77 - gadfly backend now handles changes to the schema - but only one property
78 at a time
79 - cgi.client base URL is now obtained from the config TRACKER_WEB
80 - request.url has gone away - there's too much magic in trying to figure
81 what it should be
82 - cgi-bin script redirects to https now if the request was https
83 - FileClass "content" property wasn't being returned by getprops() in most
84 backends
85 - we now verify instance attributes on instance open and throw a useful error
86 if they're not all there
87 - sf 611217 ] menu() has problems when labelprop==None
88 - verify contents of tracker module when the tracker is opened
89 - many performance improvements in *dbm and sql backends

104 - handle stupid mailers that QUOTE their Re; 'Re: "[issue1] bla blah"'
105 - giving a user a Role that doesn't exist doesn't break stuff any more
106 - revamped user guide, customisation guide, added maintenance guide
107 - merge Zope Collector #538 fix from ZPT CVS trunk (path expressions with a
108 non-path final alternate no longer try to call a value returned by that
109 alternate)
110 - merge Zope Collector #573 fix from ZPT CVS trunk

133 Fixed:
134 - #576086 ] dumb copying mistake (frontends/ZRoundup.py)
135 - installation instructions now mention "python2" in "testing your python".

139 - fixed the date module so that Date(". - 2d") works
140 - web forms may now unset Link values (like assignedto)
141 - cleanup: moved roundup.templatebuilder to roundup.templates.builder
142 - instance __init__ no longer silently traps dbinit import errors
144 Feature:
145 - new backend for metakit (thanks Gordon McMillan)
146 - new backend for gadfly (it's as done as it's going to get)
147 - further split the dbm backends from the core code, allowing easier
148 non-dict-like backends (eg metakit, RDB)
149 - implemented and used the new access control mechanisms (Permissions, Roles)
150 (see doc/security.txt)
151 - switched templating to use Zope's PageTemplates (yay!)
152 - switched to sessions for web authentication
153 - added Boolean and Number types
154 - fixed the journal bloat
155 - updated design document for new access controls
156 - updated customisation document, including more examples
157 - entire database export and import (incl files)
158 - better mailgw help message (feature request #558562)
159 - re-enabled link backrefs from messages (feature request #568714)
160 - the page layout is now templatable
161 - re-worked cgi interface to abstract out the explicit "issue" interface
162 - have index page handle mid-page errors better so header and footer are
163 still visible
164 - we handle "not found", access and item page render errors better
165 - fixed double-submit by having new-item-submit redirect at end
166 - daemonify roundup-server (fork, logfile, pidfile)
167 - modify cgitb to display PageTemplate errors better
168 - rename to "instance" to "tracker"
169 - have roundup.cgi pick up tracker config from the environment
170 - revamped look and feel in web interface
171 - cleaned up stylesheet usage
172 - several bug fixes and documentation fixes
173 - added is_retired test to hyperdb.Class
174 - added capability to save queries:
175 - a query Class with name, klass (to search) and url (query string)
176 properties
177 - a Multilink to query on user called queries
178 - html templates for query, and a list of queries in user.item
179 - search form has Save button & name input
180 - saved queries put in menu in pagehead
181 - for migration, none of the above is required and old behavior preserved.
182 - showquery translates search form <-> query string
183 - cleaned up the indexer code:
184 - it splits more words out
185 - removed code we'll never use (roundup.roundup_indexer has the full
186 implementation, and replaces roundup.indexer)
187 - only index text/plain and rfc822/message (ideas for other text formats to
188 index are welcome)
189 - added simple unit test for indexer. Needs more tests for regression.
190 - all String properties may now be indexed too. Currently there's a bit of
191 "issue" specific code in the actual searching which needs to be
192 addressed. In a nutshell:
193 + pass 'indexme="yes"' as a String() property initialisation arg, eg:
194 file = FileClass(db, "file", name=String(), type=String(),
195 comment=String(indexme="yes"))
196 + the comment will then be indexed and be searchable, with the results
197 related back to the issue that the file is linked to
198 - as a result of this work, the FileClass has a default MIME type that may
199 be overridden in a subclass, or by the use of a "type" property as is
200 done in the default templates.
