+
+ * [shogi-server] Allow to customize maximum lenght of a login indentifier
+ (Closes #36821)
+ - The current maximum length of a login identifier is 32. Some
+ private uses require longer player names to distinguish each other
+ by specifying randomly generated tokens. It would of help to add a
+ new command line option --max-identifier to overwrite the default
+ maximum length.
+ * Build a Docker image for Shogi-server
+ (Closes #36822)
+ - Build a Docker image
+ % make image-build
+ - Running a local shogi-server would look like
+ % docker pull shogiserver/shogiserver
+ % docker run -p 4081:4081 -v `pwd`/logs:/logs shogiserver/shogiserver
+ * [shogi-server] shogi_server/game.rb:
+ - Remove a debug message
+
+2016-04-09 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
+
+ * utils/eval_graph.rb
+ - Support Fischer time control.
+ * [shogi-server] Bump up the revision to 20160409.
+
+2016-04-02 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
+
+ * [shogi-server] Support Fischer Time Control
+ (Closes #36230)
+ - Fischer time control means that:
+ Before a player has made their move, a specified time increment is
+ added to their clock. Time can be accumulated, so if the player
+ moves within the delay period, their remaining time actually
+ increases.
+ (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chess_clock)
+ - New syntax of game names:
+ An 'F' suffix denotes a Fisher time in seconds. For example,
+ "floodgate-600-10F" specifies
+ + A floodgate game
+ + Total allotted time is 600 seconds for each player
+ + 10-second increment before a player's move in a Fischer way
+ - The server now proposes game conditions upon a game start with
+ - "Protocol_Version 1.2"
+ - "Increment:<n>" for Fischer Time Control
+ - Kifu files can include the following comment for Fischer Time
+ Control:
+ - "'Increment:<n>"
+ * [shogi-server] Fix some lint warnings.
+
+2015-12-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
+
+ * [shogi-server] Enhance capability of Floodgate configuration file
+ - New parameter: Max_Moves, defined in the CSA protocol
+ ex. set Max_Moves 256
+ - New parameter: Least_Time_Per_Move, defined in the CSA protocol
+ ex. set Least_Time_Per_Move 0
+ - Proposed messages distributed to each player upon starting a new
+ game will include Max_Moves as well as Least_Time_Per_Move.
+ - CSA files produced by the server will include settings of
+ Max_Moves and Least_Time_Per_Move in comment lines as follows:
+ 'Max_Moves:256
+ 'Least_Time_Per_Move:0
+ - The official Shogi-server on wdoor.c.u-tokyo.ac.jp will
+ be running with different parameters, depending on game names.
+ a) Max_Moves will be 256 for floodgate-600-10 games;
+ otherwise, 0.
+ b) Least_Time_Per_Move will be 0 for floodgate-600-10 games;
+ otherwise 1.
+ (Closes: #35839)
+ * [shogi-server] shogi_server/pairing.rb:
+ - LeastDiff attempts more trials, depending of a number of players
+ to be matched, top achieve more optimized matching combinations.
+
+2015-11-27 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
+
+ * [shogi-server] shogi_server/time_clock.rb:
+ - A time consumed could be -1.
+ * The start time of a move is captured after sending a move to a
+ player of the next turn at the end of the giant lock
+ * The end time of the move is captured at the exact time when the
+ server receives it before the giant lock
+ Therefore, end_time < start_time is possible when a player returns a
+ move instantly.
+ Thanks to Tomoyuki Kaneko for reporting this issue.
+ (Closes: #35795)
+
+2015-02-14 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
+
+ * util/statistics.rb:
+ - Updated to investigate floodgate-600-10 games.
+ Consult the result at
+ http://www.sgtpepper.net/hyspro/diary/20150214.html.
+ - Added a companion R script: histogram.R
+
+2015-02-01 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
+
+ * [shogi-server]
+ - shogi_server/login.rb: When players are logged in, log their
+ player_id if they have it.
+
+2015-01-20 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
+
+ * [mk_rate]
+ - Getting an absolute path of this file was wrong if it was a
+ symbolic link. This issue has been addressed.
