4 - Added a new option, --ignore, which is imported from
7 - Flush after each output line.
8 * Rleased: Revision "20131104"

13 - shogi_server/{game,time_clock}.rb:
14 When StopWatchClock is used, "Time_Unit:" of starting messages
15 in CSA protocol supplies "1min".
17 2013-04-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
20 - shogi_server/{game,time_clock}.rb:
21 Adds variations of thinking time calculation: ChessClock
22 (current) and StopWatchClock (new).
23 StopWatchClock, which is usually used at official games of human
24 professional players, is a clock where thiking time less than a
25 miniute is regarded as zero.
26 To select StopWatchClock, use a special game name with "060"
27 byoyomi time. ex. "gamename_1500_060".

32 - %%FORK command: %%FORK <source_game> [<new_buoy_game>] [<nth-move>]
33 The new_buoy_game parameter is now optional. If it is not
34 supplied, Shogi-server generates a new buoy game name from
36 - command.rb: More elaborate error messages for the %%GAME command.
38 2013-03-20 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
41 - New pairing algorithm: ShogiServer::Pairing::LeastDiff
42 This pairing algorithm aims to minimize the total differences of
43 matching players' rates. It also includes penalyties when a match
44 is same as the previous one or a match is between human players.
45 It is based on a discussion with Yamashita-san on
46 http://www.sgtpepper.net/kaneko/diary/20120511.html.
48 2013-02-23 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
51 - New command: %%FORK <source_game> <new_buoy_game> [<nth-move>]
52 Fork a new game from the posistion where the n-th (starting from
53 one) move of a source game is played. The new game should be a
54 valid buoy game name. The default value of n is the position
55 where the previous position of the last one.
56 - The objective of this command: The shogi-server may be used as
57 the back end server of computer-human match where a human player
58 plays with a real board and someone, or a proxy, inputs moves to
59 the shogi-server. If the proxy happens to enter a wrong move,
60 with this command you can restart a new buoy game from the
61 previous stable position.
62 ex. %%FORK server-denou-14400-60+p1+p2+20130223185013 buoy_denou-14400-60

115 This issue has been fixed.
117 2011-12-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
120 - shogi_server/board.rb, piece.rb: Refactoring to cache OU pieces,
121 which was inspired by 81SquareShogi-server's change
122 (74b24b88c843f1dd767412475b117481d1d5e8eb).
123 - Added shogi-server-profile to take profile of shogi-server.

150 - mk_rate: the usage was not updated.
151 Thanks to Hoki-san to report this issue. (Closes: #23358)
153 2010-09-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
156 - shogi_server/board.rb, game.rb: For hadicapped games, wrong
157 initial positions were delivered to players and monitors. This
158 issue has been fixed. (Closes: #23245)
159 Thanks to HIDETCHI for reporting the issue.
161 2010-09-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
164 - shogi_server/login.rb: Enhanced the CSA Login mode.
165 Logging in the server with the CSA mode, users are now allowed to
166 specify a turn preference in an enhanced gamename string which
167 looks like <gamename>-<time>-<time>-<turn>. The first three
168 parts are a regular game definition. The last "-<turn>"
170 + Without -<turn> (i.e. same as the previous behavior), there
171 is no turn preference. A user's turn will be defined randomly.
172 + <turn> is either "B" for black or "W" for white.
174 2010-09-04 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
177 - shogi_server/{board,command,game,league,player}.rb
178 The Buoy behavior is changed.
179 + Starting a buoy game, players are notified a starting game
180 position with the initial position and moves, instead of a
182 + Players are allowed to start buoy games with specific turns.
183 ex. %%GAME buoy_foo-1500-0 +
185 2010-08-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
188 - shogi_server/command.rb: Prevent a possible password from be
189 logged in a log file when players send invalid LOGIN-like commands.
190 Thanks to Tomoyuki Kaneko for this idea.
192 2010-08-03 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
195 - sample/{check_file.rb,check_time.rb,check_time2.rb,test_time.rb}:
196 Added new files to test an issue where mtime of log files was
197 earlier than system time.
198 - shogi_server/league/floodgate_thread.rb: SetupFloodgate#start
199 now returns an instance correctly.
200 - ../shogi_server.rb, ../shogi_server/util.rb: Refactored
201 mkdir_for to Mkdir.mkdir_for.