201 - the regeneration of the indexes (if necessary) is done once the schema is
202 set up in the dbinit.
203 - new "reindex" command in roundup-admin used to force regeneration of the
204 index
205 - added email display function - mangles email addrs so they're not so easily
206 scraped from the web
207 - switched to using a session-based web login
208 - made mailgw handle set and modify operations on multilinks (bug #579094)
209 - fixed the journal bloat from multilink changes - we just log the add or
210 remove operations, not the whole list
213 2002-06-24 0.4.2
214 Fixed:
215 - Cleaned up the hyperdb unit tests.
216 - Applied patch from Andrew W. Nosenko to give nicer Unauthorised message
217 when anonymous user tries to edit. Should've been applied in 0.4.2pr1. Oops.
218 - Added more detailed note to MIGRATION regarding the detectors changes.
221 2002-06-19 0.4.2pr1
222 Feature:
223 - added a "detectors" directory for people to put their useful auditors and
224 reactors in. Note - the roundupdb.IssueClass.sendmessage method has been
225 split and renamed "nosymessage" specifically for things like the nosy
226 reactor, and "send_message" which just sends the message.
227 - link() htmltemplate function now has a "showid" option for links and
228 multilinks. When true, it only displays the linked node id as the anchor
229 text. The link value is displayed as a tooltip using the title anchor
230 attribute.
231 To use in eg. the superseder field, have something like this:
232 <td>
233 <display call="field('superseder', showid=1)">
234 <display call="classhelp('issue', 'id,title', label='list', width=500)">
235 <property name="superseder">
236 <br>View: <display call="link('superseder', showid=1)">
237 </property>
238 </td>
239 - stripping of the email message body can now be controlled through the
240 config variables EMAIL_KEEP_QUOTED_TEXT and EMAIL_LEAVE_BODY_UNCHANGED.
241 - all database files created are now group readable and writable.
242 - added option to automatically add the authors and recipients of messages
243 to the nosy lists with the options ADD_AUTHOR_TO_NOSY (default 'new') and
244 ADD_RECIPIENTS_TO_NOSY (default 'new'). These settings emulate the current
245 behaviour. Setting them to 'yes' will add the author/recipients to the nosy
246 on messages that create issues and followup messages.
247 - reverting to dates for intervals > 2 months sucks
248 - changed the default message list in issues to display the message body
249 - applied patch #558876 ] cgi client customization
250 - split instance initialisation into two steps, allowing config changes
251 before the database is initialised.
252 - don't create an empty message on email issue creation if the email is empty
253 - may now display additional fields in Multilink form menus
254 - #541941 ] changing multilink properties by mail
255 - #526730 ] search for messages capability
256 - #505180 ] split MailGW.handle_Message
257 - also changed cgi client since it was duplicating the functionality
259 Fixed:
260 - stop sending blank (whitespace-only) notes
261 - cleanup of serialisation for database storage
262 - node ids are now generated from a lockable store - no more race conditions
263 - sorting was applied to all nodes of the MultiLink class instead of
264 to the nodes that are actually linked to in the "field" template
265 function. This adds about 20+ seconds in the display of an issue if
266 your database has a 1000 or more issues in it.
