4 - gsl library may be provided as a gem
6 2013-11-04 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
9 - Added a new option, --ignore, which is imported from
12 - Flush after each output line.
13 * Rleased: Revision "20131104"

18 - shogi_server/{game,time_clock}.rb:
19 When StopWatchClock is used, "Time_Unit:" of starting messages
20 in CSA protocol supplies "1min".
22 2013-04-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
25 - shogi_server/{game,time_clock}.rb:
26 Adds variations of thinking time calculation: ChessClock
27 (current) and StopWatchClock (new).
28 StopWatchClock, which is usually used at official games of human
29 professional players, is a clock where thiking time less than a
30 miniute is regarded as zero.
31 To select StopWatchClock, use a special game name with "060"
32 byoyomi time. ex. "gamename_1500_060".
34 2013-03-31 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
37 - %%FORK command: %%FORK <source_game> [<new_buoy_game>] [<nth-move>]
38 The new_buoy_game parameter is now optional. If it is not
39 supplied, Shogi-server generates a new buoy game name from
41 - command.rb: More elaborate error messages for the %%GAME command.
43 2013-03-20 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
46 - New pairing algorithm: ShogiServer::Pairing::LeastDiff
47 This pairing algorithm aims to minimize the total differences of
48 matching players' rates. It also includes penalyties when a match
49 is same as the previous one or a match is between human players.
50 It is based on a discussion with Yamashita-san on
51 http://www.sgtpepper.net/kaneko/diary/20120511.html.
53 2013-02-23 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
56 - New command: %%FORK <source_game> <new_buoy_game> [<nth-move>]
57 Fork a new game from the posistion where the n-th (starting from
58 one) move of a source game is played. The new game should be a
59 valid buoy game name. The default value of n is the position
60 where the previous position of the last one.
61 - The objective of this command: The shogi-server may be used as
62 the back end server of computer-human match where a human player
63 plays with a real board and someone, or a proxy, inputs moves to
64 the shogi-server. If the proxy happens to enter a wrong move,
65 with this command you can restart a new buoy game from the
66 previous stable position.
67 ex. %%FORK server-denou-14400-60+p1+p2+20130223185013 buoy_denou-14400-60

115 2012-01-01 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
118 - shogi_server/floodgate.rb: Generating next time around the new
119 year day by reading configuration files did not work correctly.
120 This issue has been fixed.
122 2011-12-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
125 - shogi_server/board.rb, piece.rb: Refactoring to cache OU pieces,
126 which was inspired by 81SquareShogi-server's change
127 (74b24b88c843f1dd767412475b117481d1d5e8eb).
128 - Added shogi-server-profile to take profile of shogi-server.
129 * [mk_rate] [mk_game_results]

152 2010-10-06 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
155 - mk_rate: the usage was not updated.
156 Thanks to Hoki-san to report this issue. (Closes: #23358)
158 2010-09-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
161 - shogi_server/board.rb, game.rb: For hadicapped games, wrong
162 initial positions were delivered to players and monitors. This
163 issue has been fixed. (Closes: #23245)
164 Thanks to HIDETCHI for reporting the issue.
166 2010-09-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
169 - shogi_server/login.rb: Enhanced the CSA Login mode.
170 Logging in the server with the CSA mode, users are now allowed to
171 specify a turn preference in an enhanced gamename string which
172 looks like <gamename>-<time>-<time>-<turn>. The first three
173 parts are a regular game definition. The last "-<turn>"
175 + Without -<turn> (i.e. same as the previous behavior), there
176 is no turn preference. A user's turn will be defined randomly.
177 + <turn> is either "B" for black or "W" for white.
179 2010-09-04 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
182 - shogi_server/{board,command,game,league,player}.rb
183 The Buoy behavior is changed.
184 + Starting a buoy game, players are notified a starting game
185 position with the initial position and moves, instead of a
187 + Players are allowed to start buoy games with specific turns.
188 ex. %%GAME buoy_foo-1500-0 +
190 2010-08-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
193 - shogi_server/command.rb: Prevent a possible password from be
194 logged in a log file when players send invalid LOGIN-like commands.
195 Thanks to Tomoyuki Kaneko for this idea.
197 2010-08-03 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
200 - sample/{check_file.rb,check_time.rb,check_time2.rb,test_time.rb}:
201 Added new files to test an issue where mtime of log files was
202 earlier than system time.
