4 - When a non-rated player participates in Floodgate, the following exception
5 was thrown and a Floodgate game would not start:
6 undefined method `[]' for nil:NilClass
7 ["/home/shogi-server/www/x/shogi_server/pairing.rb:499:in `block
8 in calculate_diff_with_penalty'"
9 This issue has been resolved. Only players who have player ID
10 (i.e. those who log in with valid password) are now allowed to
11 participate in Floodgate as the spec web page
12 [http://shogi-server.sourceforge.jp/rating.html] describes.

17 - Addressed Ruby incompatibility on ShogiServer::Usi::alphabetToDan.
18 It (and usiToCsa.rb) did not work with Ruby 1.9.3. This issue
20 Thanks to Hiraoka-san for debugging.
22 2014-11-30 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
27 2014-11-24 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
30 - Ruby 2.0.0 or later is recommended to use with shogi-server
31 since Ruby 1.8 reached its End-of-Life on the end of July, 2014.
33 - Addressed a warning of duplicated range in a regular expression.
35 2014-10-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
38 - A player, attempting to login with the current live player
39 stalling for more than a day, can forcibly override the current
41 - Kifu record files now includes rating scores of players at the
42 time when games start. Previously, for rating games, a record
43 file includes player IDs of both players with a line starting with
44 "'rating". Now it also shows rating scores for players who have
45 valid scores. The formats for black and white players are as
47 'black_rate:<player_id>:<score>
48 'white_rate:<player_id>:<score>
50 'rating:Test_sente+275876e34cf609db118f3d84b799a790:Test_gote+275876e34cf609db118f3d84b799a790
51 'black_rate:Test_sente+275876e34cf609db118f3d84b799a790:2763.0
52 'white_rate:Test_gote+275876e34cf609db118f3d84b799a790:2345.0
54 2014-07-19 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
57 - Added a new option, --abnormal-threshold n:
58 Games that end with the 'abnormal' status are counted in
59 win/lost games for the rating calculation if a game plays more
60 than n plies. Otherwise (or if n is zero), abnormal games are
61 counted out of rating games.
63 2014-01-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
66 - Released: Revision "20140107"
68 2013-12-29 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
71 - Previously, parameters in Floodgate time configuration file were
72 not applied to actual instances. This issue has been fixed.
74 2013-12-21 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
77 - shogi_server/pairing.rb: Impose penalty on matches between
80 2013-12-15 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
83 - Listen on only IPv4 explicitly. Under ruby 1.9.3p194, without
84 any bind addresses, ruby attempts to listen on both "0.0.0.0"
85 and "::". Specifying "::" on Linux leads to listen on both IPv4
86 and IPv6, which results in a warning message saying "Address
87 already in use - bind(2)".
89 - Released: Revision "20131215"
91 2013-12-14 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
94 - Added a new program, bin/usiToCsa.rb, which is a bridge for a
95 USI engine to connect to the Shogi-server.
96 - bin/usiToCsa is a sample wrapper script.
98 2013-12-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
101 - shogi_server/league/floodgate_thread.rb:
102 - Added a log message.
104 2013-12-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
107 - shogi-server/shogi_server/pairing.rb:
108 - Modified comment for LeastDiff match.
109 - Changed log messages and levels.
111 2013-12-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
114 - shogi_server/pairing.rb, player.rb:
115 Simplify estimated rate of unrated players (less memory).
116 - Enhanced syntax of Floodgate time configuration file.
117 Now it supports "set sacrifice <player_id>"; it sets a
118 sacrificed player for a specific Floodgate game.
119 ex. set sacrifice gps500+e293220e3f8a3e59f79f6b0efffaa931
121 2013-12-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
124 - Added a new pairing method, ShogiServer::ExcludeUnratedPlayers,
125 which filters out unrated players.
126 - Enhanced syntax of Floodgate time configuration file.
127 Now it supports "set pairing_factory <function_name>"; it sets a
128 factory function name generating a pairing method which will be