+ * [mk_html]
+ - Links to details pages for players now use a relative path so
+ that it works on a testing site.
+
+2015-01-17 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
+
+ * [shogi-server]
+ - shogi-server, shogi_server/{command,game_result,player}.rb:
+ The change at 2014-10-13 was not worked as expected. Reworked.
+ A player, attempting to login with the current live player
+ stalling for more than a day, can forcibly override the current
+ player.
+
+2015-01-12 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
+
+ * [shogi-server]
+ - shogi_server.rb: Follow an API change in a upstream class:
+ LogDevice.previous_period_end
+
+2014-12-27 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
+
+ * [shogi-server]
+ - When a non-rated player participates in Floodgate, the following exception
+ was thrown and a Floodgate game would not start:
+ undefined method `[]' for nil:NilClass
+ ["/home/shogi-server/www/x/shogi_server/pairing.rb:499:in `block
+ in calculate_diff_with_penalty'"
+ This issue has been resolved. Only players who have player ID
+ (i.e. those who log in with valid password) are now allowed to
+ participate in Floodgate as the spec web page
+ [http://shogi-server.sourceforge.jp/rating.html] describes.
+

+
+ * [shogi-server]
+ - Addressed Ruby incompatibility on ShogiServer::Usi::alphabetToDan.
+ It (and usiToCsa.rb) did not work with Ruby 1.9.3. This issue

+ Thanks to Hiraoka-san for debugging.
+
+2014-12-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
+
+ * utils/eval_graph.rb:
+ - Gnuplot 4.6.6 drew evaluation-value lines with a dashed style.
+ This issue has now been addressed so that solid lines are used.
+
+2014-11-30 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
+
+ * [mk_html]
+ - Corrected a url.
+
+2014-11-24 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
+
+ * Ruby 2.0:
+ - Ruby 2.0.0 or later is recommended to use with shogi-server
+ since Ruby 1.8 reached its End-of-Life on the end of July, 2014.
+ * [shogi-server]
+ - Addressed a warning of duplicated range in a regular expression.
+
+2014-10-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
+
+ * [shogi-server]
+ - A player, attempting to login with the current live player
+ stalling for more than a day, can forcibly override the current
+ player.
+ - Kifu record files now includes rating scores of players at the
+ time when games start. Previously, for rating games, a record
+ file includes player IDs of both players with a line starting with
+ "'rating". Now it also shows rating scores for players who have
+ valid scores. The formats for black and white players are as
+ follows:
+ 'black_rate:<player_id>:<score>
+ 'white_rate:<player_id>:<score>
+ A sample output:
+ 'rating:Test_sente+275876e34cf609db118f3d84b799a790:Test_gote+275876e34cf609db118f3d84b799a790

+
+2014-10-12 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
+
+ * [shogi_server]
+ - New feature: max moves
+ - New command line option: --max-moves n
+ When a game with the n-th move played does not end, make the
+ game a draw (default 256 in compliance with CSA Protocol V1.2
+ or later). Setting 0 disables this feature for
+ CSA Protocol V1.1.2 or before.
+ - Players will receive a new message, "#MAX_MOVES", upon an end
+ of such a game:
+ #MAX_MOVES
+ #CENSORED
+ - A new log summary type, "max_moves", has been assigned for games
+ drawing with max moves.
+ 'summary:max_moves:name_sente draw:name_gote draw
+ - Least time per move:
+ - New command line option: --least-time-per-move n
+ This option specifies a least time in second per move, which
+ is 0 second by default, meaning that a decimal
+ fraction of time for a move will be truncated in compliance
+ with CSA Protocol V1.2 or later.
+ Set 1 for CSA Protocol V1.1.2 or before.
+
+2014-07-19 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
+
+ * [mk_rate]
+ - Added a new option, --abnormal-threshold n:
+ Games that end with the 'abnormal' status are counted in
+ win/lost games for the rating calculation if a game plays more
+ than n plies. Otherwise (or if n is zero), abnormal games are
+ counted out of rating games.

+
+ * [shogi-server]
+ - shogi_server/pairing.rb: Impose penalty on matches between
+ likely kin players.
