     1 MoinMoin Version History
     2 ========================
     3 
     4 Please note: Starting from the MoinMoin version you used previously, you
     5 should read all more recent entries (or at least everything marked with HINT).
     6 
     7 This release has known bugs (see MoinMoin:MoinMoinBugs), but we think it is
     8 already better than the previous stable release. Our release policy is not
     9 trying to make a "perfect release" (as that release might NEVER get released),
    10 but to make progress and don't delay releases too much.
    11 
    12 Known main issues:
    13 
    14   * The GUI WYSIWYG editor has still some issues and limitations.
    15     If you can't live with those, you can simply switch it off by using:
    16     editor_force = True
    17     editor_default = 'text'  # internal default, just for completeness
    18 
    19 
    20 Version 1.8.8:
    21   Fixes:
    22     * Fixed XSS issues (see MoinMoinBugs/1.9.2UnescapedInputForThemeAddMsg).
    23     * Fixed XSS in Despam action (CVE-2010-0828).
    24     * wikiutil.clean_input: avoid crash if it gets str type
    25     * Add RenderAsDocbook to actions_excluded if we have no python-xml
    26     * AttachFile._build_filelist: verifies readonly flag for unzip file link
    27     * attachUrl: fix wrongly generated tickets (e.g. for AttachList macro)
    28     * MoinMoin.util.filesys.dc* (dircache can't work reliably):
    29       * disable usage of dircache, deprecate dc* functions
    30       * remove all calls to filesys.dc* (dclistdir, dcdisable)
    31     * Fixed crash, see MoinMoinPatch/IncludeMacroWithDocBookFormatter
    32     * Avoid hardly recoverable crashes if #format specification is invalid
    33     * Fixed info action: AttachFile sub-actions that needed a ticket did not
    34       work (e.g. do=del).
    35 
    36   New features:
    37     * auth.ldap_login: add report_invalid_credentials param to control wrong
    38       credentials error message (typically used when using multiple ldap
    39       authenticators)
    40 
    41 
    42 Version 1.8.7:
    43   Fixes:
    44   * Fixed major security issues in miscellaneous parts of moin.
    45     HINT: if you have removed superuser configuration to workaround the issue
    46     (following our security advisory), you may re-add it after installing this
    47     moin release. If you don't need superuser capabilities often, it might be
    48     wise to not have superusers configured all the time, though.
    49   * Improved package security: cfg.packagepages_actions_excluded excludes
    50     unsafe or otherwise questionable package actions by default now.
    51   * wiki parser: fixed transclusion of (e.g. video) attachments from other
    52     pages.
    53   * Fixed edit locking for non-logged in editors and cfg.log_remote_addr=False.
    54   * xmlrpc:
    55     * Process attachname in get/putAttachment similarly.
    56     * revertPage: convert pagename to internal representation.
    57   * Fixed config.umask usage for page packages.
    58   * Fixed usage of i18n.wikiLanguages() on class level (moved to method),
    59     failed when tools import the module (e.g. pydoc -k foo).
    60   * SubProcess: fixed win32-specific parts, fixed imports (fixes calling of
    61     external xapian index filters)
    62 
    63 
    64 Version 1.8.6:
    65   Bug fixes:
    66   * Xapian indexing / indexing filters:
    67     * fix deadlocks with well- and misbehaving external filters
    68     * work around indexing run crashing when encountering encoding problems
    69       with non-ascii filenames
    70     * OpenOffice/OpenDocument filters: catch UnicodeDecodeErrors (happens
    71       with password protected files)
    72   * i18n: check if languages is not initialized yet, don't crash
    73   * http_redirect: use 301 redirect for some cases
    74   * do not use httponly session cookies, makes trouble with twikidraw and ACLs
    75   * GetText2 macro: fix for named placeholder
    76   * Fix SHA -> SSHA password hash upgrade for old user profiles.
    77   * abort RenamePage if renaming of main page fails (do not try to rename
    78     subpages)
    79 
    80   New features:
    81   * search: improve search result ordering
    82   * add MS Powerpoint indexing filter (needs catppt from catdoc package)
    83   * migration scripts: make finding damaged edit-log entries easier
    84   * SubscribeUser action: support username regexes and unsubscribing.
    85     Usage (enter this into the input form field you get after invoking
    86     SubscribeUser action from the "More Actions" menu:
    87     [+|-][re:]username[,username,...] 
    88 
    89     +username: subscribes user <username> (+ is optional/default)
    90     -username: unsubscribes user <username>
    91     +re:username_re: subscribes users who match <username_re> regex.
    92     -re:username_re: unsubscribes users who match <username_re> regex.
    93 
    94

    97     * Attachment links: fix processing of attributes (e.g. 'target', 'title')
    98     * Upgrade FCKeditor from 2.6.4 to 2.6.4.1.
    99     * PDF embedding: fix html, works better with PDF browser plugins now.
   100     * Fix typo in rightsidebar CSS.
   101     * Action revert: avoids reverting to a deleted current revision.

   104     * Include comment in email notifies.
   105     * mailimport: fix endless looping while trying to import a forwarded mail.
   106     * fuid: keep same fake_mtime for intervals of max_staleness duration.

   114     * Added CAS authentication.
   115     * Added httponly cookie support and use it for session cookie.
   116 
   117   Other changes:

