4 - shogi_server/pairing.rb, player.rb:
5 Simplify estimated rate of unrated players (less memory).
6 - Enhanced syntax of Floodgate time configuration file.
7 Now it supports "set sacrifice <player_id>"; it sets a
8 sacrificed player for a specific Floodgate game.
9 ex. set sacrifice gps500+e293220e3f8a3e59f79f6b0efffaa931
11 2013-12-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
14 - Added a new pairing method, ShogiServer::ExcludeUnratedPlayers,
15 which filters out unrated players.
16 - Enhanced syntax of Floodgate time configuration file.
17 Now it supports "set pairing_factory <function_name>"; it sets a
18 factory function name generating a pairing method which will be
19 used in a specific Floodgate game.
20 ex. set pairing_factory floodgate_zyunisen
22 2013-11-24 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
25 - shogi_server/league/floodgate.rb: Improved robustness against
26 empty file under ruby 1.9.3p194
28 - Previously, reloading in daemon mode failed on
29 ruby 1.9.3p194. This issue has been fixed.
30 - Listen on only IPv4 explicitly. Under ruby 1.9.3p194, without
31 any bind addresses, ruby attempts to listen on both "0.0.0.0"
32 and "::". Specifying "::" on Linux leads to listen on both IPv4
33 and IPv6, which results in a warning message saying "Address
34 already in use - bind(2)".
36 - Fixed for reading Japanese comments under ruby1.9.3p194.
37 * mk_rate-from-grep, mk_rate-grep:
38 - Removed files that are no longer used.
40 2013-11-23 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
43 - gsl library may be provided as a gem
44 - Now duplicated inputs are checked and skipped.
45 * test/TC_floodgate.rb
46 - Improved randomness check so that it works on Ruby 2.0.0 as well
48 2013-11-04 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
51 - Added a new option, --ignore, which is imported from
54 - Flush after each output line.
55 * Rleased: Revision "20131104"
57 2013-09-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
60 - shogi_server/{game,time_clock}.rb:
61 When StopWatchClock is used, "Time_Unit:" of starting messages
62 in CSA protocol supplies "1min".
64 2013-04-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
67 - shogi_server/{game,time_clock}.rb:
68 Adds variations of thinking time calculation: ChessClock
69 (current) and StopWatchClock (new).
70 StopWatchClock, which is usually used at official games of human
71 professional players, is a clock where thiking time less than a
72 miniute is regarded as zero.
73 To select StopWatchClock, use a special game name with "060"
74 byoyomi time. ex. "gamename_1500_060".
76 2013-03-31 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
79 - %%FORK command: %%FORK <source_game> [<new_buoy_game>] [<nth-move>]
80 The new_buoy_game parameter is now optional. If it is not
81 supplied, Shogi-server generates a new buoy game name from
83 - command.rb: More elaborate error messages for the %%GAME command.
85 2013-03-20 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
88 - New pairing algorithm: ShogiServer::Pairing::LeastDiff
89 This pairing algorithm aims to minimize the total differences of
90 matching players' rates. It also includes penalyties when a match
91 is same as the previous one or a match is between human players.
92 It is based on a discussion with Yamashita-san on
93 http://www.sgtpepper.net/kaneko/diary/20120511.html.
95 2013-02-23 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
98 - New command: %%FORK <source_game> <new_buoy_game> [<nth-move>]
99 Fork a new game from the posistion where the n-th (starting from
100 one) move of a source game is played. The new game should be a
101 valid buoy game name. The default value of n is the position
102 where the previous position of the last one.
103 - The objective of this command: The shogi-server may be used as
104 the back end server of computer-human match where a human player
105 plays with a real board and someone, or a proxy, inputs moves to
106 the shogi-server. If the proxy happens to enter a wrong move,
107 with this command you can restart a new buoy game from the
108 previous stable position.
109 ex. %%FORK server-denou-14400-60+p1+p2+20130223185013 buoy_denou-14400-60

160 - shogi_server/floodgate.rb: Generating next time around the new
161 year day by reading configuration files did not work correctly.
