4 - Previously, parameters in Floodgate time configuration file were
5 not applied to actual instances. This issue has been fixed.
7 2013-12-21 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
10 - shogi_server/pairing.rb: Impose penalty on matches between
13 2013-12-15 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
16 - Listen on only IPv4 explicitly. Under ruby 1.9.3p194, without
17 any bind addresses, ruby attempts to listen on both "0.0.0.0"
18 and "::". Specifying "::" on Linux leads to listen on both IPv4
19 and IPv6, which results in a warning message saying "Address
20 already in use - bind(2)".
22 - Released: Revision "20131215"
24 2013-12-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
27 - shogi_server/league/floodgate_thread.rb:
28 - Added a log message.
30 2013-12-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
33 - shogi-server/shogi_server/pairing.rb:
34 - Modified comment for LeastDiff match.
35 - Changed log messages and levels.
37 2013-12-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
40 - shogi_server/pairing.rb, player.rb:
41 Simplify estimated rate of unrated players (less memory).
42 - Enhanced syntax of Floodgate time configuration file.
43 Now it supports "set sacrifice <player_id>"; it sets a
44 sacrificed player for a specific Floodgate game.
45 ex. set sacrifice gps500+e293220e3f8a3e59f79f6b0efffaa931
47 2013-12-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
50 - Added a new pairing method, ShogiServer::ExcludeUnratedPlayers,
51 which filters out unrated players.
52 - Enhanced syntax of Floodgate time configuration file.
53 Now it supports "set pairing_factory <function_name>"; it sets a
54 factory function name generating a pairing method which will be
55 used in a specific Floodgate game.
56 ex. set pairing_factory floodgate_zyunisen
58 2013-11-24 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
61 - shogi_server/league/floodgate.rb: Improved robustness against
62 empty file under ruby 1.9.3p194
64 - Previously, reloading in daemon mode failed on
65 ruby 1.9.3p194. This issue has been fixed.
66 - Listen on only IPv4 explicitly. Under ruby 1.9.3p194, without
67 any bind addresses, ruby attempts to listen on both "0.0.0.0"
68 and "::". Specifying "::" on Linux leads to listen on both IPv4
69 and IPv6, which results in a warning message saying "Address
70 already in use - bind(2)".
72 - Fixed for reading Japanese comments under ruby1.9.3p194.
73 * mk_rate-from-grep, mk_rate-grep:
74 - Removed files that are no longer used.
76 2013-11-23 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
79 - gsl library may be provided as a gem
80 - Now duplicated inputs are checked and skipped.
81 * test/TC_floodgate.rb
82 - Improved randomness check so that it works on Ruby 2.0.0 as well
84 2013-11-04 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
87 - Added a new option, --ignore, which is imported from
90 - Flush after each output line.
91 * Rleased: Revision "20131104"
93 2013-09-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
96 - shogi_server/{game,time_clock}.rb:
97 When StopWatchClock is used, "Time_Unit:" of starting messages
98 in CSA protocol supplies "1min".
100 2013-04-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
103 - shogi_server/{game,time_clock}.rb:
104 Adds variations of thinking time calculation: ChessClock
105 (current) and StopWatchClock (new).
106 StopWatchClock, which is usually used at official games of human
107 professional players, is a clock where thiking time less than a
108 miniute is regarded as zero.
109 To select StopWatchClock, use a special game name with "060"
110 byoyomi time. ex. "gamename_1500_060".
112 2013-03-31 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
115 - %%FORK command: %%FORK <source_game> [<new_buoy_game>] [<nth-move>]
116 The new_buoy_game parameter is now optional. If it is not
117 supplied, Shogi-server generates a new buoy game name from
119 - command.rb: More elaborate error messages for the %%GAME command.
121 2013-03-20 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
124 - New pairing algorithm: ShogiServer::Pairing::LeastDiff
125 This pairing algorithm aims to minimize the total differences of
126 matching players' rates. It also includes penalyties when a match
127 is same as the previous one or a match is between human players.
128 It is based on a discussion with Yamashita-san on
129 http://www.sgtpepper.net/kaneko/diary/20120511.html.
131 2013-02-23 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
134 - New command: %%FORK <source_game> <new_buoy_game> [<nth-move>]
135 Fork a new game from the posistion where the n-th (starting from
136 one) move of a source game is played. The new game should be a
137 valid buoy game name. The default value of n is the position
138 where the previous position of the last one.
