4 - %%FORK command: %%FORK <source_game> [<new_buoy_game>] [<nth-move>]
5 The new_buoy_game parameter is now optional. If it is not
6 supplied, Shogi-server generates a new buoy game name from
8 - command.rb: More elaborate error messages for the %%GAME command.
10 2013-02-23 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
13 - New command: %%FORK <source_game> <new_buoy_game> [<nth-move>]
14 Fork a new game from the posistion where the n-th (starting from
15 one) move of a source game is played. The new game should be a
16 valid buoy game name. The default value of n is the position
17 where the previous position of the last one.
18 - The objective of this command: The shogi-server may be used as
19 the back end server of computer-human match where a human player
20 plays with a real board and someone, or a proxy, inputs moves to
21 the shogi-server. If the proxy happens to enter a wrong move,
22 with this command you can restart a new buoy game from the
23 previous stable position.
24 ex. %%FORK server-denou-14400-60+p1+p2+20130223185013 buoy_denou-14400-60

29 - Backported a5c94012656902e73e00f46e7a4c7004b24d4578:
30 test/TC_logger.rb depeneded on a specific directory where it was
31 running on. This issues has been fixed.
32 - Backported 87d145bd1f1a14a33f5f6fbc78b63a1952f1ca90 and
33 2df8c798aeb7f0e77735e893fd1370c2c6f15c4d:
34 shogi_server/floodgate.rb: Generating next time around the new
35 year day by reading configuration files did not work correctly.
36 This issue has been fixed.
38 2012-12-28 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
41 - shogi_server/pairing.rb:
42 + There was a bug in the logic avoiding human-human match.
43 This issue has been fixed.
44 + Improved the logic avoiding human-human match. Human-human
45 matches will less likely happen.
47 2010-10-06 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
50 - mk_rate: the usage was not updated.
51 Thanks to Hoki-san to report this issue. (Closes: #23358)
53 2010-09-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
56 - shogi_server/board.rb, game.rb: For hadicapped games, wrong
57 initial positions were delivered to players and monitors. This
58 issue has been fixed. (Closes: #23245)
59 Thanks to HIDETCHI for reporting the issue.
61 2010-09-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
64 - shogi_server/login.rb: Enhanced the CSA Login mode.
65 Logging in the server with the CSA mode, users are now allowed to
66 specify a turn preference in an enhanced gamename string which
67 looks like <gamename>-<time>-<time>-<turn>. The first three
68 parts are a regular game definition. The last "-<turn>"
70 + Without -<turn> (i.e. same as the previous behavior), there
71 is no turn preference. A user's turn will be defined randomly.
72 + <turn> is either "B" for black or "W" for white.
74 2010-09-04 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
77 - shogi_server/{board,command,game,league,player}.rb
78 The Buoy behaivor is changed.
79 + Starting a buoy game, players are notified a starting game
80 position with the initial position and moves, instread of a
82 + Players are allowed to start buoy games with specific turns.
83 ex. %%GAME buoy_foo-1500-0 +
85 2010-08-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
88 - shogi_server/command.rb: Prevent a possible password from be
89 logged in a log file when players send invalid LOGIN-like commands.
90 Thanks to Tomoyuki Kaneko for this idea.
92 2010-08-03 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
95 - sample/{check_file.rb,check_time.rb,check_time2.rb,test_time.rb}:
96 Added new files to test an issue where mtime of log files was
97 earlier than system time.
98 - shogi_server/league/floodgate_thread.rb: SetupFloodgate#start
99 now returns an instance correctly.
100 - ../shogi_server.rb, ../shogi_server/util.rb: Refactored
101 mkdir_for to Mkdir.mkdir_for.
102 - ../shogi_server/game.rb: mkdir_p will be performed in a global
103 mutex of ShogiServer::Mkdir.
105 2010-07-25 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
108 - shogi_server/command.rb:
109 + For an unknown error command log, an empty line is no longer logged.
110 + Commands specific to 81Dojo, starting with '%%%', are just
111 ignored instead of unknown command errors.
113 + Refactoring. Added test/TC_logger.rb to test
114 ShogiServer::Logger class.
115 + Fixed race condition: creating a new directory to archive
116 logs may have caused race condition, which ended up with
117 making the server unavailable. This issue has been fixed.