162 This issue has been fixed.
164 2011-12-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
167 - shogi_server/board.rb, piece.rb: Refactoring to cache OU pieces,
168 which was inspired by 81SquareShogi-server's change
169 (74b24b88c843f1dd767412475b117481d1d5e8eb).
170 - Added shogi-server-profile to take profile of shogi-server.
171 * [mk_rate] [mk_game_results]

194 2010-10-06 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
197 - mk_rate: the usage was not updated.
198 Thanks to Hoki-san to report this issue. (Closes: #23358)
200 2010-09-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
203 - shogi_server/board.rb, game.rb: For hadicapped games, wrong
204 initial positions were delivered to players and monitors. This
205 issue has been fixed. (Closes: #23245)
206 Thanks to HIDETCHI for reporting the issue.
208 2010-09-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
211 - shogi_server/login.rb: Enhanced the CSA Login mode.
212 Logging in the server with the CSA mode, users are now allowed to
213 specify a turn preference in an enhanced gamename string which
214 looks like <gamename>-<time>-<time>-<turn>. The first three
215 parts are a regular game definition. The last "-<turn>"
217 + Without -<turn> (i.e. same as the previous behavior), there
218 is no turn preference. A user's turn will be defined randomly.
219 + <turn> is either "B" for black or "W" for white.
221 2010-09-04 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
224 - shogi_server/{board,command,game,league,player}.rb
225 The Buoy behavior is changed.
226 + Starting a buoy game, players are notified a starting game
227 position with the initial position and moves, instead of a
229 + Players are allowed to start buoy games with specific turns.
230 ex. %%GAME buoy_foo-1500-0 +
232 2010-08-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
235 - shogi_server/command.rb: Prevent a possible password from be
236 logged in a log file when players send invalid LOGIN-like commands.
237 Thanks to Tomoyuki Kaneko for this idea.
239 2010-08-03 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
242 - sample/{check_file.rb,check_time.rb,check_time2.rb,test_time.rb}:
243 Added new files to test an issue where mtime of log files was
244 earlier than system time.
245 - shogi_server/league/floodgate_thread.rb: SetupFloodgate#start
246 now returns an instance correctly.
247 - ../shogi_server.rb, ../shogi_server/util.rb: Refactored
248 mkdir_for to Mkdir.mkdir_for.
249 - ../shogi_server/game.rb: mkdir_p will be performed in a global
250 mutex of ShogiServer::Mkdir.
252 2010-07-25 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
255 - shogi_server/command.rb:
256 + For an unknown error command log, an empty line is no longer logged.
257 + Commands specific to 81Dojo, starting with '%%%', are just
258 ignored instead of unknown command errors.
260 + Refactoring. Added test/TC_logger.rb to test
261 ShogiServer::Logger class.
262 + Fixed race condition: creating a new directory to archive
263 logs may have caused race condition, which ended up with
264 making the server unavailable. This issue has been fixed.
266 + Improved fault tolerance of the server.
268 2010-07-23 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
271 - shogi_server/league/floodgate_thread.rb: When the server run
272 with DEBUG mode, it ended up with an undefined variable error.
273 This issue has been fixed.
275 2010-07-17 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
278 - shogi_server.rb, shogi_server/board.rb, shogi_server/move.rb
279 - Refactoring: Board can now move_to() and move_back() a move
280 instead of deep_copy().
282 2010-07-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
285 - shogi_server/player.rb: Set initial values to BasicPlayer's
287 - shogi_server/league.rb: Improved performance of
288 Persistant#get_players. It took about 20 seconds for a large
289 size of players (5,300 lines in players.yaml). Now it completes in an
292 2010-06-22 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
295 - A new command line option:
296 --floodgate-names GameStringA[,GameStringB[,...]]
297 where a game string should be a valid game name such as
300 Note: Without this option, no floodgate games are started. If
301 you want floodgate-900-0 to run, which was default enabled in
302 previous versions, you need to specify the game name in this new
304 - Floodgate time configuration file:
305 You need to set starting times of floodgate groups in
306 configuration files under the top directory. Each floodgate
307 group requires a corresponding configuration file named
308 "<game_name>.conf". The file will be re-read once just after a
311 For example, a floodgate-3600-30 game group requires
312 floodgate-3600-30.conf. However, for floodgate-900-0 and
313 floodgate-3600-0, which were default enabled in previous
314 versions, configuration files are optional if you are happy with
315 default time settings.

