This file contains the changes to the Roundup system over time. The entries
are given with the most recent entry first.
-2001-??-?? - 0.2.9
+2002-01-?? - 0.4.0??
+Feature:
+ . much nicer history display (actualy real handling of property types etc)
+ . journal entries for link and mutlilink properties can be switched on or
+ off
+ . properties in change note are now sorted
+ . the mail gateway now responds with an error message when invalid values
+ for arguments are specified for link or mutlilink properties.
+ . modified unit test to check nosy and assignedto when specified as
+ arguments
+
+Fixed:
+ . handle attachments with no name (eg tnef)
+ . fixed setting nosy as argument in subject line
+
+
+2002-01-16 - 0.4.0b2
+Fixed:
+ . #495392 ] empty nosy -patch
+ . #500574 ] messageid must have format <part1@part2>
+ . fixed some problems with web editing and change detection
+ . mail splitting wasn't detecting responses in the same "section" as quoted
+ text
+ . missed a "from i18n import _" in date.py
+ . #501690 ] MIGRATION.txt incomplete
+ . #502342 ] pipe interface
+ . #502437 ] rogue reactor and unittest
+ . re-enabled dumbdbm when using python >2.1.1 (ie 2.1.2, 2.2)
+ . changed all config accesses so they access either the instance or the
+ config attriubute on the db. This means that all config is obtained from
+ instance_config instead of the mish-mash of classes. This will make
+ switching to a ConfigParser setup easier too, I hope.
+ . #502951 ] adding new properties to old database
+ . #502953 ] nosy-like treatment of other multilinks
+ . #503164 ] create and passwords
+ . plain rendering of links in the htmltemplate now generate a hyperlink to
+ the linked node's page.
+ . #503330 ] ANONYMOUS_REGISTER now applies to mail
+ . #503353 ] setting properties in initial email
+ . #502956 ] filtering by multilink not supported
+ . #503340 ] creating issue with [asignedto=p.ohly]
+ . #502949 ] index view for non-issues and redisplay
+ . #503793 ] changing assignedto resets nosy list
+ . lots of date/interval related changes:
+ - more relaxed date format for input
+ - handle None for date/interval properties
+
+
+2002-01-08 - 0.4.0b1
+Feature:
+ . Added INSTANCE_NAME to configuration - used in web and email to identify
+ the instance.
+ . Added EMAIL_SIGNATURE_POSITION to indicate where to place the roundup
+ signature info in e-mails.
+ . Some more flexibility in the mail gateway and more error handling.
+ . Login now takes you to the page you back to the were denied access to.
+ . Admin user now can has a user index link on their web interface.
+ . We now have basic transaction support. Information is only written to
+ the database when the commit() method is called. Only the anydbm and
+ bsddb3 backends are modified in this way - the bsddb3 backend needs a
+ lot more work anyway...
+ - the CGI and mailgw automatically commit() at the end of processing a
+ single transaction
+ - the admin tool requires an explicit "commit" - it will prompt at exit
+ if there are unsaved changes. A "rollback" removes all changes made
+ during the session (up to the last commit).
+ . Added the "display" command to the admin tool - displays a node's values
+ . Message author's name appears in From: instead of roundup instance name
+ (which still appears in the Reply-To:)
+ . Added a Zope frontend for roundup.
+ . Centralised the python version check code, bumped version to 2.1.1 (really
+ needs to be 2.1.2, but that isn't released yet :)
+ . much better attaching of erroneous messages in the mail gateway
+ . #496356 ] Use threading in messages
+ This adds the tracking of messages by message-id and allows threading
+ using in-reply-to. Most e-mail clients support threading using this
+ feature, and we hope to add support for it to the web gateway.
+
+Fixed:
+ . Lots of bugs, thanks Roché and others on the devel mailing list!
+ . login_action and newuser_action return values were being ignored
+ . Woohoo! Found that bloody re-login bug that was killing the mail
+ gateway.
+ . Fixed login/registration forwarding the user to the right page (or not,
+ on a failure)
+ . We now use weakrefs in the Classes to keep the database reference, so
+ the close() method on the database is no longer needed.
+ . #487480 ] roundup-server
+ . #487476 ] INSTALL.txt
+ . #489760 ] [issue] only subject
+ . fixed doc/index.html to include the quoting in the mail alias.
+ . fixed the backends __init__ so we can pydoc the backend modules
+ . web i/f reports "note added" if there are no changes but a note is entered
+ . we were assuming database files created by anydbm had the same name, but
+ this is not the case for dbm. We now perform a much better check _and_
+ cope with the anydbm implementation module changing too!
+ . envelope-from is now set to the roundup-admin and not roundup itself so
+ delivery reports aren't sent to roundup (thanks Patrick Ohly)
+ . #495400 ] entering blanks
+ Values with spaces are now accepted in roundup-admin - check the long help
+ for details.
+ . #496360 ] table width does not work
+ . detectors were being registered multiple times
+ . added tests for mailgw
+
+
+2001-11-23 - 0.3.0
+Feature:
+ . #467129 ] Lossage when username=e-mail-address
+ . #473123 ] Change message generation for author
+ . MailGW now moves 'resolved' to 'chatting' on receiving e-mail for an issue.
+ . Added Structured Text rendering to htmltemplate, thanks Brad Clements.
+ . Added CGI configuration via env vars (see roundup.cgi for details)
+ . "roundup.cgi" is now installed to "<python-prefix>/share/roundup/cgi-bin"
+ . roundup-admin now accepts abbreviated commands (eg. l = li = lis = list)
+ . roundup-mailgw now supports unix mailbox and POP as sources of mail.
