4 - shogi_server/{game,time_clock}.rb:
5 Adds variations of thinking time calculation: ChessClock
6 (current) and StopWatchClock (new).
7 StopWatchClock, which is usually used at official games of human
8 professional players, is a clock where thiking time less than a
9 miniute is regarded as zero.
10 To select StopWatchClock, use a special game name with "060"
11 byoyomi time. ex. "gamename_1500_060".

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

41 - Backported a5c94012656902e73e00f46e7a4c7004b24d4578:
42 test/TC_logger.rb depeneded on a specific directory where it was
43 running on. This issues has been fixed.
44 - Backported 87d145bd1f1a14a33f5f6fbc78b63a1952f1ca90 and
45 2df8c798aeb7f0e77735e893fd1370c2c6f15c4d:
46 shogi_server/floodgate.rb: Generating next time around the new
47 year day by reading configuration files did not work correctly.
48 This issue has been fixed.
50 2012-12-28 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
53 - shogi_server/pairing.rb:
54 + There was a bug in the logic avoiding human-human match.
55 This issue has been fixed.
56 + Improved the logic avoiding human-human match. Human-human
57 matches will less likely happen.
59 2010-10-06 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
62 - mk_rate: the usage was not updated.
63 Thanks to Hoki-san to report this issue. (Closes: #23358)
65 2010-09-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
68 - shogi_server/board.rb, game.rb: For hadicapped games, wrong
69 initial positions were delivered to players and monitors. This
70 issue has been fixed. (Closes: #23245)
71 Thanks to HIDETCHI for reporting the issue.
73 2010-09-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
76 - shogi_server/login.rb: Enhanced the CSA Login mode.
77 Logging in the server with the CSA mode, users are now allowed to
78 specify a turn preference in an enhanced gamename string which
79 looks like <gamename>-<time>-<time>-<turn>. The first three
80 parts are a regular game definition. The last "-<turn>"
82 + Without -<turn> (i.e. same as the previous behavior), there
83 is no turn preference. A user's turn will be defined randomly.
84 + <turn> is either "B" for black or "W" for white.
86 2010-09-04 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
89 - shogi_server/{board,command,game,league,player}.rb
90 The Buoy behaivor is changed.
91 + Starting a buoy game, players are notified a starting game
92 position with the initial position and moves, instread of a
94 + Players are allowed to start buoy games with specific turns.
95 ex. %%GAME buoy_foo-1500-0 +
97 2010-08-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
100 - shogi_server/command.rb: Prevent a possible password from be
101 logged in a log file when players send invalid LOGIN-like commands.
102 Thanks to Tomoyuki Kaneko for this idea.
104 2010-08-03 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
107 - sample/{check_file.rb,check_time.rb,check_time2.rb,test_time.rb}:
108 Added new files to test an issue where mtime of log files was
109 earlier than system time.
110 - shogi_server/league/floodgate_thread.rb: SetupFloodgate#start
111 now returns an instance correctly.
112 - ../shogi_server.rb, ../shogi_server/util.rb: Refactored
113 mkdir_for to Mkdir.mkdir_for.
114 - ../shogi_server/game.rb: mkdir_p will be performed in a global
115 mutex of ShogiServer::Mkdir.
117 2010-07-25 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
120 - shogi_server/command.rb:
121 + For an unknown error command log, an empty line is no longer logged.
122 + Commands specific to 81Dojo, starting with '%%%', are just
123 ignored instead of unknown command errors.
125 + Refactoring. Added test/TC_logger.rb to test
126 ShogiServer::Logger class.
127 + Fixed race condition: creating a new directory to archive
128 logs may have caused race condition, which ended up with
129 making the server unavailable. This issue has been fixed.
131 + Improved fault tolerance of the server.
133 2010-07-23 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
136 - shogi_server/league/floodgate_thread.rb: When the server run
137 with DEBUG mode, it ended up with an undefined variable error.
138 This issue has been fixed.
140 2010-07-17 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
143 - shogi_server.rb, shogi_server/board.rb, shogi_server/move.rb
144 - Refactoring: Board can now move_to() and move_back() a move
145 instread of deep_copy().