335 - shogi_server/command.rb: Fixed an issue that MONITOR2OFF did not
336 work. Thanks to HIDECHI and koudayu.
338 2010-05-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
341 - test/*.rb: Improved performance and stability of tests
342 - shogi_server/player.rb: Help the write_thread to terminate
344 2010-05-06 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
347 - Previously mk_rate did not count in draw games. Now a draw game
348 is considered to weight 0.5 win and 0.5 loss. Respect
349 Inaniwa-shogi which strategically aims to draw.
350 - a new command line option, --skip-draw-games. In this mode, draw
351 games are just ignored as mk_rate previously did.
353 2010-04-25 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
356 - shogi_server/player.rb:
357 Log a warning message in a case that a player closes a
360 2010-04-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
363 - shogi_server/command.rb:
364 Equality of MonitorHandler class was wrong. %%MONITOROFF and
365 %%MONITOR2OFF may cause unexpected behavior. This issue has been
366 fixed. Thanks to Kota Fujiwara for reporting.
368 2010-03-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
371 - If two sequential moves from a player are identical, the last
372 one will be ignored and a game is in play. This situation might
373 happen with human players, especially on slow network,
374 impatiently sending a move twice.
376 2010-02-27 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
379 - The server now provides more accurate time control. Previously,
380 a player's thinking time included a time waiting to get the giant
381 lock. This may have caused games to time up, especially, during
384 2010-01-22 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
387 - Experimental feature: support handicapped games.
388 Game names that have the following prefixes are recognized as
389 handicapped games. Turn symbols "+" and "-" mean Uwate (expert)
390 and Shitate (beginner) respectively (i.e. Uwate players first).
391 "*" is not available.
401 2010-01-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
404 - shogi_server/command.rb, test/TC_command.rb
405 Proposal implementation of a new command called MONITOR2{ON,OFF}.
406 When the MONITOR2ON command is issued by a player, the server
407 immediately sends the player the entire contents of a record
408 file of the game, i.e. history of moves and so on, at that time.
409 Then, the server will forward subsequent moves like they are
410 appended to the record file.
411 - Behavior changed: A player monitoring a game with MONITORON will
412 not receive Game#show again when a gaming player resigns (:toryo).
414 2010-01-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
416 * Converted the repository from Subversion to Git.
418 2009-12-26 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
421 - The server can now provide multiple floodgate modes such as
422 floodgate-900-0 and floodgate-3600-0.
424 2009-12-25 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
427 - shogi-server: The command line option --floodgate-history has
428 been deprecated. The server will decide history file names such
429 as 'floodgate_history_900_0.yaml' and
430 'floodgate_history_3600_0.yaml', and then put them in the top
433 2009-12-20 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
436 - shogi_server/player.rb: Added new methods: is_human? and
438 A human player is recommended to use a name ending with '_human'.
439 ex. 'hoge_human', 'hoge_human@p1'
440 - shogi_server/pairing.rb: Added a new class:
441 StartGameWithoutHumans, which tries to make pairs trying to
442 avoid a human-human match. This is now enabled instead of the
443 previous class: StartGame.
444 - shogi-server, shogi_server/league/floodgate.rb:
445 Changed the argument of Floodgate.new.
447 2009-12-04 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
450 - The HUP signal is not supported by Ruby on Windows.
452 2009-11-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
455 - Added a new command line option: --base-date. You can specify a
456 base date to calculate rating scores. Games in the `future' are
457 ignored for the calculation.
459 2009-11-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
462 - The server logs a result of each game to a file named '00LIST',
463 which will be used to generate players.yaml. If the file does
464 not exist, the server will create one automatically.