   126 
   127 
   128 Version 1.8.4:
   129   Bug fixes:
   130     * ACL security: fix bug in hierarchical ACL processing, more restrictive
   131       sub page ACLs did not work if the current user name did not give a match
   132       within the sub page ACL (instead, the less restrictive parent page ACL
   133       was used).
   134       Non-hierarchical ACL processing (the default) is NOT affected.
   135     * Creole parser: fix spaces in multiline elements.
   136     * Use msie.css only for Internet Explorer older than version 8, fixes
   137       e.g. the double rendering of link icons.
   138     * http auth: do auth_type comparisons case-insensitively (spec-compliant)
   139 
   140   New features:
   141     * EmbedObject macro: changed default width value for PDF files to 100%
   142                          (use a recent Adobe Reader to make this work).
   143     * CopyPage action: added a TextCha for it
   144 
   145   Other changes:    
   146     * Creole parser: Add second license: BSD
   147 
   148 Version 1.8.3:
   149   Bug fixes:
   150     * AttachFile XSS fixes: move escaping to error_msg / upload_form
   151     * AttachFile move: add more escaping (maybe not XSS exploitable though)
   152     * email attachments import with xapian indexing enabled: fix AttributeError
   153     * fix wrong links in attachment notifications
   154     * AttachFile do=view: quote filename and pagename params for EmbedObject
   155       macro call
   156     * AttachFile: fix exception when someone just clicks on upload, without
   157       giving a file
   158     * ldap_login: use None as default value for ssl certs/keys (using '' for
   159       the pathes lets it fail with Connect Error)
   160     * release edit lock if someone saves an unchanged page
   161     * fix sendmail.encodeAddress (do not [QP] encode blanks, do not un-
   162       necessarily use [QP] encoding for pure ascii mail addresses)
   163     * Fixed docs bug: see HINT about secrets configuration at version 1.8.0
   164       (1.8.0 Other changes).
   165     * backup action: add 'self' dummy argument for backup_exclude function
   166     * login action: fix formatting of error messages
   167     * unsubscribe action: add msg types so icons get displayed
   168     * fix quoting for pagehits stats (info action) - was not working for pagenames with blanks
   169     * macro.TableOfContents: bug fix for MoinMoinBugs/TableOfContentsIgnoresSectionNumbersPragma
   170 
   171   New features:
   172     * added modernized_cms theme
   173     * use url_prefix_fckeditor if you don't want to use the builtin FCKeditor
   174       of moin, but a separate one at some specific url
   175     * action.Load: added textcha feature
   176     * add mumble protocol (nice and good quality F/OSS VOIP conference chat sw)
   177     * ldap auth: new name_callback param to create a custom wiki username (not
   178       the ldap login username).
   179 
   180   Other changes:
   181     * add compatibility code for set to xapwrap.index (fix py 2.6 warnings)
   182     * wikiutil: MIMETYPES_MORE extended for .md5 as text/plain
   183 
   184 
   185 Version 1.8.2:
   186   Bug fixes:
   187     * Fix AttachFile and antispam XSS issues.
   188     * Modernized, modern and rightsidebar themes: make nonexistent or
   189       badinterwiki links gray also when they are already visited.
   190     * Fix anchor parsing for interwiki links and #redirect processing
   191       instruction.
   192     * user.apply_recovery_token: key must be of type string (for Python 2.6).
   193     * Fix MoinMoinBugs/GuiEditorBreaksIndentedTable.
   194     * Fix autofilter javascript breakage caused by including a databrowser
   195       widget.
   196     * Use per-wiki i18n cache (fixes wrong links to other farm wikis).
   197     * Made cfg.interwikiname and cfg.user_homewiki unicode objects (str only
   198       worked for ascii names).
   199     * Xapian search: fixed historysearch.
   200     * Xapian search indexing:
   201       * Fix index updating for trivial changes.
   202       * With history search enabled and in update mode, do not try to re-index
   203         old page revisions again.
   204       * With history search enabled, index page attachments only once.
   205       * Fix last modified time of xapian index (shown on SystemInfo page).
   206     * Make logging handlers defined in logging.handlers work (e.g.
   207       class=handlers.RotatingFileHandler)
   208     * Jabber notifications:
   209       * Use an RFC compliant message type.
   210       * Fix user creation notifications.
   211     * OpenID: Compatibility fix for python-openid 2.x.x (also works with
   212       1.x.x), fixes crash when trying to associate moin user to OpenID.
   213     * Have a wikiserverconfig.py in wiki/server/ so setup.py copies it.
   214     * Fixed inconsistent handling of fragments / anchor IDs:
   215       * Fixed creole and wiki parser, other parsers might need similar fixes.
   216       * IDs with blanks, non-ASCII chars etc. are now sanitized in the same way
   217         for links as well as for link targets, so the user editing a page won't
   218         have to bother with it.
   219         E.g. [[#123 foo bar]] will link to:
   220         * <<Anchor(123 foo bar)>> (moin) or {{#123 foo bar}} (creole)
   221         * headline = 123 foo bar = (moin / creole)
   222         Simple rule: if the link and the target are consistent, it should work.
   223       * The creole wiki parser created non-human-readable sha1 heading IDs
   224         before 1.8.2, now it creates same (sometimes readable) heading IDs as
   225         the moin wiki parser.
   226       * TitleIndex/WordIndex now also use IDs sanitized in that way internally.
   227       HINT: if you manually worked around the inconsistencies/bugs before, you
   228             likely have to remove those workarounds now. Same thing if you used
   229             creole's sha1 heading IDs or IDs on TitleIndex/WordIndex.
   230 
   231   Other changes:
   232     * Updated FCKeditor to 2.6.4 (== many bug fixes in the GUI editor).
   233     * Enhanced privacy by a new setting: cfg.log_remote_addr (default: True),
   234       it controls whether moin logs the remote's IP/hostname to edit-log and
   235       event-log. Use log_remote_addr = False to enhance privacy.
   236     * Streamline attachment_drawing formatter behaviour.
   237     * Search results: only redirect to a single search result for titlesearch
   238       (fuzzy goto functionality), but not for fulltext search results.
   239 
   240 
   241 Version 1.8.1:
   242   Bug fixes:
   243     * Workaround win32 locking problems (caused by spurious access denied
   244       exceptions on that platform).
   245     * Fix unicode errors that happened when password checker failed a password
   246     * WikiConfig/WikiConfigHelp: fixed wrong language table headings
   247     * Themes: make the margins around trail line work properly
   248     * "modernized" theme:
   249       * make broken links gray
   250       * add new right/center/left/justify css classes
   251       * don't force Arial
   252     * Standalone server: be more specific when catching socket exceptions,
   253       treat socket errors in http header emission in the same way.
   254     * GUI editor:
   255       * Fix heading levels when inserting new headings.
   256       * Fix headers already sent exception when using e.g. edit LOCKing.
   257     * Xapian indexing: fixed missing import for execfilter (only happened on
   258       non-posix platforms like win32)
   259 
   260   * New features:
   261     * Themes:
   262      * Make the TOC shrinkwrap, add white background to navigation macro.
   263        The table of contents looked bad spanning the whole width of the page.
   264        It's made to shrinkwrap now, so it will only get as wide, as the longest
   265        heading. We use display:inline-table, so this won't work in MS IE6,
   266        which still displays it the old way.
   267        Navigation macro now has a white background, to make it more readable
   268        when it's floating over a pre block or TOC.
   269      * Make the numbers in lists in table of contents right-aligned.
   270      * Refactored and extended theme.html_stylesheets() to make alternate
   271        stylesheets possible. Stylesheet definitions now can either be:
   272        2-tuples: (media, href)  # backwards compatibility
   273        or:
   274        3-tuples: (media, href, title)  # new, for defining alternate stylesheets
   275        This works within themes as well as in the wiki config.
   276        See also: http://www.w3.org/Style/Examples/007/alternatives.html
   277 
   278 
   279 Version 1.8.0:
   280   Note: This is a reduced CHANGES, ommitting details from rc/beta test and
   281         also less interesting minor changes and fixes. It shows changes
   282         relative to 1.7.2 release.
   283         If you want to see full detail, read it there:
   284         http://hg.moinmo.in/moin/1.8/file/6130eab15936/docs/CHANGES
   285 
   286   New Features: ==============================================================
   287     * HINT: New "modernized" theme - if you use "modern" [default], try:
   288       theme_default = 'modernized'
   289       If you find problems with "modernized", please report them because we
   290       want to use it as default theme in future.
   291     * GUI Editor:
   292       * upgraded to use FCKEditor version 2.6.3
   293       * user can insert and modify various types of MoinMoin links
   294     * New plugin_dirs setting to allow multiple plugin pathes (additional to
   295       the automatically configured plugin_dir [default: data_dir/plugin]).
   296     * @EMAIL@ expands to a MailTo macro call with the obfuscated email address
   297       of the current user.
   298     * New macros "WikiConfig" and "WikiConfigHelp".
   299     * Per-parser quickhelp, 'quickhelp' class variable of parser class.
   300     * Secure session cookies for https (see cfg.cookie_secure).
   301     * Added left/center/right/justify css classes to builtin themes.
   302       Use them like:
   303       {{{#!wiki justify
   304       this content is justified....
   305       }}}
   306 
   307   Removed Features: ==========================================================
   308     * HINT: url_prefix setting (use url_prefix_static or just use the default)
   309     * traceback_log_dir setting (we just use logging.exception)
   310     * editor_quickhelp setting (replaced by per-parser quickhelp)
   311     * Restoring backups with the backup action and related settings (while
   312       creating backups is no big issue and should work OK, restoring them
   313       had fundamental issues related to overwriting or not-overwriting of
   314       existing files - thus we removed the "restore" part of the action and
   315       recommend that you just contact the wiki server admin in case of trouble,
   316       give him your wiki backup file and let him carefully restore it.)
   317     * Removed unmaintained DesktopEdition (moin 1.5.x style) and phpwiki
   318       migration scripts from contrib/ directory.
   319 
   320   Bug Fixes: =================================================================
   321     * GUI Editor - fixed lots of bugs.
   322     * Fixing https detection for servers using HTTPS=1 and also for WSGI
   323       servers not using HTTPS/SSL_ environment, but just wsgi.url_scheme.
   324     * Search results: link to 'view' rendering of found attachments.
   325     * Standalone server: fix serverClass and interface argument processing,
   326       announce used serverClass in log output.
   327     * mointwisted: fixed Twisted start script.
   328     * Logging:
   329       * Use logging framework for messages emitted by warnings module (e.g.
   330         DeprecationWarning), silence some specific warnings.
   331       * Removed superfluous linefeeds in timing log output.
   332     * Bug fix for language not installed (MoinMoinBugs/WikiLanguageNotDefined).
   333     * Fixed editbar hidden comment link cosmetics for sidebar themes (hide the
   334       complete list element).
   335     * MoinMoinBugs/DoubleScriptNameInSitemap (fixing urls given by sitemap
   336       action, if the wiki does not run in the root url of the site)
   337     * Fixed backup action configuration (broke on win32).
   338     * Fixed MoinMoinBugs/PackagesAddRevision.
   339     * SyncPages: add workaround for callers calling log_status with encoded
   340       bytestrings.
   341     * Fixed dbw_hide_buttons javascript.
   342     * HINT: Jabber bot can now be configured to use an authentication realm
   343       which is different from the server's hostname; the xmpp_node
   344       configuration parameter can now contain a full JID and the xmpp_resource
   345       parameter is no longer supported.
   346 
   347   Other Changes: =============================================================
   348     * HINT: new configuration for misc. secrets, please use either:
   349           secrets = "MySecretLooongString!" # one secret for everything
   350       or:
   351           secrets = {
   352               'xmlrpc/ProcessMail': 'yourmailsecret', # for mailimport
   353               'xmlrpc/RemoteScript': 'yourremotescriptsecret',
   354               'action/cache': 'yourcachesecret', # unguessable cache keys
   355               'wikiutil/tickets': 'yourticketsecret', # edit tickets
   356               'jabberbot': 'yourjabberbotsecret', # jabberbot communication
   357           }
   358       Secret strings must be at least 10 chars long.
   359       Note: mail_import_secret setting is gone, use
   360             secrets["xmlrpc/ProcessMail"] instead of it.
   361       Note: jabberbot secret setting is gone, use
   362             secrets["jabberbot"] instead of it.
   363     * HINT: user_autocreate setting was removed from wiki configuration and
   364       replaced by a autocreate=<boolean> parameter of the auth objects that
   365       support user profile auto creation.
   366     * moin import irclog: use irssi parser to format logs, mapped .irc
   367       extension to text/plain mimetype.
   368     * HINT: backup action: backup_exclude (default: "do not exclude anything")
   369       is now a function f(filename) that tells whether a file should be
   370       excluded from backup.
   371       You can get the old regex exclusion functionality by using:
   372       backup_exclude = re.compile(your_regex).search
   373       Be careful with your regex, you might need to use re.escape() to escape
   374       characters that have a special meaning in regexes (e.g.: \.[] etc.).
   375       If in doubt, maybe just leave backup_exclude at the default and don't
   376       exclude anything.
   377     * Speed up javascript comments processing on IE by getElementsByClassName()
   378     * Added sk (slovak) i18n, updated i18n.
   379 
   380 
   381 1.7.3:
   382   New features:
   383     * Secure session cookies for https, see cfg.cookie_secure.
   384     * Add left/center/right/justify classes to builtin themes.
   385 
   386   Fixes:
   387     * Python 2.3 compatibility fixes.
   388     * Fixed https detection for servers using HTTPS=1 and also for wsgi servers
   389       not using HTTPS/SSL_ environment, but just wsgi.url_scheme.
   390     * GUI editor:
   391       * Fix crash when editing a page with non-ASCII pagename and inserting a link
   392       * Fix "headers already sent exception" with edit LOCKs.
   393     * i18n.__init__: Bug fix for wiki language not installed.
   394     * Fixed URLs given by sitemap action, if the wiki does not run at / URL.
   395     * Search results: link to 'view' rendering of found attachments
   396     * Logging:    
   397       * Removed superfluous linefeed in timing log output.
   398       * Use logging framework for messages emitted by warnings module (e.g.
   399         DeprecationWarning), silence some specific warnings.
   400     * Fix dbw_hide_buttons javascript.
   401     * Standalone server:
   402       * fix serverClass argument processing
   403       * fix --interface="" argument processing
   404     * mointwisted:
   405       * added missing pidFile parameter
   406       * better use Config.name for pidFile to avoid conflicts and keep same
   407         behaviour as in the past
   408     * Jabber bot can now be configured to use an authentication realm which
   409       is different from the server's hostname
   410 
   411 
   412 Version 1.7.2:
   413   Fixes:
   414     * Fix leakage of edit-log file handles (leaked 1 file handle / request!).
   415     * Fix for MoinMoinBugs/SystemAdminMailAccountData (using POST and forms)
   416     * Wiki parser: avoid IndexError for empty #! line
   417     * MonthCalendar macro: fix parameter parsing / url generation
   418     * Xapian indexing filters (MoinMoin/filter/ or data/plugin/filter/):
   419       Some indexing filter scripts (e.g. for MS Word documents or PDF files)
   420       failed on windows because of the single-quote quoting we used (that
   421       works on Linux and other Posix systems). The fix introduces platform-
   422       dependant automatic quoting, using double-quotes on win32 and single-
   423       quotes on posix.
   424       HINT: if you use own filter plugins based on execfilter, you have to
   425       update them as the filename quoting (was '%s') is now done automatically
   426       and must not be part of the command string any more (now just use %s).
   427       See MoinMoin/filter/ for some up-to-date code (esp. the PDF filter).
   428     * Prevent CategoryTemplate being listed as a category (it is a Template,
   429       but matched also the category regex) - added to sample wikiconfig.
   430     * LDAP auth: fix processing of TLS options
   431     * UpdateGroup xmlrpc server side: fix wrong arg count error
   432     * UpdateGroup client: use multicall / auth_token, refactor code so that
   433       updateGroup function is reusable.
   434     * Improve Python 2.3 compatibility, add notes where 2.4 is required.
   435 
   436 
   437 Version 1.7.1:
   438   New features:
   439     * New 'cache' action (see developer notes).
   440 
   441   Fixes:
   442     * Security fix: XSS fix for advanced search form
   443     * Avoid creation of new pagedirs with empty edit-log files by just
   444       accessing a non-existant page. If you used 1.7 before, you likely have
   445       quite some trash pagedirs now and you can clean them up by using:
   446       moin --config-dir=... --wiki-url=... maint cleanpage
   447       This will output some shell script (please review it before running!)
   448       that can be used to move trash pages into some trash/ directory and also
   449       moves deleted pages into some deleted/ directory. Maybe keep a copy of
   450       those directories for a while just for the case.
   451     * Server specific fixes:
   452       * standalone (wikiserver.py): fix --pidfile and --group option, fix
   453         operation without a wikiserverconfig.py (use builtin defaults).
   454       * mod_python: work around mod_python 3.3.1 problems with file uploads.
   455         Note: if you are still using mod_python, we strongly recommend you
   456 	      try out mod_wsgi (in daemon mode) - it has less bugs, better
   457 	      security, better separation, WSGI is a Python standard, and moin
   458 	      developers also use WSGI. See HelpOnInstalling/ApacheWithModWSGI.
   459     * revert action: fixed for deleted pages.
   460     * Search:
   461       * Xapian indexing: Removed crappy "hostname" tokenization.
   462         Fixes MoinMoinBugs/1.7 XapianNotWorkingWithLeadingNumbersInTitle.
   463         Also tokenize CamelCase parts of non-wikiwords.
   464       * Make query parser reject more invalid input.
   465       * If query parsing raises a BracketError, at least tell what the problem
   466         is (and not just raise empty  ValueError).
   467       * Category search: ignore traling whitespace after ----
   468     * Argument parser:
   469       * Fixed sort() usage in UnitArgument to be Python 2.3 compatible.
   470       * Fixed MoinMoinBugs/TypeErrorInWikiutils.
   471     * Macros:
   472       * TableOfContents: skip outer-most <ol> levels when page isn't using
   473         the biggest headings
   474       * MonthCalendar: fix MoinMoinBugs/MonthCalendarBreaksOnApostrophe
   475     * xslt parser: fix MoinMoinBugs/DoNotConvertUnicodeToUTF8ForXsltParser
   476     * OpenID RP: make it compatible to python-openid 2.2.x
   477     * PackagePages.collectpackage: removed encoding from file name of zipfile
   478     * Surge protection: exclude localnet no matter whether user is known or not.
   479     * Notifications: fix MoinMoinBugs/DuplicateNewUserNotification
   480     * Script moin account create/disable/resetpw: checks for already existing
   481       user now.
   482 
   483   Other changes:
   484     * Prevent CategoryTemplate being listed as a category (it is a Template)
   485       by changing the default page_category_regex.
   486 
   487   Developer notes:
   488     * New MoinMoin.action.cache - can be used to cache expensively rendered
   489       output, e.g. generated images). Once put into the cache, moin can emit
   490       a http response for that content very fast and very efficient (including
   491       "304 not changed" handling.
   492     * New file-like API in MoinMoin.caching (good for dealing with medium
   493       to large files without consuming lots of memory).
   494     * wikiutil.importPlugin supports getting the whole plugin module object
   495       by giving function=None.
   496 
   497 
   498 Version 1.7.0:
   499   Note: This is a reduced CHANGES, ommitting details from rc/beta test and
   500         also less interesting minor changes and fixes. It shows changes
   501         relative to 1.6.3 release.
   502         If you want to see full detail, read it there:
   503         http://hg.moinmo.in/moin/1.7/file/76265568e8d3/docs/CHANGES
   504 
   505   New Features: ==============================================================
   506     * HINT: we added generic UPDATE instructions as docs/UPDATE.html.
   507 
   508     * HINT: Standalone server usage changed:
   509       * Standalone server can now be started via the "moin" script command,
   510         optionally backgrounding itself.
   511         See: moin server standalone --help
   512       * In the toplevel dir, we have renamed moin.py to wikiserver.py (it was
   513         often confused with the moin scripting command).
   514         Now you have:
   515         * wikiserver.py - to start the standalone server
   516         * wikiserverconfig.py - to configure the standalone server
   517         * wikiserverlogging.conf - to configure logging for it (default config
   518           is ok for all day use, but can easily be modified for debugging)
   519         * wikiconfig.py - to configure the wiki engine
   520       * Removed old moin daemonizing script (replaced by moin server standalone
   521         --start/stop)
   522       * We now provide the "moin" script command also for people not using
   523         setup.py, see wiki/server/moin.
   524 
   525     * Logging
   526       * New powerful and flexible logging, please see wiki/config/logging/ -
   527         HINT: you have to upgrade your server adaptor script (e.g. moin.cgi)
   528         and load a logging configuration that fits your needs from there, or
   529         alternatively you can also set MOINLOGGINGCONF environment variable
   530         to point at your logging config file.
   531         If you use some of our sample logging configs, make sure you have a
   532         look INTO them to fix e.g. the path of the logfile it will use.
   533       * Moin now logs the path from where it loaded its configuration(s).
   534 
   535     * Authentication / Sessions:
   536       * HINT: New authentication plugin system, see HelpOnAuthentication. If
   537         you do not use the builtin default for 'auth' list, you likely have to
   538         change your configuration. See wiki/config/snippets/ for some samples.
   539       * HINT: New session handling system (no moin_session any more, now done
   540         internally and automatically), see HelpOnSessions for details.
   541       * Added OpenID client and server support.
   542         See: HelpOnAuthentication and HelpOnOpenIDProvider.
   543       * cfg.trusted_auth_methods is a list of auth methods that put an
   544         authenticated user into the "Trusted" ACL group.
   545 
   546     * User profiles / password recovery / notification:
   547       * New newacount action for creating new user accounts/profiles. If you
   548         don't want users creating new accounts on their own, you can add this
   549         action to actions_excluded list.
   550       * New recoverpass action for password recovery:
   551         If you forgot your password, recoverpass sends you an email with a
   552         password recovery token (NOT the encrypted password) that is valid
   553         for 12 hours.
   554       * New moin account resetpw script for resetting a user's password by
   555         the wiki admin.
   556       * New preferences plugin system, see MoinMoin/userprefs/__init__.py.
   557       * New notification system with an optional jabber notification bot, see
   558         HelpOnNotification. HINT: wiki users have to check their notification
   559         settings, esp. if they want to receive trivial update notifications.
   560 
   561     * The diff action now has navigation buttons for prev/next change and also
   562       a revert button to revert to the revision shown below the diff display.
   563     * ThemeBase: support Universal Edit Button, see there for details:
   564       http://universaleditbutton.org/
   565     * ?action=info&max_count=42 - show the last 42 history entries of the page.
   566       max_count has a default of default_count and a upper limit of
   567       limit_max_count - you can configure both in your wiki config:
   568       cfg.history_count = (100, 200) # (default_count, limit_max_count) default
   569     * The CSV parser can sniff the delimiter from the first CSV line so other
   570       delimeters than ";" can be used.
   571     * Admonition support. Added styling for tip, note, important, warning 
   572       and caution in the modern theme. For more info see HelpOnAdmonitions.
   573     * DocBook-formatter:
   574       * supports HTML entities like &rarr; and &#9731;
   575       * supports the FootNote macro
   576       * supports bulletless lists
   577       * support for admonitions
   578       * will export the wiki page's edit history as the generated article's
   579         revision history. Doesn't add history of included pages.
   580       * supports for the MoinMoin comment element, though only inline comments
   581         are likely to be valid since the DocBook remark is an inline element.
   582     * New Hits macro: shows the total hits for the page it is used on.
   583 
   584   Removed Features: ==========================================================
   585     * HINT: Removed attachments direct serving (cfg.attachments - this was
   586             deprecated since long!). Use AttachFile action to serve attachments.
   587     * Duplicated file attachment upload code was removed from Load action (just
   588       use AttachFile action to deal with attachments).
   589     * Removed 'test' action. If you like to run unit tests, use py.test.
   590     * Removed Login macro.
   591 
   592   Bug Fixes: =================================================================
   593     * Better handling of ImportErrors (farmconfig, macros, wikiserverconfig).
   594     * Fix failure of detection of on-disk cache updates.
   595     * Fix traceback in filesys.py on Mac OS X when "import Carbon" fails.
   596 
   597     * AttachFile action / file up- and download / zip support:
   598       * WSGI: use wsgi.file_wrapper (or a builtin simple wrapper). Fixes memory
   599         consumption for sending of large file attachments.
   600       * FastCGI: flush often. Fixes memory consumption for sending of large
   601         file attachments.
   602       * Use the open temporary file for receiving file attachment uploads
   603         (fixes big memory consumption for large file uploads).
   604       * Catch runtime errors raised by zipfile stdlib modules when trying to
   605         process a defective zip.
   606       * When unzipping member files, decode their filenames from utf-8 and
   607         replace invalid chars.
   608       * Make error msg less confusing when trying to overwrite a file attachment
   609         without having 'delete' rights.
   610 
   611     * HINT: page_*_regex processing had to be changed to fix category search.
   612       If you don't use the builtin (english) defaults, you will have to change
   613       your configuration:
   614         old (default): page_category_regex = u'^Category[A-Z]'
   615         new (default): page_category_regex = ur'(?P<all>Category(?P<key>\S+))'
   616       As you see, the old regex did work for detecting whether a pagename is
   617       a category, but it could not be used to search for a category tag in the
   618       page text. The new regex can be used for both and identifies the complete
   619       category tag (match in group 'all', e.g. "CategoryFoo") as well as the
   620       category key (match in group 'key', e.g. "Foo") by using named regex
   621       groups. \S+ means the category key can be anything non-blank.
   622       If you like to simultaneously support multiple languages, use something
   623       like this: ur'(?P<all>(Kategorie|Category)(?P<key>\S+))'
   624       HINT: after changing your configuration, please rebuild the cache:
   625         * stop moin
   626         * moin ... maint cleancache
   627         * start moin
   628       If you don't do this, your groups / dicts will stop working (and also
   629       your ACLs that use those groups). You better do a test whether it works.
   630 
   631     * Xapian search / indexing / stemming:
   632       * Use text/<format> as mimetype for pages.
   633       * Index also major and minor for mimetypes, so it will find 'text' or
   634         'plain' as well as 'text/plain'
   635       * Fix searching for negative terms.
   636       * Improve result list ordering.
   637       * Index filters: redirect stderr to logging system.
   638       * Remove crappy num regex from WikiAnalyzer, improve tokenization.
   639       * Fix AttributeError that happened when trying to access an attribute only
   640         used with xapian search (but regex search is not done by xapian)
   641       * Fix IndexErrors happening when pages are renamed/nuked after the index
   642         was built.
   643       * Fixed indexing of WikiWords (index "WikiWords", "Wiki" and "Words").
   644       * Fix crash if default language is un-stemmable.
   645       * xapian_stemming: removed some strange code (fixes search
   646         title:lowercaseword with xapian_stemming enabled)
   647       * Fixed category indexing (index CategoryFoo correctly as CategoryFoo, not
   648         Foo - for all languages, see page_*_regex change above).
   649     * Builtin search: support mimetype: search for pages for the builtin search
   650       engine (using text/<format>).
   651 
   652     * Parser fixes:
   653       * Wiki: fix subscript parsing (was broken for cases like 'a,,1,2,,').
   654       * Docbook: fixed detection of WikiWords.
   655       * All: Add ssh protocol to url_schemas for ssh:... URLs.
   656 
   657     * XMLRPC:
   658       * Fix xmlrpc request.read() call to use content-length, if available,
   659         fixes hangs with wsgiref server.
   660       * Wiki xmlrpc getPageInfoVersion() fixed:
   661         * works correctly now for old page versions (was unsupported)
   662         * works correctly now for current page version (reported wrong
   663           data when a page had attachment uploads after the last page
   664           edit)
   665         * returns a Fault if it did not find a edit-log entry
   666 
   667   Other Changes: =============================================================
   668     * Using better ACLs and comments on system/help pages now, just taking
   669       away 'write' permission, but using default ACLs for everything else.
   670     * HINT: If you want to use xapian based indexed search, you need to have
   671       Xapian >= 1.0.0 (and you can remove PyStemmer in case you have installed
   672       it just for moin - we now use the stemmer built into Xapian as it
   673       supports utf-8 since 1.0.0).
   674     * Changed default value of cfg.search_results_per_page to 25.
   675     * Surge Protection: If a user is authenticated by a trusted authentication
   676       (see also cfg.auth_methods_trusted) then he/she won't trigger surge
   677       protection, but moin will just log a INFO level log msg with the user's
   678       name so you can find the culprit in case he/she is overusing ressources.
   679     * HINT: Added MyPages and CopyPage to actions_excluded because MyPages
   680       doesn't work without special SecurityPolicy anyway and CopyPage has
   681       questionable behaviour.
   682     * Load action now just creates a new revision of the target page, the
   683       target pagename defaults to the current page name and can be edited.
   684       If the target pagename is empty, moin tries to derive the target pagename
   685       from the uploaded file's name.
   686       Load tries to decode the file contents first using utf-8 coding and, if
   687       that fails, it forces decoding using iso-8859-1 coding (and replacing
   688       invalid characters).
   689     * HINT: cfg.show_login is gone, see code in theme/__init__.py, this may
   690       affect many themes!
   691     * HINT: a new userprefs/ plugin directory will be created by the usual
   692       "moin migration data" command.
   693     * DocBook-formatter:
   694       * generates a valid DOCTYPE
   695       * table support has been improved
   696       * handling of definitions and glossaries is more robust
   697       * supports program language and line numbering in code areas
   698     * HINT: ldap_login behaves a bit different now:
   699       In previous moin versions, ldap_login tended to either successfully
   700       authenticate a user or to completely cancel the whole login process in
   701       any other case (including ldap server down or exceptions happening).
   702       This made subsequent auth list entries rather pointless.
   703       Now it behaves like this:
   704         * user not found in LDAP -> give subsequent auth list entries a
   705           chance to authenticate the user (same happens if it finds multiple
   706           LDAP entries when searching - it logs an additional warning then).
   707         * user found, but wrong password -> cancel login
   708         * ldap server not reachable or other exceptions -> give subsequent
   709           auth list entries a chance
   710       So please make sure that you really trust every auth list entry you have
   711       configured when upgrading or it might maybe change behaviour in a
   712       unexpected or unwanted way.
   713     * ldap_login now supports failover: if it can't contact your LDAP server
   714       (e.g. because it is down or unreachable), it will just continue and
   715       try to authenticate with other authenticators (if there are any in
   716       cfg.auth list). So if you have some mirroring LDAP backup server, just
   717       put another authenticator querying it there:
   718           ldap_auth1 = LDAPAuth(server_uri='ldap://mainserver', ...)
   719           ldap_auth2 = LDAPAuth(server_uri='ldap://backupserver', ...)
   720           auth = [ldap_auth1, ldap_auth2, ]
   721 
   722   Developer notes: ===========================================================
   723     * Page.last_edit() is DEPRECATED, please use Page.edit_info().
   724     * Page._last_edited() is GONE (was broken anyway), please use
   725       Page.editlog_entry().
   726     * New request.send_file() call, making it possible to use server-specific
   727       optimizations.
   728     * getText's (aka _()) 'formatted' keyword param (default: True in 1.6 and
   729       early 1.7) was renamed/changed: it is now called 'wiki' and defaults to
   730       False. Example calls:
   731       _('This will NOT get parsed/formatted by MoinMoin!')
   732       _('This will be parsed/formatted by MoinMoin!', wiki=True)
   733       _('This will be used as a left side of percent operator. %s',
   734         wiki=True, percent=True)
   735     * Page.url 'relative' keyword param (default: True in 1.6 and early 1.7)
   736       was changed to default False).
   737     * The themedict no longer contains 'page_user_prefs' and 'user_prefs',
   738       this may affect custom themes.
   739     * The rst-parser's admonition class names are no longer prepended with
   740       "admonition_". Instead the class names are now for example "note"
   741       and not "admonition_note".
   742 
   743 
   744 Version 1.6.3:
   745   Fixes:
   746     * Security fix: a check in the user form processing was not working as
   747       expected, leading to a major ACL and superuser priviledge escalation
   748       problem. If you use ACL entries other than "Known:" or "All:" and/or
   749       a non-empty superuser list, you need to urgently install this upgrade.
   750     * Security fix: if acl_hierarchic=True was used (False is the default),
   751       ACL processing was wrong for some cases, see
   752       MoinMoinBugs/AclHierarchicPageAclSupercededByAclRightsAfter
   753     * For {{transclusion_targets}} we checked the protocol to be http(s),
   754       this check was removed (because file: and ftp: should work also) and
   755       it's not moin's problem if the user uses silly protocols that can't
   756       work for that purpose.
   757     * Fixed TableOfContents macro for included pages.
   758     * server_fastcgi: added Config.port = None. If you want to use some port
   759       (not a fd), you can set it now in your Config, e.g. port = 8888.
   760     * category: search matches categories even if there are comment lines
   761       between the horizontal rule and the real categories, e.g.:
   762       ... some page text ...
   763       ----
   764       ## optionally some comments, e.g. about possible categories:
   765       ## CategoryJustACommentNotFound
   766       CategoryTheRealAndOnly
   767 
   768       Note: there might be multiple comment lines, but all real categories
   769             must be on a single line either directly below the ---- or
   770             directly below some comment lines.
   771   
   772   Other changes:
   773     * Added 'notes' to config.url_schemas, so you can use notes://notessrv/...
   774       to invoke your Lotus Notes client.
   775     * After creating a new user profile via UserPreferences, you are logged
   776       in with that user (no need to immediately enter the same name/password
   777       again for logging in).
   778 
   779 
   780 Version 1.6.2:
   781   Fixes:
   782     * Security fix: check the ACL of the included page for the rst parser's
   783       include directive.
   784     * Potential security/DOS fix: we removed cracklib / python-crack support
   785       in password_checker as it is not thread-safe and caused segmentation
   786       faults (leading to server error 500 because the moin process died).
   787     * Fix moin_session code for auth methods other than moin_login (e.g. http).
   788       If you have worked around this using moin_anon_session, you can remove
   789       this workaround now (except if you want anon sessions for other reasons).
   790     * Fix moin_session code to delete invalid session cookies and also create
   791       a new session cookie if it got a valid user_obj at the same time.
   792     * Fix xmlrpc applyAuthToken: give good error msg for empty token.
   793     * Fixed category search, use category:CategoryFoo as search term.
   794     * xapian_stemming = False (changed default) to workaround some problems
   795       in the code enabled by it. Fixes the problems when searching for
   796       lowercase or numeric titles or word fragments with the builtin search.
   797     * Fix trail for anon users without a session, do not show a single page.
   798     * Fix MoinMoinBugs/WikiSyncComplainsAboutTooOldMoin.
   799     * Wiki parser: fixed strange insertion of unwanted paragraphs.
   800     * Wiki parser: fix interwiki linking:
   801       Free interwiki links did not change since 1.5 (they still require to match
   802       [A-Z][A-Za-z]+ for the wikiname part, i.e. a ASCII word beginning with an
   803       uppercase letter).
   804       Bracketed interwiki links now behave similar to how they worked in 1.5:
   805       Moin just splits off the part left of the colon - no matter how it looks
   806       like. It then tries to find that in the interwiki map. If it is found,
   807       a interwiki link gets rendered. If it is not found, moin will render a
   808       link to a local wiki page (that has a colon in the pagename). It will
   809       also render a local wiki page link if there is no colon at all, of course.
   810       Examples:
   811       [[lowercasewikiname:somepage]] does an interwiki link (if in the map).
   812       [[ABC:n]] does a local link to page ABC:n (if ABC is NOT in the map).
   813     * Wiki parser: fix interwiki linking for the case that there are query args
   814       in the interwiki map entry and you give additional query args via link
   815       markup (uses correct query arg separator now), e.g.:
   816       [[Google:searchterm|search this|&foo=bar]]
   817     * Creole parser: fixed bug that prevents images inside links.
   818     * Python parser: catch indentation error.
   819     * PageEditor: fixed copyPage for write restricted pages.
   820     * GUI editor: fixed javascript error with too complex word_rule regex,
   821       see MoinMoinBugs/GuiEditorSyntaxError.
   822     * Fixed FCKeditor dialog boxes for FireFox3.
   823     * NewPage macro/newpage action: fixed for non-ascii template pagenames.
   824     * FootNote macro: Fix MoinMoinBugs/FootNoteNumbering.
   825     * EmbedObject macro: bug fix for image mimetype
   826     * WSGI:
   827       * fix TWikiDraw saving a drawing by also evaluating the query args.
   828       * work around unpythonic WSGI 1.0 read() API, fixing broken xmlrpc
   829         putPage with mod_wsgi
   830     * Fix highlighting (see MoinMoinBugs/SearchForPagesWithComments).
   831     * Fix logfile code for EACCESS errors.
   832     * Removed the "logging initialized" log messages because it was issued once
   833       per request for CGI.
   834 
   835   Other changes:
   836     * Show "Comments" toggling link in edit bar only if the page really
   837       contains comments.
   838     * Made default configuration of surge protection a bit more forgiving,
   839       especially for edit action which is currently also used for previews.
   840     * Updated i18n, system/help pages, added Macedonian system text translation.
   841     * Improved moin xmlrpc write command's builtin docs and auto-append
   842       ?action=xmlrpc2 to the target wiki url given.
   843 
   844 
   845 Version 1.6.1:
   846   New features:
   847     * Improved params for [[target|label|params]]:
   848       Added accesskey link tag attribute, e.g.: [[target|label|accesskey=1]].
   849       Additionally to specifying link tag attributes (like class=foo), you can
   850       now also specify &key=value for getting that into the query string of
   851       the link URL.
   852       The "&" character is important, don't forget it or it won't get into the
   853       query string!
   854       E.g. for an attachment, you can use:
   855       [[attachment:foo.pdf|Direct download of foo.pdf|&do=get]]
   856       E.g. for linking to some specific diff, you can use:
   857       [[SomePage|see that diff|&action=diff,&rev1=23,&rev2=42]]
   858       See also the updated HelpOnLinking page!
   859     * AdvancedSearch: make multipe categories/languages/mimetype selections possible
   860     * Added a configuration directive to only do one bind to the LDAP server.
   861       This is useful if you bind as the user the first time.
   862       ldap_bindonce = False # default
   863 
   864   Fixes:
   865     * Fix XSS issue in login action.
   866     * Fix wrong pagename when creating new pages on Mac OS X - that was a big
   867       showstopper for moin 1.6.0 on Mac OS X.
   868     * Fixed 1.6 migration script:
   869       Make sorting python 2.3 compatible.
   870       Just skip corrupted event log lines.
   871       Fix link conversion by using data.pre160 as data_dir.
   872       Fix bad /InterWiki pagenames when encountering interwiki links with bad
   873       wiki names.
   874       Improve ImageLink conversion by using its argument parser code.
   875       Added STONEAGE_IMAGELINK (default: False) switch to wiki markup converter,
   876       toggle it if you had a very old ImageLink macro in production and the
   877       converter output has target and image interchanged.
   878       Fixed UnicodeDecodeError for wrongly encoded attachment filenames.
   879     * Wiki parser:
   880       Fix parsing of link/transclusion description and params.
   881       Fix relative attachment targets.
   882       Fix supported URL schemes (some got lost since 1.5.8).
   883       Showing an upload link for non-existing non-text/non-image transclusions
   884       now (like e.g. *.pdf).
   885     * RST parser: fix attachment: and drawing: processing
   886     * Fix quickhelp when editing RST markup pages.
   887     * Fix Despam action: editor grouping was broken, increase time interval
   888       to 30 days.
   889     * Fix AdvancedSearch domain:system search crashing.
   890     * Only switch off xapian search if we didn't use it because of missing index.
   891     * Fix saving twikidraw drawings by removing 'java' from spider regex.
   892     * Fix classic theme's unsubscribe icon's action link.
   893     * Fix AttachFile action: don't show unzip for packages, only show install
   894       for superuser.
   895     * Fix "su user" troubles on UserPreferences.
   896     * Removed unit tests from ?action=test (due to changes in our test
   897       environment, using py.test now, this was broken).
   898     * Duplicated the top directories' moin.py to wiki/server/moin.py so it gets
   899       installed by setup.py.
   900     * Fix MoinMoinBugs/1.6.0LanguageIgnoreBrowserConfigurationError
   901     * Fix MoinMoinBugs/MoveAttachmentNotWorkingWithModPython
   902     * Fix MoinMoinBugs/1.6.0SupplementationAndAccessRights
   903     * Fix MoinMoinBugs/RenamingUserAllowsOldUsernameToLogin
   904     * Fix MoinMoinBugs/GuiEditorExcelPasteExpatErrorUnboundPrefix
   905 
   906   Other changes:
   907     * I18n texts, system and help pages updated, please update your underlay
   908       directory (see wiki/underlay/...).
   909     * Improved "moin" script help, invoke it with "moin ... package command --help".
   910     * Added some .ext -> mimetype mappings missing on some systems (like Mac OS X).
   911     * Removed ImageLink macro, as this can be easily done with moin wiki link
   912       syntax now - see HelpOnMacros/ImageLink (the 1.6 migration scripts convert
   913       all ImageLink calls to moin wiki link syntax).
   914     * Updated EmbedObject macro.
   915 
   916 
   917 Version 1.6.0:
   918  * This is a reduced CHANGES, ommitting details from rc/beta test and also
   919    less interesting minor changes and fixes. If you want to see full detail,
   920    read it there: http://hg.moinmo.in/moin/1.6/file/640f21787334/docs/CHANGES
   921 
   922    It took MoinMoin development a lot of work and time to implement all the new
   923    and fixed stuff, so please, before asking for support:
   924    * take the time to read all the stuff below
   925    * read the new help pages (copy them from wiki/underlay/ directory)
   926 
   927  * HINT: If you are upgrading from a older moin version and want to keep your
   928    existing data directory, it is essential that you read and follow
   929    README.migration because the wiki markup and user profiles changed significantly.
   930    See also more HINTs below...
   931 
   932   New features: ==============================================================
   933 
   934   User interface: ------------------------------------------------------------
   935     * Removed "underscore in URL" == "blank in pagename magic" - it made more
   936       trouble than it was worth. If you still want to have a _ in URL, just
   937       put a _ into pagename.
   938     * Discussion pages, see FeatureRequests/DiscussionAndOrCommentPages.
   939     * cfg.password_checker (default: use some simple builtin checks for too
   940       easy passwords and, if available, python-crack).
   941       Use password_checker = None to disable password checking.
   942     * We now have a drafts functionality (no */MoinEditorBackup pages any
   943       more):
   944       * If you edit a page and cancel the edit, use preview or save, a draft
   945         copy gets saved for you to a internal cache area (data/cache/drafts/).
   946       * If it is a save what you did and it succeeds, the draft copy gets
   947         killed right afterwards.
   948       * If you accidentally used cancel or your browser or machine crashes
   949         after you used preview, then just visit that page again and edit it.
   950         the editor will notify you that there is a draft of this page and you
   951         will see a "Load draft" button. Click on it to load the draft into the
   952         editor and save the page.
   953       * The draft storage is per user and per page, but only one draft per page.
   954     * cfg.quicklinks_default and cfg.subscribed_pages_default can be used to
   955       preload new user profiles with configurable values.
   956     * attachment links for non-existing attachments look different now:
   957       the note about the non-existing attachment moved to the link title,
   958       the link is shown with nonexistent class (grey).
   959     * attachment embeddings for non-existing attachments show a grey clip
   960     * The list of InterWiki sites is editable in the wiki (page InterWikiMap),
   961       it is getting reloaded every minute.
   962     * We support some new languages and also have new underlay pages, thanks
   963       to all translators and people helping with the docs!
   964 
   965   Actions: -------------------------------------------------------------------
   966     * Synchronisation of wikis using the SyncPages action.
   967     * Xapian (see http://xapian.org/) based indexed search code.
   968       To use this:
   969       * Install xapian-core and xapian-bindings on your machine.
   970         We used 0.9.4, but newer code should hopefully work, too.
   971       * cfg.xapian_search = True
   972       * Execute this to build the index:
   973         $ moin ... index build   # indexes pages and attachments
   974         $ moin ... index build --files=files.lst  # same plus a list of files
   975         You should run those commands as the same user you use for your wiki,
   976         usually this is the webserver userid, e.g.:
   977         $ sudo -u www-data moin --config=... --wiki-url=wiki.example.org/ \
   978                index build --files=files.lst
   979     * New searches:
   980         - LanguageSearch: language:de
   981         - CategorySearch: category:Homepage
   982         - MimetypeSearch: mimetype:image/png (for attachments/files)
   983         - DomainSearch: domain:underlay or domain:standard
   984         - History Search: available in advanced ui
   985       Note: Some currently only available when Xapian is used.
   986     * New config options and their defaults:
   987         xapian_search        False  enables xapian-powered search
   988         xapian_index_dir     None   directory for xapian indices
   989                                     (can be shared for wiki farms)
   990         xapian_stemming      True   toggles usage of stemmer, fallback
   991                                     to False if no stemmer installed
   992         search_results_per_page 10  determines how many hits should be
   993                                     shown on a fullsearch action
   994         xapian_index_history False  indexes all revisions of pages to
   995                                     allow searching in their history
   996     * Speeded up linkto search by avoiding read locks on the pagelinks file.
   997 
   998     * The action menu now calls the actions for the revision of the page you
   999       are currently viewing. If you are viewing the current page revision, you
  1000       get the same behaviour as in moin 1.5, but if you are viewing an old
  1001       page revision, action "raw" will now show you the raw text of this OLD
  1002       revision (not of the current revision as moin 1.5 did it).
  1003       Note that not every action does evaluate the rev=XX parameter it gets.
  1004       Also please note that the edit, info, ... links in the editbar do NOT
  1005       use the rev parameter, but operate on the latest page revision (as
  1006       they did in moin 1.5).
  1007     * Info action lost the links for "raw", "print" and "revert" actions,
  1008       because you can now just view an old revision and select those actions
  1009       from the menu there.
  1010     
  1011     * ?action=sitemap emits a google sitemap (XML), listing all your wiki pages
  1012       and the wiki root URL.
  1013       Page                      Priority / Frequency / Last modification
  1014       --------------------------------------------------------------------
  1015       /                         1.0 / hourly / <now>
  1016       cfg.page_front_page       1.0 / hourly / page last edit

