129 backends

131 if they're not all there

133 - verify contents of tracker module when the tracker is opened
134 - many performance improvements in *dbm and sql backends

178 Fixed:
179 - #576086 ] dumb copying mistake (frontends/ZRoundup.py)

186 - cleanup: moved roundup.templatebuilder to roundup.templates.builder
187 - instance __init__ no longer silently traps dbinit import errors
189 Feature:
190 - new backend for metakit (thanks Gordon McMillan)
191 - new backend for gadfly (it's as done as it's going to get)
192 - further split the dbm backends from the core code, allowing easier
193 non-dict-like backends (eg metakit, RDB)
194 - implemented and used the new access control mechanisms (Permissions, Roles)
195 (see doc/security.txt)
196 - switched templating to use Zope's PageTemplates (yay!)
197 - switched to sessions for web authentication
198 - added Boolean and Number types
199 - fixed the journal bloat
200 - updated design document for new access controls

205 - the page layout is now templatable
206 - re-worked cgi interface to abstract out the explicit "issue" interface
207 - have index page handle mid-page errors better so header and footer are
208 still visible
209 - we handle "not found", access and item page render errors better
210 - fixed double-submit by having new-item-submit redirect at end
211 - daemonify roundup-server (fork, logfile, pidfile)
212 - modify cgitb to display PageTemplate errors better
213 - rename to "instance" to "tracker"
214 - have roundup.cgi pick up tracker config from the environment
215 - revamped look and feel in web interface
216 - cleaned up stylesheet usage
217 - several bug fixes and documentation fixes
218 - added is_retired test to hyperdb.Class
219 - added capability to save queries:
220 - a query Class with name, klass (to search) and url (query string)
221 properties
222 - a Multilink to query on user called queries
223 - html templates for query, and a list of queries in user.item
224 - search form has Save button & name input
225 - saved queries put in menu in pagehead
226 - for migration, none of the above is required and old behavior preserved.
227 - showquery translates search form <-> query string
228 - cleaned up the indexer code:
229 - it splits more words out
230 - removed code we'll never use (roundup.roundup_indexer has the full
231 implementation, and replaces roundup.indexer)
232 - only index text/plain and rfc822/message (ideas for other text formats to
233 index are welcome)
234 - added simple unit test for indexer. Needs more tests for regression.
235 - all String properties may now be indexed too. Currently there's a bit of
236 "issue" specific code in the actual searching which needs to be
237 addressed. In a nutshell:
238 + pass 'indexme="yes"' as a String() property initialisation arg, eg:
239 file = FileClass(db, "file", name=String(), type=String(),
240 comment=String(indexme="yes"))
241 + the comment will then be indexed and be searchable, with the results
242 related back to the issue that the file is linked to
243 - as a result of this work, the FileClass has a default MIME type that may
244 be overridden in a subclass, or by the use of a "type" property as is
245 done in the default templates.
246 - the regeneration of the indexes (if necessary) is done once the schema is
247 set up in the dbinit.
248 - new "reindex" command in roundup-admin used to force regeneration of the
249 index
250 - added email display function - mangles email addrs so they're not so easily
251 scraped from the web
252 - switched to using a session-based web login
253 - made mailgw handle set and modify operations on multilinks (bug #579094)
254 - fixed the journal bloat from multilink changes - we just log the add or
255 remove operations, not the whole list
258 2002-06-24 0.4.2
259 Fixed:
260 - Cleaned up the hyperdb unit tests.
261 - Applied patch from Andrew W. Nosenko to give nicer Unauthorised message
262 when anonymous user tries to edit. Should've been applied in 0.4.2pr1. Oops.
263 - Added more detailed note to MIGRATION regarding the detectors changes.
266 2002-06-19 0.4.2pr1
267 Feature:
268 - added a "detectors" directory for people to put their useful auditors and
269 reactors in. Note - the roundupdb.IssueClass.sendmessage method has been
270 split and renamed "nosymessage" specifically for things like the nosy
271 reactor, and "send_message" which just sends the message.
272 - link() htmltemplate function now has a "showid" option for links and
273 multilinks. When true, it only displays the linked node id as the anchor
274 text. The link value is displayed as a tooltip using the title anchor
275 attribute.