202 - ../shogi_server/game.rb: mkdir_p will be performed in a global
203 mutex of ShogiServer::Mkdir.
205 2010-07-25 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
208 - shogi_server/command.rb:
209 + For an unknown error command log, an empty line is no longer logged.
210 + Commands specific to 81Dojo, starting with '%%%', are just
211 ignored instead of unknown command errors.
213 + Refactoring. Added test/TC_logger.rb to test
214 ShogiServer::Logger class.
215 + Fixed race condition: creating a new directory to archive
216 logs may have caused race condition, which ended up with
217 making the server unavailable. This issue has been fixed.
219 + Improved fault tolerance of the server.
221 2010-07-23 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
224 - shogi_server/league/floodgate_thread.rb: When the server run
225 with DEBUG mode, it ended up with an undefined variable error.
226 This issue has been fixed.
228 2010-07-17 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
231 - shogi_server.rb, shogi_server/board.rb, shogi_server/move.rb
232 - Refactoring: Board can now move_to() and move_back() a move
233 instead of deep_copy().
235 2010-07-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
238 - shogi_server/player.rb: Set initial values to BasicPlayer's
240 - shogi_server/league.rb: Improved performance of
241 Persistant#get_players. It took about 20 seconds for a large
242 size of players (5,300 lines in players.yaml). Now it completes in an
245 2010-06-22 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
248 - A new command line option:
249 --floodgate-names GameStringA[,GameStringB[,...]]
250 where a game string should be a valid game name such as
253 Note: Without this option, no floodgate games are started. If
254 you want floodgate-900-0 to run, which was default enabled in
255 previous versions, you need to specify the game name in this new
257 - Floodgate time configuration file:
258 You need to set starting times of floodgate groups in
259 configuration files under the top directory. Each floodgate
260 group requires a corresponding configuration file named
261 "<game_name>.conf". The file will be re-read once just after a
264 For example, a floodgate-3600-30 game group requires
265 floodgate-3600-30.conf. However, for floodgate-900-0 and
266 floodgate-3600-0, which were default enabled in previous
267 versions, configuration files are optional if you are happy with
268 default time settings.

288 - shogi_server/command.rb: Fixed an issue that MONITOR2OFF did not
289 work. Thanks to HIDECHI and koudayu.
291 2010-05-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
294 - test/*.rb: Improved performance and stability of tests
295 - shogi_server/player.rb: Help the write_thread to terminate
297 2010-05-06 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
300 - Previously mk_rate did not count in draw games. Now a draw game
301 is considered to weight 0.5 win and 0.5 loss. Respect
302 Inaniwa-shogi which strategically aims to draw.
303 - a new command line option, --skip-draw-games. In this mode, draw
304 games are just ignored as mk_rate previously did.
306 2010-04-25 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
309 - shogi_server/player.rb:
310 Log a warning message in a case that a player closes a
313 2010-04-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
316 - shogi_server/command.rb:
317 Equality of MonitorHandler class was wrong. %%MONITOROFF and
318 %%MONITOR2OFF may cause unexpected behavior. This issue has been
319 fixed. Thanks to Kota Fujiwara for reporting.
321 2010-03-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
324 - If two sequential moves from a player are identical, the last
325 one will be ignored and a game is in play. This situation might
326 happen with human players, especially on slow network,
327 impatiently sending a move twice.
329 2010-02-27 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
332 - The server now provides more accurate time control. Previously,
333 a player's thinking time included a time waiting to get the giant
334 lock. This may have caused games to time up, especially, during
337 2010-01-22 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
340 - Experimental feature: support handicapped games.
341 Game names that have the following prefixes are recognized as
342 handicapped games. Turn symbols "+" and "-" mean Uwate (expert)
343 and Shitate (beginner) respectively (i.e. Uwate players first).
344 "*" is not available.
354 2010-01-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
357 - shogi_server/command.rb, test/TC_command.rb
358 Proposal implementation of a new command called MONITOR2{ON,OFF}.
359 When the MONITOR2ON command is issued by a player, the server
360 immediately sends the player the entire contents of a record
361 file of the game, i.e. history of moves and so on, at that time.
362 Then, the server will forward subsequent moves like they are
363 appended to the record file.
364 - Behavior changed: A player monitoring a game with MONITORON will
365 not receive Game#show again when a gaming player resigns (:toryo).
367 2010-01-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
369 * Converted the repository from Subversion to Git.