139 - The objective of this command: The shogi-server may be used as
140 the back end server of computer-human match where a human player
141 plays with a real board and someone, or a proxy, inputs moves to
142 the shogi-server. If the proxy happens to enter a wrong move,
143 with this command you can restart a new buoy game from the
144 previous stable position.
145 ex. %%FORK server-denou-14400-60+p1+p2+20130223185013 buoy_denou-14400-60

162 - shogi_server/pairing.rb:
163 + There was a bug in the logic avoiding human-human match.
164 This issue has been fixed.
165 + Improved the logic avoiding human-human match. Human-human
166 matches will less likely happen.
168 2012-01-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
171 - Added shogi_server/compatible.rb, which implements compatible
172 methods and allows Ruby 1.8.7 to run the server.

198 This issue has been fixed.
200 2011-12-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
203 - shogi_server/board.rb, piece.rb: Refactoring to cache OU pieces,
204 which was inspired by 81SquareShogi-server's change
205 (74b24b88c843f1dd767412475b117481d1d5e8eb).
206 - Added shogi-server-profile to take profile of shogi-server.
207 * [mk_rate] [mk_game_results]

233 - mk_rate: the usage was not updated.
234 Thanks to Hoki-san to report this issue. (Closes: #23358)
236 2010-09-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
239 - shogi_server/board.rb, game.rb: For hadicapped games, wrong
240 initial positions were delivered to players and monitors. This
241 issue has been fixed. (Closes: #23245)
242 Thanks to HIDETCHI for reporting the issue.
244 2010-09-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
247 - shogi_server/login.rb: Enhanced the CSA Login mode.
248 Logging in the server with the CSA mode, users are now allowed to
249 specify a turn preference in an enhanced gamename string which
250 looks like <gamename>-<time>-<time>-<turn>. The first three
251 parts are a regular game definition. The last "-<turn>"
253 + Without -<turn> (i.e. same as the previous behavior), there
254 is no turn preference. A user's turn will be defined randomly.
255 + <turn> is either "B" for black or "W" for white.
257 2010-09-04 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
260 - shogi_server/{board,command,game,league,player}.rb
261 The Buoy behavior is changed.
262 + Starting a buoy game, players are notified a starting game
263 position with the initial position and moves, instead of a
265 + Players are allowed to start buoy games with specific turns.
266 ex. %%GAME buoy_foo-1500-0 +
268 2010-08-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
271 - shogi_server/command.rb: Prevent a possible password from be
272 logged in a log file when players send invalid LOGIN-like commands.
273 Thanks to Tomoyuki Kaneko for this idea.
275 2010-08-03 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
278 - sample/{check_file.rb,check_time.rb,check_time2.rb,test_time.rb}:
279 Added new files to test an issue where mtime of log files was
280 earlier than system time.
281 - shogi_server/league/floodgate_thread.rb: SetupFloodgate#start
282 now returns an instance correctly.
283 - ../shogi_server.rb, ../shogi_server/util.rb: Refactored
284 mkdir_for to Mkdir.mkdir_for.
285 - ../shogi_server/game.rb: mkdir_p will be performed in a global
286 mutex of ShogiServer::Mkdir.
288 2010-07-25 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
291 - shogi_server/command.rb:
292 + For an unknown error command log, an empty line is no longer logged.
293 + Commands specific to 81Dojo, starting with '%%%', are just
294 ignored instead of unknown command errors.
296 + Refactoring. Added test/TC_logger.rb to test
297 ShogiServer::Logger class.
298 + Fixed race condition: creating a new directory to archive
299 logs may have caused race condition, which ended up with
300 making the server unavailable. This issue has been fixed.
302 + Improved fault tolerance of the server.
304 2010-07-23 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
307 - shogi_server/league/floodgate_thread.rb: When the server run
308 with DEBUG mode, it ended up with an undefined variable error.
309 This issue has been fixed.
311 2010-07-17 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
314 - shogi_server.rb, shogi_server/board.rb, shogi_server/move.rb
315 - Refactoring: Board can now move_to() and move_back() a move
316 instead of deep_copy().
