4 - Added a new option, --abnormal-threshold n:
5 Games that end with the 'abnormal' status are counted in
6 win/lost games for the rating calculation if a game plays more
7 than n plies. Otherwise (or if n is zero), abnormal games are
8 counted out of rating games.
10 2013-12-29 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
13 - Previously, parameters in Floodgate time configuration file were
14 not applied to actual instances. This issue has been fixed.
16 2013-12-21 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
19 - shogi_server/pairing.rb: Impose penalty on matches between
22 2013-12-15 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
25 - Listen on only IPv4 explicitly. Under ruby 1.9.3p194, without
26 any bind addresses, ruby attempts to listen on both "0.0.0.0"
27 and "::". Specifying "::" on Linux leads to listen on both IPv4
28 and IPv6, which results in a warning message saying "Address
29 already in use - bind(2)".
31 - Released: Revision "20131215"
33 2013-12-14 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
36 - Added a new program, bin/usiToCsa.rb, which is a bridge for a
37 USI engine to connect to the Shogi-server.
38 - bin/usiToCsa is a sample wrapper script.
40 2013-12-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
43 - shogi_server/league/floodgate_thread.rb:
44 - Added a log message.
46 2013-12-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
49 - shogi-server/shogi_server/pairing.rb:
50 - Modified comment for LeastDiff match.
51 - Changed log messages and levels.
53 2013-12-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
56 - shogi_server/pairing.rb, player.rb:
57 Simplify estimated rate of unrated players (less memory).
58 - Enhanced syntax of Floodgate time configuration file.
59 Now it supports "set sacrifice <player_id>"; it sets a
60 sacrificed player for a specific Floodgate game.
61 ex. set sacrifice gps500+e293220e3f8a3e59f79f6b0efffaa931
63 2013-12-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
66 - Added a new pairing method, ShogiServer::ExcludeUnratedPlayers,
67 which filters out unrated players.
68 - Enhanced syntax of Floodgate time configuration file.
69 Now it supports "set pairing_factory <function_name>"; it sets a
70 factory function name generating a pairing method which will be
71 used in a specific Floodgate game.
72 ex. set pairing_factory floodgate_zyunisen
73 - Implemented conversion of move representation between CSA format
76 2013-11-24 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
79 - shogi_server/league/floodgate.rb: Improved robustness against
80 empty file under ruby 1.9.3p194
82 - Previously, reloading in daemon mode failed on
83 ruby 1.9.3p194. This issue has been fixed.
84 - Listen on only IPv4 explicitly. Under ruby 1.9.3p194, without
85 any bind addresses, ruby attempts to listen on both "0.0.0.0"
86 and "::". Specifying "::" on Linux leads to listen on both IPv4
87 and IPv6, which results in a warning message saying "Address
88 already in use - bind(2)".
90 - Fixed for reading Japanese comments under ruby1.9.3p194.
91 * mk_rate-from-grep, mk_rate-grep:
92 - Removed files that are no longer used.
94 2013-11-23 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
97 - gsl library may be provided as a gem
98 - Now duplicated inputs are checked and skipped.
99 * test/TC_floodgate.rb
100 - Improved randomness check so that it works on Ruby 2.0.0 as well
102 2013-11-04 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
105 - Added a new option, --ignore, which is imported from
108 - Flush after each output line.
109 * Rleased: Revision "20131104"
111 2013-09-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
114 - shogi_server/{game,time_clock}.rb:
115 When StopWatchClock is used, "Time_Unit:" of starting messages
116 in CSA protocol supplies "1min".
118 2013-04-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
121 - shogi_server/{game,time_clock}.rb:
122 Adds variations of thinking time calculation: ChessClock
123 (current) and StopWatchClock (new).
124 StopWatchClock, which is usually used at official games of human
125 professional players, is a clock where thiking time less than a
126 miniute is regarded as zero.
127 To select StopWatchClock, use a special game name with "060"
128 byoyomi time. ex. "gamename_1500_060".
130 2013-03-31 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
133 - %%FORK command: %%FORK <source_game> [<new_buoy_game>] [<nth-move>]
134 The new_buoy_game parameter is now optional. If it is not
135 supplied, Shogi-server generates a new buoy game name from
137 - command.rb: More elaborate error messages for the %%GAME command.
