4 - Listen on only IPv4 explicitly. Under ruby 1.9.3p194, without
5 any bind addresses, ruby attempts to listen on both "0.0.0.0"
6 and "::". Specifying "::" on Linux leads to listen on both IPv4
7 and IPv6, which results in a warning message saying "Address
8 already in use - bind(2)".
10 2013-12-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
13 - shogi_server/league/floodgate_thread.rb:
14 - Added a log message.
16 2013-12-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
19 - shogi-server/shogi_server/pairing.rb:
20 - Modified comment for LeastDiff match.
21 - Changed log messages and levels.
23 2013-12-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
26 - shogi_server/pairing.rb, player.rb:
27 Simplify estimated rate of unrated players (less memory).
28 - Enhanced syntax of Floodgate time configuration file.
29 Now it supports "set sacrifice <player_id>"; it sets a
30 sacrificed player for a specific Floodgate game.
31 ex. set sacrifice gps500+e293220e3f8a3e59f79f6b0efffaa931
33 2013-12-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
36 - Added a new pairing method, ShogiServer::ExcludeUnratedPlayers,
37 which filters out unrated players.
38 - Enhanced syntax of Floodgate time configuration file.
39 Now it supports "set pairing_factory <function_name>"; it sets a
40 factory function name generating a pairing method which will be
41 used in a specific Floodgate game.
42 ex. set pairing_factory floodgate_zyunisen
44 2013-11-24 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
47 - shogi_server/league/floodgate.rb: Improved robustness against
48 empty file under ruby 1.9.3p194
50 - Previously, reloading in daemon mode failed on
51 ruby 1.9.3p194. This issue has been fixed.
52 - Listen on only IPv4 explicitly. Under ruby 1.9.3p194, without
53 any bind addresses, ruby attempts to listen on both "0.0.0.0"
54 and "::". Specifying "::" on Linux leads to listen on both IPv4
55 and IPv6, which results in a warning message saying "Address
56 already in use - bind(2)".
58 - Fixed for reading Japanese comments under ruby1.9.3p194.
59 * mk_rate-from-grep, mk_rate-grep:
60 - Removed files that are no longer used.
62 2013-11-23 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
65 - gsl library may be provided as a gem
66 - Now duplicated inputs are checked and skipped.
67 * test/TC_floodgate.rb
68 - Improved randomness check so that it works on Ruby 2.0.0 as well
70 2013-11-04 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
73 - Added a new option, --ignore, which is imported from
76 - Flush after each output line.
77 * Rleased: Revision "20131104"
79 2013-09-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
82 - shogi_server/{game,time_clock}.rb:
83 When StopWatchClock is used, "Time_Unit:" of starting messages
84 in CSA protocol supplies "1min".
86 2013-04-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
89 - shogi_server/{game,time_clock}.rb:
90 Adds variations of thinking time calculation: ChessClock
91 (current) and StopWatchClock (new).
92 StopWatchClock, which is usually used at official games of human
93 professional players, is a clock where thiking time less than a
94 miniute is regarded as zero.
95 To select StopWatchClock, use a special game name with "060"
96 byoyomi time. ex. "gamename_1500_060".

101 - %%FORK command: %%FORK <source_game> [<new_buoy_game>] [<nth-move>]
102 The new_buoy_game parameter is now optional. If it is not
103 supplied, Shogi-server generates a new buoy game name from
105 - command.rb: More elaborate error messages for the %%GAME command.
107 2013-03-20 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
110 - New pairing algorithm: ShogiServer::Pairing::LeastDiff
111 This pairing algorithm aims to minimize the total differences of
112 matching players' rates. It also includes penalyties when a match
113 is same as the previous one or a match is between human players.
114 It is based on a discussion with Yamashita-san on
115 http://www.sgtpepper.net/kaneko/diary/20120511.html.
117 2013-02-23 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
120 - New command: %%FORK <source_game> <new_buoy_game> [<nth-move>]
121 Fork a new game from the posistion where the n-th (starting from
122 one) move of a source game is played. The new game should be a
123 valid buoy game name. The default value of n is the position
124 where the previous position of the last one.