+
+2013-12-15 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
+
+ * [webserver]
+ - Listen on only IPv4 explicitly. Under ruby 1.9.3p194, without
+ any bind addresses, ruby attempts to listen on both "0.0.0.0"
+ and "::". Specifying "::" on Linux leads to listen on both IPv4
+ and IPv6, which results in a warning message saying "Address
+ already in use - bind(2)".
+ * [shogi-server]
+ - Released: Revision "20131215"
+
+2013-12-14 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
+
+ * [usiToCsa]
+ - Added a new program, bin/usiToCsa.rb, which is a bridge for a

+
+ * [shogi-server]
+ - shogi-server/shogi_server/pairing.rb:
+ - Modified comment for LeastDiff match.
+ - Changed log messages and levels.
+
+2013-12-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
+
+ * [shogi-server]
+ - shogi_server/pairing.rb, player.rb:
+ Simplify estimated rate of unrated players (less memory).
+ - Enhanced syntax of Floodgate time configuration file.
+ Now it supports "set sacrifice <player_id>"; it sets a
+ sacrificed player for a specific Floodgate game.
+ ex. set sacrifice gps500+e293220e3f8a3e59f79f6b0efffaa931
+
+2013-12-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
+
+ * [shogi-server]
+ - Added a new pairing method, ShogiServer::ExcludeUnratedPlayers,
+ which filters out unrated players.
+ - Enhanced syntax of Floodgate time configuration file.
+ Now it supports "set pairing_factory <function_name>"; it sets a
+ factory function name generating a pairing method which will be
+ used in a specific Floodgate game.
+ ex. set pairing_factory floodgate_zyunisen
+ - Implemented conversion of move representation between CSA format
+ and USI one.
+
+2013-11-24 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
+
+ * [shogi-server]
+ - shogi_server/league/floodgate.rb: Improved robustness against
+ empty file under ruby 1.9.3p194
+ - shogi-server:
+ - Previously, reloading in daemon mode failed on
+ ruby 1.9.3p194. This issue has been fixed.
+ - Listen on only IPv4 explicitly. Under ruby 1.9.3p194, without
+ any bind addresses, ruby attempts to listen on both "0.0.0.0"
+ and "::". Specifying "::" on Linux leads to listen on both IPv4
+ and IPv6, which results in a warning message saying "Address
+ already in use - bind(2)".
+ * [mk_game_results]
+ - Fixed for reading Japanese comments under ruby1.9.3p194.
+ * mk_rate-from-grep, mk_rate-grep:
+ - Removed files that are no longer used.
+
+2013-11-23 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
+
+ * [mk_rate]
+ - gsl library may be provided as a gem
+ - Now duplicated inputs are checked and skipped.
+ * test/TC_floodgate.rb
+ - Improved randomness check so that it works on Ruby 2.0.0 as well
+
+2013-11-04 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
+
+ * [mk_rate]
+ - Added a new option, --ignore, which is imported from

+
+2013-09-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
+
+ * [shogi-server]
+ - shogi_server/{game,time_clock}.rb:
+ When StopWatchClock is used, "Time_Unit:" of starting messages
+ in CSA protocol supplies "1min".
+
+2013-04-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
+
+ * [shogi-server]
+ - shogi_server/{game,time_clock}.rb:
+ Adds variations of thinking time calculation: ChessClock
+ (current) and StopWatchClock (new).
+ StopWatchClock, which is usually used at official games of human
+ professional players, is a clock where thiking time less than a
+ miniute is regarded as zero.
+ To select StopWatchClock, use a special game name with "060"
+ byoyomi time. ex. "gamename_1500_060".
+
+2013-03-31 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
+
+ * [shogi-server]
+ - %%FORK command: %%FORK <source_game> [<new_buoy_game>] [<nth-move>]
+ The new_buoy_game parameter is now optional. If it is not
+ supplied, Shogi-server generates a new buoy game name from
+ source_game.
+ - command.rb: More elaborate error messages for the %%GAME command.
