4 - Ruby 2.0.0 or later is recommended to use with shogi-server
5 since Ruby 1.8 reached its End-of-Life on the end of July, 2014.
7 2014-07-19 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
10 - Added a new option, --abnormal-threshold n:
11 Games that end with the 'abnormal' status are counted in
12 win/lost games for the rating calculation if a game plays more
13 than n plies. Otherwise (or if n is zero), abnormal games are
14 counted out of rating games.
16 2014-01-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
19 - Released: Revision "20140107"
21 2013-12-29 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
24 - Previously, parameters in Floodgate time configuration file were
25 not applied to actual instances. This issue has been fixed.
27 2013-12-21 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
30 - shogi_server/pairing.rb: Impose penalty on matches between
33 2013-12-15 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
36 - Listen on only IPv4 explicitly. Under ruby 1.9.3p194, without
37 any bind addresses, ruby attempts to listen on both "0.0.0.0"
38 and "::". Specifying "::" on Linux leads to listen on both IPv4
39 and IPv6, which results in a warning message saying "Address
40 already in use - bind(2)".
42 - Released: Revision "20131215"
44 2013-12-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
47 - shogi_server/league/floodgate_thread.rb:
48 - Added a log message.
50 2013-12-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
53 - shogi-server/shogi_server/pairing.rb:
54 - Modified comment for LeastDiff match.
55 - Changed log messages and levels.
57 2013-12-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
60 - shogi_server/pairing.rb, player.rb:
61 Simplify estimated rate of unrated players (less memory).
62 - Enhanced syntax of Floodgate time configuration file.
63 Now it supports "set sacrifice <player_id>"; it sets a
64 sacrificed player for a specific Floodgate game.
65 ex. set sacrifice gps500+e293220e3f8a3e59f79f6b0efffaa931
67 2013-12-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
70 - Added a new pairing method, ShogiServer::ExcludeUnratedPlayers,
71 which filters out unrated players.
72 - Enhanced syntax of Floodgate time configuration file.
73 Now it supports "set pairing_factory <function_name>"; it sets a
74 factory function name generating a pairing method which will be
75 used in a specific Floodgate game.
76 ex. set pairing_factory floodgate_zyunisen
78 2013-11-24 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
81 - shogi_server/league/floodgate.rb: Improved robustness against
82 empty file under ruby 1.9.3p194
84 - Previously, reloading in daemon mode failed on
85 ruby 1.9.3p194. This issue has been fixed.
86 - Listen on only IPv4 explicitly. Under ruby 1.9.3p194, without
87 any bind addresses, ruby attempts to listen on both "0.0.0.0"
88 and "::". Specifying "::" on Linux leads to listen on both IPv4
89 and IPv6, which results in a warning message saying "Address
90 already in use - bind(2)".
92 - Fixed for reading Japanese comments under ruby1.9.3p194.
93 * mk_rate-from-grep, mk_rate-grep:
94 - Removed files that are no longer used.
96 2013-11-23 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
99 - gsl library may be provided as a gem
100 - Now duplicated inputs are checked and skipped.
101 * test/TC_floodgate.rb
102 - Improved randomness check so that it works on Ruby 2.0.0 as well
104 2013-11-04 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
107 - Added a new option, --ignore, which is imported from
110 - Flush after each output line.
111 * Rleased: Revision "20131104"
113 2013-09-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
116 - shogi_server/{game,time_clock}.rb:
117 When StopWatchClock is used, "Time_Unit:" of starting messages
118 in CSA protocol supplies "1min".
120 2013-04-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
123 - shogi_server/{game,time_clock}.rb:
124 Adds variations of thinking time calculation: ChessClock
125 (current) and StopWatchClock (new).
126 StopWatchClock, which is usually used at official games of human
127 professional players, is a clock where thiking time less than a
128 miniute is regarded as zero.
129 To select StopWatchClock, use a special game name with "060"
130 byoyomi time. ex. "gamename_1500_060".
132 2013-03-31 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
135 - %%FORK command: %%FORK <source_game> [<new_buoy_game>] [<nth-move>]
136 The new_buoy_game parameter is now optional. If it is not
137 supplied, Shogi-server generates a new buoy game name from
139 - command.rb: More elaborate error messages for the %%GAME command.