203 - shogi_server/league/floodgate_thread.rb: SetupFloodgate#start
204 now returns an instance correctly.
205 - ../shogi_server.rb, ../shogi_server/util.rb: Refactored
206 mkdir_for to Mkdir.mkdir_for.
207 - ../shogi_server/game.rb: mkdir_p will be performed in a global
208 mutex of ShogiServer::Mkdir.
210 2010-07-25 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
213 - shogi_server/command.rb:
214 + For an unknown error command log, an empty line is no longer logged.
215 + Commands specific to 81Dojo, starting with '%%%', are just
216 ignored instead of unknown command errors.
218 + Refactoring. Added test/TC_logger.rb to test
219 ShogiServer::Logger class.
220 + Fixed race condition: creating a new directory to archive
221 logs may have caused race condition, which ended up with
222 making the server unavailable. This issue has been fixed.
224 + Improved fault tolerance of the server.
226 2010-07-23 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
229 - shogi_server/league/floodgate_thread.rb: When the server run
230 with DEBUG mode, it ended up with an undefined variable error.
231 This issue has been fixed.
233 2010-07-17 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
236 - shogi_server.rb, shogi_server/board.rb, shogi_server/move.rb
237 - Refactoring: Board can now move_to() and move_back() a move
238 instead of deep_copy().
240 2010-07-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
243 - shogi_server/player.rb: Set initial values to BasicPlayer's
245 - shogi_server/league.rb: Improved performance of
246 Persistant#get_players. It took about 20 seconds for a large
247 size of players (5,300 lines in players.yaml). Now it completes in an
250 2010-06-22 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
253 - A new command line option:
254 --floodgate-names GameStringA[,GameStringB[,...]]
255 where a game string should be a valid game name such as
258 Note: Without this option, no floodgate games are started. If
259 you want floodgate-900-0 to run, which was default enabled in
260 previous versions, you need to specify the game name in this new
262 - Floodgate time configuration file:
263 You need to set starting times of floodgate groups in
264 configuration files under the top directory. Each floodgate
265 group requires a corresponding configuration file named
266 "<game_name>.conf". The file will be re-read once just after a
269 For example, a floodgate-3600-30 game group requires
270 floodgate-3600-30.conf. However, for floodgate-900-0 and
271 floodgate-3600-0, which were default enabled in previous
272 versions, configuration files are optional if you are happy with
273 default time settings.

293 - shogi_server/command.rb: Fixed an issue that MONITOR2OFF did not
294 work. Thanks to HIDECHI and koudayu.
296 2010-05-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
299 - test/*.rb: Improved performance and stability of tests
300 - shogi_server/player.rb: Help the write_thread to terminate
302 2010-05-06 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
305 - Previously mk_rate did not count in draw games. Now a draw game
306 is considered to weight 0.5 win and 0.5 loss. Respect
307 Inaniwa-shogi which strategically aims to draw.
308 - a new command line option, --skip-draw-games. In this mode, draw
309 games are just ignored as mk_rate previously did.
311 2010-04-25 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
314 - shogi_server/player.rb:
315 Log a warning message in a case that a player closes a
318 2010-04-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
321 - shogi_server/command.rb:
322 Equality of MonitorHandler class was wrong. %%MONITOROFF and
323 %%MONITOR2OFF may cause unexpected behavior. This issue has been
324 fixed. Thanks to Kota Fujiwara for reporting.
326 2010-03-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
329 - If two sequential moves from a player are identical, the last
330 one will be ignored and a game is in play. This situation might
331 happen with human players, especially on slow network,
332 impatiently sending a move twice.
334 2010-02-27 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
337 - The server now provides more accurate time control. Previously,
338 a player's thinking time included a time waiting to get the giant
339 lock. This may have caused games to time up, especially, during
342 2010-01-22 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
345 - Experimental feature: support handicapped games.
346 Game names that have the following prefixes are recognized as
347 handicapped games. Turn symbols "+" and "-" mean Uwate (expert)
348 and Shitate (beginner) respectively (i.e. Uwate players first).
349 "*" is not available.
359 2010-01-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
362 - shogi_server/command.rb, test/TC_command.rb
363 Proposal implementation of a new command called MONITOR2{ON,OFF}.
364 When the MONITOR2ON command is issued by a player, the server
365 immediately sends the player the entire contents of a record
366 file of the game, i.e. history of moves and so on, at that time.