119 + Improved fault tolerance of the server.
121 2010-07-23 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
124 - shogi_server/league/floodgate_thread.rb: When the server run
125 with DEBUG mode, it ended up with an undefined variable error.
126 This issue has been fixed.
128 2010-07-17 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
131 - shogi_server.rb, shogi_server/board.rb, shogi_server/move.rb
132 - Refactoring: Board can now move_to() and move_back() a move
133 instread of deep_copy().
135 2010-07-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
138 - shogi_server/player.rb: Set initial values to BasicPlayer's
140 - shogi_server/league.rb: Improved performance of
141 Persistant#get_players. It took about 20 seconds for a large
142 size of players (5,300 lines in players.yaml). Now it completes in an
145 2010-06-22 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
148 - A new command line option:
149 --floodgate-names GameStringA[,GameStringB[,...]]
150 where a game string should be a valid game name such as
153 Note: Without this option, no floodgate games are started. If
154 you want floodgate-900-0 to run, which was default enabled in
155 previous versions, you need to spefify the game name in this new
157 - Floodgate time configuration file:
158 You need to set starting times of floodgate groups in
159 configuration files under the top directory. Each floodgat
160 e group requires a correspoding configuration file named
161 "<game_name>.conf". The file will be re-read once just after a
164 For example, a floodgate-3600-30 game group requires
165 floodgate-3600-30.conf. However, for floodgate-900-0 and
166 floodgate-3600-0, which were default enabled in previous
167 versions, configuration files are optional if you are happy with
168 defualt time settings.

188 - shogi_server/command.rb: Fixed an issue that MONITOR2OFF did not
189 work. Thanks to HIDECHI and koudayu.
191 2010-05-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
194 - test/*.rb: Improved performance and stability of tests
195 - shogi_server/player.rb: Help the write_thread to terminate
197 2010-05-06 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
200 - Previously mk_rate did not count in draw games. Now a draw game
201 is considered to weight 0.5 win and 0.5 loss. Respect
202 Inaniwa-shogi which strategically aims to draw.
203 - a new command line option, --skip-draw-games. In this mode, draw
204 games are just ignored as mk_rate previously did.
206 2010-04-25 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
209 - shogi_server/player.rb:
210 Log a warning message in a case that a player closes a
213 2010-04-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
216 - shogi_server/command.rb:
217 Equality of MonitorHandler class was wrong. %%MONITOROFF and
218 %%MONITOR2OFF may cause unexpected behavior. This issue has been
219 fixed. Thanks to Kota Fujiwara for reporting.
221 2010-03-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
224 - If two sequential moves from a player are identical, the last
225 one will be ignored and a game is in play. This situation might
226 happen with human players, especially on slow network,
227 impatiently sending a move twice.
229 2010-02-27 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
232 - The server now provides more accurate time control. Previouslly,
233 a player's thinking time included a time waiting to get the giant
234 lock. This may have caused games to time up, especially, during
237 2010-01-22 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
240 - Experimental feature: support handicapped games.
241 Game names that have the following prefixes are recognized as
242 handicapped games. Turn symbols "+" and "-" mean Uwate (expert)
243 and Shitate (beginner) respectively (i.e. Uwate players first).
244 "*" is not available.
254 2010-01-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
257 - shogi_server/command.rb, test/TC_command.rb
258 Proposal implementation of a new command called MONITOR2{ON,OFF}.
259 When the MONITOR2ON command is issued by a player, the server
260 immediately sends the player the entire contents of a record
261 file of the game, i.e. history of moves and so on, at that time.
262 Then, the server will forward subsequent moves like they are
263 appended to the record file.
264 - Behavior changed: A player monitoring a game with MONITORON will
265 not receive Game#show again when a gaming player resigns (:toryo).
267 2010-01-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
269 * Converted the repository from Subversion to Git.
271 2009-12-26 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
274 - The server can now provide multiple floodgate modes such as
275 floodgate-900-0 and floodgate-3600-0.