276 To use in eg. the superseder field, have something like this:
277 <td>
278 <display call="field('superseder', showid=1)">
279 <display call="classhelp('issue', 'id,title', label='list', width=500)">
280 <property name="superseder">
281 <br>View: <display call="link('superseder', showid=1)">
282 </property>
283 </td>
284 - stripping of the email message body can now be controlled through the
285 config variables EMAIL_KEEP_QUOTED_TEXT and EMAIL_LEAVE_BODY_UNCHANGED.
286 - all database files created are now group readable and writable.
287 - added option to automatically add the authors and recipients of messages
288 to the nosy lists with the options ADD_AUTHOR_TO_NOSY (default 'new') and
289 ADD_RECIPIENTS_TO_NOSY (default 'new'). These settings emulate the current
290 behaviour. Setting them to 'yes' will add the author/recipients to the nosy
291 on messages that create issues and followup messages.
292 - reverting to dates for intervals > 2 months sucks
293 - changed the default message list in issues to display the message body
294 - applied patch #558876 ] cgi client customization
295 - split instance initialisation into two steps, allowing config changes
296 before the database is initialised.
297 - don't create an empty message on email issue creation if the email is empty
298 - may now display additional fields in Multilink form menus
299 - #541941 ] changing multilink properties by mail
300 - #526730 ] search for messages capability
301 - #505180 ] split MailGW.handle_Message
302 - also changed cgi client since it was duplicating the functionality
304 Fixed:
305 - stop sending blank (whitespace-only) notes
306 - cleanup of serialisation for database storage
307 - node ids are now generated from a lockable store - no more race conditions
308 - sorting was applied to all nodes of the MultiLink class instead of
309 to the nodes that are actually linked to in the "field" template
310 function. This adds about 20+ seconds in the display of an issue if
311 your database has a 1000 or more issues in it.
312 - added missing documentation for a few of the config option values
313 - file upload broke if you didn't supply a change note
314 - fixed SCRIPT_NAME in ZRoundup for instances not at top level of Zope
315 (thanks dman)
316 - fixed some sorting issues that were breaking some unit tests under py2.2
317 - mailgw test output dir was confusing the init test (but only on 2.2 *shrug*)
318 - node caching now works, and gives a small boost in performance
319 - #449374 ] re-enable bsddb3 backend
320 bsddb3 backend now works, reinstating
321 - #551483 ] assignedto in Client.make_index_link
322 - made backends.__init__ be more specific about which ImportErrors it really
323 wants to ignore
324 - fixed the example addresses in the templates to use correct example domains
325 - cleaned out the template stylesheets, removing a bunch of junk that really
326 wasn't necessary (font specs, styles never used) and added a style for
327 message content
328 - build htmlbase if tests are run using CVS checkout
329 - #565979 ] code error in hyperdb.Class.find
330 - #565996 ] The "Attach a File to this Issue" fails
331 - #564271 ] find() and new properties
332 - #562130 ] cookie path generated from ZRoundup was wrong in some situations
333 - remove CR characters embedded in messages (ZRoundup)
334 - properly quote the email address and "real name" in all situations using the
335 'email' module if it is available and 'rfc822' otherwise
336 - #565992 ] if ISSUE_TRACKER_WEB doesn't have the trailing '/', add it
337 - use the rfc822 module to ensure that every (oddball) email address and
338 real-name is properly quoted
339 - #558867 ] ZRoundup redirect /instance requests to /instance/
340 - #569415 ] {version}
341 - #569178 ] type error
342 was fixed as part of the general cleanup of reactors
345 2002-03-25 - 0.4.1
346 Feature:
347 - use blobfiles in back_anydbm which is used in back_bsddb.
348 change test_db as dirlist does not work for subdirectories.
349 ATTENTION: blobfiles now creates subdirectories for files.
350 - add module blobfiles in backends with file access functions.
351 - roundup db catch only IOError in getfile.
352 - roundup db catches retrieving not existing files.
353 - #503204 ] mailgw needs a default class
354 - partially done - the setting of additional properties can wait for a
355 better configuration system.