267 - added missing documentation for a few of the config option values
268 - file upload broke if you didn't supply a change note
269 - fixed SCRIPT_NAME in ZRoundup for instances not at top level of Zope
270 (thanks dman)
271 - fixed some sorting issues that were breaking some unit tests under py2.2
272 - mailgw test output dir was confusing the init test (but only on 2.2 *shrug*)
273 - node caching now works, and gives a small boost in performance
274 - #449374 ] re-enable bsddb3 backend
275 bsddb3 backend now works, reinstating
276 - #551483 ] assignedto in Client.make_index_link
277 - made backends.__init__ be more specific about which ImportErrors it really
278 wants to ignore
279 - fixed the example addresses in the templates to use correct example domains
280 - cleaned out the template stylesheets, removing a bunch of junk that really
281 wasn't necessary (font specs, styles never used) and added a style for
282 message content
283 - build htmlbase if tests are run using CVS checkout
284 - #565979 ] code error in hyperdb.Class.find
285 - #565996 ] The "Attach a File to this Issue" fails
286 - #564271 ] find() and new properties
287 - #562130 ] cookie path generated from ZRoundup was wrong in some situations
288 - remove CR characters embedded in messages (ZRoundup)
289 - properly quote the email address and "real name" in all situations using the
290 'email' module if it is available and 'rfc822' otherwise
291 - #565992 ] if ISSUE_TRACKER_WEB doesn't have the trailing '/', add it
292 - use the rfc822 module to ensure that every (oddball) email address and
293 real-name is properly quoted
294 - #558867 ] ZRoundup redirect /instance requests to /instance/
295 - #569415 ] {version}
296 - #569178 ] type error
297 was fixed as part of the general cleanup of reactors
300 2002-03-25 - 0.4.1
301 Feature:
302 - use blobfiles in back_anydbm which is used in back_bsddb.
303 change test_db as dirlist does not work for subdirectories.
304 ATTENTION: blobfiles now creates subdirectories for files.
305 - add module blobfiles in backends with file access functions.
306 - roundup db catch only IOError in getfile.
307 - roundup db catches retrieving not existing files.
308 - #503204 ] mailgw needs a default class
309 - partially done - the setting of additional properties can wait for a
310 better configuration system.
311 - Alternate email addresses are now available for users. See the MIGRATION
312 file for info on how to activate the feature.
313 - #511168 ] Web interface: Adding new products
314 Classes that don't provide template html get a default edit interface now:
315 - access using the admin "class list" interface
316 - limited to admin-only
317 - requires the csv module from object-craft (url given if it's missing)
318 - Added popup help for classes using the classhelp html template function.
319 - add <display call="classhelp('priority', 'id,name,description')">
320 to an item page, and it generates a link to a popup window which displays
321 the id, name and description for the priority class. The description
322 field won't exist in most installations, but it will be added to the
323 default templates.
324 - #517734 ] web header customisation is obscure
325 - All messages sent to the nosy list are now encoded as
326 quoted-printable before they are sent.
327 - Fixed display of mutlilink properties when using the template
328 functions, menu and plain.
330 Fixed:
331 - Clean up mail handling, multipart handling.
332 - respect encodings in non multipart messages.
333 - makeHtmlBase: re.sub under python 2.2 did not replace '.', string.replace
334 does it.
335 - preamble in tepmlateBuilder mentioned htmldata
336 - mailgw checks encoding on first part too.
337 - #511586 ] unittest FAIL: testReldate_date
338 - Added a uniquely Roundup header to email, "X-Roundup-Name"
339 - All forms now have "double-submit" protection when Javascript is enabled
340 on the client-side.
341 - #516883 ] mail interface + ANONYMOUS_REGISTER
342 - #516854 ] "My Issues" and redisplay
343 - #517906 ] Attribute order in "View customisation"
344 - #514854 ] History: "User" is always ticket creator
345 - wasn't handling cvs parser feeding correctly
346 - fixed some problems in date calculations (calendar.py doesn't handle over-
347 and under-flow). Also, hour/minute/second intervals may now be more than
348 99 each.
349 - #527416 ] roundup-admin uses undefined value
350 - #527503 ] unfriendly init blowup when parent dir
351 (also handles UsageError correctly now in init)
352 - #524129 ] roundup-admin gets python path wrong
355 2002-01-24 - 0.4.0
356 Feature:
357 - much nicer history display (actualy real handling of property types etc)
358 - journal entries for link and mutlilink properties can be switched on or
359 off
360 - properties in change note are now sorted
361 - you can now use the roundup-admin tool pack the database
363 Fixed:
364 - the mail gateway now responds with an error message when invalid values
365 for arguments are specified for link or mutlilink properties
366 - modified unit test to check nosy and assignedto when specified as arguments
367 - handle attachments with no name (eg tnef)
368 - fixed setting nosy as argument in subject line
369 - fixed back_bsddb so it passed the journal tests
370 - fixed status changes in mail gateway (eg. unread -> chatting)
371 - we'll actually distribute the frontends directory now, as advertised...
