ^text$ - exactly match text in fields
790 te*xt - search for text matching "te"<any characters>"xt"
791 te?xt - search for text matching "te"<any one character>"xt"
792 - Added more fields to the issue.filter and issue.index templates
795 2001-07-18 - 0.1.2
796 - Set default index to ?:group=priority&:columns=activity,status,title so
797 the priority column isn't displayed.
798 - Thanks Anthony:
799 - added notes to the README about Python prerequisites
800 - added check to roundup.py, roundup.cgi, server.py and roundup-mailgw.py
801 for python 2+ - and made the file itself parseable by 1.5.2 ;)
802 - python 2.0 didn't have the default args for the time module functions.
803 - better handling of db directory in initDB
804 - Sorting on the extra properties defined by roundupdb classes was broken
805 due to the caching used. May now sort on activity and creation
806 properties, etc.
807 - Set the default index to sort on activity
810 2001-07-18 - 0.1.1
811 - Initial version release with consent of Roundup spec author, Ka-Ping Yee:
812 "Amazing! Nice work. I'll watch for the source code on your website."
814 2001-07-11 - 0.1.0
815 - Needed a bug tracking system. Looked around. Tried to install many
816 Perl-based systems, to no avail. Got tired of waiting for Roundup to be
817 released. Had just finished major product project, so needed something
818 different for a while. Roundup here I come...