147 2010-07-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
150 - shogi_server/player.rb: Set initial values to BasicPlayer's
152 - shogi_server/league.rb: Improved performance of
153 Persistant#get_players. It took about 20 seconds for a large
154 size of players (5,300 lines in players.yaml). Now it completes in an
157 2010-06-22 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
160 - A new command line option:
161 --floodgate-names GameStringA[,GameStringB[,...]]
162 where a game string should be a valid game name such as
165 Note: Without this option, no floodgate games are started. If
166 you want floodgate-900-0 to run, which was default enabled in
167 previous versions, you need to spefify the game name in this new
169 - Floodgate time configuration file:
170 You need to set starting times of floodgate groups in
171 configuration files under the top directory. Each floodgat
172 e group requires a correspoding configuration file named
173 "<game_name>.conf". The file will be re-read once just after a
176 For example, a floodgate-3600-30 game group requires
177 floodgate-3600-30.conf. However, for floodgate-900-0 and
178 floodgate-3600-0, which were default enabled in previous
179 versions, configuration files are optional if you are happy with
180 defualt time settings.

200 - shogi_server/command.rb: Fixed an issue that MONITOR2OFF did not
201 work. Thanks to HIDECHI and koudayu.
203 2010-05-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
206 - test/*.rb: Improved performance and stability of tests
207 - shogi_server/player.rb: Help the write_thread to terminate
209 2010-05-06 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
212 - Previously mk_rate did not count in draw games. Now a draw game
213 is considered to weight 0.5 win and 0.5 loss. Respect
214 Inaniwa-shogi which strategically aims to draw.
215 - a new command line option, --skip-draw-games. In this mode, draw
216 games are just ignored as mk_rate previously did.
218 2010-04-25 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
221 - shogi_server/player.rb:
222 Log a warning message in a case that a player closes a
225 2010-04-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
228 - shogi_server/command.rb:
229 Equality of MonitorHandler class was wrong. %%MONITOROFF and
230 %%MONITOR2OFF may cause unexpected behavior. This issue has been
231 fixed. Thanks to Kota Fujiwara for reporting.
233 2010-03-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
236 - If two sequential moves from a player are identical, the last
237 one will be ignored and a game is in play. This situation might
238 happen with human players, especially on slow network,
239 impatiently sending a move twice.
241 2010-02-27 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
244 - The server now provides more accurate time control. Previouslly,
245 a player's thinking time included a time waiting to get the giant
246 lock. This may have caused games to time up, especially, during
249 2010-01-22 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
252 - Experimental feature: support handicapped games.
253 Game names that have the following prefixes are recognized as
254 handicapped games. Turn symbols "+" and "-" mean Uwate (expert)
255 and Shitate (beginner) respectively (i.e. Uwate players first).
256 "*" is not available.
266 2010-01-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
269 - shogi_server/command.rb, test/TC_command.rb
270 Proposal implementation of a new command called MONITOR2{ON,OFF}.
271 When the MONITOR2ON command is issued by a player, the server
272 immediately sends the player the entire contents of a record
273 file of the game, i.e. history of moves and so on, at that time.
274 Then, the server will forward subsequent moves like they are
275 appended to the record file.
276 - Behavior changed: A player monitoring a game with MONITORON will
277 not receive Game#show again when a gaming player resigns (:toryo).
279 2010-01-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
281 * Converted the repository from Subversion to Git.
283 2009-12-26 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
286 - The server can now provide multiple floodgate modes such as
287 floodgate-900-0 and floodgate-3600-0.
289 2009-12-25 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
292 - shogi-server: The command line option --floodgate-history has
293 been deprectated. The server will decide history file names such
294 as 'floodgate_history_900_0.yaml' and
295 'floodgate_history_3600_0.yaml', and then put them in the top
298 2009-12-20 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
301 - shogi_server/player.rb: Added new methods: is_human? and
303 A human player is recommened to use a name ending with '_human'.
304 ex. 'hoge_human', 'hoge_human@p1'
305 - shogi_server/pairing.rb: Added a new class:
306 StartGameWithoutHumans, which tries to make pairs trying to
307 avoid a human-human match. This is now enabled instread of the
308 previous class: StartGame.
