145 - gadfly backend now handles changes to the schema - but only one property
146 at a time
147 - cgi.client base URL is now obtained from the config TRACKER_WEB
148 - request.url has gone away - there's too much magic in trying to figure
149 what it should be
150 - cgi-bin script redirects to https now if the request was https
151 - FileClass "content" property wasn't being returned by getprops() in most
152 backends
153 - we now verify instance attributes on instance open and throw a useful error
154 if they're not all there
155 - sf 611217 ] menu() has problems when labelprop==None
156 - verify contents of tracker module when the tracker is opened
157 - many performance improvements in *dbm and sql backends
158 - mailgw was missing an "import sys"

173 - giving a user a Role that doesn't exist doesn't break stuff any more
174 - revamped user guide, customisation guide, added maintenance guide
175 - merge Zope Collector #538 fix from ZPT CVS trunk (path expressions with a

177 alternate)
178 - merge Zope Collector #573 fix from ZPT CVS trunk

201 Fixed:
202 - #576086 ] dumb copying mistake (frontends/ZRoundup.py)

208 - web forms may now unset Link values (like assignedto)
209 - cleanup: moved roundup.templatebuilder to roundup.templates.builder
210 - instance __init__ no longer silently traps dbinit import errors
212 Feature:
213 - new backend for metakit (thanks Gordon McMillan)
214 - new backend for gadfly (it's as done as it's going to get)
215 - further split the dbm backends from the core code, allowing easier
216 non-dict-like backends (eg metakit, RDB)
217 - implemented and used the new access control mechanisms (Permissions, Roles)
218 (see doc/security.txt)
219 - switched templating to use Zope's PageTemplates (yay!)
220 - switched to sessions for web authentication
221 - added Boolean and Number types
222 - fixed the journal bloat
223 - updated design document for new access controls

227 - re-enabled link backrefs from messages (feature request #568714)
228 - the page layout is now templatable
229 - re-worked cgi interface to abstract out the explicit "issue" interface
230 - have index page handle mid-page errors better so header and footer are
231 still visible
232 - we handle "not found", access and item page render errors better
233 - fixed double-submit by having new-item-submit redirect at end
234 - daemonify roundup-server (fork, logfile, pidfile)
235 - modify cgitb to display PageTemplate errors better
236 - rename to "instance" to "tracker"
237 - have roundup.cgi pick up tracker config from the environment
238 - revamped look and feel in web interface
239 - cleaned up stylesheet usage
240 - several bug fixes and documentation fixes
241 - added is_retired test to hyperdb.Class
242 - added capability to save queries:
243 - a query Class with name, klass (to search) and url (query string)
244 properties
245 - a Multilink to query on user called queries
246 - html templates for query, and a list of queries in user.item
247 - search form has Save button & name input
248 - saved queries put in menu in pagehead
249 - for migration, none of the above is required and old behavior preserved.
250 - showquery translates search form <-> query string
251 - cleaned up the indexer code:
252 - it splits more words out
253 - removed code we'll never use (roundup.roundup_indexer has the full
254 implementation, and replaces roundup.indexer)
255 - only index text/plain and rfc822/message (ideas for other text formats to
256 index are welcome)
257 - added simple unit test for indexer. Needs more tests for regression.
258 - all String properties may now be indexed too. Currently there's a bit of
259 "issue" specific code in the actual searching which needs to be
260 addressed. In a nutshell:
261 + pass 'indexme="yes"' as a String() property initialisation arg, eg:
262 file = FileClass(db, "file", name=String(), type=String(),
263 comment=String(indexme="yes"))
264 + the comment will then be indexed and be searchable, with the results
265 related back to the issue that the file is linked to
266 - as a result of this work, the FileClass has a default MIME type that may
267 be overridden in a subclass, or by the use of a "type" property as is
268 done in the default templates.
269 - the regeneration of the indexes (if necessary) is done once the schema is
270 set up in the dbinit.