371 2009-12-26 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
374 - The server can now provide multiple floodgate modes such as
375 floodgate-900-0 and floodgate-3600-0.
377 2009-12-25 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
380 - shogi-server: The command line option --floodgate-history has
381 been deprecated. The server will decide history file names such
382 as 'floodgate_history_900_0.yaml' and
383 'floodgate_history_3600_0.yaml', and then put them in the top
386 2009-12-20 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
389 - shogi_server/player.rb: Added new methods: is_human? and
391 A human player is recommended to use a name ending with '_human'.
392 ex. 'hoge_human', 'hoge_human@p1'
393 - shogi_server/pairing.rb: Added a new class:
394 StartGameWithoutHumans, which tries to make pairs trying to
395 avoid a human-human match. This is now enabled instead of the
396 previous class: StartGame.
397 - shogi-server, shogi_server/league/floodgate.rb:
398 Changed the argument of Floodgate.new.
400 2009-12-04 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
403 - The HUP signal is not supported by Ruby on Windows.
405 2009-11-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
408 - Added a new command line option: --base-date. You can specify a
409 base date to calculate rating scores. Games in the `future' are
410 ignored for the calculation.
412 2009-11-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
415 - The server logs a result of each game to a file named '00LIST',
416 which will be used to generate players.yaml. If the file does
417 not exist, the server will create one automatically.
418 Instruction to use the game result list file:
419 1. Make a list of game results from existing CSA files with
421 % ./mk_game_results dir_of_csa_files > 00LIST
422 2. Run the server. It appends a result of each game to
423 '00LIST' when the game finishes.
424 3. From the list of game results, calculate rating scores of
426 % ./mk_rate 00LIST > players.yaml
428 2009-11-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
431 - Split a pre-process collecting game results from csa files into
432 a new command, mk_game_results. Now, Generating players.yaml
433 requires two steps as follows:
434 % ./mk_game_results dir_of_csa_files > 00LIST
435 % ./mk_rate 00LIST > players.yaml
437 % ./mk_game_results dir_of_csa_files | ./mk_rate > players.yaml
440 2009-08-06 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
443 - A experimental new feature, codenamed Buoy: it allows players to
444 play a game starting with a specified position. First, a player
445 sets a buoy game with moves to a specific position. Then, two
446 players can play a new game with the game name.
448 + %%SETBUOY <game_name> <moves> [count]
450 ex. %%SETBUOY buoy_foo-900-0 +7776FU 10
451 ex. %%SETBUOY buoy_foo-1500-0 +7776FU-3334FU
452 - game_name is a valid game name with a prefix "buoy_".
454 - moves are initial moves from the Hirate position to a
455 specific position that you want to start with.
456 ex. +7776FU-3334FU+8786FU
457 - count is an optional attribute to tell how many times the
458 game can be played (default 1). The count is decremented
459 when the game finishes. If the count reaches zero, the buoy
460 game is removed automatically by the server.
462 + %%DELETEBUOY <game_name>
463 Delete a buoy game. The only owner who set up the game is
464 allowed to delete it.
465 ex. %%DELETEBUOY buoy_foo-900-0
466 - game_name is the buoy game name that was created.
467 + %%GETBUOYCOUNT <game_name>
468 Show a current count of the buoy game or -1 for non-existing
472 2009-07-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
475 - shogi_server/command.rb: refactored commands out of player.rb.
477 2009-06-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
480 - An empty floodgate_history.yaml caused a server error. This
481 issue has been fixed.
484 2009-06-17 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
487 - If a new game matched between two players is not started within
488 a certain time (default 120 seconds) (i.e. the agree_waiting or
489 start_waiting state lasts too long), the Server REJECTs the game.
492 2009-06-15 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
495 - When a Gote player AGREEd a new game and then a Sente player
496 logged out (LOGOUT), the Gote incorrectly received a LOGOUT message
497 from the server. Since Gote's state was not AGREEd or STARTed yet,
498 the Gote should be REJECTed. This issue has been fixed.
501 2009-06-14 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
504 - The Board could not recognize a certain pattern of
505 Oute-Sennichite. This issue has been fixed.
508 2009-03-22 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
510 * [utils/correct-bug14635.rb]
511 - Added a new file. This program corrects illegal lines introduced
514 2009-03-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
517 - Improved performance.