  1019       system/help pages         0.1 / yearly / page last edit
  1020 
  1021     * Action DeletePage and RenamePage can now be used for subpages of a page, too.
  1022     * Added Action CopyPage so you can use now an existing page or page hierarchy
  1023       as template for a new page, see FeatureRequests/CloneOrCopyPages.
  1024     * "Package Pages" action supports attachments now.
  1025     * Added SisterPages support:
  1026       * action=sisterpages will generate a list of url pagename lines for all
  1027         pages in your moin wiki.
  1028       * action=pollsistersites will poll all sister sites listed in
  1029         cfg.sistersites = [(wikiname, fetchURL), ...]
  1030         The fetch URL for the sistersites depends on the wiki engine, e.g.:
  1031         # moin based wiki:
  1032         ('MoinExample', 'http://moin.example.org/?action=sisterpages')
  1033         # oddmuse based wiki:
  1034         ('EmacsWiki', 'http://www.emacswiki.org/cgi-bin/test?action=sisterpages')
  1035         # JspWiki based wiki:
  1036         ('JspWiki', 'http://www.jspwiki.org/SisterSites.jsp')
  1037       * If the current page exists on some sister wiki, a link to it will be
  1038         added to the navibar.
  1039       You can use sister wikis for adding another dimension to your wiki UI: use
  1040       it for simple multi language support, or for comments, or anything else
  1041       "related" you need.
  1042       TODO: add sistersites_force with sister sites we link to even if they do not
  1043             have the page yet (will work only for moin as we don't know
  1044             pagename>url transformation of other wikis)
  1045     * showtags action that lists all tags related to a page.
  1046     * action=view does use mimetypes of EmbedObject too and text files will be shown
  1047       by using their colorized parsers
  1048 
  1049   Macros: --------------------------------------------------------------------
  1050     * RecentChanges:
  1051       * If a change has happened after your bookmark, the updated/new/renamed
  1052         icon links to the bookmark diff.
  1053       * If a page does not exist any more (because it was deleted or renamed),
  1054         we link the deleted icon to the diff showing what was deleted (for the
  1055         delete action). For the rename action, we just show the deleted icon.
  1056     * Conflict icon in RecentChanges is shown if a edit conflict is detected.
  1057     * Enhanced SystemAdmin's user browser, so a SuperUser can enable/disable
  1058       users from there.
  1059     * Included EmbedObject macro for embedding different major mimetypes:
  1060       application, audio, image, video, chemical, x-world. 
  1061       You are able to change the defaults of allowed mimetypes in the config
  1062       var mimetypes_embed. The config var mimetypes_xss_protect is used to deny
  1063       mimetypes. The order of both variables is Allow, Deny (mimetypes_embed,
  1064       mimetypes_xss_protect).
  1065     * Added support for @SELF to the NewPage macro.
  1066     * GetText2 macro that allows to translate messages that contain data.
  1067     * Make the FootNote macro filter duplicates and display a list of numbers
  1068       instead of a list of identical footnotes. Thanks to Johannes Berg for the
  1069       patch.
  1070 
  1071   Parsers: -------------------------------------------------------------------
  1072     * Moin Wiki parser: Changed markup for links, images and macros, see these
  1073       wiki pages: HelpOnLinking, HelpOnMacros
  1074     * New wiki markup for /* inline comments */ - they get rendered as a span
  1075       with class="comment", see next item:
  1076     * There is a new item in the edit bar: "Comments". If you click it, the
  1077       visibility of all class "comment" tags will be toggled. There is a user
  1078       preferences item "show_comments" to set if the default view shows them or not.
  1079     * The wiki parser can be used with css classes now:
  1080       {{{#!wiki comment
  1081       This will render output within a div with class "comment".
  1082       You can use any wiki markup as usual.
  1083       }}}
  1084       You can also combine multiple css classes like this:
  1085       {{{#!wiki red/dotted/comment
  1086       This will render a red background, dotted border comment section.
  1087       }}}
  1088       The same thing will work for any other css classes you have.
  1089       If the css classes contain the word "comment", they will trigger some
  1090       special feature, see next item:
  1091     * Wiki nested parser/pre sections work now, using this syntax:
  1092       a) just use more curly braces if you have 3 closing in your content:
  1093          {{{{
  1094          }}} <- does not terminate the section!
  1095          }}}}
  1096       b) use {{{ + some magic string:
  1097          {{{somemagicstring
  1098          }}} <- does not terminate the section!
  1099          somemagicstring}}}
  1100       c) {{{whatever#!python
  1101          # py code
  1102          whatever}}}
  1103       Pitfall: stuff like below does not work as it did in 1.5:
  1104          {{{aaa
  1105          bbb}}}
  1106       Solution:
  1107          {{{
  1108          aaa
  1109          bbb
  1110          }}}
  1111     * Added support for ircs: URLs (secure IRC).
  1112     * New text/creole parser that allows you to use WikiCreole 1.0 markup,
  1113       use #format creole.
  1114     * HTML parser (called "html") that allows you to use HTML on the page.
  1115       Thanks to the trac team for the nice code.
  1116     * Added the diff parser from ParserMarket, thanks to Emilio Lopes, Fabien
  1117       Ninoles and Juergen Hermann.
  1118 
  1119   XMLRPC: --------------------------------------------------------------------
  1120     * actions_excluded now defaults to ['xmlrpc'] - this kind of disables the
  1121       built-in wiki xmlrpc server code (not completely: it will just answer
  1122       with a Fault instance for any request). If you want to use xmlrpc v1 or
  1123       v2, you have to remove 'xmlrpc' from the actions_excluded list (for
  1124       example if you want to use wikisync, mailimport or any other feature
  1125       using xmlrpc). If you enable xmlrpc, it will be possible that someone
  1126       changes your wiki content by using xmlrpc (it will of course honour ACLs).
  1127     * New XMLRPC methods (see doc strings for details):
  1128       * getMoinVersion
  1129       * system.multicall -- multicall support
  1130       * Authentication System: getAuthToken/appyAuthToken
  1131       * getDiff -- method to get binary diffs
  1132       * mergeDiff -- method to local changes remotely
  1133       * interwikiName -- method to get the IWID and the interwiki moniker
  1134       * getAllPagesEx -- method to get the pagelist in a special way (revnos,
  1135         no system pages etc.)
  1136       * getAuthToken -- make and authentication token by supplying username/password
  1137       * applyAuthToken -- set request.user for following xmlrpc calls (within the
  1138                           same multicall)
  1139       * getUserProfile -- method to get user profile data for request.user
  1140     * Added XMLRPC methods for attachment handling. Thanks to Matthew Gilbert.
  1141     * XMLRPC putPage method adjusted to new AuthToken, config vars 
  1142       xmlrpc_putpage_enabled and xmlrpc_putpage_trusted_only removed.
  1143 
  1144   Scripts / Commandline interface: -------------------------------------------
  1145     * moin export dump now better conforms to the theme guidelines.
  1146     * Added a --dump-user option to the moin export dump command.
  1147       Thanks to Oliver O'Halloran.
  1148 
  1149   Security / Auth / AntiSpam / etc.: -----------------------------------------
  1150     * Hierarchical ACLs are now supported, i.e. pages inheriting permissions
  1151       from higher-level pages. See HelpOnAccessControlLists.
  1152     * If you have "#acl" (without the quotes) on a page, this means now:
  1153       "this page has own (empty) ACLs, so do not use acl_rights_default here"
  1154       Please note that this is COMPLETELY DIFFERENT from having no ACL line at
  1155       all on the page (acl_rights_default is used in that case).
  1156     * Antispam master url is now configurable via cfg.antispam_master_url.
  1157       The default is to fetch the antispam patterns from MoinMaster wiki.
  1158     * Antispam now checks the edit comments against BadContent also.
  1159     * TextCHAs (text-form CAPTCHAs).
  1160       Due to increasingly annoying wiki spammers, we added the option to use
  1161       TextCHAs (for page save (not for preview!), for attachment upload, for
  1162       user creation (not for profile save)).
  1163       This function is disabled by default. If you run a wiki that is editable
  1164       by anonymous or non-approved users from the internet (i.e. All: or Known:
  1165       in ACL terms), you should enable it in your wiki config by:
  1166       textchas = { # DO NOT USE EXACTLY THESE QUESTIONS!!!
  1167           'en': {
  1168               u'H2O is ...': u'water', # bad: too common
  1169               u'2 apples and three bananas makes how many fruits?': ur'(five|5)', # good
  1170               u'2 apples and three pigs makes how many fruits?': ur'(two|2)', # good
  1171               u'2+3': ur'5', # bad: computable
  1172               u'
  1173           },
  1174           'de': { # for german users
  1175               u'H2O ist ...': u'wasser',
  1176           },
  1177       }
  1178       This means that english users will get some random question from the 'en'
  1179       set, german users will get some from the 'de' set. If there is no 'de'
  1180       set configured, moin will fallback to language_default and then to 'en',
  1181       so make sure that you at least have a 'en' set configured (or whatever
  1182       you have set as language_default).
  1183       You need to use unicode for the questions and answers (see that u"...").
  1184       For the answer, you need to give a regular expression:
  1185       * In the easiest case, this is just some word or sentence (first en
  1186         example). It will be matched in a case-insensitive way.
  1187       * For more complex stuff, you can use the power of regular expressions,
  1188         e.g. if multiple answers are correct (second en example). Any answer
  1189         matching the regular expression will be considered as correct, any
  1190         non-matching answer will be considered as incorrect.
  1191 
  1192       Tipps for making it hard to break for the spammers and easy for the users:
  1193       * Use site-specific (not too common) questions.
  1194       * Don't use too hard questions (annoys legitimate users).
  1195       * Don't use computable questions.
  1196       * Don't reuse textchas from other sites.
  1197 
  1198       textchas_disabled_group = None # (default)
  1199       Set this to some group name and noone in this group will get textchas.
  1200       E.g.: textchas_disabled_group = u'NoTextChasGroup'
  1201 
  1202     * The login page gives now the possibility to recover a lost password, thanks to 
  1203       Oliver Siemoneit. This is especially useful for wikis where access to user 
  1204       preferences is restricted by acl.
  1205     * Session handling for logged-in users and (not by default due to expiry
  1206       problems) anonymous users.
  1207     * Updated the ldap_login code from 1.5 branch, supports TLS now.
  1208       See MoinMoin/config/multiconfig.py for supported configuration options
  1209       and their defaults (and please just change what you need to change,
  1210       in your wikiconfig).
  1211     * Interwiki auth: You need to define cfg.trusted_wikis and
  1212        cfg.user_autocreate to use it. Logging in works by entering:
  1213       Name: RemoteWikiName RemoteUserName
  1214       Password: remotepass
  1215       Then moin contacts RemoteWikiName after looking it up in the interwiki
  1216       map and tries to authenticate there using RemoteUserName and remotepass.
  1217       If it succeeds, the remote wiki will return the remote user profile items
  1218       and your local moin will autocreate an account with these values.
  1219 
  1220   Server / Network / Logging: ------------------------------------------------
  1221     * The standalone server script moved to the toplevel directory. This makes
  1222       it possible to directly start moin.py without additional configuration
  1223       to run a MoinMoin DesktopEdition like wiki setup.
  1224       Be careful: DesktopEdition uses relaxed security settings only suitable
  1225       for personal and local use.
  1226     * Added TLS/SSL support to the standalone server. Thanks to Matthew Gilbert.
  1227       To use TLS/SSL support you must also install the TLSLite library
  1228       (http://trevp.net/tlslite/). Version 0.3.8 was used for development and
  1229       testing.
  1230 
  1231     * cfg.log_reverse_dns_lookups [default: True] - you can set this to False
  1232       if rev. dns lookups are broken in your network (leading to long delays
  1233       on page saves). With False, edit-log will only contain IP, not hostname.
  1234     * Added support for "304 not modified" response header for AttachFile get
  1235       and rss_rc actions - faster, less traffic, less load.
  1236 
  1237     * Added logging framework, using stdlib's "logging" module. Just do
  1238       import logging ; logging.debug("your text"). Depending on configuration
  1239       in the server Config class, your stuff will be written to screen (stderr),
  1240       to a moin logfile, to apache's error.log, etc.:
  1241       logPath = None # 'moin.log'
  1242       loglevel_file = None # logging.DEBUG/INFO/WARNING/ERROR/CRITICAL
  1243       loglevel_stderr = None # logging.DEBUG/INFO/WARNING/ERROR/CRITICAL
  1244       NOTE: this is NOT in wikiconfig, but e.g. in moin.cgi or moin.py or ...
  1245 
  1246     * Added some experimental and disabled code, that uses x-forwarded-for
  1247       header (if present) to get the right "outside" IP before a request
  1248       enters our chain of trusted (reverse) proxies.
  1249       This code has the problem that we can't configure it in wikiconfig, so
  1250       if you want to use it / test it, you have to edit the moin code:
  1251       MoinMoin/request/__init__.py - edit proxies_trusted (near the top).
  1252       We will try to make this easier to configure, but there was no time left
  1253       before 1.6.0 release for doing bigger code refactorings needed for that.
  1254 
  1255   Mail: ----------------------------------------------------------------------
  1256     * You can send email to the wiki now (requires xmlrpc), see:
  1257       FeatureRequests/WikiEmailIntegration, HelpOnConfiguration/EmailSupport
  1258 
  1259     * Mail notifications contain a link to the diff action so the user
  1260       can see the coloured difference more easily. Thanks to Tobias Polzin.
  1261 
  1262   Other changes: =============================================================
  1263     * HINT: please copy a new version of your server script from the wiki/server/
  1264       directory and edit it to match your setup.
  1265     * HINT: instead of "from MoinMoin.multiconfig import DefaultConfig" you
  1266       need to use "from MoinMoin.config.multiconfig import DefaultConfig" now.
  1267       You need to change this in your wikiconfig.py or farmconfig.py file.
  1268       See MoinMoin/multiconfig.py for an alternative way if you can't do that.
  1269     * HINT: you need to change some imports (if you have them in your config):
  1270       Old: from MoinMoin.util.antispam import SecurityPolicy
  1271       New: from MoinMoin.security.antispam import SecurityPolicy
  1272       Old: from MoinMoin.util.autoadmin import SecurityPolicy
  1273       New: from MoinMoin.security.autoadmin import SecurityPolicy
  1274     * HINT: you need to change your auth stuff, the new way is:
  1275       from MoinMoin.auth import moin_login, moin_session
  1276       from MoinMoin.auth.http import http
  1277       auth = [http, moin_login, moin_session]
  1278       Do it in a similar way for other auth methods.
  1279     * HINT: you need to change your url_prefix setting in 2 ways:
  1280       1. The setting is now called url_prefix_static (to make it more clear
  1281          that we mean the static stuff, not the wiki script url).
  1282       2. The strongly recommended (and default) value of it is '/moin_static160'
  1283          for moin version 1.6.0 (and will be ...161 for moin 1.6.1). It is
  1284          possible and recommended to use a very long cache lifetime for static
  1285          stuff now (Expires: access plus 1 year), because we require to change
  1286          the URL of static stuff when the static stuff changes (e.g. on a
  1287          version upgrade of moin) to avoid problems with stale cache content.
  1288          Your moin will be faster with lower load and traffic because of this.
  1289          For standalone server, we use 1 year expiry for static stuff now.
  1290          For Apache, Lighttpd and other "external" servers, you have to care
  1291          for configuring them to use a long expiry and change url_prefix_static
  1292          related configuration on upgrade.
  1293       HINT: if you run standalone or Twisted server, the easiest way to get a
  1294             working configuration (with server configuration matching wiki
  1295             configuration) is to NOT set url_prefix_static at all. Moin will
  1296             use matching configuration defaults in this case.
  1297     * url_prefix_action ['action'] was introduced for lowering load and traffic
  1298       caused by searchengine crawlers. Up to now, crawlers where causing a high
  1299       load in internet moin wikis because they tried to get about everything,
  1300       including all actions linked from the user interface.
  1301       Known crawlers only get 403 for most actions, but nevertheless they first
  1302       tried. There was no means keeping them away from actions due to the rather
  1303       braindead robots.txt standard. You can only disallow pathes there, but
  1304       moin's actions were querystring based, not path based (this would need
  1305       regex support in robots.txt, but there is no such thing).
  1306       This changed now. Moin is able to generate action URLs you can handle in
  1307       robots.txt, like /action/info/PageName?action=info. So if you don't want
  1308       bots triggering actions, just disallow /action/ there. Keep in mind that
  1309       attachments are handled by /action/AttachFile, so if you want attached
  1310       files and pictures indexed by search engine, don't disallow
  1311       /action/AttachFile/ in your robots.txt. In order to use this feature,
  1312       set url_prefix_action in your wikiconfig to e.g. "action".
  1313     * We use (again) the same browser compatibility check as FCKeditor uses
  1314       internally, too. So if GUI editor invocation is broken due to browser
  1315       compatibility issues or a wrong browser version check, please file a bug
  1316       at FCKeditor development or browser development.
  1317     * HINT: We removed Lupy based indexed search code. If you were brave enough
  1318       to use cfg.lupy_search, you maybe want to try cfg.xapian_search instead.
  1319 
  1320   Developer notes: ===========================================================
  1321     * We moved the IE hacks to theme/css/msie.css that gets included after all
  1322       other css files (but before the user css file) using a conditional
  1323       comment with "if IE", so it gets only loaded for MSIE (no matter which
  1324       version). The file has some standard css inside (evaluated on all MSIE
  1325       versions) and some * html hacks that only IE < 7 will read.
  1326       HINT: if you use custom themes, you want to update them in the same way.
  1327     * autofilters for databrowser widget. Thanks to Johannes Berg for the patch.
  1328     * changed formatter.attachment_link call (it is now more flexible,
  1329       because you can render the stuff between link start and link end yourself)
  1330     * Page.url() does not escape any more. You have to use wikiutil.escape()
  1331       yourself if you want to write the URL to HTML and it contains e.g. &.
  1332     * The testing wikiconfig moved to tests/wikiconfig.py, the testing wiki
  1333       is now created in tests/wiki/...
  1334     * HINT: Killed "processors" (finally), formatter method changed to:
  1335       formatter.parser(parsername, lines)
  1336     * Refactored some actions to use ActionBase base class.
  1337     * Moved "test" action from wikiaction to MoinMoin/action/
  1338       (and use ActionBase).
  1339     * Moved MoinMoin/config.py to MoinMoin/config/__init__.py.
  1340     * Moved MoinMoin/multiconfig.py to MoinMoin/config/multiconfig.py.
  1341     * Moved "SystemInfo" macro from wikimacro to MoinMoin/macro/.
  1342     * Moved wikiaction.py stuff to MoinMoin/action/__init__.py.
  1343     * Moved wikimacro.py stuff to MoinMoin/macro/__init__.py.
  1344     * Moved wikirpc.py stuff to MoinMoin/xmlrpc/__init__.py.
  1345     * Moved wikitest.py stuff to action/test.py (only used from there).
  1346     * Moved formatter/base.py to formatter/__init__.py (FormatterBase).
  1347     * Moved util/ParserBase.py to parser/ParserBase.py.
  1348     * Moved / splitted request.py into MoinMoin/request/*.
  1349       Most stuff will be broken, please help fixing it (usually some imports
  1350       will be missing and the adaptor script will need a change maybe):
  1351       Tested successfully: CGI, CLI, STANDALONE, FCGI, TWISTED
  1352     * Moved security.py to security/__init__.py.
  1353     * Moved wikiacl.py to security/__init__.py.
  1354     * Moved logfile/logfile.py to logfile/__init__.py.
  1355     * Moved mailimport.py to mail/mailimport.py.
  1356     * Moved util/mail.py to mail/sendmail.py.
  1357     * Moved auth.py to auth/__init__.py.
  1358       Moved util/sessionParser.py to auth/_PHPsessionParser.py.
  1359       teared auth code into single modules under auth/* - moin_session handling
  1360       and the builting moin_login method are in auth/__init__.py.
  1361     * Added wikiutil.MimeType class (works internally with sanitized mime
  1362       types because the official ones suck).
  1363     * Renamed parsers to module names representing sane mimetypes, e.g.:
  1364       parser.wiki -> parser.text_moin_wiki
  1365     * Added thread_monitor debugging aid. It can be activated using:
  1366       from MoinMoin.util import thread_monitor; thread_monitor.activate_hook()
  1367       and then triggered by requesting URL ...?action=thread_monitor - please
  1368       be aware that monitoring threads has a big performance impact on its own,
  1369       so you only want to temporarily enable this for debugging.
  1370       By default, it dumps its output to the data_dir as tm_<timestamp>.log,
  1371       you can change this at bottom of action/thread_monitor.py if you want to
  1372       see output in your browser.
  1373     * Introduced scope parameter to CacheEntry() - if you specify 'farm', it
  1374       will cache into a common directory for all wikis in the same farm, if you
  1375       specify 'wiki', it will use a cache directory per wiki and if you specify
  1376       'item', it will use a cache directory per item (== per page).
  1377       Creating a CacheEntry without explicit scope is DEPRECATED.
  1378     * Smileys moved from MoinMoin.config to MoinMoin.theme.
  1379     * Removed all _ magic in URLs and filenames.
  1380     * request.action now has the action requested, default: 'show'.
  1381     * Cleaned up duplicated http_headers code and DEPRECATED this function
  1382       call (it was sometimes confused with setHttpHeaders call) - it will
  1383       vanish with moin 1.7, so please fix your custom plugins!
  1384       The replacement is:
  1385           request.emit_http_headers(more_headers=[])
  1386       This call pre-processes the headers list (encoding from unicode, making
  1387       sure that there is exactly ONE content-type header, etc.) and then
  1388       calls a server specific helper _emit_http_headers to emit it.
  1389       Tested successfully: CGI, STANDALONE, FCGI, TWISTED
  1390     * setResponseCode request method DEPRECATED (it only worked for Twisted
  1391       anyway), just use emit_http_headers and include a Status: XXX header.
  1392       Method will vanish with moin 1.7.
  1393     * cfg.url_prefix is DEPRECATED, please use cfg.url_prefix_static.
  1394     * d['title_link'] is not supported any more. You can easily make that link
  1395       on your own in your theme, see example in MoinMoin/theme/__init__.py,
  1396       function "title".
  1397     * There is a new Page method called Page.get_raw_body_str that returns
  1398       the encoded page body. This is useful if you just deal with byte data
  1399       (e.g. while generating binary diffs).
  1400     * The TagStore/PickleTagStore system is used to store the syncronisation tags.
  1401     * XMLRPC functions may return Fault instances from now on
  1402     * Moin got multicall support, including a module that makes it usable on the
  1403       client-side without requiring Python 2.4
  1404     * Added no_magic to text_html formatter to disable tag autoclosing.
  1405     * MOIN_DEBUG can be set in the environment to let MoinMoin ignore exceptions
  1406       that would lead to a traceback in the browser. Thanks to Raphael Bossek.
  1407     * There is a new MoinMoin.Page.ItemCache class now with automatic cache
  1408       invalidation based on global edit-log. We currently use it to cache page
  1409       acls, speedup Page.get_rev and reading the page local edit-log.
  1410     * Added wikiutil.renderText parse and format raw wiki markup with all page elements.
  1411     * The user file format has changed, old files will be read correctly but
  1412       will silently be upgraded to the new format so old versions will not
  1413       read the new files correctly (this only affects 'subscribed_pages' and
  1414       'quicklinks' which will be lost when downgrading.)
  1415 
  1416 
  1417 Version 1.5.8:
  1418   New features:
  1419     * Added timing.log to help performance debugging. Use cfg.log_timing = True
  1420       to update <data_dir>/timing.log (default is False, meaning no logging).
  1421 
  1422       Example log entries:
  1423 
  1424 
  1425       Timestamp       PID   Timing Flag action     URL
  1426       -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
  1427       20070512 184401 22690 vvv         None       moinmoin.wikiwikiweb.de/RssFeeds
  1428       20070512 184401 22690 0.267s    - show       moinmoin.wikiwikiweb.de/RssFeeds
  1429 
  1430       Timestamp: YYYYMMDD HHMMSS (UTC)
  1431       PID: the process ID of the moin process
  1432       Timing: when action starts, it will be "vvv"
  1433               when it ends, it logs the total time it needed for execution
  1434       Flag (some are only logged at end of action):
  1435       +   Page exists
  1436       -   Page does not exist
  1437       B   user agent was recognized as bot / spider
  1438       !x! Action took rather long (the higher the x, the longer it took - this
  1439           makes it easy to grep for problematic stuff).
  1440       Action: action name (None is when no action was specified, moin assumes
  1441               "show" for that case)
  1442       URL: the requested URL
  1443 
  1444       For more information about tuning your moin setup, see:
  1445       http://moinmoin.wikiwikiweb.de/PerformanceTuning
  1446     * Added support for ircs, webcal, xmpp, ed2k and rootz protocols - we
  1447       moved all protocols to config.url_schemas, so this is not empty any more.
  1448       It is possible to use these protocols now on wiki pages and in the
  1449       navi_bar. We just generate the URLs, it is up to your browser what it
  1450       does when clicking on those links.
  1451     * cfg.traceback_show (default: 1) can be used to disable showing tracebacks.
  1452       cfg.traceback_log_dir (default: None) can be used to set a directory
  1453       that is used to dump traceback files to. Your users will get a notice to
  1454       which (random) file in that directory the traceback was been written.
  1455       NOTE: while you can feel free to set traceback_show = 0 and
  1456       traceback_log_dir = None, we will also feel free to reject bug reports
  1457       when you (or your site's users) don't give us enough information (like a
  1458       traceback file) to debug the problem. If you set traceback_show = 0,
  1459       we recommend pointing traceback_log_dir to a directory with reasonable
  1460       free space and putting a page onto your wiki that describes who has to
  1461       get contacted (usually the wiki server admin) in case a traceback happens.
  1462       The admin can then locate the traceback file and submit it to moin
  1463       development, if the bug is not already known (see MoinMoin:MoinMoinBugs).
  1464       Of course we will also need all the other details of a bug report, not
  1465       only the traceback file.
  1466 
  1467   Other changes:
  1468     * Updated spider agents list.
  1469     * Reduce bot/spider cpu usage for SystemInfo, OrphanedPages, WantedPages,
  1470       PageHits, PageSize, WordIndex macros (we just return nothing for bots).
  1471 
  1472   Bugfixes:
  1473     * XSS fixes, see http://secunia.com/advisories/24138/ (item 1 and 2).
  1474     * ACL security fixes:
  1475       * MonthCalendar respects ACLs of day pages now.
  1476       * Check the ACL for the rst markup include directive.
  1477     * Fixed cleaning of edit comments (control chars in there could damage
  1478       edit-log).
  1479     * Fixed in-process caching of antispam patterns (didn't update the cache
  1480       for multi-process, persistent servers).
  1481     * Correct encoding/decoding for surge-log data, fixes leftover
  1482       surge-logXXXXXXX.tmp files in data/cache/surgeprotect.
  1483     * Fixed mode of cache files (mkstemp creates them with 0600 mode).
  1484     * Symbolic entities with numbers (like &sup2;) did not work, fixed.
  1485     * We open data/error.log earlier now and we also use it for FastCGI.
  1486     * Fixed unicode cfg.page_group_regex.
  1487     * Fixed moin.spec to use english date format.
  1488     * GUI converter: fixed conversion of relative wiki links.
  1489     * Fixed NewPage macro button label to not be formatted as wiki text.
  1490 
  1491 Version 1.5.7:
  1492   New features:
  1493     * added url_prefix_local which is used for stuff that must be loaded from
  1494       same site as the wiki engine (e.g. FCKeditor GUI editor applet), while
  1495       url_prefix can be a remote server serving the static files (css/img).
  1496       If not set (or set to None), url_prefix_local will default to the value
  1497       of url_prefix.
  1498     * We save some CPU and disk I/O by having EditTemplates and LikePages macro
  1499       (both used on MissingPage) check whether the requesting entity was
  1500       identified as a spider (e.g. search engine bot) and do nothing in that
  1501       case. Normal users won't see any difference.
  1502     * For AttachFile, you can now choose to overwrite existing files of same
  1503       name (nice for updating files).
  1504 
  1505   Bugfixes:
  1506     * XSS Fixes:
  1507       * fixed unescaped page info display.
  1508       * fixed unescaped page name display in AttachFile, RenamePage and
  1509         LocalSiteMap actions
  1510     * WantedPages listed existing pages that are not readable for the user,
  1511       but are linked from pages that ARE readable for the user (so this is NOT
  1512       a privacy/security issue). We now don't list those pages any more as it
  1513       is pointless/confusing, the user can't read or edit there anyway.
  1514     * MoinMoin: href="http://moinmo.in/MoinMoinBugs/TableOfContentsUsesNonExistingIncludeLinks">MoinMoinBugs/TableOfContentsUsesNonExistingIncludeLinks
  1515     * MoinMoin: href="http://moinmo.in/MoinMoinBugs/ActionsExcludedTriggerError">MoinMoinBugs/ActionsExcludedTriggerError
  1516     * GUI editor/converter:
  1517       * ignore <col>/<colgroup>/<meta> elements
  1518       * support <a> within blockquote
  1519     * Remove generated=... attribute from pagelink html output (this attr is
  1520       for internal use only). w3c validator is now happier again.
  1521     * Fixed css class "userpref" (not: "userprefs") of the Login form.
  1522     * Fixed the version number check in the xslt parser for 4suite >= 1.0.
  1523     * We reset the umask to the wanted value every request. This should fix
  1524       wrong file modes when used with Twisted (twistd uses a hardcoded 0077
  1525       umask in daemonize()).
  1526     * Avoid trouble when saving pages with antispam function when MoinMaster
  1527       wiki is having troubles (catch xmlrpc Fault).
  1528 
  1529   Other changes:
  1530     * Standalone server does not do reverse DNS lookups any more (this is a
  1531       standard feature of BaseHTTPServer stdlib module, but we override this
  1532       now and just print the IP).
  1533     * We moved the IE hacks to theme/css/msie.css that gets included after all
  1534       other css files (but before the user css file) using a conditional
  1535       comment with "if IE", so it gets only loaded for MSIE (no matter which
  1536       version). The file has some standard css inside (evaluated on all MSIE
  1537       versions) and some * html hacks that only IE < 7 will read.
  1538       HINT: if you use custom themes, you want to update them in the same way.
  1539     * Improved ldap auth:
  1540       * cfg.ldap_name_attribute was removed because of new cfg.ldap_filter.
  1541         If you had ldap_name_attribute = 'sAMAccountName' before, just use
  1542         ldap_filter = '(sAMAccountName=%(username)s)' now.
  1543       * New cfg.ldap_filter used for the ldap filter string used in the ldap
  1544         search instead of the rather limited, partly hardcoded filter we used
  1545         before. This is much more flexible:
  1546         ldap_filter = '(sAMAccountName=%(username)s)'
  1547         You can also do more complex filtering expressions like:
  1548         '(&(cn=%(username)s)(memberOf=CN=WikiUsers,OU=Groups,DC=example,DC=org))'
  1549       * Added some processing to filter out result entries with dn == None.
  1550       * We set REFERRALS option to 0 before initializing the ldap server
  1551         connection (this seems to be needed for Active Directory servers).
  1552       * We support self-signed ssl certs for ldaps - completely untested.
  1553       * New cfg.ldap_surname_attribute (usually 'sn'), was hardcoded before.
  1554       * New cfg.ldap_givenname_attribute (usually 'givenName'), hardcoded before.
  1555       * New cfg.ldap_aliasname_attribute (usually 'displayName') - if this
  1556         attribute is not there or empty (in the results of the ldap lookup for
  1557         the user), we just make up the aliasname from surname and givenname
  1558         attribute.
  1559       * We only request the attributes we need from ldap (was: all attrs).
  1560       * We deny user login (and break out of auth chain) for the following cases:
  1561         * if a user is not found by ldap lookup
  1562         * if we find more than one matching entry
  1563         * if the password is empty or incorrect
  1564         * if some exception happens
  1565       * Please note that there is an updated ldap sample config in directory
  1566         wiki/config/more_samples/.
  1567       * Added experimental LDAP SSL/TLS support (untested, please help testing),
  1568         see also the sample config.
  1569     * Work around a IE7 rendering problem with long pages getting more and
  1570       more narrow. We just applied the same "fix" as we used for IE6, using
  1571       "display: none" for span.anchor for IE browsers.
  1572     * RSS feed related:
  1573       * We used to emit a <link> tag for the action=rss_rc RSS feed on any
  1574         page. This was changed, we now emit that link only on RecentChanges and
  1575         the current user's language translation of RecentChanges.
  1576         This was changed because Google Toolbar requests the RSS feed linked
  1577         by such a link tag every time it sees one. Thus, if you used the wiki
  1578         normally, it requested the RSS feed every few seconds and caused
  1579         problems due to surge protection kicking in because of that.
  1580       * HINT for custom theme users: if your theme code calls
  1581         rsslink(), then you need to change that to rsslink(d) for 1.5.7+.
  1582 
  1583 
  1584 Version 1.5.6:
  1585   A general security notice:
  1586       Check your Python version, there was a buffer overflow issue in Python
  1587       recently! Details: http://moinmoin.wikiwikiweb.de/PythonUnicodeEscapeBug
  1588 
  1589   Bugfixes:
  1590     * Fix AttributeError traceback with Standalone server (if_modified_since)
  1591     * Fix AttachFile "304 not modified" and redirect status code for Twisted
  1592     * http auth: we now decode username and password to unicode (using
  1593       config.charset == utf-8). Same for SSL client cert auth and CN.
  1594     * Avoid infinite recursion in Page.parsePageLinks.
  1595     * Fixed standalone server failing to shutdown if interface == "".
  1596     * Now MoinMoin does not think anymore that every page links to various user
  1597       homepages.
  1598     * Made the irssi parser more tolerant (Thanks to "TheAnarcat").
  1599     * Now multiple formatters can be used per request, the send_page code was
  1600       not reentrant to this regard. Fixes "empty" search results.
  1601     * Fixed problem with "=" in ImageLink macro links.
  1602     * Not a moin bug, but a silly stdlib os.tempnam function made trouble to
  1603       some people because it lets you override the path given in the code
  1604       by setting the environment variable TMP(DIR). We now use a different
  1605       function to avoid renaming trouble when TMP(DIR) points to a different
  1606       file system.
  1607     * Fixed antispam update on every save (Thanks to "TheAnarcat").
  1608     * GUI converter: don't throw away rowclass for tables.
  1609     * GUI editor formatter: allow height for table cells.
  1610     * GUI editor formatter: comment texts are output using the formatter now. 
  1611 
  1612   New features:
  1613     * Mail notifications contain a link to the diff action so the user
  1614       can see the coloured difference more easily. Thanks to Tobias Polzin.
  1615     * FeatureRequests/MoveAttachments - you can move attachments from one
  1616       page to another (and also rename the attachment at the same time).
  1617       Thanks to Reimar Bauer.
  1618     * Added support for linking to attachment: and inline: URLs with ImageLink.
  1619     * Added UNIX socket support for FastCGI, just set the port to some (socket)
  1620       filename. Details see: MoinMoin:FeatureRequests/FastCgiUnixSocket
  1621     * [[Attachlist(pagename,mimetype)]] lists attachments of pagename (default:
  1622       current page) with optional mimetype restriction (default: all).
  1623       Thanks to Reimar Bauer.
  1624 
  1625   Other changes:
  1626     * Minor performance improvements (might be noticeable if you have many
  1627       custom navi_bar entries and high server load).
  1628     * Avoid usage of no-cache because it breaks attachment download on IE6.
  1629       This is a IE bug, not a moin bug.
  1630     * Added XHTML to the unsafe list.
  1631     * Changed the rst parser to be compatible to the new docutils interface
  1632       for directives.
  1633     * Updated EmbedObject macro.
  1634 
  1635 
  1636 Version 1.5.5a:
  1637   Bugfixes:
  1638     * fixed ticket creation to only use constant values
  1639 
  1640 Version 1.5.5:
  1641   HINT: read docs/README.migration.
  1642   HINT: there was NO change in the underlay/ pages since 1.5.4.
  1643   HINT: If you experience problems with the reStructured Text (rst) parser,
  1644         please downgrade docutils to "0.4" because there were major interface
  1645         breaking API refactorings on the docutils trunk.
  1646 
  1647   Bugfixes:
  1648     * GUI editor fixes:
  1649       * Fixed MoinMoinBugs/GuiEditorModifiesInterwikiPreferred.
  1650       * Fixed MoinMoinBugs/TableAlignmentProbsWithGUI.
  1651     * Not a moin bug, but it severely annoyed IE users and also was less
  1652       comfortable for users of other browser: since about 1.5.4, we served
  1653       attachments with Content-Disposition: attachment - so that the user has
  1654       to save them to disk. This was to fix a possible XSS attack using attached
  1655       HTML files with Javascript inside for stealing your moin cookie or doing
  1656       other nasty things. We improved this by using different behaviour depending
  1657       on the potential danger the attached file has when served inline:
  1658       mimetypes_xss_protect = ['text/html', 'application/x-shockwave-flash', ]
  1659       This is the default value. If you know more dangerous stuff, please just
  1660       add the mimetypes there to protect your users and file a bug report
  1661       telling us what we missed.
  1662     * Fixed MoinMoinBugs/ReStructuredTextRelativeLinksBroken, thanks to Stefan
  1663       Merten.
  1664     * Make tickets used for some actions more safe.
  1665 
  1666   New features:
  1667     * edit_ticketing [True] - we protect page save by a ticket (same stuff we
  1668       already use for DeletePage and RenamePage action).
  1669       NOTE: If you don't use your browser for editing, but some tool like
  1670             "editmoin" or "MoinMoin plugin for jEdit", you'll need an update
  1671             of them supporting the ticket.
  1672             Alternatively, you can use edit_ticketing = False setting - this
  1673             is not recommended for internet wikis as it will make spamming them
  1674             easier.
  1675     * If we detect some spammer, we kick him out by triggering surge protection
  1676       (if surge protection is not disabled).
  1677 
  1678 Version 1.5.5rc1:
  1679   Bugfixes:
  1680     * Fixed MoinMoinBugs/XmlRpcBrokenForFastCgi - thanks to Johannes Berg.
  1681     * Fixed gui editor converter confusing of `` and {{{}}} markup.
  1682     * Fixed emission of HTTP headers (esp. Vary: Cache-Control:).
  1683     * Fixed a bad crash that happens (on ANY page!) when you put a *Dict
  1684       page's name as a member into a *Group page.
  1685     * Fix MyPages action title to use an unformatted string.
  1686     * Fix double quoted-printable encoding in generated emails (note: this is
  1687       not a moin bug - this just works around bugs in python stdlib).
  1688     * Fix mode of drawing files (use config.umask).
  1689     * Fix trouble with /?action= urls by dropping getPageNameFromQueryString
  1690       code. 
  1691     * Fixed sre unpickle issues seen on some machines by avoiding to pickle
  1692       the regex.
  1693     * Fix Clock code, add more timers.
  1694     * Worked around FastCGI problem on Lighttpd: empty lines in the error log.
  1695     * Fix (add) locking for caching's .remove() call, small fixes to lock code.
  1696     * Print error message when --target-dir=path is missing from moin export
  1697       dump command.
  1698 
  1699   New features:
  1700     * Added support for "304 not modified" response header for AttachFile get
  1701       and rss_rc actions - faster, less traffic, less load.
  1702     * Limit rss with full diffs to 5 items.
  1703     * Allow surge_action_limits = None to disable surge protection.
  1704     * moin.fcg improved - if you use FastCGI, you must use the new file:
  1705       * can self-terminate after some number of requests (default: -1, this
  1706         means "unlimited lifetime")
  1707       * the count of created threads is limited now (default: 5), you can use
  1708         1 to use non-threaded operation.
  1709       * configurable socket.listen() backlog (default: 5)
  1710     * Added indonesian i18n (id).
  1711     * Some measures against spammers trying to brute force their spam into moin.
  1712     * EmbedObject macro: added mov, mpg and midi support
  1713     * moin ... export dump --target-dir=PATH --page=PAGENAME_REGEX
  1714       You must specify --target-dir (where dump will write the html files to)
  1715       and you may specify --page and either a page name or a regex used to
  1716       match all pages you want to export. Default is to export all pages.
  1717 
  1718   Other changes:
  1719     * Tuning:
  1720       * more efficient locking code on POSIX platforms, we do much less I/O
  1721         for locking now
  1722       * removed most chmod calls in favour of a single os.umask call
  1723     * Improved Python 2.5 compatibility. Note: if you think that MoinMoin
  1724       is using too much RAM, you might want to look at Python 2.5 because
  1725       of its improved memory management.
  1726     * Throw away SAVE comments longer than 200 chars (you can't enter those by
  1727       the user interface, so only spammer using automatic POSTs do them).
  1728     * Updated spider user agent list.
  1729     * BadContent and LocalBadContent now get noindex,nofollow robots header,
  1730       same as POSTs.
  1731     * Standalone opens it logfile unbuffered from now on, thanks to
  1732       Carsten Grohmann.
  1733     * Avoid trouble when request.write() data contains None, just skip it -
  1734       thanks to Juergen Hermann.
  1735     * Instead of showing a ConfigurationError, moin now emits "404 Not found"
  1736       http headers and a hint about what could be wrong. This won't fill up
  1737       your logs just because of typos and spiders still trying old URLs.
  1738 
  1739  
  1740 Version 1.5.4:
  1741     HINT: read docs/README.migration.
  1742 Version 1.5.4-current:
  1743     * increased maxlength of some input fields from 80 to 200
  1744 
  1745 Version 1.5.current:
  1746   Developer notes:
  1747     * We switched to Mercurial SCM, see here for more infos:
  1748       http://moinmoin.wikiwikiweb.de/MoinDev/MercurialGuide
  1749 
  1750   Bugfixes:
  1751     * fix MonthCalendar macro for non-ASCII pagenames (thanks to Jonas Smedegaard)
  1752     * remove 'search' and 'google' from bot user agent list and add some more
  1753       specific terms
  1754     * Fix the forgotten password email login URL and also properly encode the
  1755       email body. Thanks to Robin Dunn for the patch.
  1756     * Applied a patch by Matthew Gilbert for increased compatiblity with
  1757       latest docutils.
  1758 
  1759 
  1760 Version 1.5.3:
  1761   New Features:
  1762     * Added CSS classes for TableOfContents macro.
  1763 
  1764   Bug Fixes:
  1765     * GUI editor / GUI editor converter:
  1766       * Fixed missing GUI editor link in edit bar.
  1767       * Fixed table/row/cell style spaces.
  1768       * Changed <p> generation for macros.
  1769       * Fixed handling of subpages.
  1770       * Fixed processing of complex list elements (thanks to Craig Markwardt).
  1771       * Fixed processing of html \n (thanks to Craig Markwardt).
  1772       * Fixed joining of comment lines with text below them.
  1773       * Fixed table height attribute crash.
  1774     * Fixed sslclientcert auth.
  1775     * Added some missing files to i18n processing, translatable strings more
  1776       complete now.
  1777     * Change <p> generation from self-closing (<p />) to auto-closing (only
  1778       emit <p>, let browser find place for </p>).
  1779     * Fix eating of newline before tables.
  1780     * Fixed incorrect login hint for not logged-in users trying a disallowed
  1781       action.
  1782     * Fixed nasty missing or double </a> formatter bug (mostly happening when
  1783       user has enabled questionmarks for nonexisting pages).
  1784 
  1785   Other Changes:
  1786     * We catch and ignore html to wiki conversion errors in case of hitting
  1787       the cancel button, so you can get out of the error screen.
  1788 
  1789 Version 1.5.3-rc2:
  1790   New Features:
  1791     * Modified SystemInfo macro to give human readable units and disk usage
  1792     * cfg.editor_quickhelp makes the quick help below the editor configurable
  1793       (at least as far as the default_markup is concerned). If set to None,
  1794       it doesn't display any quickhelp. Thanks to Seth Falcon for the patch.
  1795 
  1796   Bugfixes:
  1797     * Fixed double class attribute for nonexistent links
  1798     * Fixed double </a> with qm_noexist option
  1799     * Fixed table xxx="yyy" style attribute parsing
  1800     * If not (editor_force and editor_default == 'text') then display GUI mode
  1801       switch button (this is only a partial fix, but enough to deny the GUI
  1802       mode to your users completely)
  1803     * Fixed XSS issue which could lead to cookie theft etc.
  1804     * Fixed definition list "same level" indenting.
  1805     * Fixed pagename in log for PackagePages action.
  1806     * Made <p> self-closing and line-anchors more well-behaved, thanks to
  1807       Martin Wilck for the patch. I didn't apply the <ol> patch, because this
  1808       is no real problem, just a problem of a bad standard.
  1809     * Fixed gui editor *bgcolor crash.
  1810     * Support/Fix tableclass attr with gui editor.
  1811 
  1812   Other changes:
  1813     * Moved back UserPreferences action link from menu to top of page (renaming
  1814       it to "Preferences"), added "Cancel" button to make it possible to return
  1815       to the previous page without saving preferences.
  1816     * Removed formatter.url "attrs" keyword arg that took premade html, we use
  1817       separate kw args per attribute now.
  1818     * Moved broken tests to MoinMoin/_tests/broken (= disabling them).
  1819       All "active" tests run ok now.
  1820       If you want to compare, I included the output of this test run:
  1821       $ make test >tests/make_test.out
  1822 
  1823  
  1824 Version 1.5.3-rc1:
  1825 
  1826   New features:
  1827     * HINT: please read README.migration
  1828     * Login and Logout are actions now, therefore you stay on the page where
  1829       you were before.
  1830     * UserPreferences is also an action now and moved from top border (in
  1831       modern theme) to the "more actions" dropdown menu. You also stay on the
  1832       same page.
  1833     * There is also a [[Login]] macro now. You can put it on any page you want
  1834       and if the user is not logged in, it renders the login form. If the user
  1835       is logged in, it doesn't render anything.
  1836     * We check cfg.superuser to be a list of user names (as documented) and
  1837       deny superuser access if it is not. This avoids security issues by
  1838       wrong configuration.
  1839     * auth methods changed:
  1840       HINT: if you wrote own auth methods, please change them as you see in
  1841             MoinMoin/auth.py and test them again before relying on them.
  1842       * now get a user_obj kw argument that is either a user object returned
  1843         from a previous auth method or None (if no user has been made up yet).
  1844         The auth method should either return a user object (if it has
  1845         determined one) or what it got as user_obj (being "passive") or None
  1846         (if it wants to "veto" some user even if a previous method already has
  1847         made up some user object).
  1848       * return value of continue_flag is now True in most cases (except if
  1849         it wants to "veto" and abort).
  1850       * moin_cookie auth method now logs out a user by deleting the cookie and
  1851         setting user_obj.valid = 0. This makes it possible to still get the
  1852         user's name in subsequent auth method calls within the same request.
  1853       * added ldap_login and smb_mount auth methods, see MoinMoin/auth.py and
  1854         wiki/config/more_samples/ldap_smb_farmconfig.py
  1855     * MonthCalendar now takes an additional argument for specifying a template
  1856       to use to directly invoke the page editor when clicking on non-existing
  1857       day pages.
  1858     * Added ImageLink macro. Thanks to Jeff Kunce, Marcin Zalewski, Reimar
  1859       Bauer and Chong-Dae Park for working on it.
  1860     * Lupy stuff (still experimental, partly broken and disabled by default):
  1861       * Attachment search using lupy (lupy_search = 1 in your config)
  1862         Title search will also search attachment filenames.
  1863         Full text search will also search attachment contents.
  1864       * Indexing filter plugins, see MoinMoin:FiltersForIndexing
  1865         Some filters depend on external converters that might not be available
  1866         for any platform (see Depends: line in filter plugin).
  1867         Feel free to contribute more filter plugins, especially if you wrote
  1868         some nice platform independant filter in Python for some popular file
  1869         format! Filters implemented so far (depending on):
  1870         MS Word, RTF, MS Excel (antiword, catdoc)
  1871         PDF (pdftotext)
  1872         OpenOffice.org XML based data formats (-)
  1873         XML, HTML (-)
  1874         text/* (-)
  1875         JPEG's EXIF data (-)
  1876         Binary generic (-)
  1877       * As you might know, Lupy is "retired" (that means it isn't developped
  1878         by its authors any more). We are currently evaluating Xapian as new
  1879         indexing search engine in moin.
  1880         If we succeed, we will replace Lupy stuff by some Xapian interface
  1881         code in moin.
  1882         But: the filters will likely stay, as we also need them with Xapian.
  1883     
  1884     * A new MoinMoin script interface was introduced:
  1885       
  1886       Syntax: moin [options] <cmdmodule> <cmdname> [options]
  1887       
  1888       For example:
  1889       moin --config-dir=/my/cfgdir --wiki-url=wiki.example.org/ \
  1890            export dump --page=WikiSandBox
  1891       
  1892       This will call the "moin" script, which will use the --config-dir and
  1893       --wiki-url options to initialize, then it will go to MoinMoin.script
  1894       module, import the export.dump module from there and run it, providing
  1895       the additional --page value to it.
  1896 
  1897       The old scripts that have not been migrated to this new interface can
  1898       still be found in MoinMoin/script/old/ - including the old migration
  1899       scripts.
  1900     * moin ... account create --name=JoeDoe --email=joe@doe.org
  1901     * moin ... account disable --name=JoeDoe
  1902     * moin ... acount check     <-- this is what usercheck script was before
  1903     * moin ... maint cleancache <-- this is what cachecleaner script was
  1904     * moin ... maint cleanpage  <-- this is what pagescleaner script was
  1905 
  1906   Bugfixes:
  1907     * cookie_lifetime didn't work comfortable for low values. The cookie was
  1908       created once on login and never updated afterwards. So you got logged
  1909       out cookie_lifetime hours later, no matter whether you were active at
  1910       that time or not. This has been changed, we update the cookie expiry now
  1911       on every request, so it will expire cookie_lifetime after your last
  1912       request (not after login).
  1913     * Fixed logout problems when using cfg.cookie_path.
  1914     * Fixed cookie_path for root url wikis.
  1915     * Lupy search now behaves a bit less funky. Still no guarantees...
  1916     * We lowered the twisted server timeout to 2 minutes now (was: 10) because
  1917       it just used up too many files (open TCP connections until it timeouts)
  1918       on our farm.
  1919     * The algorithm used for processing the farmconfig.wikis list was changed
  1920       to work for big farms (>= 50 wikis), too. This works around the python
  1921       "re" module limitation of having a maximum of 100 named groups in a RE.
  1922     * Fixed a TypeError which occurred for formatters that dislike None values.
  1923       (cf. http://moinmoin.wikiwikiweb.de/MoinMoinBugs/PythonErrorEditingFrontPage)
  1924     * Fixed GUI editor converter error for https:... image URLs.
  1925     * ThemeBase (use by modern/rightsidebar): removed duplicate AttachFile from
  1926       actions menu (we already have it in editbar).
  1927     * Speedup group/dicts scanning for persistent servers.
  1928     * Implemented HEAD requests for standalone server, this should fix some of
  1929       the strange effects happening when using "Save as" on attachments.
  1930     * Not a moin bug, but rather a workaround for non-standard non-ASCII DNS
  1931       hostnames: we just use the IP instead of crashing now.
  1932     * Spurious cyclic usage error in i18n fixed.
  1933     * Fixed antispam for python 2.5a xmlrpclib.
  1934     * I18n for linenumber toggle in listings.
  1935     * All action menu entries are translatable now.
  1936 
  1937   Other:
  1938     * Added css classes for the rst admonitions. Thanks to TiagoMacambira!
  1939 
  1940 Version 1.5.2:
  1941 
  1942   New features:
  1943     * Added FullSearchCached macro which is statically cached.
  1944       Use it if you do not depend on fresh search results but prefer raw speed.
  1945     * Added surge protection, see HelpOnConfiguration/SurgeProtection.
  1946     * Allow hex and symbolic entities.
  1947     * If there is a user with empty password, we just generate a random one
  1948       when he requests it getting sent by mail. Thanks to Reimar Bauer.
  1949     * The superuser now can switch to another user using UserPreferences -
  1950       nice to help your users when they forgot their password or need other
  1951       help. You need to logout/relogin to use your own userid afterwards.
  1952       This function only works correctly if you use moin_cookie authentication.
  1953       Thanks to Reimar Bauer.
  1954     * Add new markup for bulletless lists: just use a "." instead of "*".
  1955 
  1956   Other changes:
  1957     * Added "voyager" to bot useragent list.
  1958     * Added locking for caching subsystem.
  1959     * Deron Meranda's formatter API cleanup.
  1960     * Added div and span to formatter API.