271 - new "reindex" command in roundup-admin used to force regeneration of the
272 index
273 - added email display function - mangles email addrs so they're not so easily
274 scraped from the web
275 - switched to using a session-based web login
276 - made mailgw handle set and modify operations on multilinks (bug #579094)
277 - fixed the journal bloat from multilink changes - we just log the add or
278 remove operations, not the whole list
281 2002-06-24 0.4.2
282 Fixed:
283 - Cleaned up the hyperdb unit tests.
284 - Applied patch from Andrew W. Nosenko to give nicer Unauthorised message
285 when anonymous user tries to edit. Should've been applied in 0.4.2pr1. Oops.
286 - Added more detailed note to MIGRATION regarding the detectors changes.
289 2002-06-19 0.4.2pr1
290 Feature:
291 - added a "detectors" directory for people to put their useful auditors and
292 reactors in. Note - the roundupdb.IssueClass.sendmessage method has been
293 split and renamed "nosymessage" specifically for things like the nosy
294 reactor, and "send_message" which just sends the message.
295 - link() htmltemplate function now has a "showid" option for links and
296 multilinks. When true, it only displays the linked node id as the anchor
297 text. The link value is displayed as a tooltip using the title anchor
298 attribute.
299 To use in eg. the superseder field, have something like this:
300 <td>
301 <display call="field('superseder', showid=1)">
302 <display call="classhelp('issue', 'id,title', label='list', width=500)">
303 <property name="superseder">
304 <br>View: <display call="link('superseder', showid=1)">
305 </property>
306 </td>
307 - stripping of the email message body can now be controlled through the
308 config variables EMAIL_KEEP_QUOTED_TEXT and EMAIL_LEAVE_BODY_UNCHANGED.
309 - all database files created are now group readable and writable.
310 - added option to automatically add the authors and recipients of messages
311 to the nosy lists with the options ADD_AUTHOR_TO_NOSY (default 'new') and
312 ADD_RECIPIENTS_TO_NOSY (default 'new'). These settings emulate the current
313 behaviour. Setting them to 'yes' will add the author/recipients to the nosy
314 on messages that create issues and followup messages.
315 - reverting to dates for intervals > 2 months sucks
316 - changed the default message list in issues to display the message body
317 - applied patch #558876 ] cgi client customization
318 - split instance initialisation into two steps, allowing config changes
319 before the database is initialised.
320 - don't create an empty message on email issue creation if the email is empty
321 - may now display additional fields in Multilink form menus
322 - #541941 ] changing multilink properties by mail
323 - #526730 ] search for messages capability
324 - #505180 ] split MailGW.handle_Message
325 - also changed cgi client since it was duplicating the functionality
327 Fixed:
328 - stop sending blank (whitespace-only) notes
329 - cleanup of serialisation for database storage
330 - node ids are now generated from a lockable store - no more race conditions
331 - sorting was applied to all nodes of the MultiLink class instead of
332 to the nodes that are actually linked to in the "field" template
333 function. This adds about 20+ seconds in the display of an issue if
334 your database has a 1000 or more issues in it.
335 - added missing documentation for a few of the config option values
336 - file upload broke if you didn't supply a change note
337 - fixed SCRIPT_NAME in ZRoundup for instances not at top level of Zope
338 (thanks dman)
339 - fixed some sorting issues that were breaking some unit tests under py2.2
340 - mailgw test output dir was confusing the init test (but only on 2.2 *shrug*)
341 - node caching now works, and gives a small boost in performance
342 - #449374 ] re-enable bsddb3 backend
343 bsddb3 backend now works, reinstating
344 - #551483 ] assignedto in Client.make_index_link
345 - made backends.__init__ be more specific about which ImportErrors it really
346 wants to ignore
347 - fixed the example addresses in the templates to use correct example domains
348 - cleaned out the template stylesheets, removing a bunch of junk that really
349 wasn't necessary (font specs, styles never used) and added a style for
350 message content
351 - build htmlbase if tests are run using CVS checkout
352 - #565979 ] code error in hyperdb.Class.find
353 - #565996 ] The "Attach a File to this Issue" fails
354 - #564271 ] find() and new properties
355 - #562130 ] cookie path generated from ZRoundup was wrong in some situations
356 - remove CR characters embedded in messages (ZRoundup)
357 - properly quote the email address and "real name" in all situations using the
358 'email' module if it is available and 'rfc822' otherwise
359 - #565992 ] if ISSUE_TRACKER_WEB doesn't have the trailing '/', add it
360 - use the rfc822 module to ensure that every (oddball) email address and
361 real-name is properly quoted
362 - #558867 ] ZRoundup redirect /instance requests to /instance/
363 - #569415 ] {version}
364 - #569178 ] type error
365 was fixed as part of the general cleanup of reactors
368 2002-03-25 - 0.4.1
369 Feature:
370 - use blobfiles in back_anydbm which is used in back_bsddb.