519 2009-02-15 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
522 - A duplicated comment that is the one of the previous (or older)
523 move might be erroneously recorded in a csa file. This issue has
524 been fixed. (Closes: #15080)
526 2009-02-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
528 * [utils/csa-filter.rb]
529 - Added a new file. This program filters CSA files.
531 2009-02-01 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
534 - The shogi-server records csa files of games in an illegal
535 format. This issue has been fixed. (Closes: #14635)
536 - A ##[MONITOR] command for showing a game result such as %TORYO
537 was not correct. This issue has been fixed.
539 2009-01-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
542 - It failed to proccess a game result, OuteKaihiMoreWin where a
543 checked king does not escape. This issue has been fixed.
545 2009-01-02 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
548 - shogi_server/timeout_queue.rb: the timeout parameter of the
549 constructor was not respected erroneously. This issue
551 - shogi_server/players.rb: When a player was finishing with its
552 write socket broken, there was a chance that the thread of the
553 player in the giant lock had to wait for a long time (about 20
554 seconds), which might cause threads of other players stop and
555 time out. (Closes: #14469)
557 2008-12-30 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
560 - Added a new option: --footer filename, which inserts contents of
561 the filename at the bottom of a generated page. A text specific to
562 wdoor should be written by using this option.
564 - It does no more depend on RDoc. RDoc::usage does not work well
567 2008-12-28 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
570 - Check kifu files more carefully so that files that contain
571 incomplete records are skipped.
572 - mk_rate might have failed to alloc due to out of memory. Now it
573 consumes less memory (about 200MB instead of 2GB).
574 - File names can be put into STDIN instead of specifying directory
575 names in command line arguments.
577 - New file. It filters kifu files and is of use for a pre-filter
580 2008-12-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
583 - Improved an existance check and etc. of directories specified
584 by command line options, especially in case of the daemon mode.
586 - A rotated log file is moved to $topdir/YYYY/MM/DD.
589 2008-11-27 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
592 - Added sample/*.sh for command line samples.
594 2008-11-24 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
597 - Added a new option --floodgate-history, which allows users to
598 specify a file name that stores the records of games. The
599 records are taken care of when games are matched.
601 2008-10-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
603 * [utils/eval_graph.rb]
604 - Display time control graphs as well.
605 Thanks to Nishimura-san for this idea.
608 2008-10-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
611 - Ruby 1.8.7 (or later) must be used. Ruby 1.8.6 is not supported.
612 - Daemon mode is available.
613 - shogi_server/piece_ky.rb is again merged with
614 shogi_server/piece.rb, then has been removed.
615 - Added a test case, TC_usi.rb.
617 2008-06-30 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
620 - Added a new option --player-log-dir, which allows users to log
621 messages that are received or sent to the wire.
623 2008-06-28 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
626 - A rating comment line is now written before the first move in a
627 record file instead of after the last move, which allows other
628 applications watching a game to recognize players in the middle
629 of the game. (Closes #12821)
630 - If a player, including a monitor, stuck at the time of sending
631 messages to the wire, which means that the giant lock was locked,
632 it might have prevented other players from processing until
633 timeout occurred. This issue has been fixed. (Closes #12555)
635 2008-06-27 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
638 - Pairing players might not have shuffled players because of
639 poor shuffling algorithm. This issue has been fixed.
642 2008-06-25 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
645 - Check invalid arguments. (Closes: #12856)
647 2008-06-23 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
650 - Added a new option: --fixed-rate and --fixed-rate-player
651 whose rate always results in that rate. (Closes: #12800)
653 2008-06-06 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
656 - The source has been splited to multiple sub files.
657 - The program now depends on rubygems and activesupport.
658 - The program can reload the source files on the flight, by
659 sending a HUP signal to the server.
660 - The server log will be rotated daily.
662 2008-05-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
665 - Last game results (win or lose) of x1 players were not
666 available on the next game. This issue has been fixed.
667 Thanks to Tomoyuki Kaneko for debugging.
668 - For draw games, "'rating" line in a .csa file was
669 wrong (meaningless). This issue has been fixed.
671 2008-05-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
674 - The repository has been converted from CVS to Subversion.
676 2008-05-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
679 - Floodgate's thread could cause an error when players.yaml was
680 cleared by another program (mk_rate). This issue has been
682 - Give default values to BasicPlayer, which fixed undefined
683 method error in Pairing.