125 - The objective of this command: The shogi-server may be used as
126 the back end server of computer-human match where a human player
127 plays with a real board and someone, or a proxy, inputs moves to
128 the shogi-server. If the proxy happens to enter a wrong move,
129 with this command you can restart a new buoy game from the
130 previous stable position.
131 ex. %%FORK server-denou-14400-60+p1+p2+20130223185013 buoy_denou-14400-60

184 This issue has been fixed.
186 2011-12-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
189 - shogi_server/board.rb, piece.rb: Refactoring to cache OU pieces,
190 which was inspired by 81SquareShogi-server's change
191 (74b24b88c843f1dd767412475b117481d1d5e8eb).
192 - Added shogi-server-profile to take profile of shogi-server.

216 2010-10-06 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
219 - mk_rate: the usage was not updated.
220 Thanks to Hoki-san to report this issue. (Closes: #23358)
222 2010-09-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
225 - shogi_server/board.rb, game.rb: For hadicapped games, wrong
226 initial positions were delivered to players and monitors. This
227 issue has been fixed. (Closes: #23245)
228 Thanks to HIDETCHI for reporting the issue.
230 2010-09-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
233 - shogi_server/login.rb: Enhanced the CSA Login mode.
234 Logging in the server with the CSA mode, users are now allowed to
235 specify a turn preference in an enhanced gamename string which
236 looks like <gamename>-<time>-<time>-<turn>. The first three
237 parts are a regular game definition. The last "-<turn>"
239 + Without -<turn> (i.e. same as the previous behavior), there
240 is no turn preference. A user's turn will be defined randomly.
241 + <turn> is either "B" for black or "W" for white.
243 2010-09-04 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
246 - shogi_server/{board,command,game,league,player}.rb
247 The Buoy behavior is changed.
248 + Starting a buoy game, players are notified a starting game
249 position with the initial position and moves, instead of a
251 + Players are allowed to start buoy games with specific turns.
252 ex. %%GAME buoy_foo-1500-0 +
254 2010-08-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
257 - shogi_server/command.rb: Prevent a possible password from be
258 logged in a log file when players send invalid LOGIN-like commands.
259 Thanks to Tomoyuki Kaneko for this idea.
261 2010-08-03 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
264 - sample/{check_file.rb,check_time.rb,check_time2.rb,test_time.rb}:
265 Added new files to test an issue where mtime of log files was
266 earlier than system time.
267 - shogi_server/league/floodgate_thread.rb: SetupFloodgate#start
268 now returns an instance correctly.
269 - ../shogi_server.rb, ../shogi_server/util.rb: Refactored
270 mkdir_for to Mkdir.mkdir_for.
271 - ../shogi_server/game.rb: mkdir_p will be performed in a global
272 mutex of ShogiServer::Mkdir.
274 2010-07-25 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
277 - shogi_server/command.rb:
278 + For an unknown error command log, an empty line is no longer logged.
279 + Commands specific to 81Dojo, starting with '%%%', are just
280 ignored instead of unknown command errors.
282 + Refactoring. Added test/TC_logger.rb to test
283 ShogiServer::Logger class.
284 + Fixed race condition: creating a new directory to archive
285 logs may have caused race condition, which ended up with
286 making the server unavailable. This issue has been fixed.
288 + Improved fault tolerance of the server.
290 2010-07-23 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
293 - shogi_server/league/floodgate_thread.rb: When the server run
294 with DEBUG mode, it ended up with an undefined variable error.
295 This issue has been fixed.
297 2010-07-17 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
300 - shogi_server.rb, shogi_server/board.rb, shogi_server/move.rb
301 - Refactoring: Board can now move_to() and move_back() a move
302 instead of deep_copy().
304 2010-07-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
307 - shogi_server/player.rb: Set initial values to BasicPlayer's
309 - shogi_server/league.rb: Improved performance of
310 Persistant#get_players. It took about 20 seconds for a large
311 size of players (5,300 lines in players.yaml). Now it completes in an
314 2010-06-22 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
317 - A new command line option:
318 --floodgate-names GameStringA[,GameStringB[,...]]