309 - shogi-server, shogi_server/league/floodgate.rb:
310 Changed the argument of Floodgate.new.
312 2009-12-04 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
315 - The HUP signal is not supported by Ruby on Windows.
317 2009-11-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
320 - Added a new command line option: --base-date. You can specify a
321 base date to calculate rating scores. Games in the `future' are
322 ignored for the calculation.
324 2009-11-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
327 - The server logs a result of each game to a file named '00LIST',
328 which will be used to generate players.yaml. If the file does
329 not exist, the server will create one automatically.
330 Instruction to use the game result list file:
331 1. Make a list of game results from exisiting CSA files with
333 % ./mk_game_results dir_of_csa_files > 00LIST
334 2. Run the server. It appends a result of each game to
335 '00LIST' when the game finishes.
336 3. From the list of game results, calculate rating scores of
338 % ./mk_rate 00LIST > players.yaml
340 2009-11-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
343 - Split a pre-process collecting game results from csa files into
344 a new command, mk_game_results. Now, Generating players.yaml
345 requires two steps as follows:
346 % ./mk_game_results dir_of_csa_files > 00LIST
347 % ./mk_rate 00LIST > players.yaml
349 % ./mk_game_results dir_of_csa_files | ./mk_rate > players.yaml
352 2009-08-06 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
355 - A experimental new feature, codenamed Buoy: it allows players to
356 play a game starting with a specified position. First, a player
357 sets a buoy game with moves to a specific position. Then, two
358 players can play a new game with the game name.
360 + %%SETBUOY <game_name> <moves> [count]
362 ex. %%SETBUOY buoy_foo-900-0 +7776FU 10
363 ex. %%SETBUOY buoy_foo-1500-0 +7776FU-3334FU
364 - game_name is a valid game name with a prefix "buoy_".
366 - moves are initial moves from the Hirate position to a
367 spcific position that you want to start with.
368 ex. +7776FU-3334FU+8786FU
369 - count is an optional attribute to tell how many times the
370 game can be played (default 1). The count is decremented
371 when the game finishes. If the count reaches zero, the buoy
372 game is removed automatically by the server.
374 + %%DELETEBUOY <game_name>
375 Delete a buoy game. The only owner who set up the game is
376 allowed to delete it.
377 ex. %%DELETEBUOY buoy_foo-900-0
378 - game_name is the buoy game name that was created.
379 + %%GETBUOYCOUNT <game_name>
380 Show a current count of the buoy game or -1 for non-existing
384 2009-07-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
387 - shogi_server/command.rb: refactored commands out of player.rb.
389 2009-06-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
392 - An emtpy floodgate_history.yaml caused a server error. This
393 issue has been fixed.
396 2009-06-17 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
399 - If a new game matched between two players is not started within
400 a certain time (default 120 seconds) (i.e. the agree_waiting or
401 start_waiting state lasts too long), the Server REJECTs the game.
404 2009-06-15 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
407 - When a Gote player AGREEd a new game and then a Sente player
408 logged out (LOGOUT), the Gote incorrectly received a LOGOUT message
409 from the server. Since Gote's state was not AGREEd or STARTed yet,
410 the Gote should be REJECTed. This issue has been fixed.
413 2009-06-14 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
416 - The Board could not recognize a certain pattern of
417 Oute-Sennichite. This issue has been fixed.
420 2009-03-22 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
422 * [utils/correct-bug14635.rb]
423 - Added a new file. This program corrects illegal lines introduced
426 2009-03-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
429 - Improved performance.
431 2009-02-15 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
434 - A duplicated comment that is the one of the previous (or older)
435 move might be erroneously recorded in a csa file. This issue has
436 been fixed. (Closes: #15080)
438 2009-02-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
440 * [utils/csa-filter.rb]
441 - Added a new file. This program filters CSA files.