367 Then, the server will forward subsequent moves like they are
368 appended to the record file.
369 - Behavior changed: A player monitoring a game with MONITORON will
370 not receive Game#show again when a gaming player resigns (:toryo).
372 2010-01-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
374 * Converted the repository from Subversion to Git.
376 2009-12-26 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
379 - The server can now provide multiple floodgate modes such as
380 floodgate-900-0 and floodgate-3600-0.
382 2009-12-25 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
385 - shogi-server: The command line option --floodgate-history has
386 been deprecated. The server will decide history file names such
387 as 'floodgate_history_900_0.yaml' and
388 'floodgate_history_3600_0.yaml', and then put them in the top
391 2009-12-20 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
394 - shogi_server/player.rb: Added new methods: is_human? and
396 A human player is recommended to use a name ending with '_human'.
397 ex. 'hoge_human', 'hoge_human@p1'
398 - shogi_server/pairing.rb: Added a new class:
399 StartGameWithoutHumans, which tries to make pairs trying to
400 avoid a human-human match. This is now enabled instead of the
401 previous class: StartGame.
402 - shogi-server, shogi_server/league/floodgate.rb:
403 Changed the argument of Floodgate.new.
405 2009-12-04 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
408 - The HUP signal is not supported by Ruby on Windows.
410 2009-11-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
413 - Added a new command line option: --base-date. You can specify a
414 base date to calculate rating scores. Games in the `future' are
415 ignored for the calculation.
417 2009-11-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
420 - The server logs a result of each game to a file named '00LIST',
421 which will be used to generate players.yaml. If the file does
422 not exist, the server will create one automatically.
423 Instruction to use the game result list file:
424 1. Make a list of game results from existing CSA files with
426 % ./mk_game_results dir_of_csa_files > 00LIST
427 2. Run the server. It appends a result of each game to
428 '00LIST' when the game finishes.
429 3. From the list of game results, calculate rating scores of
431 % ./mk_rate 00LIST > players.yaml
433 2009-11-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
436 - Split a pre-process collecting game results from csa files into
437 a new command, mk_game_results. Now, Generating players.yaml
438 requires two steps as follows:
439 % ./mk_game_results dir_of_csa_files > 00LIST
440 % ./mk_rate 00LIST > players.yaml
442 % ./mk_game_results dir_of_csa_files | ./mk_rate > players.yaml
445 2009-08-06 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
448 - A experimental new feature, codenamed Buoy: it allows players to
449 play a game starting with a specified position. First, a player
450 sets a buoy game with moves to a specific position. Then, two
451 players can play a new game with the game name.
453 + %%SETBUOY <game_name> <moves> [count]
455 ex. %%SETBUOY buoy_foo-900-0 +7776FU 10
456 ex. %%SETBUOY buoy_foo-1500-0 +7776FU-3334FU
457 - game_name is a valid game name with a prefix "buoy_".
459 - moves are initial moves from the Hirate position to a
460 specific position that you want to start with.
461 ex. +7776FU-3334FU+8786FU
462 - count is an optional attribute to tell how many times the
463 game can be played (default 1). The count is decremented
464 when the game finishes. If the count reaches zero, the buoy
465 game is removed automatically by the server.
467 + %%DELETEBUOY <game_name>
468 Delete a buoy game. The only owner who set up the game is
469 allowed to delete it.
470 ex. %%DELETEBUOY buoy_foo-900-0
471 - game_name is the buoy game name that was created.
472 + %%GETBUOYCOUNT <game_name>
473 Show a current count of the buoy game or -1 for non-existing
477 2009-07-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
480 - shogi_server/command.rb: refactored commands out of player.rb.
482 2009-06-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
485 - An empty floodgate_history.yaml caused a server error. This
486 issue has been fixed.
489 2009-06-17 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
492 - If a new game matched between two players is not started within
493 a certain time (default 120 seconds) (i.e. the agree_waiting or
494 start_waiting state lasts too long), the Server REJECTs the game.
497 2009-06-15 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
500 - When a Gote player AGREEd a new game and then a Sente player
501 logged out (LOGOUT), the Gote incorrectly received a LOGOUT message
502 from the server. Since Gote's state was not AGREEd or STARTed yet,
503 the Gote should be REJECTed. This issue has been fixed.
506 2009-06-14 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
509 - The Board could not recognize a certain pattern of
510 Oute-Sennichite. This issue has been fixed.
513 2009-03-22 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
515 * [utils/correct-bug14635.rb]
516 - Added a new file. This program corrects illegal lines introduced
519 2009-03-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
522 - Improved performance.