  1961     * Removed old unfinished form and export code.
  1962     * updated i18n
  1963 
  1964   Fixes:
  1965    * Fixed table attribute parsing.
  1966    * Fixed cookie handling wrt properties adherance.
  1967    * The new "." list markup makes it possible to have a bulletless list with
  1968      elements on the same level. Before this change and only using indentation
  1969      with blanks, that would get merged into a single paragraph.
  1970    * It is possible now to have multiple paragraphs in the same list element,
  1971      just leave an empty line in between the paragraphs.
  1972    * Fixed GAP processing for ordered lists.
  1973    * Fix text_gedit formatter's invalid list nesting.
  1974    * Fixed hr crash in blockquote (but needs more work).
  1975    * Fixed FootNote's formatter usage.
  1976    * Fixed rst's headline levels.
  1977    * Fixed MoinMoinBugs/WikiParserThinksItIsInsidePreWhenItIsNot
  1978    * Fixed MoinMoinBugs/ListItemGeneratedOutsideList
  1979    * Fixed that macros were followed by a wrong <p>.
  1980    * Added <blockquote> to the block elements in the text_html formatter,
  1981      so it does not close it erratically when you close a inner <p>.
  1982    * GUI editor converter now also accept http: urls without // (relative or
  1983      same server urls).
  1984    * Fixed the DocBook parser in cases where the pagename was non-ascii.
  1985    * Fixed MoinMoinBugs/ProcessInlineDontSupportUlElement
  1986 
  1987 
  1988 Version 1.5.1:
  1989 
  1990   Fixes:
  1991     * Fixed rst parser docutils version check
  1992     * Repaired attachment unzipping feature.
  1993     * Fixed the AddRevision command of the PackageInstaller.
  1994     * improved the migration scripts (used to migrate pre-1.3 wikis to 1.3+):
  1995       * do not crash on empty lines in event log
  1996       * fix edit log format for very old moin data (like 0.11)
  1997       * workaround for an ugly win32 operating system bug leading to wiki text
  1998         file mtime not matching edit logs timestamp values if there was some
  1999         timezone change since last edit (e.g. a daylight saving tz switch),
  2000         but differing 3600s.
  2001         This affected pre-1.3 moin wiki servers running on win32 OS only.
  2002         We now try to correct those inconsistencies in mig05 by fuzzy matching.
  2003     * fixed bracketed link scheme icon (css class)
  2004     * we included a modified copy of Python 2.4.2's copy.py as some previous
  2005       python versions seem to have problems (2.3.x, x < 5 and also 2.4[.0]),
  2006       see: http://moinmoin.wikiwikiweb.de/MoinMoinBugs/DeepCopyError
  2007       Our own copy.py was slightly modified to run on 2.3.x and 2.4.x.
  2008     * Fixed the problem of not being able to change the date/time format back
  2009       to "Default" (UserPreferences).
  2010     * We generate the GUI editor footer now the same way as the text editor
  2011       footer.
  2012     * Include a CSS workaround for yet another IE bug, see:
  2013       MoinMoinBugs:InternetExplorerPeekABooBugInRightSideBar
  2014     * classic theme: added GUI editor link
  2015     * classic theme: added pagename header to editor screen
  2016     * the "mail enabled" check now also checks whether mail_from is set
  2017 
  2018   Other changes:
  2019     * Updated FCKeditor to current CVS (2006-01-08 == 2.2+)
  2020     * Split up show_hosts into show_hosts and show_names
  2021     * attachment:file%20with%20spaces.txt in attachment list
  2022     * added support for file:// in GUI editor link dialogue, see also:
  2023       MoinMoin:FileLinks
  2024     * cfg.mail_smarthost now supports "server:port" syntax, the default port
  2025       is 25, of course.
  2026     * removed unused kwargs showpage/editable/form from wikiutil.send_footer
  2027     * updated i18n (translation texts, additional languages)
  2028     * removed interwiki:pagename from print view's top of page, added it to
  2029       the "lasted edited" line at bottom right.
  2030 
  2031 
  2032 Version 1.5.0:
  2033   HINT: 1.5.0 uses the same data/pages format as 1.3.x. The only thing you want
  2034         to check is whether the 1.5.x version you are upgrading to has NEW mig
  2035         scripts compared to the version you are running now (e.g. in 1.3.5 we
  2036         added some scripts that fixed some small problems).
  2037         See the MoinMoin/scripts/migration/ directory.
  2038         You must run every mig script in sequence and only ONCE ever.
  2039   Fixes:
  2040     * Fix <x=y> table attributes parsing. Thanks to Reimar Bauer.
  2041     * Fixed a few bugs in the reStructured text parser. Note that you
  2042       need to install docutils 0.3.10 or newer (snapshot from December 2005
  2043       or newer) to make reStructuring parsing work:
  2044      * Case preservation for anonymous links
  2045      * MoinMoin links get the appropriate CSS class
  2046      * Images do not get special CSS markup anymore
  2047      Thanks to Matthew Gilbert.
  2048     * Fixed a bug in the WSGI code which led to incorrect exception handling.
  2049     * Removed all nationality flags. They used to be used for indicating some
  2050       specific language (NOT nationality) and this was simply wrong and a bad
  2051       idea.
  2052     * Fixed some header rendering issues (CSS).
  2053     * SystemAdmin macro now checks against cfg.superuser list.
  2054 
  2055   Other changes:
  2056     * Added turkish i18n. To be considered as alpha as it got in last minute.
  2057 
  2058 
  2059 Version 1.5.0rc1:
  2060   This is the first release candidate of MoinMoin 1.5.0.
  2061   
  2062   Fixes:
  2063     * fixed broken logs when a DeletePage (maybe also RenamePage) comment
  2064       contained CR/LF characters (could happen when using copy&paste)
  2065     * fixed GUI editor MoinEditorBackup page containing HTML instead of wiki
  2066       markup
  2067     * fixed invalid HTML in FootNotes
  2068     * fixed HTML source in EditorBackup after canceling GUI editor
  2069     * Footnotes of included pages are not shown at the bottom of the including page.
  2070     * Bug in Dict handling that often breaks first entry
  2071 
  2072 Version 1.5.0beta6:
  2073   Authentication:
  2074     * Added SSO module for PHP based apps. Currently supported: eGroupware 1.2.
  2075       No need to login in two systems anymore - MoinMoin will read the PHP session
  2076       files.
  2077 
  2078   Fixes:
  2079     * Improved rendering of bullet lists and external links in Restructured text.
  2080       Thanks to Matthew Gilbert.
  2081     * Fixed modern theme rendering, including some fixes and workarounds for
  2082       broken MS IE.
  2083     * When checking for email uniqueness, do not compare with disabled user
  2084       profiles.
  2085     * Fix sending of HTTP headers for Despam action.
  2086     * Add some margin left and right of the link icons.
  2087 
  2088   Other changes:
  2089     * Made it easier for auth methods needing a user interface (like ldap or
  2090       mysql stuff). Unlike http auth, they usually need some "login form".
  2091       We made UserPreferences login form values (name, password, login, logout)
  2092       available as kw args of the auth method, so it is easy and obvious now.
  2093     * Make login and logout show at the same place. Is only shown when
  2094       show_login is True (default).
  2095     * Disabled login using &uid=12345.67.8910 method. Please use name/password.
  2096     * Made builtin moin_cookie authentication more modular: the cookie is now
  2097       touched by MoinMoin.auth.moin_cookie only, with one minor discomfort:
  2098       When creating a user, you are not automatically logged in any more.
  2099     * We now use the packager for additional help and system pages in all other
  2100       languages except English. The packages are attached to SystemPagesSetup
  2101       page and can be installed from there after getting "superuser" powers.
  2102       The "extra" package contains a collection of orphan pages not listed on
  2103       some SystemPagesIn<Language>Group page.
  2104 
  2105 
  2106 Version 1.5.0beta5:
  2107   Fixes:
  2108     * Fixed a minor user interface bug: it showed RenamePage and DeletePage
  2109       actions in the menu if you only had write rights and then complained
  2110       when you really tried when you had no delete rights additionally.
  2111     * We don't remove RenamePage and DeletePage from menu any more if user is
  2112       unknown. This stuff is only driven by ACLs now.
  2113     * Some fixes to Despam action.
  2114     * Fixed moin_dump (broken by some recent theme init change).
  2115     * Fixed a few tests by moving the theme init from moin_dump to RequestCLI.
  2116     * removed old_onload reference from infobox.js
  2117     * Fixed MoinMoin logo for IE.
  2118     * search: fixed whitespace handling in linkto: search terms
  2119     * Increased stability of the tests system by outputting results to sys.stdout
  2120       instead of request. Note that this changes the semantics for e.g. mod_py or
  2121       mod_fcgi.
  2122     * Fixed packaging system in the case of AddRevision that does not alter the page.
  2123     * Fixed a few bugs in the XML formatters (dom_xml, text_xml, xml_docbook).
  2124     * Fixed link icons. We now just use a.xxx.before where xxx is the link scheme,
  2125       e.g. a.http.before. See theme's common.css.
  2126     * Hopefully fixed some issue with non-ASCII attachment filenames.
  2127     * Workaround for Opera 8.5 making silly "No addition" categories.
  2128     * Do not show GUI editor for non-wiki format pages, because we only have a
  2129       converter from html to wiki right now.
  2130     * Fix the modern CSS issues for editbar, when it shifted content far right.
  2131       Also removed the absolute height value that never was right.
  2132     * Fix mod_python adaptor bugs failing to handle Location correctly.
  2133       See: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=339543
  2134 
  2135   Other changes:
  2136     * Added irc:// to the builtin supported link schemas. You can remove it
  2137       from config.url_schemas in case you have patched it in there.
  2138     * Added cfg.user_autocreate (default: False). Use True to enable user
  2139       profile autocreation, e.g. when you use http authentication, so your
  2140       externally authenticated users don't need to create their moin profile
  2141       manually. The auth method (see cfg.auth list) must check this setting
  2142       if it supports auto creation.
  2143     * Added user_autocreate support for auth.http and auth.sslclientcert.
  2144     * Added "." and "@" to allowed characters in usernames. This is needed
  2145       e.g. when using mod_pubcookie for authentication. mod_pubcookie returns
  2146       userids like "geek@ANDREW.CMU.EDU" (e.g. the Kerberos domain is part of
  2147       the id). Thanks to Brian E. Gallew for his patch, which we used for
  2148       inspiration for user autocreation changes.
  2149     * Changed auth method to return a tuple (user_obj, continue_flag), see
  2150       comments in auth.py.
  2151     * auth methods now create user objects with kw args auth_method and
  2152       auth_attribs, so that moin knows later how the user was authenticated
  2153       and which user object attributes were determined by the auth method.
  2154     * Added MoinMoin/scripts/import/IrcLogImporter.py to import supybot's
  2155       IRC logs into a moin wiki. We use MonthCalendar compatible page names,
  2156       so you can use the calendar for showing / navigating the logs.
  2157     * Removed packager binary from FCKeditor (fixing a Debian policy problem).
  2158     * Worked around .png transparency bugs of IE with the new logo. We ship
  2159       two logos: moinmoin.png without an alpha channel (IE compatible) and
  2160       moinmoin_alpha.png which has an alpha channel and looks better on
  2161       browsers with full .png support.
  2162     * Allow a .zip file to have a directory in it if it is the only one.
  2163 
  2164 Version 1.5.0beta4:
  2165   Fixes:
  2166     * use <span class="anchor"> instead of <a> for line-xxx anchors, this
  2167       fixes some rendering problems on IE
  2168     * Fixed the ReStructured text parser when it was used with non-HTML
  2169       formatters. Increased compatiblity with new docutils code.
  2170       (Thanks to Matt Gilbert.)
  2171   Other changes:
  2172     * cfg.stylesheets = [] (default). You can use this on wiki or farm level
  2173       to emit stylesheets after the theme css and before the user prefs css.
  2174       The list entries must be ('screen', '/where/ever/is/my.css') style.
  2175     * Added sample code for auth using an external cookie made by some other
  2176       program. See contrib/auth_externalcookie/*. You need to edit it to
  2177       fit whatever cookie you want to use.
  2178 
  2179 Version 1.5.0beta3:
  2180   Fixes:
  2181     * fixed editor preview throwing away page content for new pages
  2182     * require POST for userform save and create* action
  2183     * use request.normalizePagename() while collecting pagelinks
  2184     * do not offer gui editor for safari
  2185   Other changes:
  2186     * tell user if account is disabled
  2187     * added support for linking to .ico and .bmp
  2188     * attachment methods for the text_xml and xml_docbook formatters
  2189     * new favicon
  2190     * updated i18n (fixed nl, did nobody notice this?) and underlay
  2191     * changed show_interwiki default to 0
  2192 
  2193 Version 1.5.0beta2:
  2194   Fixes:
  2195     * fix wrong _ in title links (MoinMoinBugs/AddSpaceWikiNameAtHead)
  2196     * fix gui editor (converter) crash on save
  2197     * MoinMoinBugs/PageHitsFails
  2198     * MoinMoinBugs/PackagePagesFailsBecauseAllowedActionsMissing
  2199     * Avoid destroying existing page content if editor is called with
  2200       template parameter for an existing page.
  2201     * fix countdown javascript for browser status line in editor
  2202     * added page title display for editor
  2203     * added header div for classic theme
  2204 
  2205   Authentication and related:
  2206     * Added a WhoAmI.py wiki xmlrpc plugin to check whether auth works
  2207       correctly for xmlrpc. There is a counterpart script WhoAmI.py that
  2208       uses http auth when calling the xmlrpc plugin, so you can use it to
  2209       check http auth.
  2210 
  2211 Version 1.5.0beta1:
  2212     * Requirements changed to require Python >= 2.3. We recommend that
  2213       you use the latest Python release you can get. The reason we
  2214       dropped 2.2.2 support is because no developer or tester uses this
  2215       old version any more, so incompatibilities crept in the code
  2216       without anybody noticing. Using some recent Python usually is no
  2217       real problem, see there for some hints in case you still run an
  2218       old python: http://moinmoin.wikiwikiweb.de/NewPythonOnOldLinux
  2219       The hint also does apply to other POSIX style operating systems,
  2220       not only Linux.
  2221     * We recommend you use MoinMoin/scripts/cachecleaner.py to clean the
  2222       wiki's cache (see comments at top of the script).
  2223       The cache will automatically be rebuilt (some operations may take
  2224       some time when first being used, e.g. linkto: search, so be patient!).
  2225 
  2226   Config Changes:
  2227      * there is a file CHANGES.config with just the recently changed stuff
  2228        from multiconfig.py
  2229      * new defaults:
  2230        * page_front_page old: u"FrontPage" new: u"HelpOnLanguages"
  2231          please just read the help page in case you see it :)
  2232        * bang_meta old: 0 new: 1
  2233        * show_section_numbers old: 1 new: 0
  2234        * some regexes that used to be [a-z]Uxxxx$ are now [a-z0-9]Uxxxx$
  2235        * navi_bar has no page_front_page as first element any more
  2236      * removed settings and code [new behaviour]:
  2237        * acl_enabled [1]
  2238        * allow_extended_names [1]
  2239        * allow_numeric_entities [1]
  2240        * backtick_meta [1]
  2241        * allow_subpages [1]
  2242      * new settings:
  2243       * cfg.mail_sendmail = "/usr/sbin/sendmail -t -i" can be used if sending
  2244         via SMTP doesn't work on your server. Default is None and that means
  2245         using SMTP.
  2246       * language_default replaces the old default_lang setting (just renamed).
  2247       * language_ignore_browser = True can be used to let moin ignore the
  2248         user's browser settings (e.g. if you run a local-language only wiki
  2249         and your users use misconfigured or buggy browsers often). Default is
  2250         False. Don't forget to set language_default when using this.
  2251  
  2252     * Wiki Editor changes / new WYSIWYG editor
  2253      * fully imported the javascript based LGPLed FCKeditor (many thanks
  2254       to Fred CK for his great work). See http://fckeditor.net/ for details.
  2255      * config for FCKeditor is at wiki/htdocs/applets/moinfckeditor.js
  2256      * added cfg.interwiki_preferred (default = []) to set a list of wikis to
  2257        show at the top of the wiki selection list when inserting an
  2258        interwiki link (just use the same wiki name as in interwiki
  2259        map). If the last list item is None, then the preferred wikis
  2260        will not be followed by the entries of the interwiki map.
  2261     * moved save/preview/... buttons to the top so that they can be
  2262       easily reached
  2263     * reduced edit_rows default to 20 lines
  2264     * Added support for edit by doubleclick in the diff view
  2265 
  2266     * Improved wiki farm support
  2267      * make user files sharable between several wikis in a farm
  2268       * allow/use interwiki subscriptions
  2269       * use interwiki links in page trail
  2270       * save bookmark per wiki name
  2271      * cfg.cookie_domain can be used to set a cookie valid for a complete
  2272        domain (default: None == only for this host). If you use '.domain.tld',
  2273        the cookie will be valid for all hosts *.domain.tld - good for host
  2274        based wiki farms.
  2275      * cfg.cookie_path can be used to set a cookie valid for a wiki farm under
  2276        some base path (default: None == only for this wiki's path). If you use
  2277        '/wikifarm',  the cookie will be valid for all wikis
  2278        server.tld/wikifarm/* - good for path based wiki farms.
  2279      * Interwiki user homepage (if you have MANY users)
  2280        Generated links for usernames are interwiki now, use cfg.user_homewiki
  2281        (default: 'Self') to specify in which wiki the user home pages are
  2282        located. Note: when pointing this to another wiki, the /MoinEditorBackup
  2283        functionality will be disabled.
  2284        @SIG@ also uses interwiki when needed.
  2285 
  2286     * Authentication, ACLs and related
  2287      * Modular authentication: cfg.auth is a list of functions that return a
  2288        valid user or None, use it like this:
  2289            from MoinMoin.auth import http, moin_cookie
  2290            auth = [http, moin_cookie]
  2291      * cfg.auth_http_enabled was removed, please use cfg.auth instead.
  2292      * http auth now supports "Negotiate" scheme, too
  2293      * Added sslclientcert auth method (Apache: untested, Twisted: not
  2294        implemented, IIS: no idea). See MoinMoin/auth.py for details.
  2295        Submit a patch if you have improvements.
  2296      * cfg.superuser is a list of unicode usernames. It is used by some
  2297        critical operations like despam action or PackageInstaller.
  2298      * removed allowed_actions, we now use actions_excluded only and it
  2299        defaults to [], that means, no action is excluded, everything is
  2300        allowed (limited by ACLs). In case of RenamePage and DeletePage,
  2301        this shouldn't be a problem as both can be reverted. In case you
  2302        did not allow attachments, you now have to use:
  2303        actions_excluded = ['AttachFile']
  2304      * special users (All, Known, Trusted) in Groups are now supported
  2305      * MoinMoin.security.autoadmin SecurityPolicy added
  2306        When using this security policy, a user will get admin rights on his
  2307        homepage (where pagename == username) and its sub pages. This is needed
  2308        for the MyPages action, but can also get used for manual ACL changes.
  2309        It can also be used for Project page auto admin functionality, see the
  2310        comments in the script for details.
  2311        Further it can automatically create the user's group pages when the
  2312        user saves his homepage.
  2313      * there is a UpdateGroup xmlrpc call, see MoinMoin/xmlrpc/UpdateGroup.py -
  2314        you can use this to update your *Group pages e.g. when generating them
  2315        from an external group database.
  2316 
  2317     * UserPreferences changes
  2318      * Alias name: is used for display purposes, when "name" is cryptic. It is
  2319        shown e.g. in the title attribute of userid links (displayed when
  2320        moving the mouse over it).
  2321      * "Publish my email (not my wiki homepage) in author info" - use this
  2322        if you don't have a wiki homepage, but if you want to be contactable
  2323        by email. When you edit a page, your email address will be published
  2324        as mailto: link on RecentChanges, at bottom of page (last editor) and
  2325        in page info. If the wiki runs publically on the internet, be careful
  2326        using this or your email address might be collected by spammers.
  2327      * Preferred Editor: whether you want to use the text editor (as in
  2328        previous moin versions), the gui editor (new!) or both (you will get
  2329        2 edit links in that case).
  2330      * a user can add/remove the current page to/from his quicklinks with an
  2331        appropriate action now
  2332      * if cfg.user_email_unique = False, we don't require user's email
  2333        addresses to be unique
  2334      * removed show_fancy_links user preferences setting to simplify code and
  2335        caching. Displaying those icons is now done by CSS styles (see
  2336        common.css). Maybe needs fixing for non-standard themes and RTL langs.
  2337 
  2338     * Markup
  2339      * added strikethrough markup: --(striked through text here)--
  2340      * @ME@ expands to just the plain username (no markup added) on save
  2341     
  2342     * User homepages
  2343      * when a user accesses his own non-existing homepage (pagename ==
  2344        username), the wiki will present the MissingHomePage system page
  2345        content, explaining what a user homepage is good for and offer
  2346        one-click editing it with content loaded from HomepageTemplate
  2347      * creation of homepage subpages is assisted by the MyPages action, which
  2348        offers rw, ro page creation (and a related group) or creation of private
  2349        pages. If you are not in the user_homewiki, you will get redirected
  2350        there first.
  2351 
  2352   Other changes/new features:
  2353     * Added PackageInstaller and unzipping support (see wiki page
  2354       HelpOnActions/AttachFile for further details).  PackageInstaller requires
  2355       the user to be in cfg.superuser list.
  2356      * Added an PackagePages action to simplify the package creation.
  2357     * Added location breadcrumbs - when you are on some subpage, the page
  2358       title parts link to the corresponding parent pages, the last part does
  2359       the usual reverse linking.
  2360     * added WSGI server support, thanks to Anakim Border, see:
  2361       wiki/server/moinwsgi.py (moin as WSGI app, uses the flup WSGI server,
  2362                                see http://www.saddi.com/software/flup/)
  2363       MoinMoin/server/wsgi.py (adaptor code)
  2364     * added a "Despam" action to make de-spamming a wiki easy (mass revert
  2365       bad changes done by a single author or bot). You need to be in
  2366       cfg.superuser to use it.
  2367     * Better diffs with links to anchors to the changed places
  2368     * Enhanced table support in the DocBook formatter.
  2369     * Added 'moin' daemon script, that let you run moin standalone
  2370       server as daemon and control the server with simple command line
  2371       intreface: moin start | stop | restart | kill
  2372     * Add 'restart' option to mointwisted script
  2373     * Add properties option to standalone server config. Allow
  2374       overriding any request property like in other server types.
  2375     * Add support for running behind proxy out of the box with out
  2376       manual url mapping.
  2377       See HelpOnConfiguration/IntegratingWithApache
  2378     * added a WikiBackup action, configure it similar to this:
  2379       data_dir = "/path/to/data"
  2380       backup_include = [data_dir, ] # you can add other dirs here
  2381       backup_users = ["BackupUserName", ] # only TRUSTED users!
  2382       You usually don't need to change the default backup_exclude setting.
  2383       The default backup_include list is EMPTY and so will be your
  2384       backup in case you don't configure it correctly.
  2385       If you put your data_dir there, the backup will contain private
  2386       user data like email addresses and encrypted passwords.
  2387     * Added a SubscribeUser action which allows the administrator to subscribe users to the
  2388       current page.
  2389     * Added thread count to SystemInfo macro.
  2390     * Added Petr's newest patch against the DocBook code. It allows you to use macros (esp. the include macro) in DocBook pages in order to build larger documents.
  2391     * Added a RenderAsDocbook action which redirects to the DocBook formatter.
  2392     * Added searching for wiki-local words lists under <data_dir>/dict/.
  2393       They are used additionally to the global lists in MoinMoin/dict/.
  2394     * moin_dump now also dumps attachments referenced from the page.
  2395       It doesn't dump stuff that is just attached, but not referenced!
  2396     * On RecentChanges we now force the comment to be breakable, this improves
  2397       rendering of over-long words or on narrow browser windows - especially
  2398       for themes with limited content width like rightsidebar.
  2399     * We now have the "new" icon on RecentChanges clickable, just links to the
  2400       page.
  2401     * Print view now shows "interwikiname: pagename" (for show_interwiki = 1).
  2402 
  2403   International support:    
  2404     * mail_from can be now a unicode name-address 
  2405       e.g u'Jürgen wiki <noreply@jhwiki.org>'
  2406 
  2407   Theme changes:
  2408     * logo_string is now should be really only the logo (img).
  2409       If you included your wiki's name in logo_string you maybe want to remove
  2410       it now as it is shown as part of the location display now anyway (if
  2411       you set show_interwiki = 1).
  2412     * You maybe want to remove page_front_page from your navi_bar - we link to
  2413       that page now from the logo and (new, if you set show_interwiki = 1) from
  2414       the interwiki name displayed in location display, so you maybe don't need
  2415       it in navi_bar, too.
  2416     * If you have a custom theme, you should / may:
  2417      * sync modern/css/screen.css #pagelocation #pagetrail stuff to your
  2418        screen.css or pagelocation display (title()) will look strange (like a
  2419        list).
  2420      * remove "#title h1 ..." CSS (or any other CSS assuming h1 is a page
  2421        title and not just a first level heading), it is not used any more.
  2422      * we now render = heading = as <h1> (was <h2> before 1.5),
  2423        == heading == as <h2> (was <h3>), etc.
  2424      * maybe move both title() and trail() to header area, like the builtin
  2425        themes do it.
  2426      * there is a new interwiki() base theme method that optionally (if
  2427        show_interwiki = 1) shows the interwiki name of this wiki and links to
  2428        page_front_page. The css for it is #interwiki.
  2429 
  2430   Developer notes:    
  2431     * Plugin API was improved. When plugin module is missing,
  2432       wikiutil.PluginMissingError is raised. When trying to import a
  2433       missing name from a plugin module, wikiutil.PluginMissingError is
  2434       raised. You must update any code that use wikiutil.importPlugin.
  2435       Errors in your plugin should raise now correct tracebacks. See
  2436       http://moinmoin.wikiwikiweb.de/ErrorHandlingInPlugins
  2437     * pysupport.importName was changed, it does not check for any
  2438       errors when trying to import a name from a module. The calling
  2439       code should check for ImportError or AttributeError. Previous
  2440       code used to hide all errors behind None.
  2441     * Its easier now to customize the editbar by overriding
  2442       editbarItems() in your theme, and returning a list of items to
  2443       display in the editbar. To change a single editbar link, override
  2444       one of the xxxLink methods in your theme.
  2445 
  2446   Internal Changes:
  2447     * request.formatter (html) is available for actions now
  2448     * theme API's d['page_home_page'] is gone (sorry) and replaced by
  2449       d['home_page'] which is either None or tuple (wikiname,pagename).
  2450       It is better to use the base classes function for username/prefs anyway.
  2451     * introduced cfg.hacks for internal use by development, see comment in
  2452       multiconfig.py and file HACKS.
  2453     * added IE7 (v0.9) from Dean Edwards (see http://dean.edwards.name/IE7/) -
  2454       that should fix quite some IE bugs and annoyances (on Win32).
  2455       * for enabling IE7, use cfg.hacks = { 'ie7': True }
  2456     * reducewiki now also copies all attachments (we use that to make underlay
  2457       directory from moinmaster wiki's data_dir)
  2458 
  2459   Fixes:  
  2460     * Fixed a typo in xslt.py which led to a traceback instead of an
  2461       error message in case of disabled XSLT support.
  2462     * Fixed crash in twisted server if twisted.internet.ssl is not
  2463       available.
  2464     * Fixed wrong decoding of query string, enable wiki/?page_name urls
  2465       with non ascii page names.
  2466     * Fixed wrong display of non ascii attachments names in
  2467       RecentChanges and page revision history.
  2468     * Fixed a crash when trying to run standalone server on non posix os.
  2469     * Fixed highlight of misspelled words in Check Spelling action.
  2470     * Fixed case insensitivity problems on darwin (Mac OS X). See
  2471       MoinMoinBugs/MacHfsPlusCaseInsensitive
  2472     * Added RecentChanges (only the english one) to the pages getting
  2473       html_head_index headers
  2474     * text_html cache files written with this code will invalidate themselves
  2475       if they detect to be older than the wikiconfig. Note: you should remove
  2476       all old text_html cache files once after upgrading, they will then be
  2477       rebuilt automatically with the new code.
  2478     * Fixed MoinMoinBugs/12_to_13_mig10_Walk
  2479     * Fixed the word_rule: a word like AAAbbAbb isn't teared into two parts
  2480       any more (was: AA<link>AbbAbb</link>)
  2481     * Fixed false positive InterWiki markup for languages like Finnish.
  2482       InterWiki links are only rendered if the left side has an appropriate
  2483       entry in the interwiki map, otherwise it is rendered as simple text.
  2484     * Fixed unicode error when uploding non-ascii file name using mod
  2485       python.
  2486     * Fixed error handling of wikirpc requests, should give more
  2487       correct errors and prevent no error output and blocking the
  2488       client in some cases.
  2489     * Fixed the "lost password" mail processing. If a user entered some email
  2490       address unknown to the system, he was not notified of this, but just got
  2491       a useless mail with no account data in it. Now the system directly tells
  2492       the user that he entered an unknown email address.
  2493     * Fixed SystemInfo, it now also lists parsers in data/plugin/parser dir.
  2494     * Fix error handling on failure, improved error display
  2495     * Fix error handling when importing plugins or importing modules
  2496       dynamically. The fix is not backward compatible with older plugins.
  2497     * Fix chart action, returns a page with error message when chart
  2498       can not be created.
  2499     * Fixed formatter usage in the ShowSmileys macro.
  2500     * Fixed updating pagelinks cache for [:page:text] or [wiki:Self:page text],
  2501       fixes display of LocalSiteMap and rendering of such links.
  2502     * Hopefully fixed urllib problems (esp. with py 2.4.2, but also before) by
  2503       using our own urllib wrapper that handles encoding/decoding to/from
  2504       unicode, see wikiutil.py. Also made a similar fix for making and parsing
  2505       query strings.
  2506     * Fixed MonthCalendar tooltips when containing special chars like quotes.
  2507     * Added html escaping for diff text for RSS feed with diff=1.
  2508     * The distance between page content beginning and the first = heading =
  2509       was much too much. Fixed.
  2510     
  2511 Version 1.4:
  2512 
  2513     We used that version number for an internal and early development version
  2514     for what will be called moin 2.0 at some time in the future.
  2515     There will never be a 1.4.x release.
  2516 
  2517 
  2518 Version 1.3.5 (2005-08-04, Revision moin--main--1.3--patch-883)
  2519 
  2520 Fixes:
  2521     * small CSS fix for rightsidebar theme
  2522     * applied some Debian patches (thanks to Jonas!):
  2523       * de i18n spelling fixes
  2524       * AttachFile fix, we strip CR in .draw files now
  2525       * when loading spellcheck dictionaries, we want utf-8, but we make
  2526         a 2nd try with iso-8859-1 encoding.
  2527 
  2528 New Features:
  2529 
  2530     * enabled using https with the Twisted server:
  2531       You need to use port 443, have PyOpenSSL (+ ssl libs it depends on)
  2532       installed and have some site key and certificate PEM files configured in
  2533       your twistedmoin.py file:
  2534       sslcert = ('/whereever/cert/sitekey.pem', '/whereever/cert/sitecert.pem')
  2535 
  2536 
  2537 Version 1.3.5rc1 (2005-07-31, Revision moin--main--1.3--patch-865)
  2538 
  2539 Fixes:
  2540 
  2541     * Fixed security bug when acl of deleted page was ignored. See:
  2542       http://moinmoin.wikiwikiweb.de/MoinMoinBugs/ACLIgnoredAfterDelete
  2543     * AttachFile did not display the original filename plus there
  2544       was a confusion in input field labelling ('Rename to').
  2545     * Fixed shortcut link non-existent page detection.
  2546     * Fixed non-working bookmark function on python 2.2.x.
  2547     * Fixed wikirpc getPageInfo call on python 2.2.x.
  2548     * Fixed the failing import of plugins from the data/plugin/
  2549       directories if run in zipimport environments.
  2550     * Fixed traceback which occurred on negated searches.
  2551     * Fixed crash when trying to render error message on twisted, fast
  2552       cgi and modpy.
  2553     * Fixed error message with modpy, used to show wrong errors below
  2554       the real message.
  2555     * Fixed search and goto text fields for better compatibility with
  2556       dark themes and better control through css.
  2557     * Show an edit link if MissingPage is missing and a warning in the
  2558       server log.
  2559     * Fixed missing footer in the editor.
  2560     * Fixed indented (invalid) headings with broken links in table of
  2561       contents.
  2562     * Fixed crash when file name is too long, show standard error message.
  2563     * Save trail file in a safe way, should be enough for normal use.
  2564     * Fixed remember_last_visit user preferences option when show_trail
  2565       is not selected.
  2566     * Fixed the tests for Standalone, Twisted, FastCGI and Mod_Python.
  2567       Run with ?action=test from any page.
  2568     * Fixed rare bug when wrong search type was performed when pasting
  2569       search term in Safari.
  2570     * Fixed crash for custom formatters and dom_xml (which occurred if
  2571       smileys were in the page).
  2572     * Editor opens on double click in pages with single quote in the
  2573       name, like "Ben's Wiki".
  2574     * '/.' in page names are not replaced any more by '/(2e)'
  2575     * Fixed the long delays while saving pages using RequestCLI.
  2576     * Fixed variable expanding for users with non WikiName.
  2577     * Fixed MonthCalendar's calculation of "today" to use the user's
  2578       time zone setting.
  2579     * Fixed moin_dump script, use same configuration options as other
  2580       scripts.
  2581     * Fixed url_mappings to work in proxied setups and sent mails
  2582       again. Also fixed for image links. Thanks to JohannesBerg.
  2583     * Fixed page shown after saving a drawing (esp. when saved from a
  2584       sub page). Fixed help link for drawings.
  2585     * Fixed mig10 script to run on Python < 2.3.
  2586     * The twisted server defaulted to a socket timeout of 12 hours!
  2587       We reduced that to a more sane 10 minutes, that should still be more
  2588       than enough. This fixed the "too many open files" problem we
  2589       encountered quite often recently. Thanks to Helmut Grohne!
  2590 
  2591 Other Changes:
  2592 
  2593     * Added {hu} flag.
  2594     * Added cz, pt and pt-br i18n.
  2595     * We send a 404 http status code for nonexisting wiki pages now,
  2596       maybe this will repell some search engines from requesting gone
  2597       pages again and again. The wiki user still sees the MissingPage
  2598       wiki stuff, so a user usually won't notice this change.
  2599     * Return 500 error code on failure and exceptions.
  2600     * Added some more bot / leech tool user agent strings.
  2601     * Prevent page floating elements from floating out of the page over
  2602       the footer, in modern, rightsidebar and classic themes.
  2603     * Encode URLs in a safer way
  2604     * We allow usernames with ' character in them now (like Tim O'Brian).
  2605     * Added support for the new security flags in docutils 0.3.9.
  2606     * @MAILTO@ expands now to safer [[MailTo()]] macro.
  2607     * Clarified and i18ned lost password mails.
  2608     * Added 'TitleIndex' and 'SiteNavigation' (+ translation) to the
  2609       list of pages that use html_head_index (so that robots
  2610       "index,follow").  Please make sure to have either FindPage,
  2611       TitleIndex or SiteNavigation in your navi_bar or in your
  2612       page_front_page content if you want search engines to find all
  2613       your pages.
  2614     * Make it possible to send account data when being logged in (for
  2615       future reference or whatever purpose).
  2616     * Speed up when running with persistent servers, the wiki config
  2617       does only get loaded once and misc. stuff is being cached between
  2618       requests now.
  2619     * The unit tests are disabled when using multi threading, because
  2620       the wiki configuration is shared between diffrent threads.
  2621     * The main code path (using standalone server) of MoinMoin runs on
  2622       PyPy now.
  2623     * Formatters do automatically transform HTML to plain text if they are
  2624       called with raw HTML code.
  2625     * Using larger socket backlog on Standalone and FastCGI servers
  2626       should be more reliable on high load.
  2627     * We now strip leading path from attachments uploaded by IE (this is
  2628       a bug in IE, not in MoinMoin). Better use a sane browser, like Firefox.
  2629     * added "teleport" to the user agent blacklist
  2630 
  2631 New Features:
  2632 
  2633     * Integrated Lupy indexer for better search performance. It is disabled
  2634       by default as of 1.3.5 as it still has known issues.
  2635       See multiconfig.py if you want to test it.
  2636     * Integrated MonthCalendar 2.1, with some new features:
  2637       * a mouseover bubble that shows first level headlines of the linked
  2638         day page
  2639       * all calendars with same pagename move when using cal navigation,
  2640         thanks to Oliver Graf
  2641       * included AnnualMonthlyCalendar patch of Jonathan Dietrich
  2642         (use [[MonthCalendar(Yearly,,,+1,,6,1)]] syntax for birthdays and
  2643         other annually repeating stuff)
  2644       Make sure you remove old MonthCalendar.* from data/plugin/macro so that
  2645       moin will use the new code in MoinMoin/macro/MonthCalendar.py.
  2646       Maybe also clear the text_html cache.
  2647     * Added the new XSLT parser and the DocBook parser. This should increase
  2648       the 4suite compatiblity. See HelpOnXmlPages for details.
  2649       It now should run on 4suite 1.0a4 and 1.0b1. Thanks to Henry Ho!
  2650     * Added the DocBook formatter. This will let you generate DocBook markup
  2651       by writing simple wiki pages. It needs PyXML.
  2652     * It is now possible to customize parts of the UserPreferences page in
  2653       your wikiconfig (changing defaults, disabling fields, removing fields):
  2654       * Use user_checkbox_* for the checkboxes.
  2655       * Use user_form_* for other fields.
  2656       * See MoinMoin/multiconfig.py for the built-in defaults.
  2657     * New standalone server classes: ThreadPoolServer using pool of
  2658       threads, ThreadingServer with thread limit and ForkingServer.
  2659     * New standalone server configuration options: serverClass,
  2660       threadLimit, requestQueueSize.
  2661     * Use "PythonOption Location" in mod_python setup to solve script_name
  2662       problems.
  2663 
  2664 Developer notes:
  2665     
  2666     * Theme can now override maxPagenameLength() method to control page
  2667       name shortening.
  2668     * A search Match now provides access to the full re match via
  2669       the re_match attribute (use to access groups of the match)
  2670     * Underlay is not managed by arch any more. The tree contains an
  2671       underlay tarball, and you should untar after you update from main.
  2672     * "make update-underlay" will untar underlay
  2673     * "make merge" will star-merge main into your tree
  2674     * "make test" will now create and run in a fresh testwiki instace
  2675     * "make clean" options added
  2676     * _tests module does not have a global request any more. To refer to
  2677       the current request in a test, use self.request.
  2678     * _tests.TestConfig class require a request in the constructor.
  2679     * "python tests/runtests.py test_module" will run only test_module
  2680     * request.cfg stays between requests (for persistent servers).
  2681 
  2682 
  2683 Version 1.3.4 (2005-03-13, Revision moin--main--1.3--patch-666)
  2684 
  2685 Fixes:
  2686 
  2687     * Fixed ACL check in LikePages macro that caused links to unreadable 
  2688       pages to show.
  2689     * Fixed ACL check in newpage action.
  2690     * Fixed a security problem when admin policy defined in a custom
  2691       SecurityPolicy class was ignored.
  2692     * Fixed ACL check in action=show so that a user who may not read a page
  2693       also can't find out WHEN the protected page was updated.
  2694     * Workaround on Windows 95, 98, ME in order to clear the dircache.
  2695       This fixes some bugs related to an outdated page list and newly created
  2696       pages that did not appear immediately.
  2697     * Fixed decoding issues of page names on Windows, finally.
  2698       http://moinmoin.wikiwikiweb.de/MoinMoinBugs/BrokenUmlautsInLinksIn131
  2699     * Fixed traceback on IIS.
  2700       http://moinmoin.wikiwikiweb.de/MoinMoinBugs/request%2epy_broken_on_IIS
  2701     * Fixed wikirpc for standalone server.
  2702     * Other fixes (encoding and str/unicode data type related) to wikirpc
  2703       server, fixing some non-ascii issues hopefully.
  2704     * Fixed broken query strings for Standalone installations.
  2705     * Fixed backlinks - the result did not always show all links, often it 
  2706       showed too many irrelevant matches (MoinMoinBugs/BacklinksAreBroken).
  2707     * Fixed the acceptance of the show_hosts setting. Now you should be able
  2708       to hide any IP or host name from being published by MoinMoin by enabling
  2709       this option.
  2710     * Fixed wrong line endings on email messages.
  2711     * Fixed MoinMoinBugs/StandaloneUnquotesTooMuch.
  2712     * Fixed crash when trail file is missing.
  2713     * Fixed a traceback when searching for single ( or ).
  2714     * Added mig10 script to fix crashes with uncoverted edit-locks and file
  2715       attachments. Just use it as you did with mig1..mig9 before.
  2716     * Added mig11 script to add __init__.py files to data/plugin (and below).
  2717     * added some fixes for the xslt parser (thanks to fanbanlo), it might be
  2718       still broken, but someone with deeper knowledge about xslt should fix it.
  2719     * Replaced image link with W3C's "html 4.01 compliance" icon by a simple
  2720       text link to avoid https: or config trouble.
  2721     * Catch OverflowError backtrace when illegal date strings (e.g. <1970 or
  2722       >2038) are fed to moinmoin's time routines. It will just output current
  2723       date / time in those cases.
  2724     * UserPreferences now also set a date_fmt preference and Date macro
  2725       honours it. You may have to reset your UserPreferences value for that.
  2726     * Fixed free parent and subpage links in interwiki notation.
  2727       http://moinmoin.wikiwikiweb.de/MoinMoinBugs/FreeParentLinksAreBroken
  2728     * Fixed a traceback for invalid ReST markup.
  2729     * Fixed UnicodeError in SystemAdmin's Attachment Browser.
  2730 
  2731 Other Changes:
  2732 
  2733     * Optimized the IRC parser.
  2734     * Support for zipimport of the MoinMoin package. This allows you to use
  2735       py2exe and similar programs.
  2736     * Show the editor's name in the mail subject.
  2737     * Added the pragmas description and keywords. They will add <meta> headers
  2738       if used.
  2739     * Added MoinMoin/scripts/xmlrpc-tools/putPageTest.py example script, useful
  2740       as a starting point for importing data using wiki xmlrpc.
  2741     * Optimised display on Opera browser.
  2742 
  2743 New features:
  2744 
  2745     * The search modifier "linkto:" was introduced. You can use it to search
  2746       for links.
  2747     * The NewPage macro now can take a PageTemplate parameter, see HelpOnMacros.
  2748     * New config settings (so you don't need to edit wikirpc.py any more):
  2749       xmlrpc_putpage_enabled = 0 (if 1, enables writing to arbitrary page names)
  2750       xmlrpc_putpage_trusted_only = 1 (if 0, doesn't require users to be
  2751        authenticated by http auth - DANGEROUS, DO NOT SET TO 0!!!)
  2752     * Added support for Digest and NTLM authentication with CGI (e.g. if you
  2753       use those Apache modules)
  2754     * The datetime string accepted by Date and DateTime macros was extended to
  2755       accept a timezone specification, so now +/-HHMM is also valid, e.g.:
  2756       2005-03-06T15:15:57Z (UTC, same as +0000)
  2757       2005-03-06T15:15:57+0000 (UTC)
  2758       2005-03-06T16:15:57+0100 (same time given as local time for time zone
  2759                                 with offset +0100, that is CET, e.g. Germany)
  2760       2005-03-06T10:15:57-0500 (same time given as local time for time zone
  2761                                 with offset -0500, EST, US Eastern Std. Time)
  2762       The values given as macro argument will be transformed to UTC internally
  2763       and then adapted again according to viewing user's UserPreferences, so
  2764       the user will see the same moment in time but shown in his local time
  2765       zone's time (at least if he set his UserPreferences correctly and didn't
  2766       forget changing them twice a year for DST and non-DST).
  2767     * Readded (now optional) editlink footer to Include macro. Add
  2768       ',editlink' to call to enable this.
  2769     * star "smileys" e.g. {*}{*}{*}{o}{o}
  2770 
  2771 
  2772 Version 1.3.3 (2005-01-24, Revision moin--main--1.3--patch-595)
  2773 
  2774 Fixes:
  2775 
  2776     * fixed ACL security problem in search
  2777     * fix for IIS with CGI allowing page names that contain chars
  2778       that are not in the system code page
  2779     * fixed MoinEditorBackup revisions to start with 1 now
  2780     * improved page locking ('current' file)
  2781     * Unittests (normally shown at end of action=test output) are currently
  2782       disabled for everything except CGI, because they only work reliably with
  2783       CGI, giving wrong results for other request methods.
  2784 
  2785 
  2786 Version 1.3.2 (2005-01-23, Revision moin--main--1.3--patch-587)
  2787 
  2788 Fixes:
  2789 
  2790     * ACL bugfix for deleted pages with ACL protection.
  2791     * ACL bugfix for "Default" acl.
  2792     * Fixed updating of groups and dicts
  2793     * Python 2.2.x related fixes (worked on 2.3+)
  2794       * Fixed traceback in RecentChanges.
  2795       * Fixed traceback with links browser.
  2796     * Fixed 0 revision display in 'Show changes'.
  2797     * Fixed traceback in Antispam which occurred when it could not connect
  2798       to MoinMaster. Log the errors to stderr or error.log.
  2799     * Fixed bug in Page init (no date, use rev). Fixes problem with
  2800       #deprecated PI.
  2801     * Fixed empty lists in empty search results.
  2802     * Cosmetic fix for modern theme (when viewed with Internet Explorer).
  2803     * Fixed migration 9 script, do not drop newline, do not drop error.log, 
  2804       note about missing error.log.
  2805     * Fixed repair_language.py script, keep ending newline on revisions.
  2806     * Show headings and macro content in correct direction when mixing content 
  2807       in several directions in the same page and using caching.
  2808     * Fixed bug in standalone re farmconfig.
  2809     * Fixed DOS condition in antispam code.
  2810     * Use smaller margin in print mode to get better results with 
  2811       Mozilla/Firefox.
  2812     * Fixed some user input escaping issues.
  2813     * Fixed a problem when one wiki plugin override other wikis plugins in 
  2814       same farm.
  2815     * Fixed some broken tests.
  2816     * Fixed recursive include in pstats.
  2817     * Fixed bug in standalone - HTTP result code was 200 even when the access
  2818       was forbidden.
  2819     * Fixed traceback when trying to login with non-ascii password.
  2820     * Fixed traceback when xml is not available, reported on Python 2.2.?
  2821     * Fixed slideshow to show slides in sorted order again.
  2822     * Fixed serving multiple wikis on same IP/different ports with twisted and
  2823       farmconfig.
  2824     * It is possible to run with data_underlay_dir = None for special
  2825       application, but be aware that the wiki won't be usable unless you have
  2826       at least some of the system pages from underlay/ available.
  2827     * Files with Unicode characters in their filename are possible now.
  2828     * Bugfix for broken [:page#anchor:text] links.
  2829     * Workaround an instability of the gdchart module leading to
  2830       stalled servers etc.
  2831     * Fixed some event-log decoding issues that affect charts rendering.
  2832 
  2833 Other changes:
  2834 
  2835     * Major speed improvement over 1.3.1. Many times faster title search,
  2836       creating new page, opening page editor and any operation that list pages.
  2837       See http://moinmoin.wikiwikiweb.de/MoinBenchmarks
  2838     * Improved README.migration.
  2839     * Cleaner design for login/register interface, login is always the default
  2840       button when the user click Enter.
  2841     * If there are problems found in the configuration, log the error
  2842       and display helpful error messages in the browser.
  2843     * More forgiving unicode configuration policy, you must use the u'string' 
  2844       format only for unicode values.
  2845     * Added profiling to CGI.
  2846     * The content of farmconfig.py is similar to wikiconfig.py now.
  2847     * Unexpected errors while loading cache files are logged.
  2848     * i18n for icon ALT tags.
  2849     * Include request initialization code in the profile in standalone server.
  2850     * When creating new theme, style sheets are inherited correctly, no need
  2851       to override style sheets just to get them working.
  2852     * Many times faster plugin system. Typical pages are about 35% faster, 
  2853       pages with many plugins can be many times faster. 
  2854     * Spiders are allowed to fetch attachments.
  2855     * Old user files containing password hash encoded in pre 1.3 charset
  2856       are auto repaired on first login.
  2857     * data_dir defaults to './data', underlay_data_dir to './underlay' now.
  2858       It is a good idea to replace those by absolute pathes in wikiconfig.py.
  2859     * Renamed "Refresh" to "Delete Cache" - it was misused by users. The action 
  2860       was also moved into the action menu in the modern and rightsidebar themes.
  2861     * Added a workaround for TableOfContents missing some links by making it
  2862       uncacheable via a "time" dependency.
  2863     * Removed interwiki icon and title attribute for wiki:Self:... links.
  2864     * Unittests (normally shown at end of action=test output) are currently
  2865       disabled because they worked unreliably, giving wrong results sometimes.
  2866 
  2867 New features:
  2868 
  2869     * Create new pages easily using configurable interface and page templates 
  2870       with the new NewPage macro.
  2871     * ReStructuredText (rst) support is built-in now. See HelpOnParsers.
  2872     * New experimental feature in mointwisted.py - each interface may 
  2873       specify a port: '12.34.56.78:80'. Without a port, the port option
  2874       is used.
  2875 
  2876 API changes:
  2877 
  2878     * For a complete list of changes, see MoinMoin:ApiChanges.
  2879     * wikiutil.importPlugin's first argument is now a wiki config instance 
  2880       (request.cfg) and there is no path keyword.
  2881     * Wiki plugins always override MoinMoin plugins. wikiutil.importPlugin
  2882       implements this override.
  2883     * util.pysupport.importName does not accept path - you should call 
  2884       it with correct module name, e.g 'wikiconfig.plugin.parser.wiki' for 
  2885       wiki plugins, or 'MoinMoin.parser.wiki'. 
  2886     * wikiutil.extensionPlugin was renamed to wikiPlugins and it gets config 
  2887       instance instead of path.
  2888     * New function wikiutil.importWikiPlugin used to import wiki plugins 
  2889       using a cache in a thread safe way.
  2890     * New config option config.use_threads is used to activate thread 
  2891       safe code.
  2892     * New keyword arguments for getPageList, enable 10X faster operation
  2893       for common cases by controlling page filtering.
  2894     * New up to 100X times faster getPageCount
  2895 
  2896 
  2897 Version 1.3.1 (2004-12-13, Revision moin--main--1.3--patch-434)
  2898 
  2899 Fixes:
  2900 
  2901     * Fixed "Error Cyclic usage" crash when user had Italian (it), Korean
  2902       (ko), Serbian (sr) or Vietnamese (vi) as user interface language.
  2903     * Fall back to en (instead of crashing) when user uses a language moin
  2904       does not support / does not support any more (like pt,sv,fi,sr).
  2905     * In 1.3.0, people accidentally put iso-8859-1 chars into wiki configs,
  2906       but those where expected to be pure utf-8 and thus it crashed.
  2907       Fixed by using unicode strings (varname = u'whatever'), a matching
  2908       encoding setting (see top of script comment) and, when decoding strings,
  2909       using decode to ASCII with replace mode (this replaces non-ASCII chars,
  2910       but at least it won't crash - and you get a warning to better use
  2911       Unicode strings).
  2912     * Fixed long time broken table formatting. ||<style="see css spec" a||b||
  2913       Now even generates valid HTML! The old markup for align, valign, width,
  2914       bgcolor still works, but synthesizes style attribute data.
  2915     * SystemAdmin macro shows attachments of ALL pages now.
  2916     * Users without write acl rights will be able to see attachments again and
  2917       also have AttachFile action in menu.
  2918     * Fixed wrong match count in search results, find all matches in page 
  2919       titles, show all matches in contents in some rare cases.
  2920     * Run about 200% faster with long running processes (standalone, Twisted), 
  2921       about 20% faster with cgi, by better internal data handling in wikidicts.
  2922     * On SF, the dict files use utf-8 encoding now. We included them also in
  2923       distribution, see contrib/dict/.
  2924     * Fixed permissions to shared template stuff.
  2925     * Speeded up search, fixed wrong match counts.
  2926     * Speeded up internal data handling (wikidicts).
  2927     * Fixed rare unicode error after deleting a page (reported only on SuSE
  2928       Linux 9.0 / Python 2.3.0).
  2929     * Fixed file permissions of files in the data dir.  
  2930     * Fixed some cosmetic problems in migration scripts and use sys.path.insert
  2931       to get latest moin code when executing them.
  2932 
  2933 Other Changes:
  2934 
  2935     * Improved docs, system and help pages.
  2936     * Updated translation files.
  2937 
  2938 Known Bugs:
  2939 
  2940     * Internet Explorer renders our HTML/CSS in a suboptimal way.
  2941       (MoinMoin: href="http://moinmo.in/MoinMoinBugs/InternetExplorer)">MoinMoinBugs/InternetExplorer)
  2942       Workaround: use a non-broken browser like FireFox / Mozilla.
  2943       Fixed in MoinMoin 1.3.2.
  2944     * Passwords using non-ascii do not work.
  2945       (MoinMoin: href="http://moinmo.in/MoinMoinBugs/NonAsciiPasswordsBroken)">MoinMoinBugs/NonAsciiPasswordsBroken)
  2946     * The TOC macro is broken partly.