141 2013-03-20 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
144 - New pairing algorithm: ShogiServer::Pairing::LeastDiff
145 This pairing algorithm aims to minimize the total differences of
146 matching players' rates. It also includes penalyties when a match
147 is same as the previous one or a match is between human players.
148 It is based on a discussion with Yamashita-san on
149 http://www.sgtpepper.net/kaneko/diary/20120511.html.
151 2013-02-23 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
154 - New command: %%FORK <source_game> <new_buoy_game> [<nth-move>]
155 Fork a new game from the posistion where the n-th (starting from
156 one) move of a source game is played. The new game should be a
157 valid buoy game name. The default value of n is the position
158 where the previous position of the last one.
159 - The objective of this command: The shogi-server may be used as
160 the back end server of computer-human match where a human player
161 plays with a real board and someone, or a proxy, inputs moves to
162 the shogi-server. If the proxy happens to enter a wrong move,
163 with this command you can restart a new buoy game from the
164 previous stable position.
165 ex. %%FORK server-denou-14400-60+p1+p2+20130223185013 buoy_denou-14400-60
167 2012-12-30 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
170 - Backported a5c94012656902e73e00f46e7a4c7004b24d4578:

182 - shogi_server/pairing.rb:
183 + There was a bug in the logic avoiding human-human match.
184 This issue has been fixed.
185 + Improved the logic avoiding human-human match. Human-human
186 matches will less likely happen.
188 2012-01-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
191 - Added shogi_server/compatible.rb, which implements compatible
192 methods and allows Ruby 1.8.7 to run the server.

216 - shogi_server/floodgate.rb: Generating next time around the new
217 year day by reading configuration files did not work correctly.
218 This issue has been fixed.
220 2011-12-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
223 - shogi_server/board.rb, piece.rb: Refactoring to cache OU pieces,
224 which was inspired by 81SquareShogi-server's change
225 (74b24b88c843f1dd767412475b117481d1d5e8eb).
226 - Added shogi-server-profile to take profile of shogi-server.
227 * [mk_rate] [mk_game_results]

253 - mk_rate: the usage was not updated.
254 Thanks to Hoki-san to report this issue. (Closes: #23358)
256 2010-09-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
259 - shogi_server/board.rb, game.rb: For hadicapped games, wrong
260 initial positions were delivered to players and monitors. This
261 issue has been fixed. (Closes: #23245)
262 Thanks to HIDETCHI for reporting the issue.
264 2010-09-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
267 - shogi_server/login.rb: Enhanced the CSA Login mode.
268 Logging in the server with the CSA mode, users are now allowed to
269 specify a turn preference in an enhanced gamename string which
270 looks like <gamename>-<time>-<time>-<turn>. The first three
271 parts are a regular game definition. The last "-<turn>"
273 + Without -<turn> (i.e. same as the previous behavior), there
274 is no turn preference. A user's turn will be defined randomly.
275 + <turn> is either "B" for black or "W" for white.
277 2010-09-04 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
280 - shogi_server/{board,command,game,league,player}.rb
281 The Buoy behavior is changed.
282 + Starting a buoy game, players are notified a starting game
283 position with the initial position and moves, instead of a
285 + Players are allowed to start buoy games with specific turns.
286 ex. %%GAME buoy_foo-1500-0 +
288 2010-08-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
291 - shogi_server/command.rb: Prevent a possible password from be
292 logged in a log file when players send invalid LOGIN-like commands.
293 Thanks to Tomoyuki Kaneko for this idea.
295 2010-08-03 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
298 - sample/{check_file.rb,check_time.rb,check_time2.rb,test_time.rb}:
299 Added new files to test an issue where mtime of log files was
300 earlier than system time.
301 - shogi_server/league/floodgate_thread.rb: SetupFloodgate#start
302 now returns an instance correctly.
303 - ../shogi_server.rb, ../shogi_server/util.rb: Refactored
304 mkdir_for to Mkdir.mkdir_for.
305 - ../shogi_server/game.rb: mkdir_p will be performed in a global
306 mutex of ShogiServer::Mkdir.
308 2010-07-25 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
311 - shogi_server/command.rb:
312 + For an unknown error command log, an empty line is no longer logged.
313 + Commands specific to 81Dojo, starting with '%%%', are just
314 ignored instead of unknown command errors.