318 2010-07-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
321 - shogi_server/player.rb: Set initial values to BasicPlayer's
323 - shogi_server/league.rb: Improved performance of
324 Persistant#get_players. It took about 20 seconds for a large
325 size of players (5,300 lines in players.yaml). Now it completes in an
328 2010-06-22 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
331 - A new command line option:
332 --floodgate-names GameStringA[,GameStringB[,...]]
333 where a game string should be a valid game name such as
336 Note: Without this option, no floodgate games are started. If
337 you want floodgate-900-0 to run, which was default enabled in
338 previous versions, you need to specify the game name in this new
340 - Floodgate time configuration file:
341 You need to set starting times of floodgate groups in
342 configuration files under the top directory. Each floodgate
343 group requires a corresponding configuration file named
344 "<game_name>.conf". The file will be re-read once just after a
347 For example, a floodgate-3600-30 game group requires
348 floodgate-3600-30.conf. However, for floodgate-900-0 and
349 floodgate-3600-0, which were default enabled in previous
350 versions, configuration files are optional if you are happy with
351 default time settings.

371 - shogi_server/command.rb: Fixed an issue that MONITOR2OFF did not
372 work. Thanks to HIDECHI and koudayu.
374 2010-05-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
377 - test/*.rb: Improved performance and stability of tests
378 - shogi_server/player.rb: Help the write_thread to terminate
380 2010-05-06 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
383 - Previously mk_rate did not count in draw games. Now a draw game
384 is considered to weight 0.5 win and 0.5 loss. Respect
385 Inaniwa-shogi which strategically aims to draw.
386 - a new command line option, --skip-draw-games. In this mode, draw
387 games are just ignored as mk_rate previously did.
389 2010-04-25 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
392 - shogi_server/player.rb:
393 Log a warning message in a case that a player closes a
396 2010-04-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
399 - shogi_server/command.rb:
400 Equality of MonitorHandler class was wrong. %%MONITOROFF and
401 %%MONITOR2OFF may cause unexpected behavior. This issue has been
402 fixed. Thanks to Kota Fujiwara for reporting.
404 2010-03-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
407 - If two sequential moves from a player are identical, the last
408 one will be ignored and a game is in play. This situation might
409 happen with human players, especially on slow network,
410 impatiently sending a move twice.
412 2010-02-27 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
415 - The server now provides more accurate time control. Previously,
416 a player's thinking time included a time waiting to get the giant
417 lock. This may have caused games to time up, especially, during
420 2010-01-22 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
423 - Experimental feature: support handicapped games.
424 Game names that have the following prefixes are recognized as
425 handicapped games. Turn symbols "+" and "-" mean Uwate (expert)
426 and Shitate (beginner) respectively (i.e. Uwate players first).
427 "*" is not available.
437 2010-01-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
440 - shogi_server/command.rb, test/TC_command.rb
441 Proposal implementation of a new command called MONITOR2{ON,OFF}.
442 When the MONITOR2ON command is issued by a player, the server
443 immediately sends the player the entire contents of a record
444 file of the game, i.e. history of moves and so on, at that time.
445 Then, the server will forward subsequent moves like they are
446 appended to the record file.
447 - Behavior changed: A player monitoring a game with MONITORON will
448 not receive Game#show again when a gaming player resigns (:toryo).
450 2010-01-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
452 * Converted the repository from Subversion to Git.
454 2009-12-26 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
457 - The server can now provide multiple floodgate modes such as
458 floodgate-900-0 and floodgate-3600-0.
460 2009-12-25 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
463 - shogi-server: The command line option --floodgate-history has
464 been deprecated. The server will decide history file names such
465 as 'floodgate_history_900_0.yaml' and
466 'floodgate_history_3600_0.yaml', and then put them in the top
469 2009-12-20 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
472 - shogi_server/player.rb: Added new methods: is_human? and
474 A human player is recommended to use a name ending with '_human'.
475 ex. 'hoge_human', 'hoge_human@p1'
476 - shogi_server/pairing.rb: Added a new class:
477 StartGameWithoutHumans, which tries to make pairs trying to
478 avoid a human-human match. This is now enabled instead of the
479 previous class: StartGame.
480 - shogi-server, shogi_server/league/floodgate.rb:
481 Changed the argument of Floodgate.new.
483 2009-12-04 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
486 - The HUP signal is not supported by Ruby on Windows.