+
+2013-03-20 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
+
+ * [shogi-server]
+ - New pairing algorithm: ShogiServer::Pairing::LeastDiff
+ This pairing algorithm aims to minimize the total differences of
+ matching players' rates. It also includes penalyties when a match
+ is same as the previous one or a match is between human players.
+ It is based on a discussion with Yamashita-san on
+ http://www.sgtpepper.net/kaneko/diary/20120511.html.
+
+2013-02-23 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
+
+ * [shogi-server]
+ - New command: %%FORK <source_game> <new_buoy_game> [<nth-move>]
+ Fork a new game from the posistion where the n-th (starting from
+ one) move of a source game is played. The new game should be a
+ valid buoy game name. The default value of n is the position
+ where the previous position of the last one.
+ - The objective of this command: The shogi-server may be used as
+ the back end server of computer-human match where a human player
+ plays with a real board and someone, or a proxy, inputs moves to
+ the shogi-server. If the proxy happens to enter a wrong move,
+ with this command you can restart a new buoy game from the
+ previous stable position.
+ ex. %%FORK server-denou-14400-60+p1+p2+20130223185013 buoy_denou-14400-60

+2010-09-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
+
+ * [shogi-server]
+ - shogi_server/login.rb: Enhanced the CSA Login mode.
+ Logging in the server with the CSA mode, users are now allowed to
+ specify a turn preference in an enhanced gamename string which
+ looks like <gamename>-<time>-<time>-<turn>. The first three
+ parts are a regular game definition. The last "-<turn>"
+ part is optional.
+ + Without -<turn> (i.e. same as the previous behavior), there
+ is no turn preference. A user's turn will be defined randomly.
+ + <turn> is either "B" for black or "W" for white.
+
+2010-09-04 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
+
+ * [shogi-server]
+ - shogi_server/{board,command,game,league,player}.rb
+ The Buoy behavior is changed.
+ + Starting a buoy game, players are notified a starting game
+ position with the initial position and moves, instead of a
+ targeting position.
+ + Players are allowed to start buoy games with specific turns.
+ ex. %%GAME buoy_foo-1500-0 +
+
+2010-08-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>

+ earlier than system time.
+ - shogi_server/league/floodgate_thread.rb: SetupFloodgate#start
+ now returns an instance correctly.
+ - ../shogi_server.rb, ../shogi_server/util.rb: Refactored
+ mkdir_for to Mkdir.mkdir_for.
+ - ../shogi_server/game.rb: mkdir_p will be performed in a global
+ mutex of ShogiServer::Mkdir.
+
+2010-07-25 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
+
+ * [shogi-server]
+ - shogi_server/command.rb:
+ + For an unknown error command log, an empty line is no longer logged.
+ + Commands specific to 81Dojo, starting with '%%%', are just
+ ignored instead of unknown command errors.
+ - shogi_server.rb:
+ + Refactoring. Added test/TC_logger.rb to test
+ ShogiServer::Logger class.
+ + Fixed race condition: creating a new directory to archive
+ logs may have caused race condition, which ended up with
+ making the server unavailable. This issue has been fixed.
+ - shogi-server:
+ + Improved fault tolerance of the server.
+
+2010-07-23 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
+
+ * [shogi-server]

+
+ * [shogi-server]
+ - shogi_server.rb, shogi_server/board.rb, shogi_server/move.rb
+ - Refactoring: Board can now move_to() and move_back() a move
+ instead of deep_copy().
+
+2010-07-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
+
+ * [shogi-server]
+ - shogi_server/player.rb: Set initial values to BasicPlayer's
+ instance variables.
+ - shogi_server/league.rb: Improved performance of
+ Persistant#get_players. It took about 20 seconds for a large
+ size of players (5,300 lines in players.yaml). Now it completes in an
+ instance.
+
+2010-06-22 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
+
+ * [shogi-server]
+ - A new command line option:
+ --floodgate-names GameStringA[,GameStringB[,...]]
+ where a game string should be a valid game name such as
+ floodgate-900-0.
+ .
+ Note: Without this option, no floodgate games are started. If
+ you want floodgate-900-0 to run, which was default enabled in
+ previous versions, you need to specify the game name in this new
+ option.