  2952 Version 1.3.0 (2004-12-06, Revision moin--main--1.3--patch-400)
  2953 
  2954     As you see from the length of the 1.3 changes below, 1.3 is a major(!)
  2955     upgrade. We could have also named it "2.0", but we decided against.
  2956     So take the time for reading the informations thoroughly and do the
  2957     migration exactly as we tell you - this is no 5 minutes upgrade!
  2958 
  2959     !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  2960     !!! We heavily changed configuration, data encoding, dir layout:    !!!
  2961     !!!  * the default encoding changed to utf-8.                       !!!
  2962     !!!  * also, we changed the escaping for special chars to %XX%YY in !!!
  2963     !!!    URL and (xxyy) in file system.                               !!!
  2964     !!!  * layout of data dir changed completely                        !!!
  2965     !!! If you upgrade an existing wiki, you must run the migration     !!!
  2966     !!! scripts or you will get data corruption or other problems.      !!!
  2967     !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  2968 
  2969     HINT: Upgrading your wiki - critical information
  2970 
  2971       If you are NOT starting from scratch, you MUST convert your existing
  2972       data - see README.migration for details.
  2973 
  2974       If you use ##language: xx comments on your OWN pages, you should also run
  2975       repair_language script. Not needed for help/system pages as we already
  2976       have done that for you.
  2977 
  2978       MoinMoin uses Unicode internally now (UCS-2 with 16 bits or UCS-4 with
  2979       32 bits, depending on your Python installation). The encoding used
  2980       for page files and html output is set by config.charset.
  2981 
  2982       Moin 1.3 uses utf-8 encoding only, there is NO SUPPORT for using a
  2983       charset different from utf-8 with 1.3. If you try, you are on your own.
  2984 
  2985     Directory layout
  2986 
  2987       Directory layout was heavily changed. Each page now is a directory,
  2988       containing page revisions, attachments, cache files and edit-log.
  2989       
  2990       You can delete a page or move a page from one wiki to another
  2991       easily. Look at the wiki/data directory to see.
  2992       
  2993       Example:
  2994         old: data/text/FrontPage
  2995         new: data/pages/FrontPage/revisions/00000042
  2996              data/pages/FrontPage/current (contains: 00000042)
  2997         old: data/backup/FrontPage.xxxxxxxx
  2998         new: data/pages/FrontPage/revisions/00000023
  2999 
  3000       For cleaning up cache files, use MoinMoin/scripts/cachecleaner.py 
  3001       (see comments in script).
  3002 
  3003    Python / Libs
  3004       
  3005       * For using RSS, you need to have PyXML installed:
  3006         Python 2.4*   -> PyXML 0.8.4 (cvs version)
  3007         Python 2.3.x  -> PyXML 0.8.3
  3008         Python 2.2.2+ -> ???
  3009         This will also make "Live Bookmarks" of Mozilla Firefox working.
  3010         New: if you don't have PyXML installed, the RSS icon on RecentChanges
  3011         will not be displayed any more. Python with no PyXML installed
  3012         generates invalid RSS XML.
  3013 
  3014    Page names handling
  3015 
  3016       * Handling of special characters in file names changed from _xx format
  3017         to (xx...) format.
  3018       * In URLs, moin now uses %xx%yy quoting, (because this is supported by 
  3019         browsers), and sub pages use "/" instead of the ugly "_2f".
  3020       * Underscore character "_" is used now as a space character " " both 
  3021         in file names and URLs. " " and "_" will be handled equivalent at most
  3022         places in the future (represented as "_", rendered as " ").
  3023       * To prevent wiki abuse and user typing errors, page names are normalized 
  3024         in URLs, query strings, the "go" box and when renaming pages. This 
  3025         include leading, trailing and multiple slashes and white space. Certain 
  3026         invisible unicode characters are removed from page names.
  3027       * Group page names are restricted even more, any non unicode alpha-numeric
  3028         character is removed. This is done to enable changing acl syntax in 
  3029         the future. The restriction might be loosen on future versions.
  3030       * You can edit config.page_invalid_chars_regex to control which characters
  3031         are allowed in page names (Changing it is not supported).
  3032       * When you enter page name, it is normalized and you are redirected to
  3033         the normalized page, or if nothing left (e.g '/////'), to FrontPage.
  3034       * When renaming a page to a name that can be normalized to an empty string,
  3035         the new page name will be "EmptyName" and the user will not get an
  3036         error message.
  3037        
  3038    Underlay directory
  3039 
  3040      * Pages (especially system and help pages) are now located in an underlay
  3041        directory (data_underlay_dir). You will see the pages there if they are
  3042        NOT covered (overlayed) by a page in the normal pages directory
  3043        (as set using data_dir).
  3044        MAKE SURE THAT data_underlay_dir IS CORRECT OR YOU WILL SEE MANY EMPTY
  3045        PAGES ONLY IN A NEW WIKI.
  3046      * If you edit a page that is shown from underlay directory, it will be
  3047        copied to the normal page directory on save (copy-on-write).
  3048      * You can use one copy of the underlay directory shared by many
  3049        wiki instances. Each wiki will then have only your local, self-made
  3050        wiki pages in its data directory, and only system and help pages in the
  3051        single, shared underlay directory - this simplifies upgrades a lot.
  3052      * It is recommended to keep your underlay system and help pages immutable
  3053        using acl, so you can upgrade your wiki easily. The default help and
  3054        system pages already have those ACLs (using MoinPagesEditorGroup).
  3055      * Do not forget to remove your old help and system pages after migrating
  3056        your wiki. We don't provide a script for that as that would be
  3057        dangerous for edited pages. Just use some file manager (e.g. mc) to
  3058        clean the data/pages/ directory. As soon as you have removed the
  3059        system pages there, you will see the new pages in the underlay dir.
  3060        See the EditedSystemPages page for a list of pages that exist in both
  3061        data and underlay directory (use this page as admin!).
  3062 
  3063        When updating from 1.2 or lower to 1.3 or higher, you will want to
  3064        clean out the copies of the system pages in your {{{wiki/data}}}
  3065        directory. All of these pages will now reside in the underlay
  3066        directory. If you have system pages from 1.2 or lower in your
  3067        wiki/data/ directory, they will overshadow the more up-to-date
  3068        documentation. This can be done using the following manual procedure:
  3069        1. You have just converted from 1.2 or lower to post-1.3.
  3070        2. Go to your wiki's EditedSystemPages.
  3071        3. Find all the pages that are MoinMoin system or help pages. You will
  3072           know if it is one of those pages because it is not your page.
  3073        4. Check if it is okay to delete by either:
  3074           1. Using the this page "info" link and check the Revision History to
  3075              see if it is greater than 1. If so, there are modifications, so do
  3076              not delete the page and evaluate the modifications to see if they
  3077              are necessary.
  3078           2. Using your file browser (Windows Explorer, etc) to go to your
  3079              wiki/data/<<systemPage>>/revisions/ directory and to see if there
  3080              are no modifications. If there are, do not delete the page and
  3081              evaluate the modifications to see if they are necessary.
  3082        5. Delete that wiki/data/<<systemPage>> using your file browser.
  3083 
  3084     Multiple languages
  3085 
  3086       * New file name quoting method allow 50% longer page names in languages
  3087         that use more than one byte per character, like Hebrew, Korean etc.
  3088       * Configuration file uses 'utf-8' encoding now. Certain values that are
  3089         marked with [Unicode] can use any character in your language. Examples 
  3090         are page names in navi_bar, page types regular expressions and site name.
  3091       * For configuration examples adopted to your language, check ConfigMarket 
  3092         in the MoinMoin wiki.
  3093       * The system and help pages that come with moin are now in utf-8.
  3094       * MissingPage system page localized, should display in your language.
  3095       * We did many i18n (translation) updates.
  3096       * CSS file use utf-8 encoding. User css is also expected to be utf-8.
  3097         This is relevant only if you use non-ASCII values in the CSS file.
  3098       * config.upperletters and config.lowerletters were removed.
  3099         We now use a pre-made ucs-2 spanning set and you usually don't have to
  3100         change it. See MoinMoin/util/chartypes.py if you're interested.
  3101       * ACL works with any user name or group name in any language, even names 
  3102         with spaces.
  3103       * Now you can use any charset in config.charset. Note: only utf-8 is 
  3104         a supported configuration!
  3105       * Improved url handling, now creating pages directly from the browser 
  3106         url box with non-ascii names works in most cases, even when 
  3107         config.charset is not utf-8.
  3108       * When using non-utf-8 config.charset, characters in URLs that does
  3109         fit in the charsets are replaced with "?" (instead of crashing).
  3110       * All themes and most macros and actions are Right to Left friendly.
  3111         Full RTL support planned for 1.3 release.
  3112       * If page language is specified with #language processing instruction
  3113         the page is displayed in the correct direction. Pages without
  3114         language are displayed using the wiki default_lang.
  3115 
  3116     Multiple configurations
  3117 
  3118       * You can run multiple wikis from the same wiki directory or server. 
  3119         For example, you can run one Twisted server that serve multiple wikis, 
  3120         instead of running multiple servers. Samples of the new configuration
  3121         are supplied in wiki/config/*.
  3122       * You can't just use your old moin_config.py file. It is now called
  3123         wikiconfig.py and the config variables now have to be in a class
  3124         "Config" and that class must inherit from
  3125         MoinMoin.multiconfig.DefaultConfig - see the provided wikiconfig.py
  3126         sample for details.
  3127         This is very useful, e.g. you could derive a GermanConfig from
  3128         DefaultConfig. After that, you can derive configs for wikiA and wikiB
  3129         from that GermanConfig.
  3130       * farmconfig.py contains a mapping attribute called "wikis" with pairs of
  3131         wikiconfig module name and regular expression. The regular expression
  3132         is matched against the URL of the request and the first matching entry
  3133         determines the config module to be imported by MoinMoin.
  3134       * If you use farmconfig.py's "wikis" mapping, then any wiki has a private
  3135         config module, named after the wiki - e.g. wiki named moinmoin would
  3136         use moinmoin.py.
  3137       * If you only have a single wiki, you do not need farmconfig.py. just make 
  3138         a wikiconfig.py and it will be used no matter what URL is requested. 
  3139       * There is one common global "config" that holds sitewide settings (like
  3140         umask or charset) - you do not need to change settings there.
  3141         This file is located in the MoinMoin code: MoinMoin/config.py.
  3142       
  3143     General configuration
  3144 
  3145       * SecurityPolicy now uses "write" instead of "edit" (so it is may.write
  3146         now). This is to get it in sync with ACLs.
  3147       * SecurityPolicy now automatically can use everything in acl_rights_valid.
  3148       * There is a new config option "config_check_enabled". It will warn about
  3149         any unknown variable name (probably typo) to stderr or error.log. 
  3150         If something doesn't work at all and changing the config does no 
  3151         difference, switch it on and look at the error message. 
  3152       * The sample config file comes with config_check_enabled = 1. If you 
  3153         introduce additional variables yourself, you definitely want to switch 
  3154         that check off or it will fill your log.
  3155       * If you define "page_front_page" variable, this name will show in the 
  3156         navigation bar now, instead of the default "FrontPage".
  3157 
  3158     New search engine
  3159 
  3160      * Full text and title search do support multiple search terms now - 
  3161        see HelpOnSearching for details.
  3162      * Regular expressions are still supported but have to be turned on per
  3163        search term. Search terms in macros using regular expressions will have
  3164        to be fixed.
  3165      * The URL interface of the search engine has also changed. Links that 
  3166        point directly to search actions may be broken.
  3167 
  3168     User names
  3169 
  3170       * User names can not use group names, even if ACLs are not enabled.
  3171         This will prevent error later, if you start to use acl in the future
  3172         (acl is going to be mandatory in 1.5).
  3173       * User names are not restricted any more to only CamelCase. 
  3174       * To prevent imposing as other users, leading, trailing and multiple 
  3175         whitespace in user names is not allowed. Only Unicode alpha numeric 
  3176         characters are allowed, with optional one space character between 
  3177         words.
  3178       * When a user name with a group name or "bad" name is trying to 
  3179         access the wiki, he is redirected to the UserPreferences page and 
  3180         asked to create a new account.
  3181       * When trying to login or create a new account with a bad name, 
  3182         correct error message is displayed in all cases.   
  3183 
  3184     CGI
  3185 
  3186       * You can not use your old moin.cgi file, as we removed cgimain.py 
  3187         (was deprecated since 1.2). Copy the new file from the server dir.     
  3188 
  3189     Moin servers - Twisted and standalone
  3190 
  3191       * Configuration self checking on startup. Will raise an error in case
  3192         of bad configuration or non-accessible directories.
  3193       * Both use shorter and identical configuration options.
  3194       * Server scripts contain detailed comments and examples.
  3195       * Configuration defaults changed to fit most users.
  3196       * There is memory profiler option for debugging, switched off by default.
  3197       * If you perform a standard install, server scripts should run out
  3198         of the box or with minimal change.
  3199 
  3200     Twisted server
  3201 
  3202       * All code moved into the new server package, the server script
  3203         contains only configuration options.
  3204       * Listen to more than one interface with "interfaces" list.
  3205       * Code updated to new Twisted API.
  3206       * Use mointwisted script to start and stop the server, using 
  3207         "mointwisted start" and "mointwisted stop".
  3208       * The Twisted server runs as daemon by default.
  3209       * All moin Twisted files are called now mointwisted instead of 
  3210         moin_twisted.
  3211       * Fixed getting username from Twisted request (http auth)
  3212 
  3213     Standalone server
  3214 
  3215       * Configuration moved from moin_config.py to moin.py.
  3216       * If run as root, you can set both user and group for the server.
  3217       * Can use logfile instead of logging to stderr.
  3218       * Fixed missing unquoting of query string (caused problems in rare cases).
  3219 
  3220     mod_python server
  3221 
  3222      * moin_modpy server files renamed to moinmodpy.
  3223 
  3224     Wiki Markup
  3225 
  3226      * '''strong''', ''em'' and __underline__ have now paragraph scope. You can
  3227        set these attributes on words level. For multiple paragraphs, wrap each 
  3228        with needed markup.
  3229      * If you leave unclosed ''', '' and __  markup, its is closed when the 
  3230        paragraph ends.
  3231 
  3232     User interface
  3233 
  3234      * Due to many changes in CSS files, the wiki may look "broken" until
  3235        your reload once or twice, or empty your browser cache.
  3236      * The "Send mail notification" checkbox is replaced by "Trivial change"
  3237        checkbox. The default behavior did not change - regular edit is not
  3238        a trivial change, and mail will be sent to subscribes. If you check
  3239        trivial change, mail will be sent only to users who selected to 
  3240        get trivial changes in their user preferences.
  3241      * New theme "modern" has been added, and used as default theme. 
  3242      * classic and rightsidebar improved.
  3243      * viewonly theme removed, as any theme can be use now as viewonly
  3244        by using #acl All:read in the wikiconfig.
  3245      * All themes use new navibar, displaying both wiki links, user links
  3246        and the current page.
  3247      * navibar and pagetrail use now shortened page names, so very long
  3248        names does not break the interface visually.
  3249      * All themes have improved search interface at the top of the window.
  3250      * Only avaiable actions are displayed, so most situations when a user
  3251        try to do something he can't do are prevented.
  3252      * When creating a new page, no action is available until the page 
  3253        is created. You can't attach files to non-existing page any more.
  3254      * Non registered users get a "login" link. Registered uses get
  3255        "username" link to their home page, and "user preferences" link.
  3256      * Messages more clear using bold type, designed by css.
  3257      * Few useless messages removed (but there are many more)
  3258      * Default wiki logo uses the wiki name instead of the MoinMoin troll 
  3259        logo.
  3260 
  3261     Other fixes and changes
  3262     
  3263      * Most generated html code is valid "html 4 strict". There are still
  3264        some problems that still have to be fixed, mainly macros, table
  3265        attributes, and inline markup crossing (<a><b></a></b>).
  3266      * WantedPages can include and exclude system pages, which makes it 
  3267        much more useful.
  3268      * Fixed a bug in TitleIndex where not all system pages are excluded.    
  3269      * RenamePage action now renames everything, including backups, page
  3270        history, attachments. It does not change toplevel editlog, though.
  3271        After you rename a page, you are redirected to the new page.
  3272      * Syntax colorization supports more languages (Java, C++, Pascal)
  3273      * Inline: display of attachments was extended. A Parser now knows which
  3274        extensions it can handle.
  3275      * TableOfContents and Include macros now cooperate a bit better. There
  3276        are still problems with multiple Includes of the same page.
  3277      * Excluded actions at bottom of page are not displayed any more.   
  3278      * Editor: removed the columns size setting, just using 100% of browser
  3279        window width (it didn't work because of that anyway). Also removed that
  3280        "reduce editor size" link at top of editor as you would lose your
  3281        changes when using it.
  3282      * Removed the option to choose text smileys instead of images, this made
  3283        more trouble than it was worth. The text version is still given in ALT
  3284        attribute.
  3285      * Moved stuff from contribution/ to MacroMarket page on MoinMoin wiki
  3286      * Some nasty people try to use a running moin as a proxy (at least they
  3287        did on moinmaster.wikiwikiweb.de:8000, maybe due to the magic port
  3288        number). We changed the code to check for that and just return 403
  3289        in that case. Moin can not be used as a proxy anyway.
  3290      * moin.cgi?test was removed in favor of a new buildin test
  3291        action. It works for all deployments, just use ?action=test.
  3292      * Sending mail does use tls if server supports it.
  3293 
  3294     3rd party developer notes
  3295 
  3296      * Themes should be now sub class of MoinMoin.theme.ThemeBase. Sub
  3297        classes will get automatically all new improved user interface
  3298        elements for free.
  3299      * Theme authors should update their theme for 1.3. Some keys removed
  3300        from them dict. See ThemeBase class in MoinMoin/theme/__init__.py. 
  3301      * Actions writers should call request.setContentLangauge with the 
  3302        correct language used by the action. This enable themes and other
  3303        code to use correct direction.
  3304      * The Formatter interface was changed. Formatters and parsers using 
  3305        the formatter interface have to be adjusted.
  3306      * started deprecation of Processors: they are still recognized, but
  3307        implementors should start to rewrite their Processors as Parsers.
  3308        A processor with the same name as a parser in a pre #! section is
  3309        currently preferred. This will change in the next release.
  3310 
  3311     Deprecation notes
  3312 
  3313      * Processors are deprecated, see section above.
  3314 
  3315      * Using the cookie (or the login url with ID) only and not setting (or
  3316        setting and not remembering) your email/password in UserPreferences
  3317        is DEPRECATED. Those quite unsecure methods will likely be dropped
  3318        in next moin version.
  3319 
  3320      * Operating with acl_enabled = 0 is also DEPRECATED. Due to some other
  3321        improvements planned, we will have to operate with ACLs enabled ONLY
  3322        in a future moin version, so this setting will likely be dropped.
  3323        So clean up your user accounts (see moin_usercheck.py) and switch ACLs
  3324        on NOW.
  3325        There are no drawbacks, so you will like it. Having ACLs enabled
  3326        doesn't mean you really have to USE them on wiki pages...
  3327 
  3328      * allow_extended_names = 0 is deprecated (default was/is 1).
  3329        Future versions will be able to use extended names (aka free links) in
  3330        any case and the config setting will be removed.
  3331 
  3332      * allow_subpages = 0 is deprecated (default was/is 1).
  3333        Future versions will be able to use subpages in any case and the config
  3334        setting will be removed.
  3335 
  3336      * attachments = {...} - we would like to remove that setting because of
  3337        several reasons:
  3338        * when not being extremely careful, this can easily lead to security
  3339          problems (like when uploading a .php exploit and then executing it
  3340          by accessing it directly via web server)
  3341        * makes code more complicated - code that we want to change completely
  3342          in next version
  3343        If you need that feature, speak up now and tell us your reasons WHY you
  3344        need it.
  3345 
  3346 
  3347 Version 1.2.4 (2004-10-23, Revision 1.187)
  3348 
  3349 This will probably be the last 1.2.x release as we are soon doing release
  3350 candidates for 1.3 release (with big internal changes) and are expecting
  3351 release 1.3 in december 2004.
  3352 
  3353 Fixes:
  3354     * fixed "None" pagename bug in fullsearch/titlesearch
  3355     * fixed projection CSS usage
  3356     * the compiled page is removed when a page is deleted, so no ghost page
  3357       appears after deletion
  3358     * fixed AbandonedPages day-break problem
  3359     * fixed [[GetVal(WikiDict,key)]]
  3360     * the msg box is now outside content div on PageEditor, too
  3361     * privacy fix for email notifications: you don't see other email addresses
  3362       in To: any more. mail_from is now also used for To: header field, but
  3363       we don't really send email to that address.
  3364     * privacy fix for /MoinEditorBackup pages that were made on previews of
  3365       pages that were not saved in the end
  3366     * fix double content div on PageEditor preview
  3367 
  3368 Other changes:
  3369     * workaround for broken Microsoft Internet Explorer, the page editor now
  3370       stops expanding to the right (e.g. with rightsidebar theme).
  3371       Nevertheless it is a very good idea to use a non-broken and more secure
  3372       browser like Mozilla, Firefox or Opera!
  3373 
  3374     * from MoinMoin.security.antispam import SecurityPolicy in your
  3375       moin_config.py will protect your wiki from at least the known spammers.
  3376       See MoinMoin:AntiSpamGlobalSolution for details.
  3377 
  3378     * xmlrpc plugin for usage logging, currently used for antispam accesses
  3379 
  3380     * (re-)added configurable meta tags:
  3381         * html_head_queries = '''<meta name="robots" content="noindex,nofollow">\n'''
  3382         * html_head_posts   = '''<meta name="robots" content="noindex,nofollow">\n'''
  3383         * html_head_index   = '''<meta name="robots" content="index,follow">\n'''
  3384         * html_head_normal  = '''<meta name="robots" content="index,nofollow">\n'''
  3385 
  3386     * i18n updates/fixes
  3387 
  3388     * New UserPreferences switch:
  3389       you may subscribe to trivial changes (when you want to be notified about ALL
  3390       changes to pages, even if the author deselected to send notifications).
  3391 
  3392     * New AttachList and AttachInfo macros - thanks to Nigel Metheringham and
  3393       Jacob Cohen.
  3394 
  3395 Version 1.2.3 (2004-07-21, Revision 1.186)
  3396 
  3397 Fixes:
  3398     * fixed NameError "UnpicklingError" in user.py
  3399     * fixed version number in moin.spec
  3400     * reverts done by bots or leechers
  3401       There was a bad, old bug that triggered if you did not use ACLs. In that
  3402       case, moin used some simple (but wrong and incomplete) function to
  3403       determine what a user (or bot) may do or may not do. The function is now
  3404       fixed to allow only read and write to anon users, and only delete and
  3405       revert to known users additionally - and disallow everything else.
  3406     * avoid creation of unneccessary pages/* directories
  3407     * removed double content divs in general info and history info pages
  3408     * fixed wiki xmlrpc getPageHTML
  3409     * fixed rightsidebar logout URL, also fixed top banner to link to FrontPage
  3410     * use config.page_front_page and .page_title_index for robots meta tag
  3411       (whether it uses index,follow or index,nofollow), not hardcoded english
  3412       page names
  3413     * ACL security fix for PageEditor, thanks to Dr. Pleger for reporting
  3414     * default options for new users are same as for anon users
  3415 
  3416 Version 1.2.2 (2004-06-06, Revision 1.185)
  3417 
  3418 Fixes:
  3419     * python related:
  3420      * own copy of difflib removed
  3421        Until moin 1.2.1 we had our own copy of python 2.2.3's difflib coming
  3422        with moin. This was to work around some problems with broken older 2.2
  3423        python installations. We removed this now because if you have py 2.3,
  3424        there is even a better difflib coming with python (and that fixes an
  3425        extremely slow diff calculation happening in some rare cases).
  3426        So the good news is that when you run python 2.3, you don't need to do
  3427        anything and it will run great. If you run python 2.2.3, it will mostly
  3428        work good and you also don't need to do anything. The bad news is that
  3429        if you run an old and broken 2.2 installation (2.2.1, maybe 2.2.2) you
  3430        will have to fix it on your own (just copy difflib.py from python 2.2.3
  3431        over to your python 2.2.x installation).
  3432        But better upgrade to python 2.3 (for debian woody, there's a backport),
  3433        as 2.3 generally runs better and faster than 2.2.
  3434      * scripts changed to use #!/usr/bin/env python (not /usr/bin/python2.2)
  3435 
  3436     * user accounts and ACLs:
  3437      * we now require the user to specify a password for a new account (you
  3438        were not able to login without a password anyway)
  3439      * it is not allowed any more to create user accounts with user names
  3440        matching config.page_group_regex - please check manually that you do
  3441        not already have such users existing (like a user named "AdminGroup"):
  3442        cd data/user ; grep name=.*Group *  # there should be no output!
  3443      * subscription email sending now honours ACLs correctly
  3444 
  3445     * markup / rendering / user interface fixes:
  3446      * fixed merging multiple lines indented by the same amount of blanks
  3447      * ## comments don't break tables in two parts
  3448      * added a "remove bookmark" link to RecentChanges
  3449      * fixed action=titleindex (added \n after each entry)
  3450 
  3451     * RSS fixes:
  3452      * non-ASCII characters should work now
  3453      * RSS feed (Recentchanges?action=rss_rc) gives UTC timestamps now
  3454      * removed attribute breaking RSS feed on RecentChanges
  3455 
  3456     * better email generation:
  3457      * if you use python >=2.2.2, we add a Message-ID header to emails
  3458      * if you use python 2.2.1, there is no email.Header. Instead of crashing
  3459        (like previous moin 1.2.x releases), we just use the subject "as is" in
  3460        that case. If it is not ASCII, this is not standards compliant.
  3461      * If you have >=2.2.2 it will use email.Header to make standards compliant
  3462        subject lines.
  3463      * use config.mail_from as sender address when sending "lost my password"
  3464        emails
  3465 
  3466     * file attachments:
  3467      * fixed for standalone server
  3468      * attachment URLs (when handled by moin) don't include server name
  3469      * fixed some wrong &amp;amp; in html src
  3470     
  3471     * better themeability:
  3472      * some entries in dict "d" where only present in header theme calls, some
  3473        only in footer theme calls. Now almost all is present in both calls.
  3474      * added some missing "content" divs so sidebar themes look better
  3475 
  3476     * fixed some crashes producing backtraces:
  3477      * no IOError when diffing against deleted page
  3478      * no backtrace in xml footnote generation
  3479      * no SystemInfo crash when no editlog exists in new wikis
  3480      * xmlrpc.getRecentChanges fixed
  3481 
  3482     * MoinMoin.util.filesys.rename is now a wrapper around os.rename that
  3483       fixes os.rename on broken win32 api semantics
  3484 
  3485 Other Changes:
  3486     * saving traffic and load by improved robot meta tag generation:
  3487      * "noindex,nofollow" on queries and POSTs
  3488      * "index,follow" on FrontPage and TitleIndex (give robots a chance ;))
  3489      * "index,nofollow" on all other pages (hopefully saving lots of senseless
  3490        requests for page?action=...) 
  3491      * removed config.html_head_queries (was used for same stuff)
  3492     * added russian i18n (utf-8)
  3493     * misc. other translation updates / fixes
  3494     * added rightsidebar theme
  3495     * TitleIndex now folds case, so "APage" and "anotherPage" are both under
  3496       letter "A".
  3497     * added macro/PageHits.py - it calculates the hits each page gets since
  3498       beginning of logging
  3499 
  3500 
  3501     * Full text and title search do now support multiple search terms - 
  3502       see HelpOnSearching for details
  3503  
  3504     * The Formatter interface was changed. Formatter and parser using 
  3505       the formatter interface have to be adjusted.
  3506 
  3507 Version 1.2.1 (2004-03-08, Revision 1.184)
  3508 
  3509 Fixes:
  3510     * minimum requirement to run moin 1.2/1.2.1 is python 2.2.2
  3511      * not: 2.2(.0), as this does not have True/False
  3512      * not: 2.2.1, as this does not have email.Header. You maybe can work
  3513        around that one by:
  3514       * getting the python 2.2.x (x>=2) /usr/lib/python2.2/email directory
  3515       * putting it into directory 'x' (whereever you like)
  3516       * doing a sys.path[0:0] = ['x'] in moin.cgi [or other appropriate place]
  3517       No guarantee, this is untested.
  3518     * Twisted: the http headers missed the charset data, fixed
  3519     * mod_python: fixes for mod_python 2.7
  3520     * wiki/data/plugin/__init__.py added - fixes not working plugin modules
  3521     * plugin processors work now, too
  3522     * fixed displaying non-existent translations of SiteNavigation in footer
  3523     * fixed zh-tw iso name (wrong zh_tw -> correct zh-tw)
  3524     * fixed reversed diffs in RecentChanges RSS
  3525     * fixed "last change" info in footer (wasn't updated)
  3526     * fixed event.log missing pagename (and other) information
  3527     * fixed horizontal line thickness >1
  3528     * fixed setup.py running from CVS workdir
  3529     * fixed crash when doing action=info on first revision of a page
  3530     * fixed hostname truncation in footer
  3531     * minor css fixes
  3532     * fixed clear msg links (they missed quoting, leading to strange page
  3533       names when you click on some of them)
  3534     * fixed python colorizer processor
  3535     * fixed quoting of stats cache filenames
  3536     * catched "bad marshal data" error when switching python versions
  3537 
  3538 Other changes:
  3539     * updated danish (da) i18n
  3540     * updated japanese (ja) i18n
  3541     * added serbian (sr) i18n
  3542     * added chinese (zh) i18n
  3543     * added a simple "viewonly" theme based on classic theme - you can use
  3544       this as default theme, so anonymous users won't get the usual wiki stuff,
  3545       but a far simpler (and less powerful) user interface.
  3546       It also displays the navibar at the left side.
  3547     * added moin.spec for building RPMs
  3548     * included MoinMoin/i18n/* into distribution archive (nice for translators)
  3549     * included some stuff under MoinMoin/scripts - xmlrpc-tools and account
  3550       checking stuff. removed some version control clutter from the dist
  3551       archive, too.
  3552 
  3553     * code colorization was refactored and some new languages (Java, C++,
  3554       Pascal) where added.
  3555     * inline: display of attachments was extended. A Parser now knows which
  3556       extensions it can handle.
  3557 
  3558 Version 1.2 (2004-02-20, Revision 1.183)
  3559 
  3560 New features:
  3561     * MoinMoin now requires Python >=2.2.2., we recommend to use Python >=2.3.2
  3562       (with 2.3.x, MoinMoin runs about 20-30% faster).
  3563     * by refactoring request processing, we made it possible to run moin under
  3564       persistent environments:
  3565         * twisted-web (http://twistedmatrix.com)
  3566         * httpdmain.py (use moin.py for starting this mini server)
  3567         * mod_python
  3568         * FastCGI
  3569       Of course, CGI is still possible.
  3570     * wiki pages will be compiled to bytecode now (by default), so no need for
  3571       slow parsing/formatting on every view ("WASP", see caching_formats)
  3572     * when using a persistent environment (like twisted) and WASP, you get up
  3573       to 20x speed - compared to CGI and moin 1.1
  3574     * added support for diffs between arbitrary revisions.
  3575     * removed requirement of the external diff utility
  3576     * config.auth_http_enabled (defaults to 0) - use this to enable moin
  3577       getting your authenticated user name from apache (http basic auth,
  3578       htpasswd) - if you enable this, your basic auth username has to be the
  3579       same as your wiki username.
  3580       Should work with CGI, FCGI and maybe even with mod_python.
  3581       Does not change behaviour of moin under twisted or standalone server.
  3582     * config.tz_offset = 0.0 sets a default timezone offset (in hours
  3583       from UTC)
  3584     * config.cookie_lifetime (int, in hours, default 12) sets the lifetime of
  3585       the MOIN_ID cookie:
  3586         == 0  --> cookie will live forever (no matter what user has configured!)
  3587         > 0   --> cookie will live for n hours (or forever when "remember_me")
  3588         < 0   --> cookie will live for -n hours (forced, ignore "remember_me"!)
  3589     * added themeing and some themes (if you improve the existing themes or
  3590       make nice new ones, please contribute your stuff!). The default theme is
  3591       set by config.theme_default (and defaults to 'classic').
  3592     * now supporting plugin directory for parsers, processors, themes, xmlrpc.
  3593     * action=info now defaults to showing page revision history again
  3594     * all actions accessing the logfile (as RecentChanges or history) are now
  3595       much faster
  3596     * #refresh processing instruction, config.refresh
  3597         * config.refresh = (minimum_delay, target_allowed)
  3598             * minimum delay is the minimum waiting time (in seconds) allowed
  3599             * target_allowed is either 'internal' or 'external', depending on
  3600               whether you want to allow only internal redirects or also
  3601               external ones. For internal redirects, just use the Wiki pagename,
  3602               for external, use http://... url.
  3603         * #refresh 3                    == refresh this page every 3 seconds
  3604         * #refresh 5 FrontPage          == internal redirect to FrontPage in 5s
  3605         * #refresh 5 http://google.com/ == redirect to google in 5s
  3606       Use very carefully! Allowing a low minimum_delay and putting a #refresh
  3607       on RecentChanges might slow down your wiki significantly, when some
  3608       people just let their browser refresh and refresh again. Also, it does
  3609       cause quite some traffic long-term. So better do not use this without
  3610       good reason! Default is None (switched off).
  3611     * hide most UserPreferences options before user has logged in, less
  3612       confusing for new users
  3613     * "config.page_dict_regex" defines what pages are dictionary definitions
  3614       Currently dictionaries are used for UserHomePage/MyDict where you can
  3615       define key:: value pairs that get processed like @DATE@ expansion when
  3616       saving a page. The 2 "@" will be added to your keys automatically.
  3617       Please do not use @xxx@ strings on the right side (value), results may
  3618       vary if you do.
  3619       You can also access wiki dictionaries by using the internal macro
  3620       [[GetVal(page,key)]]" - that will go to page "page" and return the
  3621       value (right side) corresponding to "key".
  3622       Implementation note: groups are a subset of the dictionary functionality.
  3623     * standalone server should work now (see server/moin.py), so you don't
  3624       need to setup apache or twisted for a local personal wiki, you only need
  3625       python and moin for that now, no additional stuff any more!
  3626     * if you run your wiki with charset = "utf-8" (the default is still
  3627       iso8859-1), you might want to have a look at contributions/utf8-pages/
  3628       to see if there are already translated system pages for your language.
  3629 
  3630 Fixes:
  3631     * new importPlugin routine (the old one didn't work correctly)
  3632     * removed 0xA0 characters breaking utf-8
  3633     * system page recognition now uses wiki groups (see AllSystemPagesGroup),
  3634       fixing the long-time broken system page exclusion on TitleIndex.
  3635     * mostly HTML 4.01 Strict compliant HTML
  3636     * design is done by CSS now, HTML is semantic markup only 
  3637     * removed target attribute from links, also [^NewWindow] markup - this
  3638       is a HTML 3.2 feature and not valid in HTML 4.01
  3639     * updated TWikiDrawPlugin to 20021003 version, with further modifications
  3640       including source. It can draw imagemaps now and saves PNG. On display a
  3641       GIF will be searched if no PNG is found. We recommend changing all GIFs
  3642       to indexed PNGs cause this fallback might disappear in later versions.
  3643 
  3644       Sample code using bash and ImageMagick (be sure you know what you do):
  3645       for draw in `find /path/to/wiki/data -name \*.draw`; do
  3646         file=`dirname $draw`/`basename $draw .draw`
  3647         if [ -e "${file}.gif" ]; then
  3648           echo "Converting ${file}.gif to ${file}.png"
  3649           convert "${file}.gif" "${file}.png"
  3650         fi
  3651       done
  3652 
  3653     * fixed email headers and encoding
  3654     * Changed moin-usercheck to adhere to scripting standards; no
  3655       proprietary config changes needed any more (added --config);
  3656       --wikinames is now part of the usage message.
  3657     * config.umask now defaults to 0770 - if you give world r/w access, ACLs
  3658       could be rather pointless...
  3659 
  3660 Removed config variables:
  3661     * external_diff (not needed any more, we have internal diff now)
  3662     * shared_metadb (wasn't implemented for long - we will re-add it, when it is)
  3663     * title1/2 (please use page_header1/2)
  3664     * page_icons_up
  3665 
  3666 Changed config variables:
  3667     * changed_time_fmt (removed some html and brackets around time from default)
  3668     * html_head (default is empty string now)
  3669     * page_footer1/2 (default is empty string now)
  3670     * page_icons (is now a list of icon names, not html any more)
  3671     * umask (default is 0770 now, not world r/w any more == more secure)
  3672 
  3673 New config variables (see MoinMaster:HelpOnConfiguration):
  3674     * cookie_lifetime
  3675     * mail_login
  3676     * page_credits
  3677     * page_dict_regex
  3678     * page_group_regex
  3679     * page_header1/2
  3680     * page_iconbar 
  3681     * page_icons_table
  3682     * page_license_enabled
  3683     * page_license_page
  3684     * theme_default
  3685     * theme_force
  3686     * tz_offset 
  3687 
  3688 Other:
  3689     * lots of internal code refactoring and optimization
  3690     * began moving src code documentation to epydoc, see "make epydoc"
  3691     * the URL for the RecentChanges RSS feed changed. It now only works with
  3692       ...?action=rss_rc.
  3693 
  3694 Known problems:
  3695     * theme support is neither complete (although covering most important
  3696       stuff) nor perfect - work on that will continue...
  3697     * we removed some html from system messages (the boxes at top of page you
  3698       get after some actions), so it currently looks less nice than before.
  3699     * html is not completely validating and it is not xhtml - this will be
  3700       fixed as soon as we have the infrastructure for that (other parser, DOM)
  3701     * problems with rtl (right-to-left) languages, will be fixed in 1.3
  3702     * if you change moin_config or switch themes, moin will still use already
  3703       cached page content. For the config this can be fixed by touching
  3704       MoinMoin/version.py (or simply deleting everything in
  3705       data/cache/Page.py). If you get more annoyed by this than pleased by
  3706       caching speedup, you can also switch off caching (see docs on
  3707       caching_formats).
  3708 
  3709 Themeing and HTML/CSS cleanup:
  3710     * Browsers with completely broken CSS support (like e.g. Netscape 4.x) are
  3711       no longer supported. If you still need to support them, do not upgrade to
  3712       moin 1.2. If you still use these browsers, we recommend that you upgrade
  3713       your browser first (Mozilla 1.5 has nice and standards compliant HTML and
  3714       CSS support and is available as Free Software for Windows, Linux and Mac).
  3715     * If you changed any html in code or by config you will have to check if it
  3716       still works. For the usual stuff, look into `MoinMoin/theme/classic.py`
  3717       and `classic/css/screen.css`. For config defaults of the html fragments,
  3718       read `MoinMoin/config.py`. If you want to modify a theme, don't simply
  3719       change classic, but copy or subclass it under a new theme name.
  3720     * because of the new theme support the layout of the `htdocs` directory
  3721       changed:
  3722       * Instead of using icons under `img/` and css under `css/`, there will
  3723         be an additional `themename/` directory in between, e.g. `classic/img/`
  3724         and `classic/css/`. If you added own icons, you may have to copy them
  3725         to the themes directory.
  3726       * The filename of the CSS file has changed to the media type, so the
  3727         normal one used for screen output has changed name from `moinmoin.css`
  3728         to `screen.css`. There also were quite some changes and enhancements to
  3729         the CSS files, so better use the new ones.
  3730     * config.css_url was removed
  3731 
  3732 Plugins:
  3733   * we use a new plugin loader that requires a correct `__init__.py` file in
  3734     the plugin directories. See the directory `wiki/data/plugin/` in the
  3735     distribution archive and just copy it over to your wiki's plugin directory.
  3736 
  3737 
  3738 Version 1.1 (2003-11-29, Revision 1.178)
  3739 
  3740 Version 1.1 requires Python 2.0 or higher, we recommend to use Python 2.2
  3741 (version 2.2.2 if that is available on your host) or even better >= 2.3.2
  3742 (with 2.3.x, MoinMoin runs about 20-30% faster).
  3743 
  3744 New features:
  3745   Configuration:
  3746     * config.default_lang lets you set a default language for users not
  3747       having specified language in their browser or UserPreferences
  3748     * "config.page_category_regex" defines what pages are categories
  3749     * replaced `config.page_template_ending` by a more flexible setting
  3750       named `config.page_template_regex`
  3751     * the same with config.page_form_regex (was: page_form_ending)
  3752     * "config.page_group_regex" defines what pages are group definitions
  3753       Currently groups are used for "user groups" (see ACLs) and "page
  3754       groups" (see AllSystemPagesGroup).
  3755     * robot exclusion from all pages except the standard view action,
  3756       via the config.ua_spiders regex (reduces server load)
  3757     * "maxdepth" argument for the TableOfContents macro
  3758     * config.title1, config.title2, config.page_footer1,
  3759       config.page_footer2 can now be callables and will be called with
  3760       the "request" object as a single argument (note that you should
  3761       accept any keyword arguments in order to be compatible to future
  3762       changes)
  3763     * "config.html_pagetitle" allows you to set a specific HTML page
  3764       title (if not set, it defaults to "config.sitename")
  3765     * navi_bar / quicklinks can now contain free-form links, i.e.
  3766       entries of the form "[url linktext]" just like in wiki pages
  3767     * if a quick link starts with '^', it opens in a new window; help
  3768       now opens in a new window also
  3769     * `config.smileys` for user-defined smileys (default: `{}`) - a dict
  3770       with the markup as the key and a tuple of width, height, border, image
  3771       name as the value).
  3772     * `config.hosts_deny` to forbid access based on IP address
  3773     * `config.mail_login` can be set to username and password separated by
  3774       a space, e.g. "username userpass", if you need to use SMTP AUTH
  3775     * `config.edit_locking` can be set to None (old behaviour, no
  3776       locking), 'warn <timeout mins>' (warn about concurrent edits, but
  3777       do not enforce anything), or 'lock <timeout mins>' (strict locking)
  3778     * optionally showing a license text on editor page, use:
  3779       config.page_license_enabled = 1
  3780       Optionally use these to customize what is shown there:
  3781       config.page_license_text = "... your text ..."
  3782       config.page_license_page = "MyLicensePage"
  3783       See the default values in MoinMoin/config.py for details and
  3784       override them in moin_config.py, if needed.
  3785     * `config.shared_intermap` can be a list of filenames (instead of a
  3786       single string)
  3787     * If you have added your own `SecurityPolicy`, the class interface for
  3788       that has changed (see `security.py`).
  3789 
  3790   Authenticaton / Authorization:
  3791     * added ACL support, written by Gustavo Niemeyer of Conectiva and
  3792       Thomas Waldmann. See HelpOnAccessControlLists for more infos.
  3793       You should use MoinMoin/scripts/moin_usercheck.py before activating
  3794       ACLs or some users with bad or duplicate accounts might get into
  3795       trouble.
  3796     * A user account can be disabled using moin_usercheck.py or
  3797       UserPreferences page. Disabling, but keeping it is good for edit
  3798       history.
  3799     * changed security default: deletion only available to known users
  3800     * support for Basic authentication (Apache style: AUTH_TYPE="Basic",
  3801       REMOTE_USER="WikiUserName"). If authentication is there, user
  3802       will be in ACL class "Trusted".
  3803     * support for username / password login
  3804       The username / password login will ONLY work, if you define a
  3805       password. With an empty password, username / password login is not
  3806       allowed due to security reasons. Passwords are stored encrypted
  3807       (format similar to Apache SHA) and can also be entered in the
  3808       UserPreferences form in this format. When requesting login
  3809       information by email, the password is also sent in this encrypted
  3810       format (use copy&paste to fill it in the form).
  3811       ...?action=userform?uid=<userid> is still possible, so if you have
  3812       bookmarks, they will still work). The input field for the ID was
  3813       dropped.
  3814       NOTE: using the userid for login purposes is DEPRECATED and might
  3815             be removed for better security soon.
  3816     * after logging in, you will get a cookie valid until midnight.
  3817       The next day, the cookie will expire and you will have to login
  3818       again. If you don't want this, you can check the "remember me
  3819       forever" option in UserPreferences.
  3820     * if the page file is read-only, you get a message (i.e. you can now
  3821       protect pages against changes if you're the wiki admin).
  3822       Note: you can do that easier using ACLs.
  3823 
  3824   Markup / Macros / Actions:
  3825     * RandomQuote macro (and even parses Wiki markup now)
  3826     * `[[Navigation]]` macro for slides and subpage navigation
  3827     * [[ShowSmileys]] displays ALL smileys, including user-defined ones
  3828     * the Include macro has new parameters (from, to, sort, items) and
  3829       is able to include more than one page (via a regex pattern)
  3830     * `MailTo` macro for adding spam-safe email links to a page
  3831     * if a fancy link starts with '^' (i.e. if it has the form
  3832       "[^http:... ...]"), it's opened in a new window
  3833      * because of that, the NewWindow macro was removed from contrib
  3834     * "#pragma section-numbers 2" only displays section numbers for
  3835       headings of level 2 and up (similarly for 3 to 6)
  3836     * ../SubPageOfParent links
  3837 
  3838   User interface:
  3839     * new fancy diffs
  3840     * Page creation shows LikePages that already exist
  3841     * editor shows the current size of the page
  3842     * editor returns to including page when editing an included page
  3843     * Visual indication we're on the editor page (new CSS style)
  3844     * selection to add categories to a page in the editor (use preview
  3845       button to add more than one category)
  3846     * if user has a homepage, a backup of save/preview text is saved as
  3847       a subpage UsersHomePage/MoinEditorBackup
  3848     * added "revert" link to PageInfo view (which makes DeletePage more
  3849       safe in public wikis, since you can easily revive deleted pages
  3850       via revert)
  3851     * Selection for logged in users (i.e. no bots) to extend the listing
  3852       of recent changes beyond the default limits
  3853     * Activated display of context for backlinks search
  3854     * Subscriber list shown on page info
  3855     * LikePages shows similar pages (using difflib.get_close_matches)
  3856     * last edit action is stored into "last-edited" file, and
  3857       displayed in the page footer
  3858     * reciprocal footnote linking (definition refers back to reference)
  3859     * "Ex-/Include system pages" link for title index
  3860       Note: system/help pages algorithm is still mostly broken.
  3861     * list items set apart by empty lines are now also set apart
  3862       visually (by adding the CSS class "gap" to <li>)
  3863     * "save" check for security.Permissions
  3864     * Added Spanish, Croatian and Danish system texts
  3865     * Added flag icons for the languages supported in "i18n"
  3866     * updated help and system pages, more translations, see also
  3867       AllSystemPagesGroup
  3868     * there was quite some work done on wiki xmlrpc v1 and v2 - it
  3869       basically works now.
  3870 
  3871   Tools and other changes:
  3872     * moin-dump: New option "--page"
  3873     * there are some scripts MoinMoin/scripts/* using wiki xmlrpc for
  3874       backup and wiki page copying applications
  3875     * Updated the XSLT parser to work with 4Suite 1.0a1
  3876     * more infos in cgi tracebacks
  3877     * UPDATE.html is a HTML version of MoinMaster:HelpOnUpdating
  3878 
  3879 Unfinished or experimental features:
  3880     * user defined forms
  3881     * XML export of all data in the wiki
  3882     * RST parser (you need to install docutils to use this)
  3883     * SystemAdmin macro
  3884 
  3885 Privacy fixes:
  3886     * do not use / display user's email address in public places
  3887 
  3888 SECURITY FIXES:
  3889     * Removed two cross-site scripting vulnerabilities reported by "office"
  3890 
  3891 Bugfixes:
  3892     * Bugfix for PageList when no arguments are given
  3893     * Disallow full-text searches with too short search terms
  3894     * [ 566094 ] TitleIndex now supports grouping by Hangul Syllables
  3895      * fix for multibyte first char in TitleIndex
  3896     * Footnotes were not HTML escaped
  3897     * Numbered code displays are now in a table so that you can cut the
  3898       code w/o the numbers
  3899     * Bugfix for wrong mail notifications
  3900     * Create unique anchors for repeated titles