+ . roundup-admin now handles all hyperdb exceptions
+ . users may attach files to issues (and support in ext) through the web now
+ . incorporated patch from Roch'e Compaan implementing attachments in nosy
+ e-mail
+ . added a target version field to the extended issue schema
+ . added dummy hooks for I18N and some preliminary (test) markup of
+ translatable messages
+
+Fixed:
+ . Fixed a bug in HTMLTemplate changes.
+ . 'unread' to 'chatting' automagic status change was b0rken.
+ . Anonymous user lockout wasn't working.
+ . roundup-server now works on Windows, thanks Juergen Hermann.
+ . Fixed install documentation, also thanks Juergen Hermann.
+ . Fixed some URL issues in roundup.cgi, again thanks Juergen Hermann.
+ . bug #475347 ] WindowsError still not caught (patch from Juergen Hermann)
+ . bug #474749 ] indentations lost
+ . bug #477104 ] HTML tag error in roundup-server
+ . bug #477107 ] HTTP header problem
+ . bug #477687 ] conforming html
+ . bug #474372 ] Netscape 4.77 do not render Support form
+ . bug #477685 ] base64.decodestring breaks
+ . bug #477837 ] lynx does not like the cookie
+ . bug #477892 ] Password edit doesn't fix login cookie
+ . newuser_action now presents error messages rather than tracebacks.
+ . bug #479511 ] mailgw to pop
+ . bug #479508 ] roundup-admin crash on wrong class
+ . bad error report in hyperdb
+ . roundup.mailgw now handles errors on the set() and create() at the end
+ of processing
+ . roundup.mailgw also handles messages that are passed to it that don't
+ contain a From: line - apparently some POP servers can do this. It punts
+ an error message to the roundup admin.
+ . fixed nosy reaction and author copy handling
+ . errors in nosy reaction will be propogated now (were effectively being
+ squashed)
+ . re-open the database as the author in mail handling
+ . missing "return" in filter_section (thanks Roch'e Compaan)
+
+
+2001-10-23 - 0.3.0 pre 3
+Feature:
+ . MailGW now moves 'unread' to 'chatting' on receiving e-mail for an issue.
+ . feature #473127: Filenames. I modified the file.index and htmltemplate
+ source so that the filename is used in the link and the creation
+ information is displayed.
+ Admin Tool (roundup-admin):
+ . Interactive mode for running multiple (independant at present) commands.
+ . Tabular display of nodes.
+ . Import and export via colon-separated files.
+
+Changed:
+ . re-organised the html templating code. Fixed some bugs, probably
+ introduced some more. Hopefully not too many.
+
+Fixed:
+ . Stand-alone server now has a configurable setuid user.
+ . CGI interface wasn't handling checkboxes at all.
+ . Fixed quopri usage in mailgw from bug reports on mailing list.
+ . Remove the "freshen" command from the roundup-admin tool.
+ . Catch errors in login - no username or password supplied.
+ . Fixed editing of password (Password property type) thanks Roch'e Compaan.
+ . Fixed grouping of non-str properties thanks Roch'e Compaan.
+ . bug #473121: The customisation view and filters (CGI interface view
+ customisation section may now be hidden (patch from Roch'e Compaan.)
+ . bug #473122: Issue id sorting (hyperdb sorts strings-that-look-like-numbers
+ as numbers now.
+ . bug #473124: UI inconsistency with Link fields.
+ This also prompted me to fix a fairly long-standing usability issue -
+ that of being able to turn off certain filters.
+ . bug #473125: Paragraph in e-mails
+ . bug #473126: Sender unknown
+ . bug #473130: Nosy list not set correctly
+
+
+2001-10-11 - 0.3.0 pre 2
+Fixed:
+ . Hyperdatabase was inserting empty strings instead of None for missing
+ property values. This broke a lot of things.
+
+
+2001-10-10 - 0.3.0 pre 1
+Feature:
+ . roundup-admin create now prompts for property info if none is supplied
+ on the command-line.
+ . hyperdb Class getprops() method may now return only the mutable
+ properties.
+ . CGI interfaces now generate a top-level index of their known instances.
+
+Changed:
+ . Login now uses cookies, which makes it a whole lot more flexible. We can
+ now support anonymous user access (read-only, unless there's an
+ "anonymous" user, in which case write access is permitted). Login
+ handling has been moved into cgi_client.Client.main()
+ . The "extended" schema is now the default in roundup init.
+ . The schemas have had their page headings modified to cope with the new
+ login handling. Existing installations should copy the interfaces.py
+ file from the roundup lib directory to their instance home.
+ . Passwords are now encoded by default (except exising databases which
+ will only be encoded when the passwords are changed). The scheme used
+ at the moment is SHA - but the code is flexible enough to take any
+ number of encoding systems.
+ . The roundup-admin tool always operates as the "admin" user now. Database
+ protection should be achieved using file system protections (see the
+ documentation for details.)
+
+Fixed:
+ . Incorrectly had a Bizar Software copyright on the cgitb.py module from
+ Ping - has been removed.
+ . Pretty time interval wasn't handling > 1 month properly.
. Generation of links to Link/Multilink in indexes. (thanks Hubert Hoegl)
. AssignedTo wasn't in the "classic" schema's item page.
+ . Fixed a whole bunch of places in the CGI interface where we should have
+ been returning Not Found instead of throwing an exception.
+ . Fixed a deviation from the spec: trying to modify the 'id' property of
+ an item now throws an exception.
+ . The plain() template function now html-escapes the content.
+ . Change message was stuffing up for multilinks with no key property.
+
+
+--------------
2001-08-30 - 0.2.8
Fixed:
+ . Wasn't handling unguessable mime types for file uploads.
. Missing import in mailgw.