371 change test_db as dirlist does not work for subdirectories.
372 ATTENTION: blobfiles now creates subdirectories for files.
373 - add module blobfiles in backends with file access functions.
374 - roundup db catch only IOError in getfile.
375 - roundup db catches retrieving not existing files.
376 - #503204 ] mailgw needs a default class
377 - partially done - the setting of additional properties can wait for a
378 better configuration system.
379 - Alternate email addresses are now available for users. See the MIGRATION
380 file for info on how to activate the feature.
381 - #511168 ] Web interface: Adding new products
382 Classes that don't provide template html get a default edit interface now:
383 - access using the admin "class list" interface
384 - limited to admin-only
385 - requires the csv module from object-craft (url given if it's missing)
386 - Added popup help for classes using the classhelp html template function.
387 - add <display call="classhelp('priority', 'id,name,description')">
388 to an item page, and it generates a link to a popup window which displays
389 the id, name and description for the priority class. The description
390 field won't exist in most installations, but it will be added to the
391 default templates.
392 - #517734 ] web header customisation is obscure
393 - All messages sent to the nosy list are now encoded as
394 quoted-printable before they are sent.
395 - Fixed display of mutlilink properties when using the template
396 functions, menu and plain.
398 Fixed:
399 - Clean up mail handling, multipart handling.
400 - respect encodings in non multipart messages.
401 - makeHtmlBase: re.sub under python 2.2 did not replace '.', string.replace
402 does it.
403 - preamble in tepmlateBuilder mentioned htmldata
404 - mailgw checks encoding on first part too.
405 - #511586 ] unittest FAIL: testReldate_date
406 - Added a uniquely Roundup header to email, "X-Roundup-Name"
407 - All forms now have "double-submit" protection when Javascript is enabled
408 on the client-side.

410 - #516854 ] "My Issues" and redisplay
411 - #517906 ] Attribute order in "View customisation"
412 - #514854 ] History: "User" is always ticket creator
413 - wasn't handling cvs parser feeding correctly
414 - fixed some problems in date calculations (calendar.py doesn't handle over-
415 and under-flow). Also, hour/minute/second intervals may now be more than
416 99 each.
417 - #527416 ] roundup-admin uses undefined value
418 - #527503 ] unfriendly init blowup when parent dir
419 (also handles UsageError correctly now in init)
420 - #524129 ] roundup-admin gets python path wrong

426 - journal entries for link and mutlilink properties can be switched on or
427 off
428 - properties in change note are now sorted

435 - handle attachments with no name (eg tnef)
436 - fixed setting nosy as argument in subject line
437 - fixed back_bsddb so it passed the journal tests
438 - fixed status changes in mail gateway (eg. unread -> chatting)
439 - we'll actually distribute the frontends directory now, as advertised...

442 - unit tests for html templating (and re-enabled the listbox field for
443 multilinks)
444 - allow abbreviation of "help" in admin tool too.