443 2009-02-01 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
446 - The shogi-server records csa files of games in an illegal
447 format. This issue has been fixed. (Closes: #14635)
448 - A ##[MONITOR] command for showing a game result such as %TORYO
449 was not correct. This issue has been fixed.
451 2009-01-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
454 - It failed to proccess a game result, OuteKaihiMoreWin where a
455 checked king does not escape. This issue has been fixed.
457 2009-01-02 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
460 - shogi_server/timeout_queue.rb: the timeout parameter of the
461 constructor was not respected erroneously. This issue
463 - shogi_server/players.rb: When a player was finishing with its
464 write socket broken, there was a chance that the thread of the
465 player in the giant lock had to wait for a long time (about 20
466 seconds), which might cause threads of other players stop and
467 time out. (Closes: #14469)
469 2008-12-30 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
472 - Added a new option: --footer filename, which inserts contents of
473 the filename at the bottom of a genrated page. A text specific to
474 wdoor should be written by using this option.
476 - It does no more depend on RDoc. RDoc::usage does not work well
479 2008-12-28 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
482 - Check kifu files more carefully so that files that contain
483 incomplete records are skipped.
484 - mk_rate might have failed to alloc due to out of memory. Now it
485 consumes less memory (about 200MB instead of 2GB).
486 - File names can be put into STDIN instead of specifying directory
487 names in command line arguments.
489 - New file. It filters kifu files and is of use for a pre-filter
492 2008-12-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
495 - Improved an existance check and etc. of directories specified
496 by command line options, expecially in case of the daemon mode.
498 - A lotated log file is moved to $topdir/YYYY/MM/DD.
501 2008-11-27 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
504 - Added sample/*.sh for command line samples.
506 2008-11-24 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
509 - Added a new option --floodgate-history, which allows users to
510 specify a file name that stores the records of games. The
511 records are taken care of when games are matched.
513 2008-10-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
515 * [utils/eval_graph.rb]
516 - Display time control graphs as well.
517 Thanks to Nishimura-san for this idea.
520 2008-10-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
523 - Ruby 1.8.7 (or later) must be used. Ruby 1.8.6 is not supported.
524 - Daemon mode is available.
525 - shogi_server/piece_ky.rb is again merged with
526 shogi_server/piece.rb, then has been removed.
527 - Added a test case, TC_usi.rb.
529 2008-06-30 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
532 - Added a new option --player-log-dir, which allows users to log
533 messages that are received or sent to the wire.
535 2008-06-28 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
538 - A rating comment line is now written before the first move in a
539 record file instead of after the last move, which allows other
540 applications watching a game to recognize players in the middle
541 of the game. (Closes #12821)
542 - If a player, including a monitor, stuck at the time of sending
543 messages to the wire, which means that the giant lock was locked,
544 it might have prevented other players from processing until
545 timeout occurred. This issue has been fixed. (Closes #12555)
547 2008-06-27 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
550 - Pairing players might not have shuffled players because of
551 poor shuffling algorithm. This issue has been fixed.
554 2008-06-25 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
557 - Check invalid arguments. (Closes: #12856)
559 2008-06-23 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
562 - Added a new option: --fixed-rate and --fixed-rate-player
563 whose rate always results in that rate. (Closes: #12800)
565 2008-06-06 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
568 - The source has been splited to multiple sub files.
569 - The program now depends on rubygems and activesupport.
570 - The program can reload the source files on the flight, by
571 sending a HUP signal to the server.
572 - The server log will be rotated daily.
574 2008-05-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
577 - Last game results (win or lose) of x1 players were not
578 available on the next game. This issue has been fixed.
579 Thanks to Tomoyuki Kaneko for debugging.
580 - For draw games, "'rating" line in a .csa file was
581 wrong (meaningless). This issue has been fixed.
583 2008-05-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
586 - The repository has been converted from CVS to Subversion.
588 2008-05-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
591 - Floodgate's thread could cause an error when players.yaml was
592 cleared by another program (mk_rate). This issue has been
594 - Give default values to BasicPlayer, which fixed undefined
595 method error in Pairing.