524 2009-02-15 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
527 - A duplicated comment that is the one of the previous (or older)
528 move might be erroneously recorded in a csa file. This issue has
529 been fixed. (Closes: #15080)
531 2009-02-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
533 * [utils/csa-filter.rb]
534 - Added a new file. This program filters CSA files.
536 2009-02-01 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
539 - The shogi-server records csa files of games in an illegal
540 format. This issue has been fixed. (Closes: #14635)
541 - A ##[MONITOR] command for showing a game result such as %TORYO
542 was not correct. This issue has been fixed.
544 2009-01-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
547 - It failed to proccess a game result, OuteKaihiMoreWin where a
548 checked king does not escape. This issue has been fixed.
550 2009-01-02 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
553 - shogi_server/timeout_queue.rb: the timeout parameter of the
554 constructor was not respected erroneously. This issue
556 - shogi_server/players.rb: When a player was finishing with its
557 write socket broken, there was a chance that the thread of the
558 player in the giant lock had to wait for a long time (about 20
559 seconds), which might cause threads of other players stop and
560 time out. (Closes: #14469)
562 2008-12-30 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
565 - Added a new option: --footer filename, which inserts contents of
566 the filename at the bottom of a generated page. A text specific to
567 wdoor should be written by using this option.
569 - It does no more depend on RDoc. RDoc::usage does not work well
572 2008-12-28 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
575 - Check kifu files more carefully so that files that contain
576 incomplete records are skipped.
577 - mk_rate might have failed to alloc due to out of memory. Now it
578 consumes less memory (about 200MB instead of 2GB).
579 - File names can be put into STDIN instead of specifying directory
580 names in command line arguments.
582 - New file. It filters kifu files and is of use for a pre-filter
585 2008-12-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
588 - Improved an existance check and etc. of directories specified
589 by command line options, especially in case of the daemon mode.
591 - A rotated log file is moved to $topdir/YYYY/MM/DD.
594 2008-11-27 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
597 - Added sample/*.sh for command line samples.
599 2008-11-24 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
602 - Added a new option --floodgate-history, which allows users to
603 specify a file name that stores the records of games. The
604 records are taken care of when games are matched.
606 2008-10-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
608 * [utils/eval_graph.rb]
609 - Display time control graphs as well.
610 Thanks to Nishimura-san for this idea.
613 2008-10-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
616 - Ruby 1.8.7 (or later) must be used. Ruby 1.8.6 is not supported.
617 - Daemon mode is available.
618 - shogi_server/piece_ky.rb is again merged with
619 shogi_server/piece.rb, then has been removed.
620 - Added a test case, TC_usi.rb.
622 2008-06-30 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
625 - Added a new option --player-log-dir, which allows users to log
626 messages that are received or sent to the wire.
628 2008-06-28 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
631 - A rating comment line is now written before the first move in a
632 record file instead of after the last move, which allows other
633 applications watching a game to recognize players in the middle
634 of the game. (Closes #12821)
635 - If a player, including a monitor, stuck at the time of sending
636 messages to the wire, which means that the giant lock was locked,
637 it might have prevented other players from processing until
638 timeout occurred. This issue has been fixed. (Closes #12555)
640 2008-06-27 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
643 - Pairing players might not have shuffled players because of
644 poor shuffling algorithm. This issue has been fixed.
647 2008-06-25 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
650 - Check invalid arguments. (Closes: #12856)
652 2008-06-23 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
655 - Added a new option: --fixed-rate and --fixed-rate-player
656 whose rate always results in that rate. (Closes: #12800)
658 2008-06-06 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
661 - The source has been splited to multiple sub files.
662 - The program now depends on rubygems and activesupport.
663 - The program can reload the source files on the flight, by
664 sending a HUP signal to the server.
665 - The server log will be rotated daily.
667 2008-05-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
670 - Last game results (win or lose) of x1 players were not
671 available on the next game. This issue has been fixed.
672 Thanks to Tomoyuki Kaneko for debugging.
673 - For draw games, "'rating" line in a .csa file was
674 wrong (meaningless). This issue has been fixed.
676 2008-05-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
679 - The repository has been converted from CVS to Subversion.