488 2009-11-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
491 - Added a new command line option: --base-date. You can specify a
492 base date to calculate rating scores. Games in the `future' are
493 ignored for the calculation.
495 2009-11-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
498 - The server logs a result of each game to a file named '00LIST',
499 which will be used to generate players.yaml. If the file does
500 not exist, the server will create one automatically.
501 Instruction to use the game result list file:
502 1. Make a list of game results from existing CSA files with
504 % ./mk_game_results dir_of_csa_files > 00LIST
505 2. Run the server. It appends a result of each game to
506 '00LIST' when the game finishes.
507 3. From the list of game results, calculate rating scores of
509 % ./mk_rate 00LIST > players.yaml
511 2009-11-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
514 - Split a pre-process collecting game results from csa files into
515 a new command, mk_game_results. Now, Generating players.yaml
516 requires two steps as follows:
517 % ./mk_game_results dir_of_csa_files > 00LIST
518 % ./mk_rate 00LIST > players.yaml
520 % ./mk_game_results dir_of_csa_files | ./mk_rate > players.yaml
523 2009-08-06 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
526 - A experimental new feature, codenamed Buoy: it allows players to
527 play a game starting with a specified position. First, a player
528 sets a buoy game with moves to a specific position. Then, two
529 players can play a new game with the game name.
531 + %%SETBUOY <game_name> <moves> [count]
533 ex. %%SETBUOY buoy_foo-900-0 +7776FU 10
534 ex. %%SETBUOY buoy_foo-1500-0 +7776FU-3334FU
535 - game_name is a valid game name with a prefix "buoy_".
537 - moves are initial moves from the Hirate position to a
538 specific position that you want to start with.
539 ex. +7776FU-3334FU+8786FU
540 - count is an optional attribute to tell how many times the
541 game can be played (default 1). The count is decremented
542 when the game finishes. If the count reaches zero, the buoy
543 game is removed automatically by the server.
545 + %%DELETEBUOY <game_name>
546 Delete a buoy game. The only owner who set up the game is
547 allowed to delete it.
548 ex. %%DELETEBUOY buoy_foo-900-0
549 - game_name is the buoy game name that was created.
550 + %%GETBUOYCOUNT <game_name>
551 Show a current count of the buoy game or -1 for non-existing
555 2009-07-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
558 - shogi_server/command.rb: refactored commands out of player.rb.
560 2009-06-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
563 - An empty floodgate_history.yaml caused a server error. This
564 issue has been fixed.
567 2009-06-17 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
570 - If a new game matched between two players is not started within
571 a certain time (default 120 seconds) (i.e. the agree_waiting or
572 start_waiting state lasts too long), the Server REJECTs the game.
575 2009-06-15 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
578 - When a Gote player AGREEd a new game and then a Sente player
579 logged out (LOGOUT), the Gote incorrectly received a LOGOUT message
580 from the server. Since Gote's state was not AGREEd or STARTed yet,
581 the Gote should be REJECTed. This issue has been fixed.
584 2009-06-14 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
587 - The Board could not recognize a certain pattern of
588 Oute-Sennichite. This issue has been fixed.
591 2009-03-22 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
593 * [utils/correct-bug14635.rb]
594 - Added a new file. This program corrects illegal lines introduced
597 2009-03-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
600 - Improved performance.
602 2009-02-15 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
605 - A duplicated comment that is the one of the previous (or older)
606 move might be erroneously recorded in a csa file. This issue has
607 been fixed. (Closes: #15080)
609 2009-02-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
611 * [utils/csa-filter.rb]
612 - Added a new file. This program filters CSA files.
614 2009-02-01 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
617 - The shogi-server records csa files of games in an illegal
618 format. This issue has been fixed. (Closes: #14635)
619 - A ##[MONITOR] command for showing a game result such as %TORYO
620 was not correct. This issue has been fixed.
622 2009-01-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
625 - It failed to proccess a game result, OuteKaihiMoreWin where a
626 checked king does not escape. This issue has been fixed.
628 2009-01-02 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
631 - shogi_server/timeout_queue.rb: the timeout parameter of the
632 constructor was not respected erroneously. This issue
634 - shogi_server/players.rb: When a player was finishing with its
635 write socket broken, there was a chance that the thread of the
636 player in the giant lock had to wait for a long time (about 20
637 seconds), which might cause threads of other players stop and
638 time out. (Closes: #14469)
640 2008-12-30 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
643 - Added a new option: --footer filename, which inserts contents of
644 the filename at the bottom of a generated page. A text specific to
645 wdoor should be written by using this option.