445 - run_tests testReldate_date failed if LANG is 'german'
446 - mailgw failures (unexpected ones) are forwarded to the roundup admin
449 2002-01-16 - 0.4.0b2

459 - #502437 ] rogue reactor and unittest
460 - re-enabled dumbdbm when using python >2.1.1 (ie 2.1.2, 2.2)
461 - changed all config accesses so they access either the instance or the
462 config attriubute on the db. This means that all config is obtained from
463 instance_config instead of the mish-mash of classes. This will make
464 switching to a ConfigParser setup easier too, I hope.
465 - #502951 ] adding new properties to old database
466 - #502953 ] nosy-like treatment of other multilinks
467 - #503164 ] create and passwords
468 - plain rendering of links in the htmltemplate now generate a hyperlink to
469 the linked node's page.
470 - #503330 ] ANONYMOUS_REGISTER now applies to mail
471 - #503353 ] setting properties in initial email
472 - #502956 ] filtering by multilink not supported
473 - #503340 ] creating issue with [asignedto=p.ohly]
474 - #502949 ] index view for non-issues and redisplay
475 - #503793 ] changing assignedto resets nosy list
476 - lots of date/interval related changes:
477 - more relaxed date format for input
478 - handle None for date/interval properties
481 2002-01-08 - 0.4.0b1
482 Feature:
483 - Added INSTANCE_NAME to configuration - used in web and email to identify
484 the instance.
485 - Added EMAIL_SIGNATURE_POSITION to indicate where to place the roundup
486 signature info in e-mails.
487 - Some more flexibility in the mail gateway and more error handling.
488 - Login now takes you to the page you back to the were denied access to.
489 - Admin user now can has a user index link on their web interface.
490 - We now have basic transaction support. Information is only written to
491 the database when the commit() method is called. Only the anydbm and
492 bsddb3 backends are modified in this way - the bsddb3 backend needs a
493 lot more work anyway...
494 - the CGI and mailgw automatically commit() at the end of processing a
495 single transaction
496 - the admin tool requires an explicit "commit" - it will prompt at exit
497 if there are unsaved changes. A "rollback" removes all changes made
498 during the session (up to the last commit).
499 - Added the "display" command to the admin tool - displays a node's values
500 - Message author's name appears in From: instead of roundup instance name
501 (which still appears in the Reply-To:)
502 - Added a Zope frontend for roundup.
503 - Centralised the python version check code, bumped version to 2.1.1 (really
504 needs to be 2.1.2, but that isn't released yet :)
505 - much better attaching of erroneous messages in the mail gateway
506 - #496356 ] Use threading in messages
507 This adds the tracking of messages by message-id and allows threading
508 using in-reply-to. Most e-mail clients support threading using this
509 feature, and we hope to add support for it to the web gateway.
511 Fixed:
512 - Lots of bugs, thanks Roché and others on the devel mailing list!
513 - login_action and newuser_action return values were being ignored
514 - Woohoo! Found that bloody re-login bug that was killing the mail
515 gateway.
516 - Fixed login/registration forwarding the user to the right page (or not,
517 on a failure)
518 - We now use weakrefs in the Classes to keep the database reference, so
519 the close() method on the database is no longer needed.
520 - #487480 ] roundup-server
521 - #487476 ] INSTALL.txt
522 - #489760 ] [issue] only subject
523 - fixed doc/index.html to include the quoting in the mail alias.
524 - fixed the backends __init__ so we can pydoc the backend modules
525 - web i/f reports "note added" if there are no changes but a note is entered
526 - we were assuming database files created by anydbm had the same name, but
527 this is not the case for dbm. We now perform a much better check _and_
528 cope with the anydbm implementation module changing too!
529 - envelope-from is now set to the roundup-admin and not roundup itself so
530 delivery reports aren't sent to roundup (thanks Patrick Ohly)
531 - #495400 ] entering blanks
532 Values with spaces are now accepted in roundup-admin - check the long help
533 for details.
534 - #496360 ] table width does not work
535 - detectors were being registered multiple times
536 - added tests for mailgw
539 2001-11-23 - 0.3.0
540 Feature:
541 - #467129 ] Lossage when username=e-mail-address
542 - #473123 ] Change message generation for author
543 - MailGW now moves 'resolved' to 'chatting' on receiving e-mail for an issue.