356 - Alternate email addresses are now available for users. See the MIGRATION
357 file for info on how to activate the feature.
358 - #511168 ] Web interface: Adding new products
359 Classes that don't provide template html get a default edit interface now:
360 - access using the admin "class list" interface
361 - limited to admin-only
362 - requires the csv module from object-craft (url given if it's missing)
363 - Added popup help for classes using the classhelp html template function.
364 - add <display call="classhelp('priority', 'id,name,description')">
365 to an item page, and it generates a link to a popup window which displays
366 the id, name and description for the priority class. The description
367 field won't exist in most installations, but it will be added to the
368 default templates.
369 - #517734 ] web header customisation is obscure
370 - All messages sent to the nosy list are now encoded as
371 quoted-printable before they are sent.
372 - Fixed display of mutlilink properties when using the template
373 functions, menu and plain.
375 Fixed:
376 - Clean up mail handling, multipart handling.
377 - respect encodings in non multipart messages.
378 - makeHtmlBase: re.sub under python 2.2 did not replace '.', string.replace
379 does it.
380 - preamble in tepmlateBuilder mentioned htmldata
381 - mailgw checks encoding on first part too.
382 - #511586 ] unittest FAIL: testReldate_date
383 - Added a uniquely Roundup header to email, "X-Roundup-Name"
384 - All forms now have "double-submit" protection when Javascript is enabled

387 - #516854 ] "My Issues" and redisplay
388 - #517906 ] Attribute order in "View customisation"
389 - #514854 ] History: "User" is always ticket creator
390 - wasn't handling cvs parser feeding correctly
391 - fixed some problems in date calculations (calendar.py doesn't handle over-
392 and under-flow). Also, hour/minute/second intervals may now be more than
393 99 each.
394 - #527416 ] roundup-admin uses undefined value
395 - #527503 ] unfriendly init blowup when parent dir
396 (also handles UsageError correctly now in init)
397 - #524129 ] roundup-admin gets python path wrong

420 multilinks)
421 - allow abbreviation of "help" in admin tool too.
422 - run_tests testReldate_date failed if LANG is 'german'

465 - Login now takes you to the page you back to the were denied access to.
466 - Admin user now can has a user index link on their web interface.
467 - We now have basic transaction support. Information is only written to
468 the database when the commit() method is called. Only the anydbm and
469 bsddb3 backends are modified in this way - the bsddb3 backend needs a
470 lot more work anyway...
471 - the CGI and mailgw automatically commit() at the end of processing a
472 single transaction
473 - the admin tool requires an explicit "commit" - it will prompt at exit
474 if there are unsaved changes. A "rollback" removes all changes made
475 during the session (up to the last commit).
476 - Added the "display" command to the admin tool - displays a node's values
477 - Message author's name appears in From: instead of roundup instance name
478 (which still appears in the Reply-To:)
479 - Added a Zope frontend for roundup.
480 - Centralised the python version check code, bumped version to 2.1.1 (really
481 needs to be 2.1.2, but that isn't released yet :)
482 - much better attaching of erroneous messages in the mail gateway
483 - #496356 ] Use threading in messages
484 This adds the tracking of messages by message-id and allows threading
485 using in-reply-to. Most e-mail clients support threading using this
486 feature, and we hope to add support for it to the web gateway.
488 Fixed:
489 - Lots of bugs, thanks Roché and others on the devel mailing list!
490 - login_action and newuser_action return values were being ignored
491 - Woohoo! Found that bloody re-login bug that was killing the mail
492 gateway.
493 - Fixed login/registration forwarding the user to the right page (or not,
494 on a failure)
495 - We now use weakrefs in the Classes to keep the database reference, so
496 the close() method on the database is no longer needed.
497 - #487480 ] roundup-server
498 - #487476 ] INSTALL.txt
499 - #489760 ] [issue] only subject
500 - fixed doc/index.html to include the quoting in the mail alias.
501 - fixed the backends __init__ so we can pydoc the backend modules
502 - web i/f reports "note added" if there are no changes but a note is entered
503 - we were assuming database files created by anydbm had the same name, but
504 this is not the case for dbm. We now perform a much better check _and_
505 cope with the anydbm implementation module changing too!