+ - Floodgate time configuration file:
+ You need to set starting times of floodgate groups in
+ configuration files under the top directory. Each floodgate
+ group requires a corresponding configuration file named
+ "<game_name>.conf". The file will be re-read once just after a
+ game starts.
+ .
+ For example, a floodgate-3600-30 game group requires
+ floodgate-3600-30.conf. However, for floodgate-900-0 and
+ floodgate-3600-0, which were default enabled in previous
+ versions, configuration files are optional if you are happy with
+ default time settings.
+ File format is:
+ Line format:
+ # This is a comment line
+ DoW Time
+ ...
+ where
+ DoW := "Sun" | "Mon" | "Tue" | "Wed" | "Thu" | "Fri" | "Sat" |
+ "Sunday" | "Monday" | "Tuesday" | "Wednesday" | "Thursday" |
+ "Friday" | "Saturday"
+ Time := HH:MM
+
+ For example,
+ Sat 13:00
+ Sat 22:00
+ Sun 13:00

+ * [shogi-server]
+ - shogi_server/command.rb: Fixed an issue that MONITOR2OFF did not
+ work. Thanks to HIDECHI and koudayu.
+
+2010-05-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
+
+ * [shogi-server]
+ - test/*.rb: Improved performance and stability of tests
+ - shogi_server/player.rb: Help the write_thread to terminate
+
+2010-05-06 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
+
+ * [mk_rate]
+ - Previously mk_rate did not count in draw games. Now a draw game
+ is considered to weight 0.5 win and 0.5 loss. Respect
+ Inaniwa-shogi which strategically aims to draw.
+ - a new command line option, --skip-draw-games. In this mode, draw
+ games are just ignored as mk_rate previously did.
+
+2010-04-25 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
+
+ * [shogi-server]
+ - shogi_server/player.rb:
+ Log a warning message in a case that a player closes a
+ connection suddenly.
+
+2010-04-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
+
+ * [shogi-server]
+ - shogi_server/command.rb:
+ Equality of MonitorHandler class was wrong. %%MONITOROFF and
+ %%MONITOR2OFF may cause unexpected behavior. This issue has been
+ fixed. Thanks to Kota Fujiwara for reporting.
+
+2010-03-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
+
+ * [shogi-server]
+ - If two sequential moves from a player are identical, the last
+ one will be ignored and a game is in play. This situation might
+ happen with human players, especially on slow network,
+ impatiently sending a move twice.
+
+2010-02-27 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
+
+ * [shogi-server]
+ - The server now provides more accurate time control. Previously,
+ a player's thinking time included a time waiting to get the giant
+ lock. This may have caused games to time up, especially, during
+ byo-yomi etc.
+
+2010-01-22 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
+
+ * [shogi-server]
+ - Experimental feature: support handicapped games.
+ Game names that have the following prefixes are recognized as
+ handicapped games. Turn symbols "+" and "-" mean Uwate (expert)
+ and Shitate (beginner) respectively (i.e. Uwate players first).
+ "*" is not available.
+ - hclance_
+ - hcbishop_
+ - hcrook_
+ - hcrooklance_
+ - hc2p_
+ - hc4p_
+ - hc6p_
+ - hc10p_
+
+2010-01-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
+
+ * [shogi-server]
+ - shogi_server/command.rb, test/TC_command.rb
+ Proposal implementation of a new command called MONITOR2{ON,OFF}.
+ When the MONITOR2ON command is issued by a player, the server
+ immediately sends the player the entire contents of a record
+ file of the game, i.e. history of moves and so on, at that time.
+ Then, the server will forward subsequent moves like they are
+ appended to the record file.
+ - Behavior changed: A player monitoring a game with MONITORON will
+ not receive Game#show again when a gaming player resigns (:toryo).
+
+2010-01-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
+
+ * Converted the repository from Subversion to Git.
+
+2009-12-26 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
+
+ * [shogi-server]
+ - The server can now provide multiple floodgate modes such as
+ floodgate-900-0 and floodgate-3600-0.