319 where a game string should be a valid game name such as
322 Note: Without this option, no floodgate games are started. If
323 you want floodgate-900-0 to run, which was default enabled in
324 previous versions, you need to specify the game name in this new
326 - Floodgate time configuration file:
327 You need to set starting times of floodgate groups in
328 configuration files under the top directory. Each floodgate
329 group requires a corresponding configuration file named
330 "<game_name>.conf". The file will be re-read once just after a
333 For example, a floodgate-3600-30 game group requires
334 floodgate-3600-30.conf. However, for floodgate-900-0 and
335 floodgate-3600-0, which were default enabled in previous
336 versions, configuration files are optional if you are happy with
337 default time settings.

357 - shogi_server/command.rb: Fixed an issue that MONITOR2OFF did not
358 work. Thanks to HIDECHI and koudayu.
360 2010-05-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
363 - test/*.rb: Improved performance and stability of tests
364 - shogi_server/player.rb: Help the write_thread to terminate
366 2010-05-06 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
369 - Previously mk_rate did not count in draw games. Now a draw game
370 is considered to weight 0.5 win and 0.5 loss. Respect
371 Inaniwa-shogi which strategically aims to draw.
372 - a new command line option, --skip-draw-games. In this mode, draw
373 games are just ignored as mk_rate previously did.
375 2010-04-25 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
378 - shogi_server/player.rb:
379 Log a warning message in a case that a player closes a
382 2010-04-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
385 - shogi_server/command.rb:
386 Equality of MonitorHandler class was wrong. %%MONITOROFF and
387 %%MONITOR2OFF may cause unexpected behavior. This issue has been
388 fixed. Thanks to Kota Fujiwara for reporting.
390 2010-03-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
393 - If two sequential moves from a player are identical, the last
394 one will be ignored and a game is in play. This situation might
395 happen with human players, especially on slow network,
396 impatiently sending a move twice.
398 2010-02-27 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
401 - The server now provides more accurate time control. Previously,
402 a player's thinking time included a time waiting to get the giant
403 lock. This may have caused games to time up, especially, during
406 2010-01-22 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
409 - Experimental feature: support handicapped games.
410 Game names that have the following prefixes are recognized as
411 handicapped games. Turn symbols "+" and "-" mean Uwate (expert)
412 and Shitate (beginner) respectively (i.e. Uwate players first).
413 "*" is not available.
423 2010-01-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
426 - shogi_server/command.rb, test/TC_command.rb
427 Proposal implementation of a new command called MONITOR2{ON,OFF}.
428 When the MONITOR2ON command is issued by a player, the server
429 immediately sends the player the entire contents of a record
430 file of the game, i.e. history of moves and so on, at that time.
431 Then, the server will forward subsequent moves like they are
432 appended to the record file.
433 - Behavior changed: A player monitoring a game with MONITORON will
434 not receive Game#show again when a gaming player resigns (:toryo).
436 2010-01-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
438 * Converted the repository from Subversion to Git.
440 2009-12-26 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
443 - The server can now provide multiple floodgate modes such as
444 floodgate-900-0 and floodgate-3600-0.
446 2009-12-25 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
449 - shogi-server: The command line option --floodgate-history has
450 been deprecated. The server will decide history file names such
451 as 'floodgate_history_900_0.yaml' and
452 'floodgate_history_3600_0.yaml', and then put them in the top
455 2009-12-20 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
458 - shogi_server/player.rb: Added new methods: is_human? and
460 A human player is recommended to use a name ending with '_human'.
461 ex. 'hoge_human', 'hoge_human@p1'
462 - shogi_server/pairing.rb: Added a new class:
463 StartGameWithoutHumans, which tries to make pairs trying to
464 avoid a human-human match. This is now enabled instead of the
465 previous class: StartGame.
466 - shogi-server, shogi_server/league/floodgate.rb:
467 Changed the argument of Floodgate.new.
469 2009-12-04 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
472 - The HUP signal is not supported by Ruby on Windows.
474 2009-11-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
477 - Added a new command line option: --base-date. You can specify a
478 base date to calculate rating scores. Games in the `future' are
479 ignored for the calculation.