139 2013-03-20 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
142 - New pairing algorithm: ShogiServer::Pairing::LeastDiff
143 This pairing algorithm aims to minimize the total differences of
144 matching players' rates. It also includes penalyties when a match
145 is same as the previous one or a match is between human players.
146 It is based on a discussion with Yamashita-san on
147 http://www.sgtpepper.net/kaneko/diary/20120511.html.
149 2013-02-23 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
152 - New command: %%FORK <source_game> <new_buoy_game> [<nth-move>]
153 Fork a new game from the posistion where the n-th (starting from
154 one) move of a source game is played. The new game should be a
155 valid buoy game name. The default value of n is the position
156 where the previous position of the last one.
157 - The objective of this command: The shogi-server may be used as
158 the back end server of computer-human match where a human player
159 plays with a real board and someone, or a proxy, inputs moves to
160 the shogi-server. If the proxy happens to enter a wrong move,
161 with this command you can restart a new buoy game from the
162 previous stable position.
163 ex. %%FORK server-denou-14400-60+p1+p2+20130223185013 buoy_denou-14400-60

216 This issue has been fixed.
218 2011-12-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
221 - shogi_server/board.rb, piece.rb: Refactoring to cache OU pieces,
222 which was inspired by 81SquareShogi-server's change
223 (74b24b88c843f1dd767412475b117481d1d5e8eb).
224 - Added shogi-server-profile to take profile of shogi-server.
225 * [mk_rate] [mk_game_results]
226 - Supports Ruby 1.9.3.
228 2011-12-12 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>

251 - mk_rate: the usage was not updated.
252 Thanks to Hoki-san to report this issue. (Closes: #23358)
254 2010-09-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
257 - shogi_server/board.rb, game.rb: For hadicapped games, wrong
258 initial positions were delivered to players and monitors. This
259 issue has been fixed. (Closes: #23245)
260 Thanks to HIDETCHI for reporting the issue.
262 2010-09-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
265 - shogi_server/login.rb: Enhanced the CSA Login mode.
266 Logging in the server with the CSA mode, users are now allowed to
267 specify a turn preference in an enhanced gamename string which
268 looks like <gamename>-<time>-<time>-<turn>. The first three
269 parts are a regular game definition. The last "-<turn>"
271 + Without -<turn> (i.e. same as the previous behavior), there
272 is no turn preference. A user's turn will be defined randomly.
273 + <turn> is either "B" for black or "W" for white.
275 2010-09-04 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
278 - shogi_server/{board,command,game,league,player}.rb
279 The Buoy behavior is changed.
280 + Starting a buoy game, players are notified a starting game
281 position with the initial position and moves, instead of a
283 + Players are allowed to start buoy games with specific turns.
284 ex. %%GAME buoy_foo-1500-0 +
286 2010-08-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
289 - shogi_server/command.rb: Prevent a possible password from be
290 logged in a log file when players send invalid LOGIN-like commands.
291 Thanks to Tomoyuki Kaneko for this idea.
293 2010-08-03 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
296 - sample/{check_file.rb,check_time.rb,check_time2.rb,test_time.rb}:
297 Added new files to test an issue where mtime of log files was
298 earlier than system time.
299 - shogi_server/league/floodgate_thread.rb: SetupFloodgate#start
300 now returns an instance correctly.
301 - ../shogi_server.rb, ../shogi_server/util.rb: Refactored
302 mkdir_for to Mkdir.mkdir_for.
303 - ../shogi_server/game.rb: mkdir_p will be performed in a global
304 mutex of ShogiServer::Mkdir.
306 2010-07-25 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
309 - shogi_server/command.rb:
310 + For an unknown error command log, an empty line is no longer logged.
311 + Commands specific to 81Dojo, starting with '%%%', are just
312 ignored instead of unknown command errors.
314 + Refactoring. Added test/TC_logger.rb to test
315 ShogiServer::Logger class.
316 + Fixed race condition: creating a new directory to archive
317 logs may have caused race condition, which ended up with
318 making the server unavailable. This issue has been fixed.
320 + Improved fault tolerance of the server.
322 2010-07-23 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
325 - shogi_server/league/floodgate_thread.rb: When the server run
326 with DEBUG mode, it ended up with an undefined variable error.