685 2008-05-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
688 - The server could not recognize uchifuzume as an illegal move.
689 This bug has been fixed.
690 - The server crashed by an undefined method error.
691 This issue has been fixed.
693 2008-05-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
696 - .csa files will be located in a sub directory such as
697 "2008/05/05/*.csa". These days, we have many games in a day.
698 This change will help users browse a file list.
700 2008-05-03 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
703 - Show players who have accessed in the last 30 minutes with
706 2008-04-22 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
709 - When YSS was not rated on the wdoor mode, wrong rate24 scores
710 were displayed. This issue has been fixed. Now YSS absence
713 2008-04-21 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
716 - The half-life period is now configurable.
717 ex $ ./mk_rate --half-life 14 --half-life-ignore 7 <records>
719 2008-04-12 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
722 - Renamed variables (@id) since they caused Ruby's warning.
724 2008-04-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
727 - Improved a way to handle diferred moves (2008-03-24's change),
728 based on Tomoyuki Kaneko's patch.
730 2008-04-01 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
733 - An incorrect LOGIN crashed the server. This issue has been
736 2008-03-24 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
739 - Converting characters for comments in moves caused an error. This
740 issue has been fixed.
741 - If a player moves in the opponent's turn, it is illegal. But the
742 current CSA protocol does not clearly define a way to tell so to
743 the players. This shogi-server internally keeps such a move in a
744 buffer and replay it when the player of the move gets his/her
747 2008-03-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
750 - Erroneously, Board#to_s's current player was always Black.
751 It caused wrong determination of sennichite since it did not
752 care about the current player of a state. This has been fixed.
753 Thanks Takada-san for reporting this bug.
755 2008-03-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
757 * [util/players-graph.rb]
758 - Applied Kaneko-san's patch, which also shows expected-rate24
760 - Small PNG gets smaller.
762 2008-03-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
765 - Added an option --wdoor. In this mode, a rate expected at Shogi
766 Club 24 is calculated from YSS's rating (he is 2400 now).
768 2008-03-04 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
771 - If the computed ratings do not stabilize, then mk_rate aborts.
772 $ ./mk_rate dir && ./mk_rate dir > players.yaml
773 can avoid rewriting the invalid ratings to the file.
775 2008-02-23 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
778 - A comment is converted to EUC-JP and then written in a log.
779 Note that this conversion guesses the input encoding. Clients
780 are recommended to send EUC-JP compatible strings to the
783 2008-02-21 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
785 * [util/players-graph.rb]
786 - Released. Draw a chart for a player's rating score.
788 2008-02-17 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
791 - An illegal teban specified for Floodgate login could crash the
792 server. This issue has been fixed.
794 2008-02-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
797 - Thread.abort_on_exception is now false, meaning that
798 a thread's abort does not affect the others.
799 - The uchifuzume check did not generate promoting moves, which
800 could crash the server with illegal moves. This issue has
803 2008-02-14 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
806 - Added a new pairing variation, Swiss-like style. Winners at the
807 previous games (his/her point of view, not the server's) are
808 paired first, and then the others are matched. This is the
810 - Pairing classes are located in a separate source file,
811 pairing.rb. The file is 'load'ed each time to be used,
812 meaning that modifying the code will be applied to a running
814 - You can specify a single player who will be out of pairing
815 when there are odd players waiting for Floodgate.
817 2008-02-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
820 - When there are odd players wating for Floodgate, the random
821 pairing deletes the player who has ever played the most games.
823 2008-02-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
826 - For the Not-Yet-Rated group, those who have not connected
827 recently are not listed.
829 - Floodgate's thread checks the current time each 10 secs.
831 2008-02-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
833 * [mk_rate] [mk_html]
834 - Display not-yet-rated players as well.
836 - Use Yahoo! UI Library.
838 2008-02-04 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
840 * [shogi-server] [webserver]
841 - In the daemon mode, if the specified directory was a relative
842 path, the server could fail to start with a permission denied
843 error. This issue has been fixed. The path is interpreted as
844 an absolute path before switching to daemon.
845 - In the daemon mode, a wrong process id was written in
846 '--pid-file'. This issue has been fixed. Also, the pid file
847 will be removed when the server shuts down.
849 2008-02-03 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
852 - Game names that are recognized as the floodgate mode are now
853 /^floodgate-\d+-\d+$/.