372 - handle stripping of "AW:" from subject line
373 - htmltemplate list() wasn't sorting...
374 - unit tests for html templating (and re-enabled the listbox field for
375 multilinks)
376 - allow abbreviation of "help" in admin tool too.
377 - run_tests testReldate_date failed if LANG is 'german'
378 - mailgw failures (unexpected ones) are forwarded to the roundup admin
381 2002-01-16 - 0.4.0b2
382 Fixed:
383 - #495392 ] empty nosy -patch
384 - #500574 ] messageid must have format <part1@part2>
385 - fixed some problems with web editing and change detection
386 - mail splitting wasn't detecting responses in the same "section" as quoted
387 text
388 - missed a "from i18n import _" in date.py
389 - #501690 ] MIGRATION.txt incomplete
390 - #502342 ] pipe interface
391 - #502437 ] rogue reactor and unittest
392 - re-enabled dumbdbm when using python >2.1.1 (ie 2.1.2, 2.2)
393 - changed all config accesses so they access either the instance or the
394 config attriubute on the db. This means that all config is obtained from
395 instance_config instead of the mish-mash of classes. This will make
396 switching to a ConfigParser setup easier too, I hope.
397 - #502951 ] adding new properties to old database
398 - #502953 ] nosy-like treatment of other multilinks
399 - #503164 ] create and passwords
400 - plain rendering of links in the htmltemplate now generate a hyperlink to
401 the linked node's page.
402 - #503330 ] ANONYMOUS_REGISTER now applies to mail
403 - #503353 ] setting properties in initial email
404 - #502956 ] filtering by multilink not supported
405 - #503340 ] creating issue with [asignedto=p.ohly]
406 - #502949 ] index view for non-issues and redisplay
407 - #503793 ] changing assignedto resets nosy list
408 - lots of date/interval related changes:
409 - more relaxed date format for input
410 - handle None for date/interval properties
413 2002-01-08 - 0.4.0b1
414 Feature:
415 - Added INSTANCE_NAME to configuration - used in web and email to identify
416 the instance.
417 - Added EMAIL_SIGNATURE_POSITION to indicate where to place the roundup
418 signature info in e-mails.
419 - Some more flexibility in the mail gateway and more error handling.
420 - Login now takes you to the page you back to the were denied access to.
421 - Admin user now can has a user index link on their web interface.
422 - We now have basic transaction support. Information is only written to
423 the database when the commit() method is called. Only the anydbm and
424 bsddb3 backends are modified in this way - the bsddb3 backend needs a
425 lot more work anyway...
426 - the CGI and mailgw automatically commit() at the end of processing a
427 single transaction
428 - the admin tool requires an explicit "commit" - it will prompt at exit
429 if there are unsaved changes. A "rollback" removes all changes made
430 during the session (up to the last commit).
431 - Added the "display" command to the admin tool - displays a node's values
432 - Message author's name appears in From: instead of roundup instance name
433 (which still appears in the Reply-To:)
434 - Added a Zope frontend for roundup.
435 - Centralised the python version check code, bumped version to 2.1.1 (really
436 needs to be 2.1.2, but that isn't released yet :)
437 - much better attaching of erroneous messages in the mail gateway
438 - #496356 ] Use threading in messages
439 This adds the tracking of messages by message-id and allows threading
440 using in-reply-to. Most e-mail clients support threading using this
441 feature, and we hope to add support for it to the web gateway.
443 Fixed:
444 - Lots of bugs, thanks Roché and others on the devel mailing list!
445 - login_action and newuser_action return values were being ignored
446 - Woohoo! Found that bloody re-login bug that was killing the mail
447 gateway.