316 + Refactoring. Added test/TC_logger.rb to test
317 ShogiServer::Logger class.
318 + Fixed race condition: creating a new directory to archive
319 logs may have caused race condition, which ended up with
320 making the server unavailable. This issue has been fixed.
322 + Improved fault tolerance of the server.
324 2010-07-23 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
327 - shogi_server/league/floodgate_thread.rb: When the server run
328 with DEBUG mode, it ended up with an undefined variable error.
329 This issue has been fixed.
331 2010-07-17 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
334 - shogi_server.rb, shogi_server/board.rb, shogi_server/move.rb
335 - Refactoring: Board can now move_to() and move_back() a move
336 instead of deep_copy().
338 2010-07-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
341 - shogi_server/player.rb: Set initial values to BasicPlayer's
343 - shogi_server/league.rb: Improved performance of
344 Persistant#get_players. It took about 20 seconds for a large
345 size of players (5,300 lines in players.yaml). Now it completes in an
348 2010-06-22 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
351 - A new command line option:
352 --floodgate-names GameStringA[,GameStringB[,...]]
353 where a game string should be a valid game name such as
356 Note: Without this option, no floodgate games are started. If
357 you want floodgate-900-0 to run, which was default enabled in
358 previous versions, you need to specify the game name in this new
360 - Floodgate time configuration file:
361 You need to set starting times of floodgate groups in
362 configuration files under the top directory. Each floodgate
363 group requires a corresponding configuration file named
364 "<game_name>.conf". The file will be re-read once just after a
367 For example, a floodgate-3600-30 game group requires
368 floodgate-3600-30.conf. However, for floodgate-900-0 and
369 floodgate-3600-0, which were default enabled in previous
370 versions, configuration files are optional if you are happy with
371 default time settings.

391 - shogi_server/command.rb: Fixed an issue that MONITOR2OFF did not
392 work. Thanks to HIDECHI and koudayu.
394 2010-05-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
397 - test/*.rb: Improved performance and stability of tests
398 - shogi_server/player.rb: Help the write_thread to terminate
400 2010-05-06 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
403 - Previously mk_rate did not count in draw games. Now a draw game
404 is considered to weight 0.5 win and 0.5 loss. Respect
405 Inaniwa-shogi which strategically aims to draw.
406 - a new command line option, --skip-draw-games. In this mode, draw
407 games are just ignored as mk_rate previously did.
409 2010-04-25 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
412 - shogi_server/player.rb:
413 Log a warning message in a case that a player closes a
416 2010-04-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
419 - shogi_server/command.rb:
420 Equality of MonitorHandler class was wrong. %%MONITOROFF and
421 %%MONITOR2OFF may cause unexpected behavior. This issue has been
422 fixed. Thanks to Kota Fujiwara for reporting.
424 2010-03-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
427 - If two sequential moves from a player are identical, the last
428 one will be ignored and a game is in play. This situation might
429 happen with human players, especially on slow network,
430 impatiently sending a move twice.
432 2010-02-27 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
435 - The server now provides more accurate time control. Previously,
436 a player's thinking time included a time waiting to get the giant
437 lock. This may have caused games to time up, especially, during
440 2010-01-22 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
443 - Experimental feature: support handicapped games.
444 Game names that have the following prefixes are recognized as
445 handicapped games. Turn symbols "+" and "-" mean Uwate (expert)
446 and Shitate (beginner) respectively (i.e. Uwate players first).
447 "*" is not available.
457 2010-01-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
460 - shogi_server/command.rb, test/TC_command.rb
461 Proposal implementation of a new command called MONITOR2{ON,OFF}.
462 When the MONITOR2ON command is issued by a player, the server
463 immediately sends the player the entire contents of a record
464 file of the game, i.e. history of moves and so on, at that time.
465 Then, the server will forward subsequent moves like they are
466 appended to the record file.
467 - Behavior changed: A player monitoring a game with MONITORON will
468 not receive Game#show again when a gaming player resigns (:toryo).
470 2010-01-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
472 * Converted the repository from Subversion to Git.
474 2009-12-26 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
477 - The server can now provide multiple floodgate modes such as
478 floodgate-900-0 and floodgate-3600-0.