506 - envelope-from is now set to the roundup-admin and not roundup itself so
507 delivery reports aren't sent to roundup (thanks Patrick Ohly)
508 - #495400 ] entering blanks
509 Values with spaces are now accepted in roundup-admin - check the long help
510 for details.
511 - #496360 ] table width does not work
512 - detectors were being registered multiple times
513 - added tests for mailgw
516 2001-11-23 - 0.3.0
517 Feature:
518 - #467129 ] Lossage when username=e-mail-address
519 - #473123 ] Change message generation for author
520 - MailGW now moves 'resolved' to 'chatting' on receiving e-mail for an issue.
521 - Added Structured Text rendering to htmltemplate, thanks Brad Clements.
522 - Added CGI configuration via env vars (see roundup.cgi for details)
523 - "roundup.cgi" is now installed to "<python-prefix>/share/roundup/cgi-bin"
524 - roundup-admin now accepts abbreviated commands (eg. l = li = lis = list)
525 - roundup-mailgw now supports unix mailbox and POP as sources of mail.
526 - roundup-admin now handles all hyperdb exceptions
527 - users may attach files to issues (and support in ext) through the web now
528 - incorporated patch from Roch'e Compaan implementing attachments in nosy
529 e-mail
530 - added a target version field to the extended issue schema
531 - added dummy hooks for I18N and some preliminary (test) markup of
532 translatable messages
534 Fixed:
535 - Fixed a bug in HTMLTemplate changes.
536 - 'unread' to 'chatting' automagic status change was b0rken.
537 - Anonymous user lockout wasn't working.
538 - roundup-server now works on Windows, thanks Juergen Hermann.
539 - Fixed install documentation, also thanks Juergen Hermann.
540 - Fixed some URL issues in roundup.cgi, again thanks Juergen Hermann.
541 - bug #475347 ] WindowsError still not caught (patch from Juergen Hermann)
542 - bug #474749 ] indentations lost
543 - bug #477104 ] HTML tag error in roundup-server
544 - bug #477107 ] HTTP header problem
545 - bug #477687 ] conforming html
546 - bug #474372 ] Netscape 4.77 do not render Support form
547 - bug #477685 ] base64.decodestring breaks
548 - bug #477837 ] lynx does not like the cookie
549 - bug #477892 ] Password edit doesn't fix login cookie
550 - newuser_action now presents error messages rather than tracebacks.
551 - bug #479511 ] mailgw to pop
552 - bug #479508 ] roundup-admin crash on wrong class
553 - bad error report in hyperdb
554 - roundup.mailgw now handles errors on the set() and create() at the end
555 of processing
556 - roundup.mailgw also handles messages that are passed to it that don't
557 contain a From: line - apparently some POP servers can do this. It punts
558 an error message to the roundup admin.
559 - fixed nosy reaction and author copy handling
560 - errors in nosy reaction will be propogated now (were effectively being
561 squashed)
562 - re-open the database as the author in mail handling
563 - missing "return" in filter_section (thanks Roch'e Compaan)
566 2001-10-23 - 0.3.0 pre 3
567 Feature:
568 - MailGW now moves 'unread' to 'chatting' on receiving e-mail for an issue.
569 - feature #473127: Filenames. I modified the file.index and htmltemplate
570 source so that the filename is used in the link and the creation
571 information is displayed.
572 Admin Tool (roundup-admin):
573 - Interactive mode for running multiple (independant at present) commands.
574 - Tabular display of nodes.
575 - Import and export via colon-separated files.
577 Changed:
578 - re-organised the html templating code. Fixed some bugs, probably
579 introduced some more. Hopefully not too many.
581 Fixed:
582 - Stand-alone server now has a configurable setuid user.
583 - CGI interface wasn't handling checkboxes at all.
584 - Fixed quopri usage in mailgw from bug reports on mailing list.
585 - Remove the "freshen" command from the roundup-admin tool.
586 - Catch errors in login - no username or password supplied.
587 - Fixed editing of password (Password property type) thanks Roch'e Compaan.