544 - Added Structured Text rendering to htmltemplate, thanks Brad Clements.
545 - Added CGI configuration via env vars (see roundup.cgi for details)
546 - "roundup.cgi" is now installed to "<python-prefix>/share/roundup/cgi-bin"
547 - roundup-admin now accepts abbreviated commands (eg. l = li = lis = list)
548 - roundup-mailgw now supports unix mailbox and POP as sources of mail.
549 - roundup-admin now handles all hyperdb exceptions
550 - users may attach files to issues (and support in ext) through the web now
551 - incorporated patch from Roch'e Compaan implementing attachments in nosy
552 e-mail
553 - added a target version field to the extended issue schema
554 - added dummy hooks for I18N and some preliminary (test) markup of
555 translatable messages
557 Fixed:
558 - Fixed a bug in HTMLTemplate changes.
559 - 'unread' to 'chatting' automagic status change was b0rken.
560 - Anonymous user lockout wasn't working.
561 - roundup-server now works on Windows, thanks Juergen Hermann.
562 - Fixed install documentation, also thanks Juergen Hermann.
563 - Fixed some URL issues in roundup.cgi, again thanks Juergen Hermann.
564 - bug #475347 ] WindowsError still not caught (patch from Juergen Hermann)
565 - bug #474749 ] indentations lost
566 - bug #477104 ] HTML tag error in roundup-server
567 - bug #477107 ] HTTP header problem
568 - bug #477687 ] conforming html
569 - bug #474372 ] Netscape 4.77 do not render Support form
570 - bug #477685 ] base64.decodestring breaks
571 - bug #477837 ] lynx does not like the cookie
572 - bug #477892 ] Password edit doesn't fix login cookie
573 - newuser_action now presents error messages rather than tracebacks.
574 - bug #479511 ] mailgw to pop
575 - bug #479508 ] roundup-admin crash on wrong class
576 - bad error report in hyperdb
577 - roundup.mailgw now handles errors on the set() and create() at the end
578 of processing
579 - roundup.mailgw also handles messages that are passed to it that don't
580 contain a From: line - apparently some POP servers can do this. It punts
581 an error message to the roundup admin.
582 - fixed nosy reaction and author copy handling
583 - errors in nosy reaction will be propogated now (were effectively being
584 squashed)
585 - re-open the database as the author in mail handling
586 - missing "return" in filter_section (thanks Roch'e Compaan)
589 2001-10-23 - 0.3.0 pre 3
590 Feature:
591 - MailGW now moves 'unread' to 'chatting' on receiving e-mail for an issue.
592 - feature #473127: Filenames. I modified the file.index and htmltemplate
593 source so that the filename is used in the link and the creation
594 information is displayed.
595 Admin Tool (roundup-admin):
596 - Interactive mode for running multiple (independant at present) commands.
597 - Tabular display of nodes.
598 - Import and export via colon-separated files.
600 Changed:
601 - re-organised the html templating code. Fixed some bugs, probably
602 introduced some more. Hopefully not too many.
604 Fixed:
605 - Stand-alone server now has a configurable setuid user.
606 - CGI interface wasn't handling checkboxes at all.
607 - Fixed quopri usage in mailgw from bug reports on mailing list.
608 - Remove the "freshen" command from the roundup-admin tool.
609 - Catch errors in login - no username or password supplied.
610 - Fixed editing of password (Password property type) thanks Roch'e Compaan.
611 - Fixed grouping of non-str properties thanks Roch'e Compaan.
612 - bug #473121: The customisation view and filters (CGI interface view
613 customisation section may now be hidden (patch from Roch'e Compaan.)
614 - bug #473122: Issue id sorting (hyperdb sorts strings-that-look-like-numbers
615 as numbers now.
616 - bug #473124: UI inconsistency with Link fields.
617 This also prompted me to fix a fairly long-standing usability issue -
618 that of being able to turn off certain filters.