480 2009-12-25 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
483 - shogi-server: The command line option --floodgate-history has
484 been deprecated. The server will decide history file names such
485 as 'floodgate_history_900_0.yaml' and
486 'floodgate_history_3600_0.yaml', and then put them in the top
489 2009-12-20 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
492 - shogi_server/player.rb: Added new methods: is_human? and
494 A human player is recommended to use a name ending with '_human'.
495 ex. 'hoge_human', 'hoge_human@p1'
496 - shogi_server/pairing.rb: Added a new class:
497 StartGameWithoutHumans, which tries to make pairs trying to
498 avoid a human-human match. This is now enabled instead of the
499 previous class: StartGame.
500 - shogi-server, shogi_server/league/floodgate.rb:
501 Changed the argument of Floodgate.new.
503 2009-12-04 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
506 - The HUP signal is not supported by Ruby on Windows.
508 2009-11-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
511 - Added a new command line option: --base-date. You can specify a
512 base date to calculate rating scores. Games in the `future' are
513 ignored for the calculation.
515 2009-11-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
518 - The server logs a result of each game to a file named '00LIST',
519 which will be used to generate players.yaml. If the file does
520 not exist, the server will create one automatically.
521 Instruction to use the game result list file:
522 1. Make a list of game results from existing CSA files with
524 % ./mk_game_results dir_of_csa_files > 00LIST
525 2. Run the server. It appends a result of each game to
526 '00LIST' when the game finishes.
527 3. From the list of game results, calculate rating scores of
529 % ./mk_rate 00LIST > players.yaml
531 2009-11-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
534 - Split a pre-process collecting game results from csa files into
535 a new command, mk_game_results. Now, Generating players.yaml
536 requires two steps as follows:
537 % ./mk_game_results dir_of_csa_files > 00LIST
538 % ./mk_rate 00LIST > players.yaml
540 % ./mk_game_results dir_of_csa_files | ./mk_rate > players.yaml
543 2009-08-06 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
546 - A experimental new feature, codenamed Buoy: it allows players to
547 play a game starting with a specified position. First, a player
548 sets a buoy game with moves to a specific position. Then, two
549 players can play a new game with the game name.
551 + %%SETBUOY <game_name> <moves> [count]
553 ex. %%SETBUOY buoy_foo-900-0 +7776FU 10
554 ex. %%SETBUOY buoy_foo-1500-0 +7776FU-3334FU
555 - game_name is a valid game name with a prefix "buoy_".
557 - moves are initial moves from the Hirate position to a
558 specific position that you want to start with.
559 ex. +7776FU-3334FU+8786FU
560 - count is an optional attribute to tell how many times the
561 game can be played (default 1). The count is decremented
562 when the game finishes. If the count reaches zero, the buoy
563 game is removed automatically by the server.
565 + %%DELETEBUOY <game_name>
566 Delete a buoy game. The only owner who set up the game is
567 allowed to delete it.
568 ex. %%DELETEBUOY buoy_foo-900-0
569 - game_name is the buoy game name that was created.
570 + %%GETBUOYCOUNT <game_name>
571 Show a current count of the buoy game or -1 for non-existing
575 2009-07-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
578 - shogi_server/command.rb: refactored commands out of player.rb.
580 2009-06-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
583 - An empty floodgate_history.yaml caused a server error. This
584 issue has been fixed.
587 2009-06-17 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
590 - If a new game matched between two players is not started within
591 a certain time (default 120 seconds) (i.e. the agree_waiting or
592 start_waiting state lasts too long), the Server REJECTs the game.
595 2009-06-15 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
598 - When a Gote player AGREEd a new game and then a Sente player
599 logged out (LOGOUT), the Gote incorrectly received a LOGOUT message
600 from the server. Since Gote's state was not AGREEd or STARTed yet,
601 the Gote should be REJECTed. This issue has been fixed.
604 2009-06-14 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
607 - The Board could not recognize a certain pattern of
608 Oute-Sennichite. This issue has been fixed.
611 2009-03-22 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
613 * [utils/correct-bug14635.rb]
614 - Added a new file. This program corrects illegal lines introduced
617 2009-03-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
620 - Improved performance.
622 2009-02-15 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
625 - A duplicated comment that is the one of the previous (or older)
626 move might be erroneously recorded in a csa file. This issue has
627 been fixed. (Closes: #15080)
629 2009-02-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
631 * [utils/csa-filter.rb]
632 - Added a new file. This program filters CSA files.