327 This issue has been fixed.
329 2010-07-17 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
332 - shogi_server.rb, shogi_server/board.rb, shogi_server/move.rb
333 - Refactoring: Board can now move_to() and move_back() a move
334 instead of deep_copy().
336 2010-07-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
339 - shogi_server/player.rb: Set initial values to BasicPlayer's
341 - shogi_server/league.rb: Improved performance of
342 Persistant#get_players. It took about 20 seconds for a large
343 size of players (5,300 lines in players.yaml). Now it completes in an
346 2010-06-22 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
349 - A new command line option:
350 --floodgate-names GameStringA[,GameStringB[,...]]
351 where a game string should be a valid game name such as
354 Note: Without this option, no floodgate games are started. If
355 you want floodgate-900-0 to run, which was default enabled in
356 previous versions, you need to specify the game name in this new
358 - Floodgate time configuration file:
359 You need to set starting times of floodgate groups in
360 configuration files under the top directory. Each floodgate
361 group requires a corresponding configuration file named
362 "<game_name>.conf". The file will be re-read once just after a
365 For example, a floodgate-3600-30 game group requires
366 floodgate-3600-30.conf. However, for floodgate-900-0 and
367 floodgate-3600-0, which were default enabled in previous
368 versions, configuration files are optional if you are happy with
369 default time settings.

389 - shogi_server/command.rb: Fixed an issue that MONITOR2OFF did not
390 work. Thanks to HIDECHI and koudayu.
392 2010-05-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
395 - test/*.rb: Improved performance and stability of tests

401 - Previously mk_rate did not count in draw games. Now a draw game
402 is considered to weight 0.5 win and 0.5 loss. Respect
403 Inaniwa-shogi which strategically aims to draw.
404 - a new command line option, --skip-draw-games. In this mode, draw
405 games are just ignored as mk_rate previously did.
407 2010-04-25 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
410 - shogi_server/player.rb:
411 Log a warning message in a case that a player closes a
414 2010-04-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
417 - shogi_server/command.rb:
418 Equality of MonitorHandler class was wrong. %%MONITOROFF and
419 %%MONITOR2OFF may cause unexpected behavior. This issue has been
420 fixed. Thanks to Kota Fujiwara for reporting.
422 2010-03-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
425 - If two sequential moves from a player are identical, the last
426 one will be ignored and a game is in play. This situation might
427 happen with human players, especially on slow network,
428 impatiently sending a move twice.
430 2010-02-27 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
433 - The server now provides more accurate time control. Previously,
434 a player's thinking time included a time waiting to get the giant
435 lock. This may have caused games to time up, especially, during
438 2010-01-22 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
441 - Experimental feature: support handicapped games.
442 Game names that have the following prefixes are recognized as
443 handicapped games. Turn symbols "+" and "-" mean Uwate (expert)
444 and Shitate (beginner) respectively (i.e. Uwate players first).
445 "*" is not available.
455 2010-01-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
458 - shogi_server/command.rb, test/TC_command.rb
459 Proposal implementation of a new command called MONITOR2{ON,OFF}.
460 When the MONITOR2ON command is issued by a player, the server
461 immediately sends the player the entire contents of a record
462 file of the game, i.e. history of moves and so on, at that time.
463 Then, the server will forward subsequent moves like they are
464 appended to the record file.
465 - Behavior changed: A player monitoring a game with MONITORON will
466 not receive Game#show again when a gaming player resigns (:toryo).
468 2010-01-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
470 * Converted the repository from Subversion to Git.
472 2009-12-26 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
475 - The server can now provide multiple floodgate modes such as
476 floodgate-900-0 and floodgate-3600-0.
478 2009-12-25 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
481 - shogi-server: The command line option --floodgate-history has
482 been deprecated. The server will decide history file names such
483 as 'floodgate_history_900_0.yaml' and
484 'floodgate_history_3600_0.yaml', and then put them in the top
487 2009-12-20 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
490 - shogi_server/player.rb: Added new methods: is_human? and
492 A human player is recommended to use a name ending with '_human'.
493 ex. 'hoge_human', 'hoge_human@p1'
494 - shogi_server/pairing.rb: Added a new class:
495 StartGameWithoutHumans, which tries to make pairs trying to
496 avoid a human-human match. This is now enabled instead of the
497 previous class: StartGame.