481 2009-11-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
484 - The server logs a result of each game to a file named '00LIST',
485 which will be used to generate players.yaml. If the file does
486 not exist, the server will create one automatically.
487 Instruction to use the game result list file:
488 1. Make a list of game results from existing CSA files with
490 % ./mk_game_results dir_of_csa_files > 00LIST
491 2. Run the server. It appends a result of each game to
492 '00LIST' when the game finishes.
493 3. From the list of game results, calculate rating scores of
495 % ./mk_rate 00LIST > players.yaml
497 2009-11-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
500 - Split a pre-process collecting game results from csa files into
501 a new command, mk_game_results. Now, Generating players.yaml
502 requires two steps as follows:
503 % ./mk_game_results dir_of_csa_files > 00LIST
504 % ./mk_rate 00LIST > players.yaml
506 % ./mk_game_results dir_of_csa_files | ./mk_rate > players.yaml
509 2009-08-06 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
512 - A experimental new feature, codenamed Buoy: it allows players to
513 play a game starting with a specified position. First, a player
514 sets a buoy game with moves to a specific position. Then, two
515 players can play a new game with the game name.
517 + %%SETBUOY <game_name> <moves> [count]
519 ex. %%SETBUOY buoy_foo-900-0 +7776FU 10
520 ex. %%SETBUOY buoy_foo-1500-0 +7776FU-3334FU
521 - game_name is a valid game name with a prefix "buoy_".
523 - moves are initial moves from the Hirate position to a
524 specific position that you want to start with.
525 ex. +7776FU-3334FU+8786FU
526 - count is an optional attribute to tell how many times the
527 game can be played (default 1). The count is decremented
528 when the game finishes. If the count reaches zero, the buoy
529 game is removed automatically by the server.
531 + %%DELETEBUOY <game_name>
532 Delete a buoy game. The only owner who set up the game is
533 allowed to delete it.
534 ex. %%DELETEBUOY buoy_foo-900-0
535 - game_name is the buoy game name that was created.
536 + %%GETBUOYCOUNT <game_name>
537 Show a current count of the buoy game or -1 for non-existing
541 2009-07-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
544 - shogi_server/command.rb: refactored commands out of player.rb.
546 2009-06-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
549 - An empty floodgate_history.yaml caused a server error. This
550 issue has been fixed.
553 2009-06-17 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
556 - If a new game matched between two players is not started within
557 a certain time (default 120 seconds) (i.e. the agree_waiting or
558 start_waiting state lasts too long), the Server REJECTs the game.
561 2009-06-15 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
564 - When a Gote player AGREEd a new game and then a Sente player
565 logged out (LOGOUT), the Gote incorrectly received a LOGOUT message
566 from the server. Since Gote's state was not AGREEd or STARTed yet,
567 the Gote should be REJECTed. This issue has been fixed.
570 2009-06-14 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
573 - The Board could not recognize a certain pattern of
574 Oute-Sennichite. This issue has been fixed.
577 2009-03-22 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
579 * [utils/correct-bug14635.rb]
580 - Added a new file. This program corrects illegal lines introduced
583 2009-03-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
586 - Improved performance.
588 2009-02-15 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
591 - A duplicated comment that is the one of the previous (or older)
592 move might be erroneously recorded in a csa file. This issue has
593 been fixed. (Closes: #15080)
595 2009-02-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
597 * [utils/csa-filter.rb]
598 - Added a new file. This program filters CSA files.
600 2009-02-01 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
603 - The shogi-server records csa files of games in an illegal
604 format. This issue has been fixed. (Closes: #14635)
605 - A ##[MONITOR] command for showing a game result such as %TORYO
606 was not correct. This issue has been fixed.

611 - It failed to proccess a game result, OuteKaihiMoreWin where a
612 checked king does not escape. This issue has been fixed.
614 2009-01-02 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
617 - shogi_server/timeout_queue.rb: the timeout parameter of the
618 constructor was not respected erroneously. This issue
620 - shogi_server/players.rb: When a player was finishing with its
621 write socket broken, there was a chance that the thread of the
622 player in the giant lock had to wait for a long time (about 20
623 seconds), which might cause threads of other players stop and
624 time out. (Closes: #14469)
626 2008-12-30 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
629 - Added a new option: --footer filename, which inserts contents of
630 the filename at the bottom of a generated page. A text specific to
631 wdoor should be written by using this option.
