CHANGES.txt for the JTracker

  This file contains change information for the JTracker product.

    1.11

      Features added:

        - Changed the license used for this product to the new 
          ZPL 2.1 which is also used for all future Zope releases.

      Bugs fixed:

        - Adapt to the fact that PropertyManagers store sequences
          as tuples and not lists anymore (JTracker issue 377 by
          Ulrich Goertz).


    1.10

      Bugs fixed:

        - New issues only triggered email notifications to the 
          JTracker admin, but not to those accounts defined as 
          supporters on the "Advanced" tab. Thanks go to Phil
          Schumm for pointing out this (mis)behavior.

        - Added Zope 2.7.x as "tested platform" in the README.

        - Noted potential pitfalls with the "mailhost" path in the
          JTracker in the face of virtual hosting in the README.


    1.9

      Features added:

        - Show a little more information on the reply form.

      Bugs fixed:

        - Zope 2.7 does not like tal:content on singleton tags, so
          the reply form blew up (pointed out by Eugene Morozov in
          issue 321).


    1.8

      Features added:

        - The list of items that can be added to a JTracker from the
          ZMI is now mor intelligent. It will allow adding a ZCatalog
          if there is no object named 'catalog' contained in it and
          it will allow adding a Mail Host (and Maildrop Host if the
          product is installed) if no object named 'MailHost' is
          in the JTracker (Tracker issue 243).

      Bugs fixed:

        - Eliminated all cases where a mutable type was used as the
          default value in a function's argument list. This should
          fix the mysterious subscriber multiplication (Tracker issue
          241)

        - Worked around a IE/Windoze dumbness where file uploads 
          would end up with a file name equal to the full path of the
          uploaded file on the uploader's system. Normal browsers 
          provide a correct file name. (Tracker issue 238 posted by
          Jim Harrison)


    1.7

      Features added:

        - Searches can be re-executed from an issue view page. Once
          a custom search has been run the search terms are saved 
          using the built-in sessioning in Zope and can be re-called
          from an issue view. This follows the typical use case of
          going through several issues that were found via a search.
          (Tracker issue 223 by myself)

        - Added id attributes to several places like tracker title 
          and issue title displays to enable some style customizations
          (tracker issue 217 by Dave Lehman).

        - The JTracker administrator's full name is now editable. This
          change requires that the updater script be run before or after
          applying the new software. (Tracker issue 218 by Dave Lehman)

      Bugs fixed:

        - Worked over the way subscriber addresses are handled to try
          and pin down the mysterious addition of subscribers (Tracker
          issue 230, added by myself).


    1.6

      Bugs fixed:

        * A missed wrong indentation in the email processing code
          led to replies to issues that would also create brand new
          issues at the same time.

        * A missing import would prevent an error message to be sent
          to the JTracker administrator if there was an error 
          sending email during normal operation of the JTracker.
          (Tracker issue 213, thanks go to Eugene Morozow)

        * Completed the "hookup" of account settings to all those
          forms where names or emails are needed. If the currently
          logged-in user has an account (see "Advanced" tab in the
          ZMI) then these values will be pre-filled with the correct
          email address and full name. (Tracker issue 212, thanks to
          Alan Milligan for reminding me that this piece was not filled
          in completely)

      Features added:

        * The addIssue method can now be scripted better because 
          it does not require REQUEST to be passed in anymore 
          (Tracker issue 211 by Alan Milligan).


    1.5

      Features added:

        * Better error handling for the mail handler: If something
          goes awry during message reception a error report is sent 
          to the email address set as the admin email. Furthermore,
          there is now some tests to see if an incoming message is
          just a bounce message so that infinite mail loops are 
          avoided. Removed all such tests from the email accepter
          standalone script to simplify it.

      Bugs fixed:

        * An incoming message subject line is now always mime-decoded
          so that it does not show up with garbage mime code. (Tracker
          issue 205, thanks go to Alan Milligan)


    1.4

      Features added:

        * A property on the Properties tab (accept_email) lets the 
          administrator turn the email processing for emails put into
          the JTracker viw the receiveEmail method on or off.

      Bugs fixed:

        * A permissions problem crept into version 1.3 that had to do
          with the (very unintuitive) way permissions are initialized
          on base classes. The problem would have the "Support 
          JTracker Issues" permission disappear and only allow true
          Manager users do issue support work.

        * Added a (really lame) attempt to detect if an incoming email
          message is actually a bounce from dumb mail servers that do
          not complain about non-existing recipients but accept mail
          like everything is alright and then send a separate bounce
          message (to the JTracker address) later. As to be expected, 
          this weird and unintuitive behavior only shows up on Micro$haft
          wannabe-email servers so far ("Exchange").


    1.3

      Features added:

        * Email subscriber handling has been simplified. Now the 
          JTracker admin and the issue poster are just entries in the 
          issue subscriber list, which also means they can be
          removed from it if so desired.

        * The issue numbering scheme has been changed to pad the issue
          number with zeros. This scheme allows getting rid of the
          issue_number method/index kludge that was put in to allow 
          correct sorting in the views.

        * If the BTreeFolder2 package is installed it will be used
          for all newly instantiated JTrackers. A script is provided
          that allows upgrading existing JTracker instances to use
          the BTreeFolder2-based version. See README.txt for details
          on how to upgrade. Installing the BTreeFolder2 product
          and upgrading your JTracker to use it is the recommended
          configuration.

        * An updater script is included that allows reasonably safe
          updates in place so that the user can install the latest
          software release, run the updater and the existing JTracker
          instances will be updated to work with the new code if they
          need updating. See README.txt for how to use the updater 
          script.

        * Add support for uploading files. The upload capability
          can be switched on and off by the administrator and a 
          specific kilobyte limit for allowable file sizes can be
          set. A single file can be uploaded per issue entry. The
          administrator user can add or delete these files from the
          Zope Management Interface, regardless of filesize limit
          settings on the JTracker. This feature introduced in response 
          to Tracker issue 196 by Jim Harrison.

      Bugs fixed:

        * Issue descriptions and issue reply bodies were not HTML-encoded
          in the JTracker Issue view. This is a security risk that can
          allow someone to insert malicious HTML or client-side scripting
          into an issue or a followup. All these text fields are quoted
          now. Thanks to Artur Zaprzala for the heads-up on this.


    1.2

      Features added:

        * The Mail Host to be used for mail handling can now be
          selected upon instantiation and changed in the JTracker
          properties view.

        * You can now talk to the JTracker using email. How to set
          it up and what it is that you can do via email is explained
          in the README.


    1.1

      Bugs fixed:

        * Replies could get a wrong date attached to them because
          of the way default arguments were handled

      Features added:

        * Overriding manage_editProperties so that editing an issue 
          on its Property tab will now recatalog as well. This 
          allowed me to remove the "Advanced" tab in the ZMI.

        * Replies can now be deleted or their text body edited via
          the ZMI.

        * the view form for issues had a couple convenience links 
          added, one of them to the issue itself and another one,
          if the current user has the permission to manage this 
          JTracker, that links directly to the ZMI.


    1.0

      Bugs fixed:

        * Text searches now find text in replies as well, whereas it used
          to be limited for the issue title and description before.

        * Better issue sorting in search results views with the help of 
          another catalog index and a helper variable.

      Features added:

        * JTracker issue searches can now be bookmarked because it will
          show the full search criteria in the URL query string.