681 2008-05-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
684 - Floodgate's thread could cause an error when players.yaml was
685 cleared by another program (mk_rate). This issue has been
687 - Give default values to BasicPlayer, which fixed undefined
688 method error in Pairing.
690 2008-05-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
693 - The server could not recognize uchifuzume as an illegal move.
694 This bug has been fixed.
695 - The server crashed by an undefined method error.
696 This issue has been fixed.
698 2008-05-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
701 - .csa files will be located in a sub directory such as
702 "2008/05/05/*.csa". These days, we have many games in a day.
703 This change will help users browse a file list.
705 2008-05-03 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
708 - Show players who have accessed in the last 30 minutes with
711 2008-04-22 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
714 - When YSS was not rated on the wdoor mode, wrong rate24 scores
715 were displayed. This issue has been fixed. Now YSS absence
718 2008-04-21 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
721 - The half-life period is now configurable.
722 ex $ ./mk_rate --half-life 14 --half-life-ignore 7 <records>
724 2008-04-12 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
727 - Renamed variables (@id) since they caused Ruby's warning.
729 2008-04-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
732 - Improved a way to handle diferred moves (2008-03-24's change),
733 based on Tomoyuki Kaneko's patch.
735 2008-04-01 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
738 - An incorrect LOGIN crashed the server. This issue has been
741 2008-03-24 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
744 - Converting characters for comments in moves caused an error. This
745 issue has been fixed.
746 - If a player moves in the opponent's turn, it is illegal. But the
747 current CSA protocol does not clearly define a way to tell so to
748 the players. This shogi-server internally keeps such a move in a
749 buffer and replay it when the player of the move gets his/her
752 2008-03-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
755 - Erroneously, Board#to_s's current player was always Black.
756 It caused wrong determination of sennichite since it did not
757 care about the current player of a state. This has been fixed.
758 Thanks Takada-san for reporting this bug.
760 2008-03-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
762 * [util/players-graph.rb]
763 - Applied Kaneko-san's patch, which also shows expected-rate24
765 - Small PNG gets smaller.
767 2008-03-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
770 - Added an option --wdoor. In this mode, a rate expected at Shogi
771 Club 24 is calculated from YSS's rating (he is 2400 now).
773 2008-03-04 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
776 - If the computed ratings do not stabilize, then mk_rate aborts.
777 $ ./mk_rate dir && ./mk_rate dir > players.yaml
778 can avoid rewriting the invalid ratings to the file.
780 2008-02-23 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
783 - A comment is converted to EUC-JP and then written in a log.
784 Note that this conversion guesses the input encoding. Clients
785 are recommended to send EUC-JP compatible strings to the
788 2008-02-21 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
790 * [util/players-graph.rb]
791 - Released. Draw a chart for a player's rating score.
793 2008-02-17 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
796 - An illegal teban specified for Floodgate login could crash the
797 server. This issue has been fixed.
799 2008-02-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
802 - Thread.abort_on_exception is now false, meaning that
803 a thread's abort does not affect the others.
804 - The uchifuzume check did not generate promoting moves, which
805 could crash the server with illegal moves. This issue has
808 2008-02-14 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
811 - Added a new pairing variation, Swiss-like style. Winners at the
812 previous games (his/her point of view, not the server's) are
813 paired first, and then the others are matched. This is the
815 - Pairing classes are located in a separate source file,
816 pairing.rb. The file is 'load'ed each time to be used,
817 meaning that modifying the code will be applied to a running
819 - You can specify a single player who will be out of pairing
820 when there are odd players waiting for Floodgate.
822 2008-02-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
825 - When there are odd players wating for Floodgate, the random
826 pairing deletes the player who has ever played the most games.
828 2008-02-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
831 - For the Not-Yet-Rated group, those who have not connected
832 recently are not listed.
834 - Floodgate's thread checks the current time each 10 secs.
836 2008-02-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
838 * [mk_rate] [mk_html]
839 - Display not-yet-rated players as well.
841 - Use Yahoo! UI Library.
843 2008-02-04 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
845 * [shogi-server] [webserver]
846 - In the daemon mode, if the specified directory was a relative
847 path, the server could fail to start with a permission denied
848 error. This issue has been fixed. The path is interpreted as
849 an absolute path before switching to daemon.
850 - In the daemon mode, a wrong process id was written in
851 '--pid-file'. This issue has been fixed. Also, the pid file
852 will be removed when the server shuts down.