498 - shogi-server, shogi_server/league/floodgate.rb:
499 Changed the argument of Floodgate.new.
501 2009-12-04 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
504 - The HUP signal is not supported by Ruby on Windows.
506 2009-11-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
509 - Added a new command line option: --base-date. You can specify a
510 base date to calculate rating scores. Games in the `future' are
511 ignored for the calculation.
513 2009-11-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
516 - The server logs a result of each game to a file named '00LIST',
517 which will be used to generate players.yaml. If the file does
518 not exist, the server will create one automatically.
519 Instruction to use the game result list file:
520 1. Make a list of game results from existing CSA files with
522 % ./mk_game_results dir_of_csa_files > 00LIST
523 2. Run the server. It appends a result of each game to
524 '00LIST' when the game finishes.
525 3. From the list of game results, calculate rating scores of
527 % ./mk_rate 00LIST > players.yaml
529 2009-11-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
532 - Split a pre-process collecting game results from csa files into
533 a new command, mk_game_results. Now, Generating players.yaml
534 requires two steps as follows:
535 % ./mk_game_results dir_of_csa_files > 00LIST
536 % ./mk_rate 00LIST > players.yaml
538 % ./mk_game_results dir_of_csa_files | ./mk_rate > players.yaml
541 2009-08-06 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
544 - A experimental new feature, codenamed Buoy: it allows players to
545 play a game starting with a specified position. First, a player
546 sets a buoy game with moves to a specific position. Then, two
547 players can play a new game with the game name.
549 + %%SETBUOY <game_name> <moves> [count]
551 ex. %%SETBUOY buoy_foo-900-0 +7776FU 10
552 ex. %%SETBUOY buoy_foo-1500-0 +7776FU-3334FU
553 - game_name is a valid game name with a prefix "buoy_".
555 - moves are initial moves from the Hirate position to a
556 specific position that you want to start with.
557 ex. +7776FU-3334FU+8786FU
558 - count is an optional attribute to tell how many times the
559 game can be played (default 1). The count is decremented
560 when the game finishes. If the count reaches zero, the buoy
561 game is removed automatically by the server.
563 + %%DELETEBUOY <game_name>
564 Delete a buoy game. The only owner who set up the game is
565 allowed to delete it.
566 ex. %%DELETEBUOY buoy_foo-900-0
567 - game_name is the buoy game name that was created.
568 + %%GETBUOYCOUNT <game_name>
569 Show a current count of the buoy game or -1 for non-existing
573 2009-07-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
576 - shogi_server/command.rb: refactored commands out of player.rb.
578 2009-06-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
581 - An empty floodgate_history.yaml caused a server error. This
582 issue has been fixed.
585 2009-06-17 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
588 - If a new game matched between two players is not started within
589 a certain time (default 120 seconds) (i.e. the agree_waiting or
590 start_waiting state lasts too long), the Server REJECTs the game.
593 2009-06-15 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
596 - When a Gote player AGREEd a new game and then a Sente player
597 logged out (LOGOUT), the Gote incorrectly received a LOGOUT message
598 from the server. Since Gote's state was not AGREEd or STARTed yet,
599 the Gote should be REJECTed. This issue has been fixed.
602 2009-06-14 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
605 - The Board could not recognize a certain pattern of
606 Oute-Sennichite. This issue has been fixed.

612 - Added a new file. This program corrects illegal lines introduced
615 2009-03-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
618 - Improved performance.
620 2009-02-15 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
623 - A duplicated comment that is the one of the previous (or older)
624 move might be erroneously recorded in a csa file. This issue has
625 been fixed. (Closes: #15080)
627 2009-02-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
629 * [utils/csa-filter.rb]
630 - Added a new file. This program filters CSA files.
632 2009-02-01 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
635 - The shogi-server records csa files of games in an illegal
636 format. This issue has been fixed. (Closes: #14635)
637 - A ##[MONITOR] command for showing a game result such as %TORYO
638 was not correct. This issue has been fixed.
640 2009-01-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
643 - It failed to proccess a game result, OuteKaihiMoreWin where a
644 checked king does not escape. This issue has been fixed.