588 - Fixed grouping of non-str properties thanks Roch'e Compaan.
589 - bug #473121: The customisation view and filters (CGI interface view
590 customisation section may now be hidden (patch from Roch'e Compaan.)
591 - bug #473122: Issue id sorting (hyperdb sorts strings-that-look-like-numbers
592 as numbers now.
593 - bug #473124: UI inconsistency with Link fields.
594 This also prompted me to fix a fairly long-standing usability issue -
595 that of being able to turn off certain filters.
596 - bug #473125: Paragraph in e-mails
597 - bug #473126: Sender unknown
598 - bug #473130: Nosy list not set correctly
601 2001-10-11 - 0.3.0 pre 2
602 Fixed:
603 - Hyperdatabase was inserting empty strings instead of None for missing
604 property values. This broke a lot of things.
607 2001-10-10 - 0.3.0 pre 1
608 Feature:
609 - roundup-admin create now prompts for property info if none is supplied
610 on the command-line.
611 - hyperdb Class getprops() method may now return only the mutable
612 properties.
613 - CGI interfaces now generate a top-level index of their known instances.
615 Changed:
616 - Login now uses cookies, which makes it a whole lot more flexible. We can
617 now support anonymous user access (read-only, unless there's an
618 "anonymous" user, in which case write access is permitted). Login
619 handling has been moved into cgi_client.Client.main()
620 - The "extended" schema is now the default in roundup init.
621 - The schemas have had their page headings modified to cope with the new
622 login handling. Existing installations should copy the interfaces.py
623 file from the roundup lib directory to their instance home.
624 - Passwords are now encoded by default (except exising databases which
625 will only be encoded when the passwords are changed). The scheme used
626 at the moment is SHA - but the code is flexible enough to take any
627 number of encoding systems.
628 - The roundup-admin tool always operates as the "admin" user now. Database
629 protection should be achieved using file system protections (see the
630 documentation for details.)
632 Fixed:
633 - Incorrectly had a Bizar Software copyright on the cgitb.py module from
634 Ping - has been removed.
635 - Pretty time interval wasn't handling > 1 month properly.
636 - Generation of links to Link/Multilink in indexes. (thanks Hubert Hoegl)
637 - AssignedTo wasn't in the "classic" schema's item page.
638 - Fixed a whole bunch of places in the CGI interface where we should have
639 been returning Not Found instead of throwing an exception.
640 - Fixed a deviation from the spec: trying to modify the 'id' property of
641 an item now throws an exception.
642 - The plain() template function now html-escapes the content.
643 - Change message was stuffing up for multilinks with no key property.
647 --------------
649 2001-08-30 - 0.2.8
650 Fixed:
651 - Wasn't handling unguessable mime types for file uploads.
652 - Missing import in mailgw.
655 2001-08-29 - 0.2.7
656 Feature:
657 - Text searches are now case insensitive. All forms of text search use
658 regular expressions now.
660 Fixed:
661 - Had another 2.1-ism in the unit tests
662 - Made the mail parser a little more robust w.r.t missing Subject:
663 (both thanks Mikhail Sobolev)
664 - Missed some isFooType usages (thanks Mikhail Sobolev for spotting them)
665 - Reverted back to sending change messages to the web editor of a node so
666 that the change note message is actually genrated.
667 - CGI interface wasn't generating correct change messages.
668 - Notes entered during a change are saved to the messages list even if
669 there's no nosy list. No message is generated if there's no nosy list and
670 there's no change note (since it would just duplicates the journal).
671 - Completely removed the bsddb3 module from the tests - will be reinstated
672 when the http://bsddb.sourceforge.net/'s bugs #439959 and #456408 are
673 dealt with. One is fixed in CVS, the other pending.
676 2001-08-08 - 0.2.6
677 Note:
678 - Roundup is now released under the same terms as the Python License.
680 Feature:
681 - Added tests for instance initialisation. No more releasing the software
682 with bugs in roundup.init!
683 - Now bundling unittest with the package so that python 2.0 users can use
684 the tests.
685 - Much better error handling and messages generated by the mail gateway.
687 Fixed:
688 - Implemented correct mail splitting. Added unit tests. Also snips
689 signatures now too.