448 - Fixed login/registration forwarding the user to the right page (or not,
449 on a failure)
450 - We now use weakrefs in the Classes to keep the database reference, so
451 the close() method on the database is no longer needed.
452 - #487480 ] roundup-server
453 - #487476 ] INSTALL.txt
454 - #489760 ] [issue] only subject
455 - fixed doc/index.html to include the quoting in the mail alias.
456 - fixed the backends __init__ so we can pydoc the backend modules
457 - web i/f reports "note added" if there are no changes but a note is entered
458 - we were assuming database files created by anydbm had the same name, but
459 this is not the case for dbm. We now perform a much better check _and_
460 cope with the anydbm implementation module changing too!
461 - envelope-from is now set to the roundup-admin and not roundup itself so
462 delivery reports aren't sent to roundup (thanks Patrick Ohly)
463 - #495400 ] entering blanks
464 Values with spaces are now accepted in roundup-admin - check the long help
465 for details.

474 - #473123 ] Change message generation for author
475 - MailGW now moves 'resolved' to 'chatting' on receiving e-mail for an issue.
476 - Added Structured Text rendering to htmltemplate, thanks Brad Clements.
477 - Added CGI configuration via env vars (see roundup.cgi for details)
478 - "roundup.cgi" is now installed to "<python-prefix>/share/roundup/cgi-bin"

486 - added dummy hooks for I18N and some preliminary (test) markup of
487 translatable messages
489 Fixed:
490 - Fixed a bug in HTMLTemplate changes.
491 - 'unread' to 'chatting' automagic status change was b0rken.
492 - Anonymous user lockout wasn't working.
493 - roundup-server now works on Windows, thanks Juergen Hermann.
494 - Fixed install documentation, also thanks Juergen Hermann.
495 - Fixed some URL issues in roundup.cgi, again thanks Juergen Hermann.
496 - bug #475347 ] WindowsError still not caught (patch from Juergen Hermann)
497 - bug #474749 ] indentations lost
498 - bug #477104 ] HTML tag error in roundup-server

508 - bad error report in hyperdb
509 - roundup.mailgw now handles errors on the set() and create() at the end
510 of processing
511 - roundup.mailgw also handles messages that are passed to it that don't
512 contain a From: line - apparently some POP servers can do this. It punts
513 an error message to the roundup admin.
514 - fixed nosy reaction and author copy handling
515 - errors in nosy reaction will be propogated now (were effectively being
516 squashed)
517 - re-open the database as the author in mail handling
518 - missing "return" in filter_section (thanks Roch'e Compaan)
521 2001-10-23 - 0.3.0 pre 3
522 Feature:
523 - MailGW now moves 'unread' to 'chatting' on receiving e-mail for an issue.
524 - feature #473127: Filenames. I modified the file.index and htmltemplate
525 source so that the filename is used in the link and the creation
526 information is displayed.
527 Admin Tool (roundup-admin):
528 - Interactive mode for running multiple (independant at present) commands.
529 - Tabular display of nodes.
530 - Import and export via colon-separated files.
532 Changed:
533 - re-organised the html templating code. Fixed some bugs, probably
534 introduced some more. Hopefully not too many.
536 Fixed:
537 - Stand-alone server now has a configurable setuid user.
538 - CGI interface wasn't handling checkboxes at all.
539 - Fixed quopri usage in mailgw from bug reports on mailing list.
540 - Remove the "freshen" command from the roundup-admin tool.
541 - Catch errors in login - no username or password supplied.
542 - Fixed editing of password (Password property type) thanks Roch'e Compaan.
543 - Fixed grouping of non-str properties thanks Roch'e Compaan.
544 - bug #473121: The customisation view and filters (CGI interface view
545 customisation section may now be hidden (patch from Roch'e Compaan.)
546 - bug #473122: Issue id sorting (hyperdb sorts strings-that-look-like-numbers
547 as numbers now.
548 - bug #473124: UI inconsistency with Link fields.