646 2009-01-02 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
649 - shogi_server/timeout_queue.rb: the timeout parameter of the
650 constructor was not respected erroneously. This issue
652 - shogi_server/players.rb: When a player was finishing with its
653 write socket broken, there was a chance that the thread of the
654 player in the giant lock had to wait for a long time (about 20
655 seconds), which might cause threads of other players stop and
656 time out. (Closes: #14469)
658 2008-12-30 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
661 - Added a new option: --footer filename, which inserts contents of
662 the filename at the bottom of a generated page. A text specific to
663 wdoor should be written by using this option.
665 - It does no more depend on RDoc. RDoc::usage does not work well
668 2008-12-28 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
671 - Check kifu files more carefully so that files that contain
672 incomplete records are skipped.
673 - mk_rate might have failed to alloc due to out of memory. Now it
674 consumes less memory (about 200MB instead of 2GB).
675 - File names can be put into STDIN instead of specifying directory
676 names in command line arguments.
678 - New file. It filters kifu files and is of use for a pre-filter
681 2008-12-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
684 - Improved an existance check and etc. of directories specified
685 by command line options, especially in case of the daemon mode.
687 - A rotated log file is moved to $topdir/YYYY/MM/DD.
690 2008-11-27 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
693 - Added sample/*.sh for command line samples.
695 2008-11-24 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
698 - Added a new option --floodgate-history, which allows users to
699 specify a file name that stores the records of games. The
700 records are taken care of when games are matched.
702 2008-10-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
704 * [utils/eval_graph.rb]
705 - Display time control graphs as well.
706 Thanks to Nishimura-san for this idea.
709 2008-10-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
712 - Ruby 1.8.7 (or later) must be used. Ruby 1.8.6 is not supported.
713 - Daemon mode is available.
714 - shogi_server/piece_ky.rb is again merged with
715 shogi_server/piece.rb, then has been removed.
716 - Added a test case, TC_usi.rb.
718 2008-06-30 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
721 - Added a new option --player-log-dir, which allows users to log
722 messages that are received or sent to the wire.
724 2008-06-28 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
727 - A rating comment line is now written before the first move in a
728 record file instead of after the last move, which allows other
729 applications watching a game to recognize players in the middle
730 of the game. (Closes #12821)
731 - If a player, including a monitor, stuck at the time of sending
732 messages to the wire, which means that the giant lock was locked,
733 it might have prevented other players from processing until
734 timeout occurred. This issue has been fixed. (Closes #12555)
736 2008-06-27 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
739 - Pairing players might not have shuffled players because of
740 poor shuffling algorithm. This issue has been fixed.
743 2008-06-25 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
746 - Check invalid arguments. (Closes: #12856)
748 2008-06-23 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
751 - Added a new option: --fixed-rate and --fixed-rate-player
752 whose rate always results in that rate. (Closes: #12800)
754 2008-06-06 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
757 - The source has been splited to multiple sub files.
758 - The program now depends on rubygems and activesupport.
759 - The program can reload the source files on the flight, by
760 sending a HUP signal to the server.
761 - The server log will be rotated daily.
763 2008-05-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
766 - Last game results (win or lose) of x1 players were not
767 available on the next game. This issue has been fixed.
768 Thanks to Tomoyuki Kaneko for debugging.
769 - For draw games, "'rating" line in a .csa file was
770 wrong (meaningless). This issue has been fixed.
772 2008-05-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
775 - The repository has been converted from CVS to Subversion.
777 2008-05-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
780 - Floodgate's thread could cause an error when players.yaml was
781 cleared by another program (mk_rate). This issue has been
783 - Give default values to BasicPlayer, which fixed undefined
784 method error in Pairing.
786 2008-05-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
789 - The server could not recognize uchifuzume as an illegal move.
790 This bug has been fixed.
791 - The server crashed by an undefined method error.
792 This issue has been fixed.
794 2008-05-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
797 - .csa files will be located in a sub directory such as
798 "2008/05/05/*.csa". These days, we have many games in a day.
799 This change will help users browse a file list.
801 2008-05-03 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
804 - Show players who have accessed in the last 30 minutes with
807 2008-04-22 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
810 - When YSS was not rated on the wdoor mode, wrong rate24 scores
811 were displayed. This issue has been fixed. Now YSS absence
814 2008-04-21 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
817 - The half-life period is now configurable.