633 - It does no more depend on RDoc. RDoc::usage does not work well
636 2008-12-28 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
639 - Check kifu files more carefully so that files that contain
640 incomplete records are skipped.
641 - mk_rate might have failed to alloc due to out of memory. Now it
642 consumes less memory (about 200MB instead of 2GB).
643 - File names can be put into STDIN instead of specifying directory
644 names in command line arguments.
646 - New file. It filters kifu files and is of use for a pre-filter
649 2008-12-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
652 - Improved an existance check and etc. of directories specified
653 by command line options, especially in case of the daemon mode.
655 - A rotated log file is moved to $topdir/YYYY/MM/DD.
658 2008-11-27 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
661 - Added sample/*.sh for command line samples.
663 2008-11-24 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
666 - Added a new option --floodgate-history, which allows users to
667 specify a file name that stores the records of games. The
668 records are taken care of when games are matched.
670 2008-10-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
672 * [utils/eval_graph.rb]
673 - Display time control graphs as well.
674 Thanks to Nishimura-san for this idea.
677 2008-10-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
680 - Ruby 1.8.7 (or later) must be used. Ruby 1.8.6 is not supported.
681 - Daemon mode is available.
682 - shogi_server/piece_ky.rb is again merged with
683 shogi_server/piece.rb, then has been removed.
684 - Added a test case, TC_usi.rb.
686 2008-06-30 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
689 - Added a new option --player-log-dir, which allows users to log
690 messages that are received or sent to the wire.
692 2008-06-28 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
695 - A rating comment line is now written before the first move in a
696 record file instead of after the last move, which allows other
697 applications watching a game to recognize players in the middle
698 of the game. (Closes #12821)
699 - If a player, including a monitor, stuck at the time of sending
700 messages to the wire, which means that the giant lock was locked,
701 it might have prevented other players from processing until
702 timeout occurred. This issue has been fixed. (Closes #12555)
704 2008-06-27 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
707 - Pairing players might not have shuffled players because of
708 poor shuffling algorithm. This issue has been fixed.
711 2008-06-25 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
714 - Check invalid arguments. (Closes: #12856)
716 2008-06-23 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
719 - Added a new option: --fixed-rate and --fixed-rate-player
720 whose rate always results in that rate. (Closes: #12800)
722 2008-06-06 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
725 - The source has been splited to multiple sub files.
726 - The program now depends on rubygems and activesupport.
727 - The program can reload the source files on the flight, by
728 sending a HUP signal to the server.
729 - The server log will be rotated daily.
731 2008-05-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
734 - Last game results (win or lose) of x1 players were not
735 available on the next game. This issue has been fixed.
736 Thanks to Tomoyuki Kaneko for debugging.
737 - For draw games, "'rating" line in a .csa file was
738 wrong (meaningless). This issue has been fixed.
740 2008-05-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
743 - The repository has been converted from CVS to Subversion.
745 2008-05-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
748 - Floodgate's thread could cause an error when players.yaml was
749 cleared by another program (mk_rate). This issue has been
751 - Give default values to BasicPlayer, which fixed undefined
752 method error in Pairing.
754 2008-05-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
757 - The server could not recognize uchifuzume as an illegal move.
758 This bug has been fixed.
759 - The server crashed by an undefined method error.
760 This issue has been fixed.
762 2008-05-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
765 - .csa files will be located in a sub directory such as
766 "2008/05/05/*.csa". These days, we have many games in a day.
767 This change will help users browse a file list.
769 2008-05-03 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
772 - Show players who have accessed in the last 30 minutes with
775 2008-04-22 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
778 - When YSS was not rated on the wdoor mode, wrong rate24 scores
779 were displayed. This issue has been fixed. Now YSS absence
782 2008-04-21 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
785 - The half-life period is now configurable.