854 - Floodgate could not schedule the next time when it was the next
855 day. This issue has been fixed.
857 2008-02-02 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
860 - Implemented a new feature, Floodgate mode, for covenience with
861 public rating games. Now there is a special game "wdoor-900-0".
862 Matching players for that game is scheduled each 30 minitues.
864 2007-11-03 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
867 - Support Ruby 1.8.6 patch level 111 (or higher) and GSL 1.10 (or higher).
868 It may not work with lower verions.
870 2007-09-06 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
873 - The logic to detect Oute-Sennichite was not complete. Both players
874 (checking side and escaping side) may cause Oute-Sennichite. The old
875 logic only cared for the checking player. This issue has been fixed.
877 2007-06-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
880 - Initial version. This web server is an interface between HTTP and
881 shogi-server. Shogi-server commands will be available over HTTP. As
882 of now %%LIST and %%WHO commands are supported.
884 - Bumped up GAME_LIMIT (from 10) to 15 because the calculation of
885 rates sometimes went wrong (infinite values).
887 2007-04-21 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
890 - Implemented `CHALLENGE' command, and the server will respond with
891 `CHALLENGE ACCEPTED'. Note that this command is dummy for this server
892 because it is only available for CSA's official testing server and does
893 not belong to the CSA standard protocol. Therefor, when clients receive
894 `CHALLENGE ACCEPTED' from this server, they must ignore it.
895 - Show revision in a start up message.
897 2007-04-01 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
900 - Implemented one of the keepalive protocol in CSA protocol; If clients
901 send LF, the server sends back LF.
902 - More care for socket errors.
904 2007-03-27 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
906 * [mk_rate] When there were too few games to rate players (i.e. no
907 player to rate), mk_rate caused an error. Now it no longer shows
910 2007-03-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
912 * [mk_html] Popup shows additional information.
914 2007-03-02 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
917 - Use WEBrick for server framework.
918 - Daemon mode is available.
920 2007-02-26 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
923 - Failed to show usage. This issue has been fixed.
924 - Initial start of the server failed beacause of empty players.yaml.
925 This issues has been fixed.
927 2007-02-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
930 - Show groups in the order specified in players.html.
931 - Players who gamed recently have a background color.
933 - Implemented half-life effect. Numbers of win/lose decrease by this effect.
935 2006-11-26 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
937 * [shogi-server] Sente (gote) was able to move gote's (sente's) hand.
938 That move should be illegal. This issue has been fixed.
940 2006-11-01 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
942 * [mk_rate] Skip "abnormal" games, which were finished because of
943 network failure or communication error. Recently some programs seem
944 to have a lot of tries to connect to the Shogi Server at wdoor for
945 debugging. We should ignore such games for a while to get a meaningful
948 2006-10-30 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
951 - Put players into "connected" groups in order to
952 show a correct, meaningful rating. In the group, each player has at
953 least a game with other players.
954 - The format of players.yaml was updated.
955 * [shogi-server] Followed the new format of players.yaml.
957 2006-10-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
959 * [mk_rate] Corrected making win_loss_matrix.
961 2006-10-02 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
963 * [mk_rate] players who never win or lose are not rated in order
964 the calculation to complete.
966 2006-09-30 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
968 * [shogi-server] The CSA mode supports the trip in a password.
970 2006-09-22 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
972 * [shogi-server] Refactored the login procedures.
974 2006-09-21 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
976 * [mk_rate] It failed parse draw games. Now this bug has been fixed.
977 * [mk_html] Add CSS to look better.
979 2006-09-15 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
982 - Remove the trip in a password. Now the password is hashed.
984 - Support @NORATE syntax in a name, which avoids the player is
987 2006-09-09 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
990 - Support a new command, %%VERSION. It shows the server's revision#.
992 2006-09-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
995 - Re-design: trip is now a suffix of the password, not name.
996 - Simplified the output of %%RATING.
998 - Support "@" indentificaton in a name; players with same
999 before-@-names are mapped to one.
1001 2006-09-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1003 * [mk_rate] Fix a bug. It solves the correct rate.
1005 2006-08-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1007 * [mk_rate] Re-design.
1008 - Correct the equations.
1009 - Apply deaccelerated Newton method.

1045 * Add a command, %%RATING, to show a ranking sorted by rates.
1047 2006-07-31 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1049 * Add a simple rating system.