277 2009-12-25 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
280 - shogi-server: The command line option --floodgate-history has
281 been deprectated. The server will decide history file names such
282 as 'floodgate_history_900_0.yaml' and
283 'floodgate_history_3600_0.yaml', and then put them in the top
286 2009-12-20 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
289 - shogi_server/player.rb: Added new methods: is_human? and
291 A human player is recommened to use a name ending with '_human'.
292 ex. 'hoge_human', 'hoge_human@p1'
293 - shogi_server/pairing.rb: Added a new class:
294 StartGameWithoutHumans, which tries to make pairs trying to
295 avoid a human-human match. This is now enabled instread of the
296 previous class: StartGame.
297 - shogi-server, shogi_server/league/floodgate.rb:
298 Changed the argument of Floodgate.new.
300 2009-12-04 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
303 - The HUP signal is not supported by Ruby on Windows.
305 2009-11-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
308 - Added a new command line option: --base-date. You can specify a
309 base date to calculate rating scores. Games in the `future' are
310 ignored for the calculation.
312 2009-11-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
315 - The server logs a result of each game to a file named '00LIST',
316 which will be used to generate players.yaml. If the file does
317 not exist, the server will create one automatically.
318 Instruction to use the game result list file:
319 1. Make a list of game results from exisiting CSA files with
321 % ./mk_game_results dir_of_csa_files > 00LIST
322 2. Run the server. It appends a result of each game to
323 '00LIST' when the game finishes.
324 3. From the list of game results, calculate rating scores of
326 % ./mk_rate 00LIST > players.yaml
328 2009-11-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
331 - Split a pre-process collecting game results from csa files into
332 a new command, mk_game_results. Now, Generating players.yaml
333 requires two steps as follows:
334 % ./mk_game_results dir_of_csa_files > 00LIST
335 % ./mk_rate 00LIST > players.yaml
337 % ./mk_game_results dir_of_csa_files | ./mk_rate > players.yaml
340 2009-08-06 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
343 - A experimental new feature, codenamed Buoy: it allows players to
344 play a game starting with a specified position. First, a player
345 sets a buoy game with moves to a specific position. Then, two
346 players can play a new game with the game name.
348 + %%SETBUOY <game_name> <moves> [count]
350 ex. %%SETBUOY buoy_foo-900-0 +7776FU 10
351 ex. %%SETBUOY buoy_foo-1500-0 +7776FU-3334FU
352 - game_name is a valid game name with a prefix "buoy_".
354 - moves are initial moves from the Hirate position to a
355 spcific position that you want to start with.
356 ex. +7776FU-3334FU+8786FU
357 - count is an optional attribute to tell how many times the
358 game can be played (default 1). The count is decremented
359 when the game finishes. If the count reaches zero, the buoy
360 game is removed automatically by the server.
362 + %%DELETEBUOY <game_name>
363 Delete a buoy game. The only owner who set up the game is
364 allowed to delete it.
365 ex. %%DELETEBUOY buoy_foo-900-0
366 - game_name is the buoy game name that was created.
367 + %%GETBUOYCOUNT <game_name>
368 Show a current count of the buoy game or -1 for non-existing
372 2009-07-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
375 - shogi_server/command.rb: refactored commands out of player.rb.
377 2009-06-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
380 - An emtpy floodgate_history.yaml caused a server error. This
381 issue has been fixed.
384 2009-06-17 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
387 - If a new game matched between two players is not started within
388 a certain time (default 120 seconds) (i.e. the agree_waiting or
389 start_waiting state lasts too long), the Server REJECTs the game.
392 2009-06-15 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
395 - When a Gote player AGREEd a new game and then a Sente player
396 logged out (LOGOUT), the Gote incorrectly received a LOGOUT message
397 from the server. Since Gote's state was not AGREEd or STARTed yet,
398 the Gote should be REJECTed. This issue has been fixed.
401 2009-06-14 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
404 - The Board could not recognize a certain pattern of
405 Oute-Sennichite. This issue has been fixed.
408 2009-03-22 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
410 * [utils/correct-bug14635.rb]
411 - Added a new file. This program corrects illegal lines introduced
414 2009-03-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
417 - Improved performance.