549 This also prompted me to fix a fairly long-standing usability issue -
550 that of being able to turn off certain filters.
551 - bug #473125: Paragraph in e-mails
552 - bug #473126: Sender unknown
553 - bug #473130: Nosy list not set correctly
556 2001-10-11 - 0.3.0 pre 2
557 Fixed:
558 - Hyperdatabase was inserting empty strings instead of None for missing
559 property values. This broke a lot of things.
562 2001-10-10 - 0.3.0 pre 1
563 Feature:
564 - roundup-admin create now prompts for property info if none is supplied
565 on the command-line.
566 - hyperdb Class getprops() method may now return only the mutable
567 properties.
568 - CGI interfaces now generate a top-level index of their known instances.
570 Changed:
571 - Login now uses cookies, which makes it a whole lot more flexible. We can
572 now support anonymous user access (read-only, unless there's an
573 "anonymous" user, in which case write access is permitted). Login
574 handling has been moved into cgi_client.Client.main()
575 - The "extended" schema is now the default in roundup init.
576 - The schemas have had their page headings modified to cope with the new
577 login handling. Existing installations should copy the interfaces.py
578 file from the roundup lib directory to their instance home.
579 - Passwords are now encoded by default (except exising databases which
580 will only be encoded when the passwords are changed). The scheme used
581 at the moment is SHA - but the code is flexible enough to take any
582 number of encoding systems.
583 - The roundup-admin tool always operates as the "admin" user now. Database
584 protection should be achieved using file system protections (see the
585 documentation for details.)
587 Fixed:
588 - Incorrectly had a Bizar Software copyright on the cgitb.py module from
589 Ping - has been removed.
590 - Pretty time interval wasn't handling > 1 month properly.
591 - Generation of links to Link/Multilink in indexes. (thanks Hubert Hoegl)
592 - AssignedTo wasn't in the "classic" schema's item page.
593 - Fixed a whole bunch of places in the CGI interface where we should have
594 been returning Not Found instead of throwing an exception.
595 - Fixed a deviation from the spec: trying to modify the 'id' property of
596 an item now throws an exception.
597 - The plain() template function now html-escapes the content.
598 - Change message was stuffing up for multilinks with no key property.
602 --------------
604 2001-08-30 - 0.2.8
605 Fixed:
606 - Wasn't handling unguessable mime types for file uploads.
607 - Missing import in mailgw.
610 2001-08-29 - 0.2.7
611 Feature:
612 - Text searches are now case insensitive. All forms of text search use
613 regular expressions now.
615 Fixed:
616 - Had another 2.1-ism in the unit tests
617 - Made the mail parser a little more robust w.r.t missing Subject:
618 (both thanks Mikhail Sobolev)
619 - Missed some isFooType usages (thanks Mikhail Sobolev for spotting them)
620 - Reverted back to sending change messages to the web editor of a node so
621 that the change note message is actually genrated.
622 - CGI interface wasn't generating correct change messages.
623 - Notes entered during a change are saved to the messages list even if
624 there's no nosy list. No message is generated if there's no nosy list and
625 there's no change note (since it would just duplicates the journal).
626 - Completely removed the bsddb3 module from the tests - will be reinstated
627 when the http://bsddb.sourceforge.net/'s bugs #439959 and #456408 are
628 dealt with. One is fixed in CVS, the other pending.
631 2001-08-08 - 0.2.6
632 Note:
633 - Roundup is now released under the same terms as the Python License.
635 Feature:
636 - Added tests for instance initialisation. No more releasing the software
637 with bugs in roundup.init!
638 - Now bundling unittest with the package so that python 2.0 users can use
639 the tests.
640 - Much better error handling and messages generated by the mail gateway.
642 Fixed:
643 - Implemented correct mail splitting. Added unit tests. Also snips
644 signatures now too.
645 - Bug #447671 - typo in roundup/init.py
646 - Changed date.Date to use regular string formatting instead of strftime -
647 win32 seems to have problems with %T and no hour... or something...
648 - Bug #448484 - now catching correct exception from makedirs.