818 ex $ ./mk_rate --half-life 14 --half-life-ignore 7 <records>
820 2008-04-12 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
823 - Renamed variables (@id) since they caused Ruby's warning.
825 2008-04-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
828 - Improved a way to handle diferred moves (2008-03-24's change),
829 based on Tomoyuki Kaneko's patch.
831 2008-04-01 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
834 - An incorrect LOGIN crashed the server. This issue has been
837 2008-03-24 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
840 - Converting characters for comments in moves caused an error. This
841 issue has been fixed.
842 - If a player moves in the opponent's turn, it is illegal. But the
843 current CSA protocol does not clearly define a way to tell so to
844 the players. This shogi-server internally keeps such a move in a
845 buffer and replay it when the player of the move gets his/her
848 2008-03-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
851 - Erroneously, Board#to_s's current player was always Black.
852 It caused wrong determination of sennichite since it did not
853 care about the current player of a state. This has been fixed.
854 Thanks Takada-san for reporting this bug.
856 2008-03-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
858 * [util/players-graph.rb]
859 - Applied Kaneko-san's patch, which also shows expected-rate24
861 - Small PNG gets smaller.
863 2008-03-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
866 - Added an option --wdoor. In this mode, a rate expected at Shogi
867 Club 24 is calculated from YSS's rating (he is 2400 now).
869 2008-03-04 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
872 - If the computed ratings do not stabilize, then mk_rate aborts.
873 $ ./mk_rate dir && ./mk_rate dir > players.yaml
874 can avoid rewriting the invalid ratings to the file.
876 2008-02-23 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
879 - A comment is converted to EUC-JP and then written in a log.
880 Note that this conversion guesses the input encoding. Clients
881 are recommended to send EUC-JP compatible strings to the
884 2008-02-21 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
886 * [util/players-graph.rb]
887 - Released. Draw a chart for a player's rating score.
889 2008-02-17 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
892 - An illegal teban specified for Floodgate login could crash the
893 server. This issue has been fixed.
895 2008-02-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
898 - Thread.abort_on_exception is now false, meaning that
899 a thread's abort does not affect the others.
900 - The uchifuzume check did not generate promoting moves, which
901 could crash the server with illegal moves. This issue has
904 2008-02-14 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
907 - Added a new pairing variation, Swiss-like style. Winners at the
908 previous games (his/her point of view, not the server's) are
909 paired first, and then the others are matched. This is the
911 - Pairing classes are located in a separate source file,
912 pairing.rb. The file is 'load'ed each time to be used,
913 meaning that modifying the code will be applied to a running
915 - You can specify a single player who will be out of pairing
916 when there are odd players waiting for Floodgate.
918 2008-02-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
921 - When there are odd players wating for Floodgate, the random
922 pairing deletes the player who has ever played the most games.
924 2008-02-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
927 - For the Not-Yet-Rated group, those who have not connected
928 recently are not listed.
930 - Floodgate's thread checks the current time each 10 secs.
932 2008-02-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
934 * [mk_rate] [mk_html]
935 - Display not-yet-rated players as well.
937 - Use Yahoo! UI Library.
939 2008-02-04 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
941 * [shogi-server] [webserver]
942 - In the daemon mode, if the specified directory was a relative
943 path, the server could fail to start with a permission denied
944 error. This issue has been fixed. The path is interpreted as
945 an absolute path before switching to daemon.
946 - In the daemon mode, a wrong process id was written in
947 '--pid-file'. This issue has been fixed. Also, the pid file
948 will be removed when the server shuts down.
950 2008-02-03 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
953 - Game names that are recognized as the floodgate mode are now
954 /^floodgate-\d+-\d+$/.
955 - Floodgate could not schedule the next time when it was the next
956 day. This issue has been fixed.
958 2008-02-02 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
961 - Implemented a new feature, Floodgate mode, for covenience with
962 public rating games. Now there is a special game "wdoor-900-0".
963 Matching players for that game is scheduled each 30 minitues.
965 2007-11-03 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
968 - Support Ruby 1.8.6 patch level 111 (or higher) and GSL 1.10 (or higher).