419 2009-02-15 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
422 - A duplicated comment that is the one of the previous (or older)
423 move might be erroneously recorded in a csa file. This issue has
424 been fixed. (Closes: #15080)
426 2009-02-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
428 * [utils/csa-filter.rb]
429 - Added a new file. This program filters CSA files.
431 2009-02-01 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
434 - The shogi-server records csa files of games in an illegal
435 format. This issue has been fixed. (Closes: #14635)
436 - A ##[MONITOR] command for showing a game result such as %TORYO
437 was not correct. This issue has been fixed.
439 2009-01-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
442 - It failed to proccess a game result, OuteKaihiMoreWin where a
443 checked king does not escape. This issue has been fixed.
445 2009-01-02 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
448 - shogi_server/timeout_queue.rb: the timeout parameter of the
449 constructor was not respected erroneously. This issue
451 - shogi_server/players.rb: When a player was finishing with its
452 write socket broken, there was a chance that the thread of the
453 player in the giant lock had to wait for a long time (about 20
454 seconds), which might cause threads of other players stop and
455 time out. (Closes: #14469)
457 2008-12-30 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
460 - Added a new option: --footer filename, which inserts contents of
461 the filename at the bottom of a genrated page. A text specific to
462 wdoor should be written by using this option.
464 - It does no more depend on RDoc. RDoc::usage does not work well
467 2008-12-28 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
470 - Check kifu files more carefully so that files that contain
471 incomplete records are skipped.
472 - mk_rate might have failed to alloc due to out of memory. Now it
473 consumes less memory (about 200MB instead of 2GB).
474 - File names can be put into STDIN instead of specifying directory
475 names in command line arguments.
477 - New file. It filters kifu files and is of use for a pre-filter
480 2008-12-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
483 - Improved an existance check and etc. of directories specified
484 by command line options, expecially in case of the daemon mode.
486 - A lotated log file is moved to $topdir/YYYY/MM/DD.
489 2008-11-27 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
492 - Added sample/*.sh for command line samples.
494 2008-11-24 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
497 - Added a new option --floodgate-history, which allows users to
498 specify a file name that stores the records of games. The
499 records are taken care of when games are matched.
501 2008-10-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
503 * [utils/eval_graph.rb]
504 - Display time control graphs as well.
505 Thanks to Nishimura-san for this idea.
508 2008-10-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
511 - Ruby 1.8.7 (or later) must be used. Ruby 1.8.6 is not supported.
512 - Daemon mode is available.
513 - shogi_server/piece_ky.rb is again merged with
514 shogi_server/piece.rb, then has been removed.
515 - Added a test case, TC_usi.rb.
517 2008-06-30 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
520 - Added a new option --player-log-dir, which allows users to log
521 messages that are received or sent to the wire.
523 2008-06-28 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
526 - A rating comment line is now written before the first move in a
527 record file instead of after the last move, which allows other
528 applications watching a game to recognize players in the middle
529 of the game. (Closes #12821)
530 - If a player, including a monitor, stuck at the time of sending
531 messages to the wire, which means that the giant lock was locked,
532 it might have prevented other players from processing until
533 timeout occurred. This issue has been fixed. (Closes #12555)
535 2008-06-27 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
538 - Pairing players might not have shuffled players because of
539 poor shuffling algorithm. This issue has been fixed.
542 2008-06-25 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
545 - Check invalid arguments. (Closes: #12856)
547 2008-06-23 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
550 - Added a new option: --fixed-rate and --fixed-rate-player
551 whose rate always results in that rate. (Closes: #12800)
553 2008-06-06 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
556 - The source has been splited to multiple sub files.
557 - The program now depends on rubygems and activesupport.
558 - The program can reload the source files on the flight, by
559 sending a HUP signal to the server.
560 - The server log will be rotated daily.
562 2008-05-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
565 - Last game results (win or lose) of x1 players were not
566 available on the next game. This issue has been fixed.
567 Thanks to Tomoyuki Kaneko for debugging.
568 - For draw games, "'rating" line in a .csa file was
569 wrong (meaningless). This issue has been fixed.
571 2008-05-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
574 - The repository has been converted from CVS to Subversion.