  3903     * use gmtime() for time handling
  3904     * fixed negative gmtime() arguments
  3905     * [[Include]] accepts relative page names

  3907 
  3908 -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
  3909 Version 1.0 (2002-05-10, Revision 1.159)
  3910 
  3911 THIS IS THE LAST RELEASE WITH PYTHON 1.5.2 SUPPORT! If severe bugs
  3912 should occur, a maintenance release will fix them.
  3913 
  3914 Some optional features (like statistics) already require Python 2.0.
  3915 
  3916 New features:
  3917     * security fix: "allow_xslt" has to be set to 1 in order to enable
  3918       XSLT processing; note that this defaults to 0 because XSLT is able
  3919       to insert arbitrary HTML into a wiki
  3920     * "action=content" for transclusion into static web pages; emits the
  3921       pure page content, without any <html>, <head>, or <body> tags
  3922     * "?action=links&mimetype=text/plain" works like MeatBall:LinkDatabase
  3923     * "Preferred language" and "Quick links" user settings
  3924     * Added "processor" concept, processors work on the data in "code
  3925       displays" and are called by a bangpath in the first line of data
  3926     * Processors: Colorize, CSV (see HelpOnProcessors)
  3927     * New icons: "{OK}", "(./)", "{X}", "{i}", "{1}", "{2}" and "{}"
  3928       (see HelpOnSmileys)
  3929     * FullSearch now displays context information for search hits
  3930     * DeletePage offers a textentry field for an optional comment
  3931     * Email notifications are sent in the user's language, if known from
  3932       the preferences
  3933     * @PAGE@ is substituted by the name of the current page (useful
  3934       for template pages)
  3935 
  3936 Unfinished features:
  3937     * user defined forms
  3938     * XML export of all data in the wiki