465 Instruction to use the game result list file:
466 1. Make a list of game results from existing CSA files with
468 % ./mk_game_results dir_of_csa_files > 00LIST
469 2. Run the server. It appends a result of each game to
470 '00LIST' when the game finishes.
471 3. From the list of game results, calculate rating scores of
473 % ./mk_rate 00LIST > players.yaml
475 2009-11-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
478 - Split a pre-process collecting game results from csa files into
479 a new command, mk_game_results. Now, Generating players.yaml
480 requires two steps as follows:
481 % ./mk_game_results dir_of_csa_files > 00LIST
482 % ./mk_rate 00LIST > players.yaml
484 % ./mk_game_results dir_of_csa_files | ./mk_rate > players.yaml
487 2009-08-06 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
490 - A experimental new feature, codenamed Buoy: it allows players to
491 play a game starting with a specified position. First, a player
492 sets a buoy game with moves to a specific position. Then, two
493 players can play a new game with the game name.
495 + %%SETBUOY <game_name> <moves> [count]
497 ex. %%SETBUOY buoy_foo-900-0 +7776FU 10
498 ex. %%SETBUOY buoy_foo-1500-0 +7776FU-3334FU
499 - game_name is a valid game name with a prefix "buoy_".
501 - moves are initial moves from the Hirate position to a
502 specific position that you want to start with.
503 ex. +7776FU-3334FU+8786FU
504 - count is an optional attribute to tell how many times the
505 game can be played (default 1). The count is decremented
506 when the game finishes. If the count reaches zero, the buoy
507 game is removed automatically by the server.
509 + %%DELETEBUOY <game_name>
510 Delete a buoy game. The only owner who set up the game is
511 allowed to delete it.
512 ex. %%DELETEBUOY buoy_foo-900-0
513 - game_name is the buoy game name that was created.
514 + %%GETBUOYCOUNT <game_name>
515 Show a current count of the buoy game or -1 for non-existing
519 2009-07-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
522 - shogi_server/command.rb: refactored commands out of player.rb.
524 2009-06-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
527 - An empty floodgate_history.yaml caused a server error. This
528 issue has been fixed.
531 2009-06-17 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
534 - If a new game matched between two players is not started within
535 a certain time (default 120 seconds) (i.e. the agree_waiting or
536 start_waiting state lasts too long), the Server REJECTs the game.
539 2009-06-15 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
542 - When a Gote player AGREEd a new game and then a Sente player
543 logged out (LOGOUT), the Gote incorrectly received a LOGOUT message
544 from the server. Since Gote's state was not AGREEd or STARTed yet,
545 the Gote should be REJECTed. This issue has been fixed.
548 2009-06-14 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
551 - The Board could not recognize a certain pattern of
552 Oute-Sennichite. This issue has been fixed.
555 2009-03-22 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
557 * [utils/correct-bug14635.rb]
558 - Added a new file. This program corrects illegal lines introduced
561 2009-03-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
564 - Improved performance.
566 2009-02-15 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
569 - A duplicated comment that is the one of the previous (or older)
570 move might be erroneously recorded in a csa file. This issue has
571 been fixed. (Closes: #15080)
573 2009-02-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
575 * [utils/csa-filter.rb]
576 - Added a new file. This program filters CSA files.
578 2009-02-01 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
581 - The shogi-server records csa files of games in an illegal
582 format. This issue has been fixed. (Closes: #14635)
583 - A ##[MONITOR] command for showing a game result such as %TORYO
584 was not correct. This issue has been fixed.
586 2009-01-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
589 - It failed to proccess a game result, OuteKaihiMoreWin where a
590 checked king does not escape. This issue has been fixed.
592 2009-01-02 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
595 - shogi_server/timeout_queue.rb: the timeout parameter of the
596 constructor was not respected erroneously. This issue
598 - shogi_server/players.rb: When a player was finishing with its
599 write socket broken, there was a chance that the thread of the
600 player in the giant lock had to wait for a long time (about 20
601 seconds), which might cause threads of other players stop and
602 time out. (Closes: #14469)
604 2008-12-30 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
607 - Added a new option: --footer filename, which inserts contents of
608 the filename at the bottom of a generated page. A text specific to
609 wdoor should be written by using this option.