690 - Bug #447671 - typo in roundup/init.py
691 - Changed date.Date to use regular string formatting instead of strftime -
692 win32 seems to have problems with %T and no hour... or something...
693 - Bug #448484 - now catching correct exception from makedirs.
694 - Instances are now opened by a special function that generates a unique
695 module name for the instances on import time.
698 2001-08-03 - 0.2.5
699 Note:
700 - The bsddb3 module has a bug that renders it non-functional. Users should
701 select the anydbm or bsddb backend instead.
703 Fixed:
704 - Python 2.0 does not contain the unittest module. The setup.py module now
705 checks for unittest before attempting to run the unit tests.
708 2001-08-03 - 0.2.4
709 Features:
710 - Added ability for cgi newblah forms to indicate that the new node
711 should be linked somewhere.
712 - Added time logging and file uploading to the templates.
713 - Added "My Issues" and "My Support" to extended template. Changed "Your
714 Details" to "My Details". Changed the "New Foo" links to "Add Foo".
715 Added links for unassigned support and issues. Generally reorganised and
716 cleanup the header up.
717 - Changed the order of the information in the message generated by web edits.
718 - Extended the range of intervals that are pretty-printed before actual dates
719 are displayed.
720 - Added more BUILD instructions including the "clean" command to force
721 rebuild.
722 - Web edit messages aren't sent to the person who did the edit any more. No
723 message is generated if they are the only person on the nosy list.
724 - Roundupdb now appends "mailing list" information to its messages which
725 include the e-mail address and web interface address. Templates may
726 override this in their db classes to include specific information (support
727 instructions, etc).
729 Fixed:
730 - Argument handling for the roundup-admin find command.
731 - Handling of summary when no note supplied for newblah. Again.
732 - Detection of no form in htmltemplate Field display.
733 - Checklist html template command was setting wrong name.
734 - 2.1-specific gmtime() (no arg) call in roundup.date. (thanks Paul Wright)
735 - mailgw was making naughty assumptions about the schema of the classes it
736 was creating nodes for.
737 - remove the $Foo$ from the HTML files stored in the htmlbase modules.
738 - Instance import now imports the instance using imp.load_module so that
739 we can have instance homes of "roundup" or other existing python package
740 names.
743 2001-07-30 - 0.2.3
744 Big change:
745 - I've split off the support class from the issue class in "extended".
746 Anyone who has any support entries, sorry. It should be possible to
747 write a scipt that moves the entries over pretty easily. If this causes
748 you pain, I'll do so. You'll want to update your instance with the new
749 code in "extended" either way.
751 Features:
752 - Added the unit tests to the start of setup.py so they're run whenever
753 we do anything distutils'y.
754 - Added nicer prompting to the roundup-admin "init" command.
755 - Actually, the roundup-admin code is totally revamped, and has command
756 help and better command-line arg handling.
757 - The cgi_client.Client base class now reflects the structure of "classic"
758 rather than "extended" since "classic" is more of a "base" template.
759 - Added more DB to test. Skips tests where imports fail.
761 Fixed:
762 - One of the tests in test_date had the wrong expected result.
763 - Fixed IssueClass so that superseders links to its classname rather than
764 hard-coded to "issue".
765 - templatebuilder was catching IOError instead of OSError.
766 - The cgi_client newblah method wasn't detecting the __note form field
767 properly.
768 - The History command in htmltemplate didn't handle a new node (None
769 nodeid) properly.
772 2001-07-29 - 0.2.2
773 Features:
774 - Added implementation.txt to the doc directory. Contains implementation
775 notes specific to this implementations of Roundup.
776 - Cleaned up mailgw some (subclass Message for getPart) and added some
777 tests for multipart splitting.
778 - Better checking for html dir in templatebuilder.
779 - Base hyperdb.Class now fakes the "id" property.
780 - Made the classic roundup look more like the original prototype.
781 - Made cgi_client and templating slightly more generic.
782 - Moved some code around in cgi_client allowing for subclassing to change
783 behaviour.
784 - Added the fabricated property "id" to all hyperdb classes.