634 2009-02-01 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
637 - The shogi-server records csa files of games in an illegal
638 format. This issue has been fixed. (Closes: #14635)
639 - A ##[MONITOR] command for showing a game result such as %TORYO
640 was not correct. This issue has been fixed.
642 2009-01-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
645 - It failed to proccess a game result, OuteKaihiMoreWin where a
646 checked king does not escape. This issue has been fixed.
648 2009-01-02 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
651 - shogi_server/timeout_queue.rb: the timeout parameter of the
652 constructor was not respected erroneously. This issue
654 - shogi_server/players.rb: When a player was finishing with its
655 write socket broken, there was a chance that the thread of the
656 player in the giant lock had to wait for a long time (about 20
657 seconds), which might cause threads of other players stop and
658 time out. (Closes: #14469)
660 2008-12-30 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
663 - Added a new option: --footer filename, which inserts contents of
664 the filename at the bottom of a generated page. A text specific to
665 wdoor should be written by using this option.
667 - It does no more depend on RDoc. RDoc::usage does not work well
670 2008-12-28 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
673 - Check kifu files more carefully so that files that contain
674 incomplete records are skipped.
675 - mk_rate might have failed to alloc due to out of memory. Now it
676 consumes less memory (about 200MB instead of 2GB).
677 - File names can be put into STDIN instead of specifying directory
678 names in command line arguments.
680 - New file. It filters kifu files and is of use for a pre-filter
683 2008-12-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
686 - Improved an existance check and etc. of directories specified
687 by command line options, especially in case of the daemon mode.
689 - A rotated log file is moved to $topdir/YYYY/MM/DD.
692 2008-11-27 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
695 - Added sample/*.sh for command line samples.
697 2008-11-24 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
700 - Added a new option --floodgate-history, which allows users to
701 specify a file name that stores the records of games. The
702 records are taken care of when games are matched.
704 2008-10-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
706 * [utils/eval_graph.rb]
707 - Display time control graphs as well.
708 Thanks to Nishimura-san for this idea.
711 2008-10-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
714 - Ruby 1.8.7 (or later) must be used. Ruby 1.8.6 is not supported.
715 - Daemon mode is available.
716 - shogi_server/piece_ky.rb is again merged with
717 shogi_server/piece.rb, then has been removed.
718 - Added a test case, TC_usi.rb.
720 2008-06-30 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
723 - Added a new option --player-log-dir, which allows users to log
724 messages that are received or sent to the wire.
726 2008-06-28 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
729 - A rating comment line is now written before the first move in a
730 record file instead of after the last move, which allows other
731 applications watching a game to recognize players in the middle
732 of the game. (Closes #12821)
733 - If a player, including a monitor, stuck at the time of sending
734 messages to the wire, which means that the giant lock was locked,
735 it might have prevented other players from processing until
736 timeout occurred. This issue has been fixed. (Closes #12555)
738 2008-06-27 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
741 - Pairing players might not have shuffled players because of
742 poor shuffling algorithm. This issue has been fixed.
745 2008-06-25 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
748 - Check invalid arguments. (Closes: #12856)
750 2008-06-23 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
753 - Added a new option: --fixed-rate and --fixed-rate-player
754 whose rate always results in that rate. (Closes: #12800)
756 2008-06-06 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
759 - The source has been splited to multiple sub files.
760 - The program now depends on rubygems and activesupport.
761 - The program can reload the source files on the flight, by
762 sending a HUP signal to the server.
763 - The server log will be rotated daily.
765 2008-05-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
768 - Last game results (win or lose) of x1 players were not
769 available on the next game. This issue has been fixed.
770 Thanks to Tomoyuki Kaneko for debugging.
771 - For draw games, "'rating" line in a .csa file was
772 wrong (meaningless). This issue has been fixed.
774 2008-05-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
777 - The repository has been converted from CVS to Subversion.
779 2008-05-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
782 - Floodgate's thread could cause an error when players.yaml was
783 cleared by another program (mk_rate). This issue has been
785 - Give default values to BasicPlayer, which fixed undefined
786 method error in Pairing.
788 2008-05-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
791 - The server could not recognize uchifuzume as an illegal move.
792 This bug has been fixed.
793 - The server crashed by an undefined method error.
794 This issue has been fixed.
796 2008-05-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
799 - .csa files will be located in a sub directory such as
800 "2008/05/05/*.csa". These days, we have many games in a day.