  3949 -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
  3950 Version 0.11 (2002-03-11, Revision 1.151)
  3951 
  3952 Most important new features: file attachments, definition list markup
  3953 (glossaries), change notification via email, variable substitution when
  3954 saving pages, edit preview, and improved documentation.
  3955 
  3956 Note that the RSS features require a recent PyXML (CVS or 0.7) due to
  3957 bugs in the namespace handling of xml.sax.saxutils in earlier versions.
  3958 This is (hopefully) automatically detected on every installation.
  3959 
  3960 Statistical features are NOT designed to work with Python 1.5.2 and
  3961 require Python 2.0 or higher. Overall, MoinMoin 0.11 is not explicitely
  3962 tested for 1.5.2 compatibility.
  3963 
  3964 New features:
  3965     * XML formatting now (most often) produces well-formed, and, depending
  3966       on proper layout of the wiki page, valid StyleBook XML
  3967     * Headers are now automatically numbered, unless you set the config
  3968       item 'show_section_numbers' to 0
  3969     * "#pragma section-numbers off" (or "0") switches that off explicitely,
  3970       and "on" or "1" enables numbering 
  3971     * Added a "contributions" directory for 3rd party extensions
  3972     * AttachFile action, contributed by Ken Sugino; note that you have
  3973       to enable this action because of the possibility of DoS attacks
  3974       (malicious uploads), by adding this to your moin_config:
  3975             allowed_actions = ['AttachFile']
  3976     * "attachment:" URL scheme allows access to attachments, to get files
  3977        from other pages use "attachment:WikiName/filename.ext".
  3978     * New macros: Date(unixtimestamp) and DateTime(unixtimestamp) to
  3979       display a timestamp according to system/user settings
  3980     * Variable substitution when a page is saved, note that saving
  3981       template pages does NOT expand variables. Supported are:
  3982         @DATE@      Current date in the system's format
  3983         @TIME@      Current date and time in the user's format
  3984         @USERNAME@  Just the user's name (or his domain/IP)
  3985         @USER@      Signature "-- loginname"
  3986         @SIG@       Dated Signature "-- loginname date time"
  3987         @MAILTO@    A fancy mailto: link with the user's data  
  3988     * Copied some new emoticons from PikiePikie
  3989         || {{{ :-? }}} || :-? || tongue.gif ||