647 - It does no more depend on RDoc. RDoc::usage does not work well
650 2008-12-28 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
653 - Check kifu files more carefully so that files that contain
654 incomplete records are skipped.
655 - mk_rate might have failed to alloc due to out of memory. Now it
656 consumes less memory (about 200MB instead of 2GB).
657 - File names can be put into STDIN instead of specifying directory
658 names in command line arguments.
660 - New file. It filters kifu files and is of use for a pre-filter
663 2008-12-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
666 - Improved an existance check and etc. of directories specified
667 by command line options, especially in case of the daemon mode.
669 - A rotated log file is moved to $topdir/YYYY/MM/DD.
672 2008-11-27 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
675 - Added sample/*.sh for command line samples.
677 2008-11-24 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
680 - Added a new option --floodgate-history, which allows users to
681 specify a file name that stores the records of games. The
682 records are taken care of when games are matched.
684 2008-10-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
686 * [utils/eval_graph.rb]
687 - Display time control graphs as well.
688 Thanks to Nishimura-san for this idea.
691 2008-10-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
694 - Ruby 1.8.7 (or later) must be used. Ruby 1.8.6 is not supported.
695 - Daemon mode is available.
696 - shogi_server/piece_ky.rb is again merged with
697 shogi_server/piece.rb, then has been removed.
698 - Added a test case, TC_usi.rb.
700 2008-06-30 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
703 - Added a new option --player-log-dir, which allows users to log
704 messages that are received or sent to the wire.
706 2008-06-28 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
709 - A rating comment line is now written before the first move in a
710 record file instead of after the last move, which allows other
711 applications watching a game to recognize players in the middle
712 of the game. (Closes #12821)
713 - If a player, including a monitor, stuck at the time of sending
714 messages to the wire, which means that the giant lock was locked,
715 it might have prevented other players from processing until
716 timeout occurred. This issue has been fixed. (Closes #12555)
718 2008-06-27 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
721 - Pairing players might not have shuffled players because of
722 poor shuffling algorithm. This issue has been fixed.
725 2008-06-25 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
728 - Check invalid arguments. (Closes: #12856)
730 2008-06-23 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
733 - Added a new option: --fixed-rate and --fixed-rate-player
734 whose rate always results in that rate. (Closes: #12800)
736 2008-06-06 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
739 - The source has been splited to multiple sub files.
740 - The program now depends on rubygems and activesupport.
741 - The program can reload the source files on the flight, by
742 sending a HUP signal to the server.
743 - The server log will be rotated daily.
745 2008-05-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
748 - Last game results (win or lose) of x1 players were not
749 available on the next game. This issue has been fixed.
750 Thanks to Tomoyuki Kaneko for debugging.
751 - For draw games, "'rating" line in a .csa file was
752 wrong (meaningless). This issue has been fixed.
754 2008-05-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
757 - The repository has been converted from CVS to Subversion.
759 2008-05-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
762 - Floodgate's thread could cause an error when players.yaml was
763 cleared by another program (mk_rate). This issue has been
765 - Give default values to BasicPlayer, which fixed undefined
766 method error in Pairing.
768 2008-05-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
771 - The server could not recognize uchifuzume as an illegal move.
772 This bug has been fixed.
773 - The server crashed by an undefined method error.
774 This issue has been fixed.
776 2008-05-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
779 - .csa files will be located in a sub directory such as
780 "2008/05/05/*.csa". These days, we have many games in a day.
781 This change will help users browse a file list.
783 2008-05-03 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
786 - Show players who have accessed in the last 30 minutes with
789 2008-04-22 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
792 - When YSS was not rated on the wdoor mode, wrong rate24 scores
793 were displayed. This issue has been fixed. Now YSS absence
796 2008-04-21 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
799 - The half-life period is now configurable.
800 ex $ ./mk_rate --half-life 14 --half-life-ignore 7 <records>
802 2008-04-12 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
805 - Renamed variables (@id) since they caused Ruby's warning.