786 ex $ ./mk_rate --half-life 14 --half-life-ignore 7 <records>
788 2008-04-12 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
791 - Renamed variables (@id) since they caused Ruby's warning.
793 2008-04-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
796 - Improved a way to handle diferred moves (2008-03-24's change),
797 based on Tomoyuki Kaneko's patch.
799 2008-04-01 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
802 - An incorrect LOGIN crashed the server. This issue has been
805 2008-03-24 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
808 - Converting characters for comments in moves caused an error. This
809 issue has been fixed.
810 - If a player moves in the opponent's turn, it is illegal. But the
811 current CSA protocol does not clearly define a way to tell so to
812 the players. This shogi-server internally keeps such a move in a
813 buffer and replay it when the player of the move gets his/her
816 2008-03-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
819 - Erroneously, Board#to_s's current player was always Black.
820 It caused wrong determination of sennichite since it did not
821 care about the current player of a state. This has been fixed.
822 Thanks Takada-san for reporting this bug.
824 2008-03-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
826 * [util/players-graph.rb]
827 - Applied Kaneko-san's patch, which also shows expected-rate24
829 - Small PNG gets smaller.
831 2008-03-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
834 - Added an option --wdoor. In this mode, a rate expected at Shogi
835 Club 24 is calculated from YSS's rating (he is 2400 now).
837 2008-03-04 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
840 - If the computed ratings do not stabilize, then mk_rate aborts.
841 $ ./mk_rate dir && ./mk_rate dir > players.yaml
842 can avoid rewriting the invalid ratings to the file.
844 2008-02-23 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
847 - A comment is converted to EUC-JP and then written in a log.
848 Note that this conversion guesses the input encoding. Clients
849 are recommended to send EUC-JP compatible strings to the
852 2008-02-21 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
854 * [util/players-graph.rb]
855 - Released. Draw a chart for a player's rating score.
857 2008-02-17 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
860 - An illegal teban specified for Floodgate login could crash the
861 server. This issue has been fixed.
863 2008-02-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
866 - Thread.abort_on_exception is now false, meaning that
867 a thread's abort does not affect the others.
868 - The uchifuzume check did not generate promoting moves, which
869 could crash the server with illegal moves. This issue has
872 2008-02-14 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
875 - Added a new pairing variation, Swiss-like style. Winners at the
876 previous games (his/her point of view, not the server's) are
877 paired first, and then the others are matched. This is the
879 - Pairing classes are located in a separate source file,
880 pairing.rb. The file is 'load'ed each time to be used,
881 meaning that modifying the code will be applied to a running
883 - You can specify a single player who will be out of pairing
884 when there are odd players waiting for Floodgate.
886 2008-02-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
889 - When there are odd players wating for Floodgate, the random
890 pairing deletes the player who has ever played the most games.
892 2008-02-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
895 - For the Not-Yet-Rated group, those who have not connected
896 recently are not listed.
898 - Floodgate's thread checks the current time each 10 secs.
900 2008-02-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
902 * [mk_rate] [mk_html]
903 - Display not-yet-rated players as well.
905 - Use Yahoo! UI Library.
907 2008-02-04 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
909 * [shogi-server] [webserver]
910 - In the daemon mode, if the specified directory was a relative
911 path, the server could fail to start with a permission denied
912 error. This issue has been fixed. The path is interpreted as
913 an absolute path before switching to daemon.
914 - In the daemon mode, a wrong process id was written in
915 '--pid-file'. This issue has been fixed. Also, the pid file
916 will be removed when the server shuts down.
918 2008-02-03 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
921 - Game names that are recognized as the floodgate mode are now
922 /^floodgate-\d+-\d+$/.
923 - Floodgate could not schedule the next time when it was the next
924 day. This issue has been fixed.
926 2008-02-02 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
929 - Implemented a new feature, Floodgate mode, for covenience with
930 public rating games. Now there is a special game "wdoor-900-0".
931 Matching players for that game is scheduled each 30 minitues.
933 2007-11-03 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
936 - Support Ruby 1.8.6 patch level 111 (or higher) and GSL 1.10 (or higher).