576 2008-05-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
579 - Floodgate's thread could cause an error when players.yaml was
580 cleared by another program (mk_rate). This issue has been
582 - Give default values to BasicPlayer, which fixed undefined
583 method error in Pairing.
585 2008-05-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
588 - The server could not recognize uchifuzume as an illegal move.
589 This bug has been fixed.
590 - The server crashed by an undefined method error.
591 This issue has been fixed.
593 2008-05-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
596 - .csa files will be located in a sub directory such as
597 "2008/05/05/*.csa". Thease days, we have many games in a day.
598 This change will help users browse a file list.
600 2008-05-03 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
603 - Show players who have accessed in the last 30 minutes with
606 2008-04-22 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
609 - When YSS was not rated on the wdoor mode, wrong rate24 scores
610 were displayed. This issue has been fixed. Now YSS absence
613 2008-04-21 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
616 - The half-life period is now configurable.
617 ex $ ./mk_rate --half-life 14 --half-life-ignore 7 <records>
619 2008-04-12 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
622 - Renamed variables (@id) since they caused Ruby's warning.
624 2008-04-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
627 - Improved a way to handle diferred moves (2008-03-24's change),
628 based on Tomoyuki Kaneko's patch.
630 2008-04-01 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
633 - An incorrect LOGIN crashed the server. This issue has been
636 2008-03-24 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
639 - Converting characters for comments in moves caused an error. This
640 issue has been fixed.
641 - If a player moves in the opponent's turn, it is illegal. But the
642 current CSA protocol does not clearly define a way to tell so to
643 the players. This shogi-server internally keeps such a move in a
644 buffer and replay it when the player of the move gets his/her

650 - Erroneously, Board#to_s's current player was always Black.
651 It caused wrong determination of sennichite since it did not
652 care about the current player of a state. This has been fixed.
653 Thanks Takada-san for reporting this bug.

657 * [util/players-graph.rb]
658 - Applied Kaneko-san's patch, which also shows expected-rate24
660 - Small PNG gets smaller.
662 2008-03-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
665 - Added an option --wdoor. In this mode, a rate expected at Shogi
666 Club 24 is calculated from YSS's rating (he is 2400 now).
668 2008-03-04 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
671 - If the computed ratings do not stabilize, then mk_rate aborts.
672 $ ./mk_rate dir && ./mk_rate dir > players.yaml
673 can avoid rewriting the invalid ratings to the file.
675 2008-02-23 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
678 - A comment is converted to EUC-JP and then written in a log.
679 Note that this conversion guesses the input encoding. Clients
680 are recommended to send EUC-JP compatible strings to the
683 2008-02-21 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
685 * [util/players-graph.rb]
686 - Released. Draw a chart for a player's rating score.
688 2008-02-17 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
691 - An illegal teban specified for Floodgate login could crash the
692 server. This issue has been fixed.
694 2008-02-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
697 - Thread.abort_on_exception is now false, meaning that
698 a thread's abort does not affect the others.
699 - The uchifuzume check did not generate promoting moves, which
700 could crash the server with illegal moves. This issue has
703 2008-02-14 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
706 - Added a new pairing variation, Swiss-like style. Winners at the
707 previous games (his/her point of view, not the server's) are
708 paired first, and then the others are matched. This is the
710 - Pairing classes are located in a separate source file,
711 pairing.rb. The file is 'load'ed each time to be used,
712 meaning that modifying the code will be applied to a running
714 - You can specify a single player who will be out of pairing
715 when there are odd players waiting for Floodgate.
717 2008-02-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
720 - When there are odd players wating for Floodgate, the random
721 pairing deletes the player who has ever played the most games.
723 2008-02-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
726 - For the Not-Yet-Rated group, those who have not connected
727 recently are not listed.
729 - Floodgate's thread checks the current time each 10 secs.
731 2008-02-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
733 * [mk_rate] [mk_html]
734 - Display not-yet-rated players as well.
736 - Use Yahoo! UI Library.
738 2008-02-04 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
740 * [shogi-server] [webserver]
741 - In the daemon mode, if the specified directory was a relative
742 path, the server could fail to start with a permission denied
743 error. This issue has been fixed. The path is interpreted as
744 an absolute path before switching to daemon.