807 2008-04-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
810 - Improved a way to handle diferred moves (2008-03-24's change),
811 based on Tomoyuki Kaneko's patch.
813 2008-04-01 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
816 - An incorrect LOGIN crashed the server. This issue has been
819 2008-03-24 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
822 - Converting characters for comments in moves caused an error. This
823 issue has been fixed.
824 - If a player moves in the opponent's turn, it is illegal. But the
825 current CSA protocol does not clearly define a way to tell so to
826 the players. This shogi-server internally keeps such a move in a
827 buffer and replay it when the player of the move gets his/her
830 2008-03-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
833 - Erroneously, Board#to_s's current player was always Black.
834 It caused wrong determination of sennichite since it did not
835 care about the current player of a state. This has been fixed.
836 Thanks Takada-san for reporting this bug.
838 2008-03-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
840 * [util/players-graph.rb]
841 - Applied Kaneko-san's patch, which also shows expected-rate24
843 - Small PNG gets smaller.
845 2008-03-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
848 - Added an option --wdoor. In this mode, a rate expected at Shogi
849 Club 24 is calculated from YSS's rating (he is 2400 now).
851 2008-03-04 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
854 - If the computed ratings do not stabilize, then mk_rate aborts.
855 $ ./mk_rate dir && ./mk_rate dir > players.yaml
856 can avoid rewriting the invalid ratings to the file.
858 2008-02-23 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
861 - A comment is converted to EUC-JP and then written in a log.
862 Note that this conversion guesses the input encoding. Clients
863 are recommended to send EUC-JP compatible strings to the
866 2008-02-21 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
868 * [util/players-graph.rb]
869 - Released. Draw a chart for a player's rating score.
871 2008-02-17 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
874 - An illegal teban specified for Floodgate login could crash the
875 server. This issue has been fixed.
877 2008-02-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
880 - Thread.abort_on_exception is now false, meaning that
881 a thread's abort does not affect the others.
882 - The uchifuzume check did not generate promoting moves, which
883 could crash the server with illegal moves. This issue has
886 2008-02-14 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
889 - Added a new pairing variation, Swiss-like style. Winners at the
890 previous games (his/her point of view, not the server's) are
891 paired first, and then the others are matched. This is the
893 - Pairing classes are located in a separate source file,
894 pairing.rb. The file is 'load'ed each time to be used,
895 meaning that modifying the code will be applied to a running
897 - You can specify a single player who will be out of pairing
898 when there are odd players waiting for Floodgate.
900 2008-02-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
903 - When there are odd players wating for Floodgate, the random
904 pairing deletes the player who has ever played the most games.
906 2008-02-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
909 - For the Not-Yet-Rated group, those who have not connected
910 recently are not listed.
912 - Floodgate's thread checks the current time each 10 secs.
914 2008-02-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
916 * [mk_rate] [mk_html]
917 - Display not-yet-rated players as well.
919 - Use Yahoo! UI Library.
921 2008-02-04 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
923 * [shogi-server] [webserver]
924 - In the daemon mode, if the specified directory was a relative
925 path, the server could fail to start with a permission denied
926 error. This issue has been fixed. The path is interpreted as
927 an absolute path before switching to daemon.
928 - In the daemon mode, a wrong process id was written in
929 '--pid-file'. This issue has been fixed. Also, the pid file
930 will be removed when the server shuts down.
932 2008-02-03 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
935 - Game names that are recognized as the floodgate mode are now
936 /^floodgate-\d+-\d+$/.
937 - Floodgate could not schedule the next time when it was the next
938 day. This issue has been fixed.
940 2008-02-02 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
943 - Implemented a new feature, Floodgate mode, for covenience with
944 public rating games. Now there is a special game "wdoor-900-0".
945 Matching players for that game is scheduled each 30 minitues.
947 2007-11-03 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
950 - Support Ruby 1.8.6 patch level 111 (or higher) and GSL 1.10 (or higher).
951 It may not work with lower verions.
953 2007-09-06 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
956 - The logic to detect Oute-Sennichite was not complete. Both players
957 (checking side and escaping side) may cause Oute-Sennichite. The old
958 logic only cared for the checking player. This issue has been fixed.
960 2007-06-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
963 - Initial version. This web server is an interface between HTTP and
964 shogi-server. Shogi-server commands will be available over HTTP. As
965 of now %%LIST and %%WHO commands are supported.