854 2008-02-03 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
857 - Game names that are recognized as the floodgate mode are now
858 /^floodgate-\d+-\d+$/.
859 - Floodgate could not schedule the next time when it was the next
860 day. This issue has been fixed.
862 2008-02-02 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
865 - Implemented a new feature, Floodgate mode, for covenience with
866 public rating games. Now there is a special game "wdoor-900-0".
867 Matching players for that game is scheduled each 30 minitues.
869 2007-11-03 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
872 - Support Ruby 1.8.6 patch level 111 (or higher) and GSL 1.10 (or higher).
873 It may not work with lower verions.
875 2007-09-06 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
878 - The logic to detect Oute-Sennichite was not complete. Both players
879 (checking side and escaping side) may cause Oute-Sennichite. The old
880 logic only cared for the checking player. This issue has been fixed.
882 2007-06-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
885 - Initial version. This web server is an interface between HTTP and
886 shogi-server. Shogi-server commands will be available over HTTP. As
887 of now %%LIST and %%WHO commands are supported.
889 - Bumped up GAME_LIMIT (from 10) to 15 because the calculation of
890 rates sometimes went wrong (infinite values).
892 2007-04-21 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
895 - Implemented `CHALLENGE' command, and the server will respond with
896 `CHALLENGE ACCEPTED'. Note that this command is dummy for this server
897 because it is only available for CSA's official testing server and does
898 not belong to the CSA standard protocol. Therefor, when clients receive
899 `CHALLENGE ACCEPTED' from this server, they must ignore it.
900 - Show revision in a start up message.
902 2007-04-01 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
905 - Implemented one of the keepalive protocol in CSA protocol; If clients
906 send LF, the server sends back LF.
907 - More care for socket errors.
909 2007-03-27 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
911 * [mk_rate] When there were too few games to rate players (i.e. no
912 player to rate), mk_rate caused an error. Now it no longer shows
915 2007-03-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
917 * [mk_html] Popup shows additional information.
919 2007-03-02 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
922 - Use WEBrick for server framework.
923 - Daemon mode is available.
925 2007-02-26 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
928 - Failed to show usage. This issue has been fixed.
929 - Initial start of the server failed beacause of empty players.yaml.
930 This issues has been fixed.
932 2007-02-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
935 - Show groups in the order specified in players.html.
936 - Players who gamed recently have a background color.
938 - Implemented half-life effect. Numbers of win/lose decrease by this effect.
940 2006-11-26 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
942 * [shogi-server] Sente (gote) was able to move gote's (sente's) hand.
943 That move should be illegal. This issue has been fixed.
945 2006-11-01 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
947 * [mk_rate] Skip "abnormal" games, which were finished because of
948 network failure or communication error. Recently some programs seem
949 to have a lot of tries to connect to the Shogi Server at wdoor for
950 debugging. We should ignore such games for a while to get a meaningful
953 2006-10-30 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
956 - Put players into "connected" groups in order to
957 show a correct, meaningful rating. In the group, each player has at
958 least a game with other players.
959 - The format of players.yaml was updated.
960 * [shogi-server] Followed the new format of players.yaml.
962 2006-10-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
964 * [mk_rate] Corrected making win_loss_matrix.
966 2006-10-02 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
968 * [mk_rate] players who never win or lose are not rated in order
969 the calculation to complete.
971 2006-09-30 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
973 * [shogi-server] The CSA mode supports the trip in a password.
975 2006-09-22 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
977 * [shogi-server] Refactored the login procedures.
979 2006-09-21 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
981 * [mk_rate] It failed parse draw games. Now this bug has been fixed.
982 * [mk_html] Add CSS to look better.
984 2006-09-15 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
987 - Remove the trip in a password. Now the password is hashed.
989 - Support @NORATE syntax in a name, which avoids the player is
992 2006-09-09 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
995 - Support a new command, %%VERSION. It shows the server's revision#.
997 2006-09-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1000 - Re-design: trip is now a suffix of the password, not name.
1001 - Simplified the output of %%RATING.
1003 - Support "@" indentificaton in a name; players with same
1004 before-@-names are mapped to one.
1006 2006-09-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1008 * [mk_rate] Fix a bug. It solves the correct rate.
1010 2006-08-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1012 * [mk_rate] Re-design.
1013 - Correct the equations.
1014 - Apply deaccelerated Newton method.

1050 * Add a command, %%RATING, to show a ranking sorted by rates.
1052 2006-07-31 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