801 This change will help users browse a file list.
803 2008-05-03 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
806 - Show players who have accessed in the last 30 minutes with
809 2008-04-22 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
812 - When YSS was not rated on the wdoor mode, wrong rate24 scores
813 were displayed. This issue has been fixed. Now YSS absence
816 2008-04-21 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
819 - The half-life period is now configurable.
820 ex $ ./mk_rate --half-life 14 --half-life-ignore 7 <records>
822 2008-04-12 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
825 - Renamed variables (@id) since they caused Ruby's warning.
827 2008-04-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
830 - Improved a way to handle diferred moves (2008-03-24's change),
831 based on Tomoyuki Kaneko's patch.
833 2008-04-01 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
836 - An incorrect LOGIN crashed the server. This issue has been
839 2008-03-24 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
842 - Converting characters for comments in moves caused an error. This
843 issue has been fixed.
844 - If a player moves in the opponent's turn, it is illegal. But the
845 current CSA protocol does not clearly define a way to tell so to
846 the players. This shogi-server internally keeps such a move in a
847 buffer and replay it when the player of the move gets his/her
850 2008-03-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
853 - Erroneously, Board#to_s's current player was always Black.
854 It caused wrong determination of sennichite since it did not
855 care about the current player of a state. This has been fixed.
856 Thanks Takada-san for reporting this bug.
858 2008-03-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
860 * [util/players-graph.rb]
861 - Applied Kaneko-san's patch, which also shows expected-rate24
863 - Small PNG gets smaller.
865 2008-03-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
868 - Added an option --wdoor. In this mode, a rate expected at Shogi
869 Club 24 is calculated from YSS's rating (he is 2400 now).
871 2008-03-04 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
874 - If the computed ratings do not stabilize, then mk_rate aborts.
875 $ ./mk_rate dir && ./mk_rate dir > players.yaml
876 can avoid rewriting the invalid ratings to the file.
878 2008-02-23 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
881 - A comment is converted to EUC-JP and then written in a log.
882 Note that this conversion guesses the input encoding. Clients
883 are recommended to send EUC-JP compatible strings to the
886 2008-02-21 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
888 * [util/players-graph.rb]
889 - Released. Draw a chart for a player's rating score.
891 2008-02-17 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
894 - An illegal teban specified for Floodgate login could crash the
895 server. This issue has been fixed.
897 2008-02-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
900 - Thread.abort_on_exception is now false, meaning that
901 a thread's abort does not affect the others.
902 - The uchifuzume check did not generate promoting moves, which
903 could crash the server with illegal moves. This issue has
906 2008-02-14 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
909 - Added a new pairing variation, Swiss-like style. Winners at the
910 previous games (his/her point of view, not the server's) are
911 paired first, and then the others are matched. This is the
913 - Pairing classes are located in a separate source file,
914 pairing.rb. The file is 'load'ed each time to be used,
915 meaning that modifying the code will be applied to a running
917 - You can specify a single player who will be out of pairing
918 when there are odd players waiting for Floodgate.
920 2008-02-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
923 - When there are odd players wating for Floodgate, the random
924 pairing deletes the player who has ever played the most games.
926 2008-02-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
929 - For the Not-Yet-Rated group, those who have not connected
930 recently are not listed.
932 - Floodgate's thread checks the current time each 10 secs.
934 2008-02-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
936 * [mk_rate] [mk_html]
937 - Display not-yet-rated players as well.
939 - Use Yahoo! UI Library.
941 2008-02-04 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
943 * [shogi-server] [webserver]
944 - In the daemon mode, if the specified directory was a relative
945 path, the server could fail to start with a permission denied
946 error. This issue has been fixed. The path is interpreted as
947 an absolute path before switching to daemon.
948 - In the daemon mode, a wrong process id was written in
949 '--pid-file'. This issue has been fixed. Also, the pid file
950 will be removed when the server shuts down.
952 2008-02-03 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
955 - Game names that are recognized as the floodgate mode are now
956 /^floodgate-\d+-\d+$/.
957 - Floodgate could not schedule the next time when it was the next
958 day. This issue has been fixed.
960 2008-02-02 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
963 - Implemented a new feature, Floodgate mode, for covenience with
964 public rating games. Now there is a special game "wdoor-900-0".