967 - Bumped up GAME_LIMIT (from 10) to 15 because the calculation of
968 rates sometimes went wrong (infinite values).
970 2007-04-21 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
973 - Implemented `CHALLENGE' command, and the server will respond with
974 `CHALLENGE ACCEPTED'. Note that this command is dummy for this server
975 because it is only available for CSA's official testing server and does
976 not belong to the CSA standard protocol. Therefor, when clients receive
977 `CHALLENGE ACCEPTED' from this server, they must ignore it.
978 - Show revision in a start up message.
980 2007-04-01 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
983 - Implemented one of the keepalive protocol in CSA protocol; If clients
984 send LF, the server sends back LF.
985 - More care for socket errors.
987 2007-03-27 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
989 * [mk_rate] When there were too few games to rate players (i.e. no
990 player to rate), mk_rate caused an error. Now it no longer shows
993 2007-03-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
995 * [mk_html] Popup shows additional information.
997 2007-03-02 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1000 - Use WEBrick for server framework.
1001 - Daemon mode is available.
1003 2007-02-26 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1006 - Failed to show usage. This issue has been fixed.
1007 - Initial start of the server failed beacause of empty players.yaml.
1008 This issues has been fixed.
1010 2007-02-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1013 - Show groups in the order specified in players.html.
1014 - Players who gamed recently have a background color.
1016 - Implemented half-life effect. Numbers of win/lose decrease by this effect.
1018 2006-11-26 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1020 * [shogi-server] Sente (gote) was able to move gote's (sente's) hand.
1021 That move should be illegal. This issue has been fixed.
1023 2006-11-01 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1025 * [mk_rate] Skip "abnormal" games, which were finished because of
1026 network failure or communication error. Recently some programs seem
1027 to have a lot of tries to connect to the Shogi Server at wdoor for
1028 debugging. We should ignore such games for a while to get a meaningful
1031 2006-10-30 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1033 * [mk_rate][mk_html]
1034 - Put players into "connected" groups in order to
1035 show a correct, meaningful rating. In the group, each player has at
1036 least a game with other players.
1037 - The format of players.yaml was updated.
1038 * [shogi-server] Followed the new format of players.yaml.
1040 2006-10-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1042 * [mk_rate] Corrected making win_loss_matrix.
1044 2006-10-02 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1046 * [mk_rate] players who never win or lose are not rated in order
1047 the calculation to complete.
1049 2006-09-30 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1051 * [shogi-server] The CSA mode supports the trip in a password.
1053 2006-09-22 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1055 * [shogi-server] Refactored the login procedures.
1057 2006-09-21 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1059 * [mk_rate] It failed parse draw games. Now this bug has been fixed.
1060 * [mk_html] Add CSS to look better.
1062 2006-09-15 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1065 - Remove the trip in a password. Now the password is hashed.
1067 - Support @NORATE syntax in a name, which avoids the player is
1070 2006-09-09 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1073 - Support a new command, %%VERSION. It shows the server's revision#.
1075 2006-09-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1078 - Re-design: trip is now a suffix of the password, not name.
1079 - Simplified the output of %%RATING.
1081 - Support "@" indentificaton in a name; players with same
1082 before-@-names are mapped to one.
1084 2006-09-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1086 * [mk_rate] Fix a bug. It solves the correct rate.
1088 2006-08-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1090 * [mk_rate] Re-design.
1091 - Correct the equations.
1092 - Apply deaccelerated Newton method.
1094 2006-08-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1097 - Fix a bug. Now it can see black/white players in a csa file.
1099 - Add a space in the output of %%RATING.
1101 2006-08-14 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1103 * [mk_rate] Record numbers of win/loss games.
1104 * Add mk_html, which generates html from players.yaml
1105 * Fix test/test_board.rb. Now it works.
1106 * Add test/TC_ALL.rb to run all test cases.
1107 * [shogi-server] Fix a bug. Now it can show %%RATING even if it has no
1110 2006-08-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>

1121 * Fix the max length of the login name with a trip.
1122 * Add a comment line about the rated game status in the CSA file.
1123 * Remove the rating system, which will be calculated by another
1126 2006-08-01 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1128 * Add a command, %%RATING, to show a ranking sorted by rates.
1130 2006-07-31 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