937 It may not work with lower verions.
939 2007-09-06 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
942 - The logic to detect Oute-Sennichite was not complete. Both players
943 (checking side and escaping side) may cause Oute-Sennichite. The old
944 logic only cared for the checking player. This issue has been fixed.
946 2007-06-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
949 - Initial version. This web server is an interface between HTTP and
950 shogi-server. Shogi-server commands will be available over HTTP. As
951 of now %%LIST and %%WHO commands are supported.
953 - Bumped up GAME_LIMIT (from 10) to 15 because the calculation of
954 rates sometimes went wrong (infinite values).
956 2007-04-21 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
959 - Implemented `CHALLENGE' command, and the server will respond with
960 `CHALLENGE ACCEPTED'. Note that this command is dummy for this server
961 because it is only available for CSA's official testing server and does
962 not belong to the CSA standard protocol. Therefor, when clients receive
963 `CHALLENGE ACCEPTED' from this server, they must ignore it.
964 - Show revision in a start up message.
966 2007-04-01 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
969 - Implemented one of the keepalive protocol in CSA protocol; If clients
970 send LF, the server sends back LF.
971 - More care for socket errors.
973 2007-03-27 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
975 * [mk_rate] When there were too few games to rate players (i.e. no
976 player to rate), mk_rate caused an error. Now it no longer shows
979 2007-03-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
981 * [mk_html] Popup shows additional information.
983 2007-03-02 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
986 - Use WEBrick for server framework.
987 - Daemon mode is available.
989 2007-02-26 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
992 - Failed to show usage. This issue has been fixed.
993 - Initial start of the server failed beacause of empty players.yaml.
994 This issues has been fixed.
996 2007-02-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
999 - Show groups in the order specified in players.html.
1000 - Players who gamed recently have a background color.
1002 - Implemented half-life effect. Numbers of win/lose decrease by this effect.
1004 2006-11-26 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1006 * [shogi-server] Sente (gote) was able to move gote's (sente's) hand.
1007 That move should be illegal. This issue has been fixed.
1009 2006-11-01 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1011 * [mk_rate] Skip "abnormal" games, which were finished because of
1012 network failure or communication error. Recently some programs seem
1013 to have a lot of tries to connect to the Shogi Server at wdoor for
1014 debugging. We should ignore such games for a while to get a meaningful
1017 2006-10-30 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1019 * [mk_rate][mk_html]
1020 - Put players into "connected" groups in order to
1021 show a correct, meaningful rating. In the group, each player has at
1022 least a game with other players.
1023 - The format of players.yaml was updated.
1024 * [shogi-server] Followed the new format of players.yaml.
1026 2006-10-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1028 * [mk_rate] Corrected making win_loss_matrix.
1030 2006-10-02 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1032 * [mk_rate] players who never win or lose are not rated in order
1033 the calculation to complete.
1035 2006-09-30 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1037 * [shogi-server] The CSA mode supports the trip in a password.
1039 2006-09-22 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1041 * [shogi-server] Refactored the login procedures.
1043 2006-09-21 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1045 * [mk_rate] It failed parse draw games. Now this bug has been fixed.
1046 * [mk_html] Add CSS to look better.
1048 2006-09-15 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1051 - Remove the trip in a password. Now the password is hashed.
1053 - Support @NORATE syntax in a name, which avoids the player is
1056 2006-09-09 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1059 - Support a new command, %%VERSION. It shows the server's revision#.
1061 2006-09-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1064 - Re-design: trip is now a suffix of the password, not name.
1065 - Simplified the output of %%RATING.
1067 - Support "@" indentificaton in a name; players with same
1068 before-@-names are mapped to one.
1070 2006-09-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1072 * [mk_rate] Fix a bug. It solves the correct rate.
1074 2006-08-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1076 * [mk_rate] Re-design.
1077 - Correct the equations.
1078 - Apply deaccelerated Newton method.

1107 * Fix the max length of the login name with a trip.
1108 * Add a comment line about the rated game status in the CSA file.
1109 * Remove the rating system, which will be calculated by another
1112 2006-08-01 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1114 * Add a command, %%RATING, to show a ranking sorted by rates.
1116 2006-07-31 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