597 2008-05-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
600 - The server could not recognize uchifuzume as an illegal move.
601 This bug has been fixed.
602 - The server crashed by an undefined method error.
603 This issue has been fixed.
605 2008-05-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
608 - .csa files will be located in a sub directory such as
609 "2008/05/05/*.csa". Thease days, we have many games in a day.
610 This change will help users browse a file list.
612 2008-05-03 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
615 - Show players who have accessed in the last 30 minutes with
618 2008-04-22 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
621 - When YSS was not rated on the wdoor mode, wrong rate24 scores
622 were displayed. This issue has been fixed. Now YSS absence
625 2008-04-21 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
628 - The half-life period is now configurable.
629 ex $ ./mk_rate --half-life 14 --half-life-ignore 7 <records>
631 2008-04-12 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
634 - Renamed variables (@id) since they caused Ruby's warning.
636 2008-04-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
639 - Improved a way to handle diferred moves (2008-03-24's change),
640 based on Tomoyuki Kaneko's patch.
642 2008-04-01 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
645 - An incorrect LOGIN crashed the server. This issue has been

651 - Converting characters for comments in moves caused an error. This
652 issue has been fixed.
653 - If a player moves in the opponent's turn, it is illegal. But the
654 current CSA protocol does not clearly define a way to tell so to
655 the players. This shogi-server internally keeps such a move in a
656 buffer and replay it when the player of the move gets his/her
659 2008-03-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
662 - Erroneously, Board#to_s's current player was always Black.
663 It caused wrong determination of sennichite since it did not
664 care about the current player of a state. This has been fixed.
665 Thanks Takada-san for reporting this bug.
667 2008-03-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
669 * [util/players-graph.rb]
670 - Applied Kaneko-san's patch, which also shows expected-rate24
672 - Small PNG gets smaller.
674 2008-03-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
677 - Added an option --wdoor. In this mode, a rate expected at Shogi
678 Club 24 is calculated from YSS's rating (he is 2400 now).
680 2008-03-04 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
683 - If the computed ratings do not stabilize, then mk_rate aborts.
684 $ ./mk_rate dir && ./mk_rate dir > players.yaml
685 can avoid rewriting the invalid ratings to the file.
687 2008-02-23 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
690 - A comment is converted to EUC-JP and then written in a log.
691 Note that this conversion guesses the input encoding. Clients
692 are recommended to send EUC-JP compatible strings to the
695 2008-02-21 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
697 * [util/players-graph.rb]
698 - Released. Draw a chart for a player's rating score.
700 2008-02-17 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
703 - An illegal teban specified for Floodgate login could crash the
704 server. This issue has been fixed.
706 2008-02-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
709 - Thread.abort_on_exception is now false, meaning that
710 a thread's abort does not affect the others.
711 - The uchifuzume check did not generate promoting moves, which
712 could crash the server with illegal moves. This issue has
715 2008-02-14 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
718 - Added a new pairing variation, Swiss-like style. Winners at the
719 previous games (his/her point of view, not the server's) are
720 paired first, and then the others are matched. This is the
722 - Pairing classes are located in a separate source file,
723 pairing.rb. The file is 'load'ed each time to be used,
724 meaning that modifying the code will be applied to a running
726 - You can specify a single player who will be out of pairing
727 when there are odd players waiting for Floodgate.
729 2008-02-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
732 - When there are odd players wating for Floodgate, the random
733 pairing deletes the player who has ever played the most games.
735 2008-02-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
738 - For the Not-Yet-Rated group, those who have not connected
739 recently are not listed.
741 - Floodgate's thread checks the current time each 10 secs.
743 2008-02-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
745 * [mk_rate] [mk_html]
746 - Display not-yet-rated players as well.
748 - Use Yahoo! UI Library.
750 2008-02-04 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
752 * [shogi-server] [webserver]
753 - In the daemon mode, if the specified directory was a relative
754 path, the server could fail to start with a permission denied
755 error. This issue has been fixed. The path is interpreted as
756 an absolute path before switching to daemon.