619 - bug #473125: Paragraph in e-mails
620 - bug #473126: Sender unknown
621 - bug #473130: Nosy list not set correctly
624 2001-10-11 - 0.3.0 pre 2
625 Fixed:
626 - Hyperdatabase was inserting empty strings instead of None for missing
627 property values. This broke a lot of things.
630 2001-10-10 - 0.3.0 pre 1
631 Feature:
632 - roundup-admin create now prompts for property info if none is supplied
633 on the command-line.
634 - hyperdb Class getprops() method may now return only the mutable
635 properties.
636 - CGI interfaces now generate a top-level index of their known instances.
638 Changed:
639 - Login now uses cookies, which makes it a whole lot more flexible. We can
640 now support anonymous user access (read-only, unless there's an
641 "anonymous" user, in which case write access is permitted). Login
642 handling has been moved into cgi_client.Client.main()
643 - The "extended" schema is now the default in roundup init.
644 - The schemas have had their page headings modified to cope with the new
645 login handling. Existing installations should copy the interfaces.py
646 file from the roundup lib directory to their instance home.
647 - Passwords are now encoded by default (except exising databases which
648 will only be encoded when the passwords are changed). The scheme used
649 at the moment is SHA - but the code is flexible enough to take any
650 number of encoding systems.
651 - The roundup-admin tool always operates as the "admin" user now. Database
652 protection should be achieved using file system protections (see the
653 documentation for details.)
655 Fixed:
656 - Incorrectly had a Bizar Software copyright on the cgitb.py module from
657 Ping - has been removed.
658 - Pretty time interval wasn't handling > 1 month properly.
659 - Generation of links to Link/Multilink in indexes. (thanks Hubert Hoegl)
660 - AssignedTo wasn't in the "classic" schema's item page.
661 - Fixed a whole bunch of places in the CGI interface where we should have
662 been returning Not Found instead of throwing an exception.
663 - Fixed a deviation from the spec: trying to modify the 'id' property of
664 an item now throws an exception.
665 - The plain() template function now html-escapes the content.
666 - Change message was stuffing up for multilinks with no key property.
670 --------------
672 2001-08-30 - 0.2.8
673 Fixed:
674 - Wasn't handling unguessable mime types for file uploads.
675 - Missing import in mailgw.
678 2001-08-29 - 0.2.7
679 Feature:
680 - Text searches are now case insensitive. All forms of text search use
681 regular expressions now.
683 Fixed:
684 - Had another 2.1-ism in the unit tests
685 - Made the mail parser a little more robust w.r.t missing Subject:
686 (both thanks Mikhail Sobolev)
687 - Missed some isFooType usages (thanks Mikhail Sobolev for spotting them)
688 - Reverted back to sending change messages to the web editor of a node so
689 that the change note message is actually genrated.
690 - CGI interface wasn't generating correct change messages.
691 - Notes entered during a change are saved to the messages list even if
692 there's no nosy list. No message is generated if there's no nosy list and
693 there's no change note (since it would just duplicates the journal).
694 - Completely removed the bsddb3 module from the tests - will be reinstated
695 when the http://bsddb.sourceforge.net/'s bugs #439959 and #456408 are
696 dealt with. One is fixed in CVS, the other pending.
699 2001-08-08 - 0.2.6
700 Note:
701 - Roundup is now released under the same terms as the Python License.
703 Feature:
704 - Added tests for instance initialisation. No more releasing the software
705 with bugs in roundup.init!
706 - Now bundling unittest with the package so that python 2.0 users can use
707 the tests.
708 - Much better error handling and messages generated by the mail gateway.
710 Fixed:
711 - Implemented correct mail splitting. Added unit tests. Also snips
712 signatures now too.
713 - Bug #447671 - typo in roundup/init.py
714 - Changed date.Date to use regular string formatting instead of strftime -
715 win32 seems to have problems with %T and no hour... or something...
716 - Bug #448484 - now catching correct exception from makedirs.