611 - It does no more depend on RDoc. RDoc::usage does not work well
614 2008-12-28 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
617 - Check kifu files more carefully so that files that contain
618 incomplete records are skipped.
619 - mk_rate might have failed to alloc due to out of memory. Now it
620 consumes less memory (about 200MB instead of 2GB).
621 - File names can be put into STDIN instead of specifying directory
622 names in command line arguments.
624 - New file. It filters kifu files and is of use for a pre-filter
627 2008-12-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
630 - Improved an existance check and etc. of directories specified
631 by command line options, especially in case of the daemon mode.
633 - A rotated log file is moved to $topdir/YYYY/MM/DD.
636 2008-11-27 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
639 - Added sample/*.sh for command line samples.
641 2008-11-24 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
644 - Added a new option --floodgate-history, which allows users to
645 specify a file name that stores the records of games. The
646 records are taken care of when games are matched.
648 2008-10-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
650 * [utils/eval_graph.rb]
651 - Display time control graphs as well.
652 Thanks to Nishimura-san for this idea.
655 2008-10-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
658 - Ruby 1.8.7 (or later) must be used. Ruby 1.8.6 is not supported.
659 - Daemon mode is available.
660 - shogi_server/piece_ky.rb is again merged with
661 shogi_server/piece.rb, then has been removed.
662 - Added a test case, TC_usi.rb.
664 2008-06-30 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
667 - Added a new option --player-log-dir, which allows users to log
668 messages that are received or sent to the wire.
670 2008-06-28 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
673 - A rating comment line is now written before the first move in a
674 record file instead of after the last move, which allows other
675 applications watching a game to recognize players in the middle
676 of the game. (Closes #12821)
677 - If a player, including a monitor, stuck at the time of sending
678 messages to the wire, which means that the giant lock was locked,
679 it might have prevented other players from processing until
680 timeout occurred. This issue has been fixed. (Closes #12555)
682 2008-06-27 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
685 - Pairing players might not have shuffled players because of
686 poor shuffling algorithm. This issue has been fixed.
689 2008-06-25 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
692 - Check invalid arguments. (Closes: #12856)
694 2008-06-23 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
697 - Added a new option: --fixed-rate and --fixed-rate-player
698 whose rate always results in that rate. (Closes: #12800)
700 2008-06-06 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
703 - The source has been splited to multiple sub files.
704 - The program now depends on rubygems and activesupport.
705 - The program can reload the source files on the flight, by
706 sending a HUP signal to the server.
707 - The server log will be rotated daily.
709 2008-05-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
712 - Last game results (win or lose) of x1 players were not
713 available on the next game. This issue has been fixed.
714 Thanks to Tomoyuki Kaneko for debugging.
715 - For draw games, "'rating" line in a .csa file was
716 wrong (meaningless). This issue has been fixed.
718 2008-05-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
721 - The repository has been converted from CVS to Subversion.
723 2008-05-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
726 - Floodgate's thread could cause an error when players.yaml was
727 cleared by another program (mk_rate). This issue has been
729 - Give default values to BasicPlayer, which fixed undefined
730 method error in Pairing.
732 2008-05-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
735 - The server could not recognize uchifuzume as an illegal move.
736 This bug has been fixed.
737 - The server crashed by an undefined method error.
738 This issue has been fixed.
740 2008-05-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
743 - .csa files will be located in a sub directory such as
744 "2008/05/05/*.csa". These days, we have many games in a day.
745 This change will help users browse a file list.
747 2008-05-03 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
750 - Show players who have accessed in the last 30 minutes with
753 2008-04-22 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
756 - When YSS was not rated on the wdoor mode, wrong rate24 scores
757 were displayed. This issue has been fixed. Now YSS absence
760 2008-04-21 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
763 - The half-life period is now configurable.
764 ex $ ./mk_rate --half-life 14 --half-life-ignore 7 <records>
766 2008-04-12 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
769 - Renamed variables (@id) since they caused Ruby's warning.