965 Matching players for that game is scheduled each 30 minitues.
967 2007-11-03 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
970 - Support Ruby 1.8.6 patch level 111 (or higher) and GSL 1.10 (or higher).
971 It may not work with lower verions.
973 2007-09-06 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
976 - The logic to detect Oute-Sennichite was not complete. Both players
977 (checking side and escaping side) may cause Oute-Sennichite. The old
978 logic only cared for the checking player. This issue has been fixed.
980 2007-06-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
983 - Initial version. This web server is an interface between HTTP and
984 shogi-server. Shogi-server commands will be available over HTTP. As
985 of now %%LIST and %%WHO commands are supported.
987 - Bumped up GAME_LIMIT (from 10) to 15 because the calculation of
988 rates sometimes went wrong (infinite values).
990 2007-04-21 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
993 - Implemented `CHALLENGE' command, and the server will respond with
994 `CHALLENGE ACCEPTED'. Note that this command is dummy for this server
995 because it is only available for CSA's official testing server and does
996 not belong to the CSA standard protocol. Therefor, when clients receive
997 `CHALLENGE ACCEPTED' from this server, they must ignore it.
998 - Show revision in a start up message.
1000 2007-04-01 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1003 - Implemented one of the keepalive protocol in CSA protocol; If clients
1004 send LF, the server sends back LF.
1005 - More care for socket errors.
1007 2007-03-27 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1009 * [mk_rate] When there were too few games to rate players (i.e. no
1010 player to rate), mk_rate caused an error. Now it no longer shows
1013 2007-03-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1015 * [mk_html] Popup shows additional information.
1017 2007-03-02 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1020 - Use WEBrick for server framework.
1021 - Daemon mode is available.
1023 2007-02-26 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1026 - Failed to show usage. This issue has been fixed.
1027 - Initial start of the server failed beacause of empty players.yaml.
1028 This issues has been fixed.
1030 2007-02-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1033 - Show groups in the order specified in players.html.
1034 - Players who gamed recently have a background color.
1036 - Implemented half-life effect. Numbers of win/lose decrease by this effect.
1038 2006-11-26 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1040 * [shogi-server] Sente (gote) was able to move gote's (sente's) hand.
1041 That move should be illegal. This issue has been fixed.
1043 2006-11-01 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1045 * [mk_rate] Skip "abnormal" games, which were finished because of
1046 network failure or communication error. Recently some programs seem
1047 to have a lot of tries to connect to the Shogi Server at wdoor for
1048 debugging. We should ignore such games for a while to get a meaningful
1051 2006-10-30 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1053 * [mk_rate][mk_html]
1054 - Put players into "connected" groups in order to
1055 show a correct, meaningful rating. In the group, each player has at
1056 least a game with other players.
1057 - The format of players.yaml was updated.
1058 * [shogi-server] Followed the new format of players.yaml.
1060 2006-10-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1062 * [mk_rate] Corrected making win_loss_matrix.
1064 2006-10-02 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1066 * [mk_rate] players who never win or lose are not rated in order
1067 the calculation to complete.
1069 2006-09-30 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1071 * [shogi-server] The CSA mode supports the trip in a password.
1073 2006-09-22 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1075 * [shogi-server] Refactored the login procedures.
1077 2006-09-21 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1079 * [mk_rate] It failed parse draw games. Now this bug has been fixed.
1080 * [mk_html] Add CSS to look better.
1082 2006-09-15 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1085 - Remove the trip in a password. Now the password is hashed.
1087 - Support @NORATE syntax in a name, which avoids the player is
1090 2006-09-09 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1093 - Support a new command, %%VERSION. It shows the server's revision#.
1095 2006-09-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1098 - Re-design: trip is now a suffix of the password, not name.
1099 - Simplified the output of %%RATING.
1101 - Support "@" indentificaton in a name; players with same
1102 before-@-names are mapped to one.
1104 2006-09-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1106 * [mk_rate] Fix a bug. It solves the correct rate.
1108 2006-08-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1110 * [mk_rate] Re-design.
1111 - Correct the equations.
1112 - Apply deaccelerated Newton method.

1141 * Fix the max length of the login name with a trip.
1142 * Add a comment line about the rated game status in the CSA file.
1143 * Remove the rating system, which will be calculated by another
1146 2006-08-01 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1148 * Add a command, %%RATING, to show a ranking sorted by rates.
1150 2006-07-31 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