717 - Instances are now opened by a special function that generates a unique
718 module name for the instances on import time.
721 2001-08-03 - 0.2.5
722 Note:
723 - The bsddb3 module has a bug that renders it non-functional. Users should
724 select the anydbm or bsddb backend instead.
726 Fixed:
727 - Python 2.0 does not contain the unittest module. The setup.py module now
728 checks for unittest before attempting to run the unit tests.
731 2001-08-03 - 0.2.4
732 Features:
733 - Added ability for cgi newblah forms to indicate that the new node
734 should be linked somewhere.
735 - Added time logging and file uploading to the templates.
736 - Added "My Issues" and "My Support" to extended template. Changed "Your
737 Details" to "My Details". Changed the "New Foo" links to "Add Foo".
738 Added links for unassigned support and issues. Generally reorganised and
739 cleanup the header up.
740 - Changed the order of the information in the message generated by web edits.
741 - Extended the range of intervals that are pretty-printed before actual dates
742 are displayed.
743 - Added more BUILD instructions including the "clean" command to force
744 rebuild.
745 - Web edit messages aren't sent to the person who did the edit any more. No
746 message is generated if they are the only person on the nosy list.
747 - Roundupdb now appends "mailing list" information to its messages which
748 include the e-mail address and web interface address. Templates may
749 override this in their db classes to include specific information (support
750 instructions, etc).
752 Fixed:
753 - Argument handling for the roundup-admin find command.
754 - Handling of summary when no note supplied for newblah. Again.
755 - Detection of no form in htmltemplate Field display.
756 - Checklist html template command was setting wrong name.
757 - 2.1-specific gmtime() (no arg) call in roundup.date. (thanks Paul Wright)
758 - mailgw was making naughty assumptions about the schema of the classes it
759 was creating nodes for.
760 - remove the $Foo$ from the HTML files stored in the htmlbase modules.
761 - Instance import now imports the instance using imp.load_module so that
762 we can have instance homes of "roundup" or other existing python package
763 names.
766 2001-07-30 - 0.2.3
767 Big change:
768 - I've split off the support class from the issue class in "extended".
769 Anyone who has any support entries, sorry. It should be possible to
770 write a scipt that moves the entries over pretty easily. If this causes
771 you pain, I'll do so. You'll want to update your instance with the new
772 code in "extended" either way.
774 Features:
775 - Added the unit tests to the start of setup.py so they're run whenever
776 we do anything distutils'y.
777 - Added nicer prompting to the roundup-admin "init" command.
778 - Actually, the roundup-admin code is totally revamped, and has command
779 help and better command-line arg handling.
780 - The cgi_client.Client base class now reflects the structure of "classic"
781 rather than "extended" since "classic" is more of a "base" template.
782 - Added more DB to test. Skips tests where imports fail.
784 Fixed:
785 - One of the tests in test_date had the wrong expected result.
786 - Fixed IssueClass so that superseders links to its classname rather than
787 hard-coded to "issue".
788 - templatebuilder was catching IOError instead of OSError.
789 - The cgi_client newblah method wasn't detecting the __note form field
790 properly.
791 - The History command in htmltemplate didn't handle a new node (None
792 nodeid) properly.
795 2001-07-29 - 0.2.2
796 Features:
797 - Added implementation.txt to the doc directory. Contains implementation
798 notes specific to this implementations of Roundup.
799 - Cleaned up mailgw some (subclass Message for getPart) and added some
800 tests for multipart splitting.
801 - Better checking for html dir in templatebuilder.
802 - Base hyperdb.Class now fakes the "id" property.
803 - Made the classic roundup look more like the original prototype.
804 - Made cgi_client and templating slightly more generic.
805 - Moved some code around in cgi_client allowing for subclassing to change
806 behaviour.
807 - Added the fabricated property "id" to all hyperdb classes.
808 - Cleanup of the link label generation (new method on hyperdb.Class to do
809 it).
811 Fixed:
812 - Everything uses errno module now to check errno values.
813 - New issue form handles lack of note better now.