757 - In the daemon mode, a wrong process id was written in
758 '--pid-file'. This issue has been fixed. Also, the pid file
759 will be removed when the server shuts down.
761 2008-02-03 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
764 - Game names that are recognized as the floodgate mode are now
765 /^floodgate-\d+-\d+$/.
766 - Floodgate could not schedule the next time when it was the next
767 day. This issue has been fixed.
769 2008-02-02 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
772 - Implemented a new feature, Floodgate mode, for covenience with
773 public rating games. Now there is a special game "wdoor-900-0".
774 Matching players for that game is scheduled each 30 minitues.
776 2007-11-03 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
779 - Support Ruby 1.8.6 patch level 111 (or higher) and GSL 1.10 (or higher).
780 It may not work with lower verions.
782 2007-09-06 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
785 - The logic to detect Oute-Sennichite was not complete. Both players
786 (checking side and escaping side) may cause Oute-Sennichite. The old
787 logic only cared for the checking player. This issue has been fixed.
789 2007-06-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
792 - Initial version. This web server is an interface between HTTP and
793 shogi-server. Shogi-server commands will be available over HTTP. As
794 of now %%LIST and %%WHO commands are supported.
796 - Bumped up GAME_LIMIT (from 10) to 15 because the calculation of
797 rates sometimes went wrong (infinite values).
799 2007-04-21 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
802 - Implemented `CHALLENGE' command, and the server will respond with
803 `CHALLENGE ACCEPTED'. Note that this command is dummy for this server
804 because it is only available for CSA's official testing server and does
805 not belong to the CSA standard protocol. Therefor, when clients receive
806 `CHALLENGE ACCEPTED' from this server, they must ignore it.
807 - Show revision in a start up message.
809 2007-04-01 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
812 - Implemented one of the keepalive protocol in CSA protocol; If clients
813 send LF, the server sends back LF.
814 - More care for socket errors.
816 2007-03-27 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
818 * [mk_rate] When there were too few games to rate players (i.e. no
819 player to rate), mk_rate caused an error. Now it no longer shows
822 2007-03-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
824 * [mk_html] Popup shows additional information.
826 2007-03-02 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
829 - Use WEBrick for server framework.
830 - Daemon mode is available.
832 2007-02-26 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
835 - Failed to show usage. This issue has been fixed.
836 - Initial start of the server failed beacause of empty players.yaml.
837 This issues has been fixed.
839 2007-02-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
842 - Show groups in the order specified in players.html.
843 - Players who gamed recently have a background color.
845 - Implemented half-life effect. Numbers of win/lose decrease by this effect.
847 2006-11-26 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
849 * [shogi-server] Sente (gote) was able to move gote's (sente's) hand.
850 That move should be illegal. This issue has been fixed.
852 2006-11-01 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
854 * [mk_rate] Skip "abnormal" games, which were finished because of
855 network failure or communication error. Recently some programs seem
856 to have a lot of tries to connect to the Shogi Server at wdoor for
857 debugging. We should ignore such games for a while to get a meaningful
860 2006-10-30 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
863 - Put players into "connected" groups in order to
864 show a correct, meaningful rating. In the group, each player has at
865 least a game with other players.
866 - The format of players.yaml was updated.
867 * [shogi-server] Followed the new format of players.yaml.
869 2006-10-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
871 * [mk_rate] Corrected making win_loss_matrix.
873 2006-10-02 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
875 * [mk_rate] players who never win or lose are not rated in order
876 the calculation to complete.
878 2006-09-30 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
880 * [shogi-server] The CSA mode supports the trip in a password.

894 - Remove the trip in a password. Now the password is hashed.
896 - Support @NORATE syntax in a name, which avoids the player is
899 2006-09-09 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
902 - Support a new command, %%VERSION. It shows the server's revision#.
904 2006-09-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
907 - Re-design: trip is now a suffix of the password, not name.
908 - Simplified the output of %%RATING.
910 - Support "@" indentificaton in a name; players with same
911 before-@-names are mapped to one.
913 2006-09-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
915 * [mk_rate] Fix a bug. It solves the correct rate.