+
+2009-12-25 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
+
+ * [shogi-server]
+ - shogi-server: The command line option --floodgate-history has
+ been deprecated. The server will decide history file names such
+ as 'floodgate_history_900_0.yaml' and
+ 'floodgate_history_3600_0.yaml', and then put them in the top
+ directory.
+
+2009-12-20 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
+
+ * [shogi-server]
+ - shogi_server/player.rb: Added new methods: is_human? and
+ is_computer?.
+ A human player is recommended to use a name ending with '_human'.
+ ex. 'hoge_human', 'hoge_human@p1'
+ - shogi_server/pairing.rb: Added a new class:
+ StartGameWithoutHumans, which tries to make pairs trying to
+ avoid a human-human match. This is now enabled instead of the
+ previous class: StartGame.
+ - shogi-server, shogi_server/league/floodgate.rb:
+ Changed the argument of Floodgate.new.
+
+2009-12-04 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
+
+ * [shogi-server]
+ - The HUP signal is not supported by Ruby on Windows.
+
+2009-11-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
+
+ * [mk_rate]
+ - Added a new command line option: --base-date. You can specify a
+ base date to calculate rating scores. Games in the `future' are
+ ignored for the calculation.
+
+2009-11-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
+
+ * [shogi-server]
+ - The server logs a result of each game to a file named '00LIST',
+ which will be used to generate players.yaml. If the file does
+ not exist, the server will create one automatically.
+ Instruction to use the game result list file:
+ 1. Make a list of game results from existing CSA files with
+ mk_game_results
+ % ./mk_game_results dir_of_csa_files > 00LIST
+ 2. Run the server. It appends a result of each game to
+ '00LIST' when the game finishes.
+ 3. From the list of game results, calculate rating scores of
+ players.
+ % ./mk_rate 00LIST > players.yaml
+
+2009-11-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
+
+ * [mk_rate]
+ - Split a pre-process collecting game results from csa files into
+ a new command, mk_game_results. Now, Generating players.yaml
+ requires two steps as follows:
+ % ./mk_game_results dir_of_csa_files > 00LIST
+ % ./mk_rate 00LIST > players.yaml
+ or
+ % ./mk_game_results dir_of_csa_files | ./mk_rate > players.yaml
+ (Closes: #19454)
+
+2009-08-06 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
+
+ * [shogi-server]
+ - A experimental new feature, codenamed Buoy: it allows players to
+ play a game starting with a specified position. First, a player
+ sets a buoy game with moves to a specific position. Then, two
+ players can play a new game with the game name.
+ New commands:
+ + %%SETBUOY <game_name> <moves> [count]
+ Set a new buoy game.
+ ex. %%SETBUOY buoy_foo-900-0 +7776FU 10
+ ex. %%SETBUOY buoy_foo-1500-0 +7776FU-3334FU
+ - game_name is a valid game name with a prefix "buoy_".
+ ex. buoy_foo-900-0
+ - moves are initial moves from the Hirate position to a
+ specific position that you want to start with.
+ ex. +7776FU-3334FU+8786FU
+ - count is an optional attribute to tell how many times the
+ game can be played (default 1). The count is decremented
+ when the game finishes. If the count reaches zero, the buoy
+ game is removed automatically by the server.
+ ex. 10
+ + %%DELETEBUOY <game_name>
+ Delete a buoy game. The only owner who set up the game is
+ allowed to delete it.
+ ex. %%DELETEBUOY buoy_foo-900-0
+ - game_name is the buoy game name that was created.
+ + %%GETBUOYCOUNT <game_name>
+ Show a current count of the buoy game or -1 for non-existing
+ games.

+
+ * [shogi-server]
+ - shogi_server/command.rb: refactored commands out of player.rb.
+
+2009-06-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
+
+ * [shogi-server]
+ - An empty floodgate_history.yaml caused a server error. This
+ issue has been fixed.
+ (Closes: #15124)
+
+2009-06-17 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
+
+ * [shogi-server]
+ - If a new game matched between two players is not started within
+ a certain time (default 120 seconds) (i.e. the agree_waiting or
+ start_waiting state lasts too long), the Server REJECTs the game.