814 - HTML templating uses section-bar style for index group headers now.
815 - Fixed problem in link display when Link value is None.
816 - Form handling in cgi client wasn't propogating through the previous
817 query elements.
818 - Fixed sort arguments generated for column headings so sorting can be
819 changed now.
822 2001-07-28 - 0.2.1
823 Features:
824 - Added docstring to roundup package so pydoc reports useful information.
825 - Added the roundup 1 software carpentry submission HTML to the doc
826 directory as "overview.html".
828 Fixes:
829 - Fixed bug in init command - templatebuilder was assuming existence of
830 "html" directory in instance home.
831 - Fixed INSTALL.txt to reflect some changes in the installation and test
832 procedure. Whatdya know, "setup.py install" does the script install.
833 There you go...
834 - Fixed some non-string node ids in cgi_client now that the hyperdb is
835 strict about such things.
837 2001-07-26 - 0.2.0
838 Features:
839 - Major reorganisation of code to allow multiple roundup instances and a
840 single, site-packages -based installation. Also allows multiple database
841 back-ends.
842 - Moved the bin/ proggies into the top dir, so that it all works
843 out-of-the-box
844 - Added the "classic" template - a direct implementation of the Roundup
845 spec. Well, as close as we're going to get, anyway.
846 - Added an issue priority of support to "extended"
847 - Added command-line arg handling to roundup-server so it's more useful
848 out-of-the-box.
849 - Added distutils-style installation of "lib" files.
850 - Added some unit tests.
852 Fixes:
853 - Fixed bug in re generation in the filter
854 - Fixed handling of None String property in grouped list headings
855 - Fixed adding new issue with no change note
856 - Fixed values in text input fields which contained quotes (") are now
857 quoted.
858 - Fixed a bug in the hyperdb filter - wrong variable names in the error
859 message.
861 2001-07-19 - 0.1.3
862 - Reldate now takes an argument "pretty" - when true, it pretty-prints the
863 interval generated up to 5 days, then pretty-prints the date of last
864 activity. The issue index and item now use the pretty format.
865 - Classes list for admin user in CGI interface.
866 - Made the view configuration more accessible, neater and more realistic.
867 - Fixed list view grouping handling grouping by a Multilink or String or Link
868 value of None or Date, ... (mind you, sorting by Date???)
869 - Fixed bug in the plain formatter when a Link was None.
870 - Fixed ordering of list view column headings.
871 - Fixed list view column heading sort links - and limited the number of
872 columns to sort by to 2.
873 - Added searching by glob to StringType filtering -
874 ^text - search for text at start of fields
875 text$ - search for text at end of fields
876 ^text$ - exactly match text in fields
877 te*xt - search for text matching "te"<any characters>"xt"
878 te?xt - search for text matching "te"<any one character>"xt"
879 - Added more fields to the issue.filter and issue.index templates
882 2001-07-18 - 0.1.2
883 - Set default index to ?:group=priority&:columns=activity,status,title so
884 the priority column isn't displayed.
885 - Thanks Anthony:
886 - added notes to the README about Python prerequisites
887 - added check to roundup.py, roundup.cgi, server.py and roundup-mailgw.py
888 for python 2+ - and made the file itself parseable by 1.5.2 ;)
889 - python 2.0 didn't have the default args for the time module functions.
890 - better handling of db directory in initDB
891 - Sorting on the extra properties defined by roundupdb classes was broken
892 due to the caching used. May now sort on activity and creation
893 properties, etc.
894 - Set the default index to sort on activity
897 2001-07-18 - 0.1.1
898 - Initial version release with consent of Roundup spec author, Ka-Ping Yee:
899 "Amazing! Nice work. I'll watch for the source code on your website."
901 2001-07-11 - 0.1.0
902 - Needed a bug tracking system. Looked around. Tried to install many
903 Perl-based systems, to no avail. Got tired of waiting for Roundup to be
904 released. Had just finished major product project, so needed something
905 different for a while. Roundup here I come...