649 - Instances are now opened by a special function that generates a unique
650 module name for the instances on import time.
653 2001-08-03 - 0.2.5
654 Note:
655 - The bsddb3 module has a bug that renders it non-functional. Users should
656 select the anydbm or bsddb backend instead.
658 Fixed:
659 - Python 2.0 does not contain the unittest module. The setup.py module now
660 checks for unittest before attempting to run the unit tests.
663 2001-08-03 - 0.2.4
664 Features:
665 - Added ability for cgi newblah forms to indicate that the new node
666 should be linked somewhere.
667 - Added time logging and file uploading to the templates.
668 - Added "My Issues" and "My Support" to extended template. Changed "Your
669 Details" to "My Details". Changed the "New Foo" links to "Add Foo".
670 Added links for unassigned support and issues. Generally reorganised and
671 cleanup the header up.
672 - Changed the order of the information in the message generated by web edits.
673 - Extended the range of intervals that are pretty-printed before actual dates
674 are displayed.
675 - Added more BUILD instructions including the "clean" command to force
676 rebuild.
677 - Web edit messages aren't sent to the person who did the edit any more. No
678 message is generated if they are the only person on the nosy list.
679 - Roundupdb now appends "mailing list" information to its messages which
680 include the e-mail address and web interface address. Templates may
681 override this in their db classes to include specific information (support
682 instructions, etc).
684 Fixed:
685 - Argument handling for the roundup-admin find command.
686 - Handling of summary when no note supplied for newblah. Again.
687 - Detection of no form in htmltemplate Field display.
688 - Checklist html template command was setting wrong name.
689 - 2.1-specific gmtime() (no arg) call in roundup.date. (thanks Paul Wright)
690 - mailgw was making naughty assumptions about the schema of the classes it
691 was creating nodes for.
692 - remove the $Foo$ from the HTML files stored in the htmlbase modules.
693 - Instance import now imports the instance using imp.load_module so that
694 we can have instance homes of "roundup" or other existing python package
695 names.
698 2001-07-30 - 0.2.3
699 Big change:
700 - I've split off the support class from the issue class in "extended".
701 Anyone who has any support entries, sorry. It should be possible to
702 write a scipt that moves the entries over pretty easily. If this causes
703 you pain, I'll do so. You'll want to update your instance with the new
704 code in "extended" either way.
706 Features:
707 - Added the unit tests to the start of setup.py so they're run whenever
708 we do anything distutils'y.
709 - Added nicer prompting to the roundup-admin "init" command.
710 - Actually, the roundup-admin code is totally revamped, and has command
711 help and better command-line arg handling.
712 - The cgi_client.Client base class now reflects the structure of "classic"
713 rather than "extended" since "classic" is more of a "base" template.
714 - Added more DB to test. Skips tests where imports fail.
716 Fixed:
717 - One of the tests in test_date had the wrong expected result.
718 - Fixed IssueClass so that superseders links to its classname rather than
719 hard-coded to "issue".
720 - templatebuilder was catching IOError instead of OSError.
721 - The cgi_client newblah method wasn't detecting the __note form field
722 properly.
723 - The History command in htmltemplate didn't handle a new node (None
724 nodeid) properly.
727 2001-07-29 - 0.2.2
728 Features:
729 - Added implementation.txt to the doc directory. Contains implementation
730 notes specific to this implementations of Roundup.
731 - Cleaned up mailgw some (subclass Message for getPart) and added some
732 tests for multipart splitting.
733 - Better checking for html dir in templatebuilder.
734 - Base hyperdb.Class now fakes the "id" property.
735 - Made the classic roundup look more like the original prototype.
736 - Made cgi_client and templating slightly more generic.
737 - Moved some code around in cgi_client allowing for subclassing to change
738 behaviour.
739 - Added the fabricated property "id" to all hyperdb classes.
740 - Cleanup of the link label generation (new method on hyperdb.Class to do
741 it).
743 Fixed:
744 - Everything uses errno module now to check errno values.