+ (Closes: #14425)
+
+2009-06-15 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
+
+ * [shogi-server]
+ - When a Gote player AGREEd a new game and then a Sente player
+ logged out (LOGOUT), the Gote incorrectly received a LOGOUT message
+ from the server. Since Gote's state was not AGREEd or STARTed yet,
+ the Gote should be REJECTed. This issue has been fixed.
+ (Closes: #17335)
+
+2009-06-14 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
+
+ * [shogi-server]
+ - The Board could not recognize a certain pattern of
+ Oute-Sennichite. This issue has been fixed.
+ (Closes: #13966)
+
+2009-03-22 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
+
+ * [utils/correct-bug14635.rb]
+ - Added a new file. This program corrects illegal lines introduced
+ by the #14635 bug.
+
+2009-03-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
+
+ * [csa-file-filter]
+ - Improved performance.
+
+2009-02-15 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
+
+ * [shogi-server]
+ - A duplicated comment that is the one of the previous (or older)
+ move might be erroneously recorded in a csa file. This issue has
+ been fixed. (Closes: #15080)
+
+2009-02-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
+
+ * [utils/csa-filter.rb]
+ - Added a new file. This program filters CSA files.
+
+2009-02-01 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
+
+ * [shogi-server]
+ - The shogi-server records csa files of games in an illegal
+ format. This issue has been fixed. (Closes: #14635)
+ - A ##[MONITOR] command for showing a game result such as %TORYO
+ was not correct. This issue has been fixed.
+
+2009-01-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
+
+ * [shogi-server]
+ - It failed to proccess a game result, OuteKaihiMoreWin where a
+ checked king does not escape. This issue has been fixed.
+
+2009-01-02 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
+
+ * [shogi-server]
+ - shogi_server/timeout_queue.rb: the timeout parameter of the
+ constructor was not respected erroneously. This issue
+ has been fixed.
+ - shogi_server/players.rb: When a player was finishing with its
+ write socket broken, there was a chance that the thread of the
+ player in the giant lock had to wait for a long time (about 20
+ seconds), which might cause threads of other players stop and
+ time out. (Closes: #14469)
+
+2008-12-30 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
+
+ * [mk_html]
+ - Added a new option: --footer filename, which inserts contents of
+ the filename at the bottom of a generated page. A text specific to
+ wdoor should be written by using this option.
+ (Closes: #14470)
+ - It does no more depend on RDoc. RDoc::usage does not work well
+ (due to RDoc).
+
+2008-12-28 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
+
+ * [mk_rate]
+ - Check kifu files more carefully so that files that contain
+ incomplete records are skipped.
+ - mk_rate might have failed to alloc due to out of memory. Now it
+ consumes less memory (about 200MB instead of 2GB).
+ - File names can be put into STDIN instead of specifying directory
+ names in command line arguments.
+ * [csa-file-filter]
+ - New file. It filters kifu files and is of use for a pre-filter
+ of mk_rate.
+
+2008-12-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
+
+ * [shogi-server]
+ - Improved an existance check and etc. of directories specified
+ by command line options, especially in case of the daemon mode.
+ (Closes: #14244)
+ - A rotated log file is moved to $topdir/YYYY/MM/DD.
+ (Closes: #14245)
+
+2008-11-27 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
+
+ * [shogi-server]
+ - Added sample/*.sh for command line samples.
+
+2008-11-24 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
+
+ * [shogi-server]
+ - Added a new option --floodgate-history, which allows users to
+ specify a file name that stores the records of games. The
+ records are taken care of when games are matched.
+
+2008-10-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
+
+ * [utils/eval_graph.rb]
+ - Display time control graphs as well.
+ Thanks to Nishimura-san for this idea.
+ (Closes: #13678)
+
+2008-10-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
+
+ * [shogi-server]
+ - Ruby 1.8.7 (or later) must be used. Ruby 1.8.6 is not supported.
+ - Daemon mode is available.
+ - shogi_server/piece_ky.rb is again merged with
+ shogi_server/piece.rb, then has been removed.
