-=================================================
-SC-Track Roundup 0.5.2 - an issue tracking system
-=================================================
-
-This is a bugfix release for version 0.5.x - if you're upgrading from before
-that, you *must* read doc/upgrading.txt!
-
-Unfortunately, the Zope frontend for Roundup is currently broken, with no
-fix in the forseeable future.
-
-Roundup requires python 2.1.3 or later for correct operation. Users of the
-sqlite backend are encouraged to upgrade sqlite to version 2.7.3.
-
-We've had a good crack at bugs (thanks to all who contributed!):
-
-- added quotes around python interpreter in windows bat (sf bug 623963)
-- fixed link at end of installation doc (sf bug 623957)
-- handle "classname" URL path errors cleaner (generate a 404)
-- added CGI :remove:<propname> and :add:<propname> which specify item
- ids to remove / add in <propname> multilink.
-- bugfix in boolean templating
-- remember the change note on bad submissions (sf bug 625989)
-- highlight required form fields (sf bug 625989)
-- force non-word boundary to match re: in subject (sf bug 626303)
-- handle sqlite bug (<2.7.2) (sf bug 630828)
-- handle missing props in anydbm stringFind
-- updated email package address formatting (deprecation)
-- copied email address quoting from email v2.4.3 so we're consistent
- with 2.2
-- email summary extraction now takes the first whole sentence or line -
- whichever is longer
-- documented dependency on Active State (sf bug 623959)
-- ensured there's no zero-length files in source (sf bug 633622)
-- added ID to the search page (sf bug 631601)
-- fixed filtering by id in anydbm
-- show issue ID in the headings (sf bug 631598)
-- show entire messages by default in issues (sf bug 625995)
-- fixed journalling to save old values instead of new (sorry I took so
- long, GM)
-- handle missing REQUEST_URI for cgi-bin users (sf bug 620163)

+I'm proud to release version 1.4.10 of Roundup which fixes some bugs:
+
+- Minor update of doc/developers.txt to point to the new resources
+ on www.roundup-tracker.org (Bernhard Reiter)
+- Small CSS improvements regaring the search box (thanks Thomas Arendsan Hein)
+ (issue 2550589)
+- Indexers behaviour made more consistent regarding length of indexed words
+ and stopwords (thanks Thomas Arendsen Hein, Bernhard Reiter)(issue 2550584)
+- fixed typos in the installation instructions (thanks Thomas Arendsen Hein)
+ (issue 2550573)
+- New config option csv_field_size: Pythons csv module (which is used
+ for export/import) has a new field size limit starting with python2.5.
+ We now issue a warning during export if the limit is too small and use
+ the csv_field_size configuration during import to set the limit for
+ the csv module.
+- Small fix for CGI-handling of XMLRPC requests for python2.4, this
+ worked only for 2.5 and beyond due to a change in the xmlrpc interface
+ in python
+- Document filter method of xmlrpc interface
+- Fix interaction of SSL and XMLRPC, now XMLRPC works with SSL
+
+If you're upgrading from an older version of Roundup you *must* follow
+the "Software Upgrade" guidelines given in the maintenance documentation.
+
+Roundup requires python 2.3 or later (but not 3+) for correct operation.