969 It may not work with lower verions.
971 2007-09-06 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
974 - The logic to detect Oute-Sennichite was not complete. Both players
975 (checking side and escaping side) may cause Oute-Sennichite. The old
976 logic only cared for the checking player. This issue has been fixed.
978 2007-06-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
981 - Initial version. This web server is an interface between HTTP and
982 shogi-server. Shogi-server commands will be available over HTTP. As
983 of now %%LIST and %%WHO commands are supported.
985 - Bumped up GAME_LIMIT (from 10) to 15 because the calculation of
986 rates sometimes went wrong (infinite values).
988 2007-04-21 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
991 - Implemented `CHALLENGE' command, and the server will respond with
992 `CHALLENGE ACCEPTED'. Note that this command is dummy for this server
993 because it is only available for CSA's official testing server and does
994 not belong to the CSA standard protocol. Therefor, when clients receive
995 `CHALLENGE ACCEPTED' from this server, they must ignore it.
996 - Show revision in a start up message.
998 2007-04-01 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1001 - Implemented one of the keepalive protocol in CSA protocol; If clients
1002 send LF, the server sends back LF.
1003 - More care for socket errors.
1005 2007-03-27 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1007 * [mk_rate] When there were too few games to rate players (i.e. no
1008 player to rate), mk_rate caused an error. Now it no longer shows
1011 2007-03-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1013 * [mk_html] Popup shows additional information.
1015 2007-03-02 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1018 - Use WEBrick for server framework.
1019 - Daemon mode is available.
1021 2007-02-26 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1024 - Failed to show usage. This issue has been fixed.
1025 - Initial start of the server failed beacause of empty players.yaml.
1026 This issues has been fixed.
1028 2007-02-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1031 - Show groups in the order specified in players.html.
1032 - Players who gamed recently have a background color.
1034 - Implemented half-life effect. Numbers of win/lose decrease by this effect.
1036 2006-11-26 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1038 * [shogi-server] Sente (gote) was able to move gote's (sente's) hand.
1039 That move should be illegal. This issue has been fixed.
1041 2006-11-01 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1043 * [mk_rate] Skip "abnormal" games, which were finished because of
1044 network failure or communication error. Recently some programs seem
1045 to have a lot of tries to connect to the Shogi Server at wdoor for
1046 debugging. We should ignore such games for a while to get a meaningful
1049 2006-10-30 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1051 * [mk_rate][mk_html]
1052 - Put players into "connected" groups in order to
1053 show a correct, meaningful rating. In the group, each player has at
1054 least a game with other players.
1055 - The format of players.yaml was updated.
1056 * [shogi-server] Followed the new format of players.yaml.
1058 2006-10-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1060 * [mk_rate] Corrected making win_loss_matrix.
1062 2006-10-02 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1064 * [mk_rate] players who never win or lose are not rated in order
1065 the calculation to complete.
1067 2006-09-30 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1069 * [shogi-server] The CSA mode supports the trip in a password.
1071 2006-09-22 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1073 * [shogi-server] Refactored the login procedures.
1075 2006-09-21 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1077 * [mk_rate] It failed parse draw games. Now this bug has been fixed.
1078 * [mk_html] Add CSS to look better.
1080 2006-09-15 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1083 - Remove the trip in a password. Now the password is hashed.
1085 - Support @NORATE syntax in a name, which avoids the player is
1088 2006-09-09 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1091 - Support a new command, %%VERSION. It shows the server's revision#.
1093 2006-09-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1096 - Re-design: trip is now a suffix of the password, not name.
1097 - Simplified the output of %%RATING.
1099 - Support "@" indentificaton in a name; players with same
1100 before-@-names are mapped to one.
1102 2006-09-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1104 * [mk_rate] Fix a bug. It solves the correct rate.
1106 2006-08-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1108 * [mk_rate] Re-design.
1109 - Correct the equations.
1110 - Apply deaccelerated Newton method.
1112 2006-08-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>

1139 * Fix the max length of the login name with a trip.
1140 * Add a comment line about the rated game status in the CSA file.
1141 * Remove the rating system, which will be calculated by another
1144 2006-08-01 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1146 * Add a command, %%RATING, to show a ranking sorted by rates.
1148 2006-07-31 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