745 - New issue form handles lack of note better now.
746 - HTML templating uses section-bar style for index group headers now.
747 - Fixed problem in link display when Link value is None.
748 - Form handling in cgi client wasn't propogating through the previous
749 query elements.
750 - Fixed sort arguments generated for column headings so sorting can be
751 changed now.
754 2001-07-28 - 0.2.1
755 Features:
756 - Added docstring to roundup package so pydoc reports useful information.
757 - Added the roundup 1 software carpentry submission HTML to the doc
758 directory as "overview.html".
760 Fixes:
761 - Fixed bug in init command - templatebuilder was assuming existence of
762 "html" directory in instance home.
763 - Fixed INSTALL.txt to reflect some changes in the installation and test
764 procedure. Whatdya know, "setup.py install" does the script install.
765 There you go...
766 - Fixed some non-string node ids in cgi_client now that the hyperdb is
767 strict about such things.
769 2001-07-26 - 0.2.0
770 Features:
771 - Major reorganisation of code to allow multiple roundup instances and a
772 single, site-packages -based installation. Also allows multiple database
773 back-ends.
774 - Moved the bin/ proggies into the top dir, so that it all works
775 out-of-the-box
776 - Added the "classic" template - a direct implementation of the Roundup
777 spec. Well, as close as we're going to get, anyway.
778 - Added an issue priority of support to "extended"
779 - Added command-line arg handling to roundup-server so it's more useful
780 out-of-the-box.
781 - Added distutils-style installation of "lib" files.
782 - Added some unit tests.
784 Fixes:
785 - Fixed bug in re generation in the filter
786 - Fixed handling of None String property in grouped list headings
787 - Fixed adding new issue with no change note
788 - Fixed values in text input fields which contained quotes (") are now
789 quoted.
790 - Fixed a bug in the hyperdb filter - wrong variable names in the error
791 message.
793 2001-07-19 - 0.1.3
794 - Reldate now takes an argument "pretty" - when true, it pretty-prints the
795 interval generated up to 5 days, then pretty-prints the date of last
796 activity. The issue index and item now use the pretty format.
797 - Classes list for admin user in CGI interface.
798 - Made the view configuration more accessible, neater and more realistic.
799 - Fixed list view grouping handling grouping by a Multilink or String or Link
800 value of None or Date, ... (mind you, sorting by Date???)
801 - Fixed bug in the plain formatter when a Link was None.
802 - Fixed ordering of list view column headings.
803 - Fixed list view column heading sort links - and limited the number of
804 columns to sort by to 2.
805 - Added searching by glob to StringType filtering -
806 ^text - search for text at start of fields
807 text$ - search for text at end of fields
808 ^text$ - exactly match text in fields
809 te*xt - search for text matching "te"<any characters>"xt"
810 te?xt - search for text matching "te"<any one character>"xt"
811 - Added more fields to the issue.filter and issue.index templates
814 2001-07-18 - 0.1.2
815 - Set default index to ?:group=priority&:columns=activity,status,title so
816 the priority column isn't displayed.
817 - Thanks Anthony:
818 - added notes to the README about Python prerequisites
819 - added check to roundup.py, roundup.cgi, server.py and roundup-mailgw.py
820 for python 2+ - and made the file itself parseable by 1.5.2 ;)
821 - python 2.0 didn't have the default args for the time module functions.
822 - better handling of db directory in initDB
823 - Sorting on the extra properties defined by roundupdb classes was broken
824 due to the caching used. May now sort on activity and creation
825 properties, etc.
826 - Set the default index to sort on activity
829 2001-07-18 - 0.1.1
830 - Initial version release with consent of Roundup spec author, Ka-Ping Yee:
831 "Amazing! Nice work. I'll watch for the source code on your website."
833 2001-07-11 - 0.1.0
834 - Needed a bug tracking system. Looked around. Tried to install many
835 Perl-based systems, to no avail. Got tired of waiting for Roundup to be
836 released. Had just finished major product project, so needed something
837 different for a while. Roundup here I come...