771 2008-04-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
774 - Improved a way to handle diferred moves (2008-03-24's change),
775 based on Tomoyuki Kaneko's patch.
777 2008-04-01 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
780 - An incorrect LOGIN crashed the server. This issue has been
783 2008-03-24 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
786 - Converting characters for comments in moves caused an error. This
787 issue has been fixed.
788 - If a player moves in the opponent's turn, it is illegal. But the
789 current CSA protocol does not clearly define a way to tell so to
790 the players. This shogi-server internally keeps such a move in a
791 buffer and replay it when the player of the move gets his/her
794 2008-03-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
797 - Erroneously, Board#to_s's current player was always Black.
798 It caused wrong determination of sennichite since it did not
799 care about the current player of a state. This has been fixed.
800 Thanks Takada-san for reporting this bug.
802 2008-03-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
804 * [util/players-graph.rb]
805 - Applied Kaneko-san's patch, which also shows expected-rate24
807 - Small PNG gets smaller.
809 2008-03-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
812 - Added an option --wdoor. In this mode, a rate expected at Shogi
813 Club 24 is calculated from YSS's rating (he is 2400 now).
815 2008-03-04 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
818 - If the computed ratings do not stabilize, then mk_rate aborts.
819 $ ./mk_rate dir && ./mk_rate dir > players.yaml
820 can avoid rewriting the invalid ratings to the file.
822 2008-02-23 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
825 - A comment is converted to EUC-JP and then written in a log.
826 Note that this conversion guesses the input encoding. Clients
827 are recommended to send EUC-JP compatible strings to the
830 2008-02-21 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
832 * [util/players-graph.rb]
833 - Released. Draw a chart for a player's rating score.
835 2008-02-17 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
838 - An illegal teban specified for Floodgate login could crash the
839 server. This issue has been fixed.
841 2008-02-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
844 - Thread.abort_on_exception is now false, meaning that
845 a thread's abort does not affect the others.
846 - The uchifuzume check did not generate promoting moves, which
847 could crash the server with illegal moves. This issue has
850 2008-02-14 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
853 - Added a new pairing variation, Swiss-like style. Winners at the
854 previous games (his/her point of view, not the server's) are
855 paired first, and then the others are matched. This is the
857 - Pairing classes are located in a separate source file,
858 pairing.rb. The file is 'load'ed each time to be used,
859 meaning that modifying the code will be applied to a running
861 - You can specify a single player who will be out of pairing
862 when there are odd players waiting for Floodgate.
864 2008-02-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
867 - When there are odd players wating for Floodgate, the random
868 pairing deletes the player who has ever played the most games.
870 2008-02-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
873 - For the Not-Yet-Rated group, those who have not connected
874 recently are not listed.
876 - Floodgate's thread checks the current time each 10 secs.
878 2008-02-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
880 * [mk_rate] [mk_html]
881 - Display not-yet-rated players as well.
883 - Use Yahoo! UI Library.
885 2008-02-04 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
887 * [shogi-server] [webserver]
888 - In the daemon mode, if the specified directory was a relative
889 path, the server could fail to start with a permission denied
890 error. This issue has been fixed. The path is interpreted as
891 an absolute path before switching to daemon.
892 - In the daemon mode, a wrong process id was written in
893 '--pid-file'. This issue has been fixed. Also, the pid file
894 will be removed when the server shuts down.
896 2008-02-03 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
899 - Game names that are recognized as the floodgate mode are now
900 /^floodgate-\d+-\d+$/.
901 - Floodgate could not schedule the next time when it was the next
902 day. This issue has been fixed.
904 2008-02-02 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
907 - Implemented a new feature, Floodgate mode, for covenience with
908 public rating games. Now there is a special game "wdoor-900-0".
909 Matching players for that game is scheduled each 30 minitues.
911 2007-11-03 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
914 - Support Ruby 1.8.6 patch level 111 (or higher) and GSL 1.10 (or higher).
915 It may not work with lower verions.
917 2007-09-06 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
920 - The logic to detect Oute-Sennichite was not complete. Both players
921 (checking side and escaping side) may cause Oute-Sennichite. The old
922 logic only cared for the checking player. This issue has been fixed.