745 - In the daemon mode, a wrong process id was written in
746 '--pid-file'. This issue has been fixed. Also, the pid file
747 will be removed when the server shuts down.
749 2008-02-03 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
752 - Game names that are recognized as the floodgate mode are now
753 /^floodgate-\d+-\d+$/.
754 - Floodgate could not schedule the next time when it was the next
755 day. This issue has been fixed.
757 2008-02-02 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
760 - Implemented a new feature, Floodgate mode, for covenience with
761 public rating games. Now there is a special game "wdoor-900-0".
762 Matching players for that game is scheduled each 30 minitues.
764 2007-11-03 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
767 - Support Ruby 1.8.6 patch level 111 (or higher) and GSL 1.10 (or higher).
768 It may not work with lower verions.
770 2007-09-06 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
773 - The logic to detect Oute-Sennichite was not complete. Both players
774 (checking side and escaping side) may cause Oute-Sennichite. The old
775 logic only cared for the checking player. This issue has been fixed.
777 2007-06-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
780 - Initial version. This web server is an interface between HTTP and
781 shogi-server. Shogi-server commands will be available over HTTP. As
782 of now %%LIST and %%WHO commands are supported.
784 - Bumped up GAME_LIMIT (from 10) to 15 because the calculation of
785 rates sometimes went wrong (infinite values).
787 2007-04-21 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
790 - Implemented `CHALLENGE' command, and the server will respond with
791 `CHALLENGE ACCEPTED'. Note that this command is dummy for this server
792 because it is only available for CSA's official testing server and does
793 not belong to the CSA standard protocol. Therefor, when clients receive
794 `CHALLENGE ACCEPTED' from this server, they must ignore it.
795 - Show revision in a start up message.
797 2007-04-01 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
800 - Implemented one of the keepalive protocol in CSA protocol; If clients
801 send LF, the server sends back LF.
802 - More care for socket errors.
804 2007-03-27 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
806 * [mk_rate] When there were too few games to rate players (i.e. no
807 player to rate), mk_rate caused an error. Now it no longer shows
810 2007-03-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
812 * [mk_html] Popup shows additional information.
814 2007-03-02 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
817 - Use WEBrick for server framework.
818 - Daemon mode is available.
820 2007-02-26 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
823 - Failed to show usage. This issue has been fixed.
824 - Initial start of the server failed beacause of empty players.yaml.
825 This issues has been fixed.
827 2007-02-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
830 - Show groups in the order specified in players.html.
831 - Players who gamed recently have a background color.
833 - Implemented half-life effect. Numbers of win/lose decrease by this effect.
835 2006-11-26 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
837 * [shogi-server] Sente (gote) was able to move gote's (sente's) hand.
838 That move should be illegal. This issue has been fixed.
840 2006-11-01 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
842 * [mk_rate] Skip "abnormal" games, which were finished because of
843 network failure or communication error. Recently some programs seem
844 to have a lot of tries to connect to the Shogi Server at wdoor for
845 debugging. We should ignore such games for a while to get a meaningful
848 2006-10-30 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
851 - Put players into "connected" groups in order to
852 show a correct, meaningful rating. In the group, each player has at
853 least a game with other players.
854 - The format of players.yaml was updated.
855 * [shogi-server] Followed the new format of players.yaml.
857 2006-10-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
859 * [mk_rate] Corrected making win_loss_matrix.
861 2006-10-02 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
863 * [mk_rate] players who never win or lose are not rated in order
864 the calculation to complete.
866 2006-09-30 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
868 * [shogi-server] The CSA mode supports the trip in a password.

882 - Remove the trip in a password. Now the password is hashed.
884 - Support @NORATE syntax in a name, which avoids the player is
887 2006-09-09 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
890 - Support a new command, %%VERSION. It shows the server's revision#.
892 2006-09-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
895 - Re-design: trip is now a suffix of the password, not name.
896 - Simplified the output of %%RATING.
898 - Support "@" indentificaton in a name; players with same
899 before-@-names are mapped to one.
901 2006-09-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
903 * [mk_rate] Fix a bug. It solves the correct rate.