  4002       for details
  4003     * Added config.sitename and config.interwikiname parameter

  4005       * <datadir>/plugin/macro and <datadir>/plugin/action can be used
  4006         to store macros and actions local to a specific wiki instance
  4007       * config.shared_intermap can contain a pathname to a shared
  4008         "intermap.txt" file (i.e. one stored outside the datadir)
  4009     * added `backtick` shortcut for {{{inline literal}}} (has to be
  4010       enabled by "backtick_meta=1" in the config file); note that ``
  4011       is then a shorter replacement for '''''' escaping
  4012     * added inline search fields (at the bottom of each page)
  4013     * Added preview to the editor, including spell checking
  4014     * New languages: Chinese (Changzhe Han) and Portuguese (Jorge
  4015       Godoy), updated French (Lucas Bruand), added Korean (Hye-Shik
  4016       Chang) and Italian (Lele Gaifax)
  4017     * New SystemAdmin macro

  4025       other yes/no options
  4026     * "config.nonexist_qm" is now the default for a user setting
  4027     * `[[GetText(text)]]` macro loads I18N texts (mainly intended
  4028       for use on Help pages)
  4029     * table attributes via "||<attrlist> ... ||", more details on
  4030       http://purl.net/wiki/moin/HelpOnTables
  4031     * PythonFaq interwiki tag and support for $PAGE placeholder
  4032     * event logging, as the basis for future statistics
  4033     * "moin-dump" command line tool to create a static copy of
  4034       the wiki content
  4035     * "config.external_diff" allows to set an exact path to the
  4036       command, or change the name to for example "gdiff" if GNU
  4037       diff is not a native command in your UNIX flavour
  4038     * `[[PageSize]]` macro
  4039     * the interwiki name "Self" now always points to the own wiki
  4040     * config.title1 and config.title2 are inserted into the output
  4041       right before and after the system title html code (title1
  4042       is right after the <body> tag and normally undefined, title2
  4043       defaults to the "<hr>" above the page contents)
  4044     * Additional link on diff pages to ignore whitespace changes
  4045     * Subpages (config.allow_subpages, config.page_icons_up)
  4046     * super^script^, sub,,script,, and __underline__ markup
  4047     * `[[FootNote]]` macro
  4048     * many other new config options, see HelpOnConfiguration for
  4049       a complete list
  4050     * [[StatsChart(type)]] shows statistical charts (currently
  4051       defined types: hitcounts, pagesize, useragents)
  4052     * 'inline:' scheme works like 'attachment:', but tries to
  4053       inline the content of the attachment into the page;
  4054       currently knows about "*.py" sources and colorizes them
  4055     * support for Java applet "TWikiDrawPlugin" via
  4056       drawing:<drawingname> URL scheme (you need to activate
  4057       the AttachFile action if you want drawings)
  4058     * numeric entities (&#nnnnn;) are now optionally NOT escaped,
  4059       which allows you to insert more characters into a Latin-1
  4060       page, especially the Euro symbol
  4061     * navi_bar is now a list of page names which should be linked
  4062       on every page
  4063     * test.cgi is now rolled into moin.cgi, and can be called
  4064       by adding "?test" to the wiki base URL. Also, as a security
  4065       feature, the server's environment is only shown for requests
  4066       local to the web server.
  4067 
  4068 Unfinished features:
  4069     * user defined forms

  4082     * Fix for subtle changes in "re" of Python 2.2
  4083     * User-provided URLs are now never URL-escaped, which allows appending
  4084       #anchors and using %20 for spaces in InterWiki links
  4085 
  4086 -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
  4087 Version 0.10 (2001-10-28, Revision 1.134)
  4088 
  4089 This version is still Python 1.5.2 compatible, but it's not extensively
  4090 tested for that version and some parts of the system might not work
  4091 there, especially seldom used macros and actions. Bug reports welcome!
  4092 
  4093 New features:
  4094     * "#deprecated" processing instruction
  4095     * config entry "SecurityPolicy" to allow for customized permissions
  4096       (see "security.py" for more)
  4097     * added distutils support
  4098     * though not extensively tested, the standalone server now does POST
  4099       requests, i.e. you can save pages; there are still problems with
  4100       persistent global variables! It only works for Python >= 2.0.
  4101     * "bang_meta" config variable and "!NotWikiWord" markup
  4102     * "url_mappings" config variable to dynamically change URL prefixes
  4103       (especially useful in intranets, when whole trees of externally
  4104       hosted documents move around)
  4105     * setting "mail_smarthost" and "mail_from" activates mailing
  4106       features (sending login data on the UserPreferences page)
  4107     * very useful for intranet developer wikis, a means to view pydoc
  4108       documentation, formatted via a XSLT stylesheet, for details see
  4109       http://purl.net/wiki/python/TeudViewer?module=MoinMoin.macro.TeudView
  4110       or MoinMoin/macro/TeudView.py
  4111     * "LocalSiteMap" action by Steve Howell <showell@zipcon.com>
  4112     * Added FOLDOC to intermap.txt
  4113 
  4114 Bugfixes:
  4115     * Full config defaults, import MoinMoin now works w/o moin_config.py
  4116     * Better control over permissions with config.umask
  4117     * Bugfix for a UNIX time billenium bug (affecting RecentChanges
  4118       sorting and page diffs)
  4119     * data paths with directory names containing dots caused problems
  4120 
  4121 -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
  4122 Version 0.9 (2001-05-07)
  4123 
  4124 New features:
  4125     * XML page input (pages that start with "<?xml") and XSLT formatting
  4126     * Page caching, for now limited to XSLT processing (where it's
  4127       absolutely needed); new code & API to add the "RefreshCache" link
  4128     * Selection of common date/time formats in UserPreferences
  4129     * New action "titleindex" to support wiki introspection (MetaWiki);
  4130       see the new links below the index bar in "TitleIndex"
  4131     * UserPreferences: editable CSS URL for personal styles
  4132     * PageInfo: the editor's name or IP is shown for each change
  4133     * WantedPages: a new macro that lists links to non-existent pages
  4134     * OrphanedPages: a new macro that lists pages no other page links to
  4135     * Extensions to the FullSearch macro (see HelpOnMacros)
  4136     * Python syntax highlighting
  4137     * "DeletePage" action (has to be activated, see MoinMoinFaq)
  4138     * "Remove trailing whitespace from each line" option in the editor
  4139     * I18N (currently German and Swedish)
  4140     * Config option "url_schemas" to extend the supported URL types
  4141     * Improved tracebacks by using Ka-Ping's "cgitb"
  4142 
  4143 Bugfixes:
  4144     * The editor now sends a "no-cache" HTTP header
  4145     * "PageList" results are now sorted
  4146     * New config parameter "html_head_queries": send additional header
  4147       for all pages EXCEPT the "normal" view; main usage is to have
  4148       only the normal pages indexed by a spider, not the edit, print,
  4149       etc. views (which cause multiple hits on the same information)
  4150     * Store the modification time of the page file in the editlog, not
  4151       the current time when the log entry is created
  4152

  4261 
  4262 New features:
  4263     * When saving, a datestamp saved in the form and that of the file are
  4264       compared now; so, accidently saving over changes of other people is

  4286     * Added page diff, and diff links on page info

  4289     * Added "normal" InterWiki links
  4290     * Added "action=raw" to send the raw wiki markup as text/plain (e.g. for

  4292 
  4293 Bugfixes:
  4294     * Removed an exception when saving empty pages
  4295     * Fixed bold nested into emphasis ('''''Bold''' Italic'')