785 - Cleanup of the link label generation (new method on hyperdb.Class to do
786 it).
788 Fixed:
789 - Everything uses errno module now to check errno values.
790 - New issue form handles lack of note better now.
791 - HTML templating uses section-bar style for index group headers now.
792 - Fixed problem in link display when Link value is None.
793 - Form handling in cgi client wasn't propogating through the previous
794 query elements.
795 - Fixed sort arguments generated for column headings so sorting can be
796 changed now.
799 2001-07-28 - 0.2.1
800 Features:
801 - Added docstring to roundup package so pydoc reports useful information.
802 - Added the roundup 1 software carpentry submission HTML to the doc
803 directory as "overview.html".
805 Fixes:
806 - Fixed bug in init command - templatebuilder was assuming existence of
807 "html" directory in instance home.
808 - Fixed INSTALL.txt to reflect some changes in the installation and test
809 procedure. Whatdya know, "setup.py install" does the script install.
810 There you go...
811 - Fixed some non-string node ids in cgi_client now that the hyperdb is
812 strict about such things.
814 2001-07-26 - 0.2.0
815 Features:
816 - Major reorganisation of code to allow multiple roundup instances and a
817 single, site-packages -based installation. Also allows multiple database
818 back-ends.
819 - Moved the bin/ proggies into the top dir, so that it all works
820 out-of-the-box
821 - Added the "classic" template - a direct implementation of the Roundup
822 spec. Well, as close as we're going to get, anyway.
823 - Added an issue priority of support to "extended"
824 - Added command-line arg handling to roundup-server so it's more useful
825 out-of-the-box.
826 - Added distutils-style installation of "lib" files.
827 - Added some unit tests.
829 Fixes:
830 - Fixed bug in re generation in the filter
831 - Fixed handling of None String property in grouped list headings
832 - Fixed adding new issue with no change note
833 - Fixed values in text input fields which contained quotes (") are now
834 quoted.
835 - Fixed a bug in the hyperdb filter - wrong variable names in the error
836 message.
838 2001-07-19 - 0.1.3
839 - Reldate now takes an argument "pretty" - when true, it pretty-prints the
840 interval generated up to 5 days, then pretty-prints the date of last
841 activity. The issue index and item now use the pretty format.
842 - Classes list for admin user in CGI interface.
843 - Made the view configuration more accessible, neater and more realistic.
844 - Fixed list view grouping handling grouping by a Multilink or String or Link
845 value of None or Date, ... (mind you, sorting by Date???)
846 - Fixed bug in the plain formatter when a Link was None.
847 - Fixed ordering of list view column headings.
848 - Fixed list view column heading sort links - and limited the number of
849 columns to sort by to 2.
850 - Added searching by glob to StringType filtering -
851 ^text - search for text at start of fields
852 text$ - search for text at end of fields
853 ^text$ - exactly match text in fields
854 te*xt - search for text matching "te"<any characters>"xt"
855 te?xt - search for text matching "te"<any one character>"xt"
856 - Added more fields to the issue.filter and issue.index templates
859 2001-07-18 - 0.1.2
860 - Set default index to ?:group=priority&:columns=activity,status,title so
861 the priority column isn't displayed.
862 - Thanks Anthony:
863 - added notes to the README about Python prerequisites
864 - added check to roundup.py, roundup.cgi, server.py and roundup-mailgw.py
865 for python 2+ - and made the file itself parseable by 1.5.2 ;)
866 - python 2.0 didn't have the default args for the time module functions.
867 - better handling of db directory in initDB
868 - Sorting on the extra properties defined by roundupdb classes was broken
869 due to the caching used. May now sort on activity and creation
870 properties, etc.
871 - Set the default index to sort on activity
874 2001-07-18 - 0.1.1
875 - Initial version release with consent of Roundup spec author, Ka-Ping Yee:
876 "Amazing! Nice work. I'll watch for the source code on your website."
878 2001-07-11 - 0.1.0
879 - Needed a bug tracking system. Looked around. Tried to install many
880 Perl-based systems, to no avail. Got tired of waiting for Roundup to be
881 released. Had just finished major product project, so needed something
882 different for a while. Roundup here I come...