924 2007-06-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
927 - Initial version. This web server is an interface between HTTP and
928 shogi-server. Shogi-server commands will be available over HTTP. As
929 of now %%LIST and %%WHO commands are supported.
931 - Bumped up GAME_LIMIT (from 10) to 15 because the calculation of
932 rates sometimes went wrong (infinite values).
934 2007-04-21 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
937 - Implemented `CHALLENGE' command, and the server will respond with
938 `CHALLENGE ACCEPTED'. Note that this command is dummy for this server
939 because it is only available for CSA's official testing server and does
940 not belong to the CSA standard protocol. Therefor, when clients receive
941 `CHALLENGE ACCEPTED' from this server, they must ignore it.
942 - Show revision in a start up message.
944 2007-04-01 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
947 - Implemented one of the keepalive protocol in CSA protocol; If clients
948 send LF, the server sends back LF.
949 - More care for socket errors.
951 2007-03-27 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
953 * [mk_rate] When there were too few games to rate players (i.e. no
954 player to rate), mk_rate caused an error. Now it no longer shows
957 2007-03-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
959 * [mk_html] Popup shows additional information.
961 2007-03-02 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
964 - Use WEBrick for server framework.
965 - Daemon mode is available.
967 2007-02-26 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
970 - Failed to show usage. This issue has been fixed.
971 - Initial start of the server failed beacause of empty players.yaml.
972 This issues has been fixed.
974 2007-02-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
977 - Show groups in the order specified in players.html.
978 - Players who gamed recently have a background color.
980 - Implemented half-life effect. Numbers of win/lose decrease by this effect.
982 2006-11-26 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
984 * [shogi-server] Sente (gote) was able to move gote's (sente's) hand.
985 That move should be illegal. This issue has been fixed.
987 2006-11-01 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
989 * [mk_rate] Skip "abnormal" games, which were finished because of
990 network failure or communication error. Recently some programs seem
991 to have a lot of tries to connect to the Shogi Server at wdoor for
992 debugging. We should ignore such games for a while to get a meaningful
995 2006-10-30 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
998 - Put players into "connected" groups in order to
999 show a correct, meaningful rating. In the group, each player has at
1000 least a game with other players.
1001 - The format of players.yaml was updated.
1002 * [shogi-server] Followed the new format of players.yaml.
1004 2006-10-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1006 * [mk_rate] Corrected making win_loss_matrix.
1008 2006-10-02 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1010 * [mk_rate] players who never win or lose are not rated in order
1011 the calculation to complete.
1013 2006-09-30 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1015 * [shogi-server] The CSA mode supports the trip in a password.
1017 2006-09-22 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1019 * [shogi-server] Refactored the login procedures.
1021 2006-09-21 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1023 * [mk_rate] It failed parse draw games. Now this bug has been fixed.
1024 * [mk_html] Add CSS to look better.
1026 2006-09-15 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1029 - Remove the trip in a password. Now the password is hashed.
1031 - Support @NORATE syntax in a name, which avoids the player is
1034 2006-09-09 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1037 - Support a new command, %%VERSION. It shows the server's revision#.
1039 2006-09-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1042 - Re-design: trip is now a suffix of the password, not name.
1043 - Simplified the output of %%RATING.
1045 - Support "@" indentificaton in a name; players with same
1046 before-@-names are mapped to one.
1048 2006-09-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1050 * [mk_rate] Fix a bug. It solves the correct rate.
1052 2006-08-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1054 * [mk_rate] Re-design.
1055 - Correct the equations.
1056 - Apply deaccelerated Newton method.
1058 2006-08-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1061 - Fix a bug. Now it can see black/white players in a csa file.
1063 - Add a space in the output of %%RATING.
1065 2006-08-14 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1067 * [mk_rate] Record numbers of win/loss games.

1086 * Add a comment line about the rated game status in the CSA file.
1087 * Remove the rating system, which will be calculated by another
1090 2006-08-01 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1092 * Add a command, %%RATING, to show a ranking sorted by rates.
1094 2006-07-31 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