129 used in a specific Floodgate game.
130 ex. set pairing_factory floodgate_zyunisen
131 - Implemented conversion of move representation between CSA format
134 2013-11-24 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
137 - shogi_server/league/floodgate.rb: Improved robustness against
138 empty file under ruby 1.9.3p194
140 - Previously, reloading in daemon mode failed on
141 ruby 1.9.3p194. This issue has been fixed.
142 - Listen on only IPv4 explicitly. Under ruby 1.9.3p194, without
143 any bind addresses, ruby attempts to listen on both "0.0.0.0"
144 and "::". Specifying "::" on Linux leads to listen on both IPv4
145 and IPv6, which results in a warning message saying "Address
146 already in use - bind(2)".
148 - Fixed for reading Japanese comments under ruby1.9.3p194.
149 * mk_rate-from-grep, mk_rate-grep:
150 - Removed files that are no longer used.
152 2013-11-23 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
155 - gsl library may be provided as a gem
156 - Now duplicated inputs are checked and skipped.
157 * test/TC_floodgate.rb
158 - Improved randomness check so that it works on Ruby 2.0.0 as well
160 2013-11-04 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
163 - Added a new option, --ignore, which is imported from
166 - Flush after each output line.
167 * Rleased: Revision "20131104"
169 2013-09-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
172 - shogi_server/{game,time_clock}.rb:
173 When StopWatchClock is used, "Time_Unit:" of starting messages
174 in CSA protocol supplies "1min".
176 2013-04-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
179 - shogi_server/{game,time_clock}.rb:
180 Adds variations of thinking time calculation: ChessClock
181 (current) and StopWatchClock (new).
182 StopWatchClock, which is usually used at official games of human
183 professional players, is a clock where thiking time less than a
184 miniute is regarded as zero.
185 To select StopWatchClock, use a special game name with "060"
186 byoyomi time. ex. "gamename_1500_060".
188 2013-03-31 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
191 - %%FORK command: %%FORK <source_game> [<new_buoy_game>] [<nth-move>]
192 The new_buoy_game parameter is now optional. If it is not
193 supplied, Shogi-server generates a new buoy game name from
195 - command.rb: More elaborate error messages for the %%GAME command.
197 2013-03-20 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
200 - New pairing algorithm: ShogiServer::Pairing::LeastDiff
201 This pairing algorithm aims to minimize the total differences of
202 matching players' rates. It also includes penalyties when a match
203 is same as the previous one or a match is between human players.
204 It is based on a discussion with Yamashita-san on
205 http://www.sgtpepper.net/kaneko/diary/20120511.html.
207 2013-02-23 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
210 - New command: %%FORK <source_game> <new_buoy_game> [<nth-move>]
211 Fork a new game from the posistion where the n-th (starting from
212 one) move of a source game is played. The new game should be a
213 valid buoy game name. The default value of n is the position
214 where the previous position of the last one.
215 - The objective of this command: The shogi-server may be used as
216 the back end server of computer-human match where a human player
217 plays with a real board and someone, or a proxy, inputs moves to
218 the shogi-server. If the proxy happens to enter a wrong move,
219 with this command you can restart a new buoy game from the
220 previous stable position.
221 ex. %%FORK server-denou-14400-60+p1+p2+20130223185013 buoy_denou-14400-60
223 2012-12-30 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
226 - Backported a5c94012656902e73e00f46e7a4c7004b24d4578:

238 - shogi_server/pairing.rb:
239 + There was a bug in the logic avoiding human-human match.
240 This issue has been fixed.
241 + Improved the logic avoiding human-human match. Human-human
242 matches will less likely happen.
244 2012-01-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
247 - Added shogi_server/compatible.rb, which implements compatible
248 methods and allows Ruby 1.8.7 to run the server.

274 This issue has been fixed.
276 2011-12-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
279 - shogi_server/board.rb, piece.rb: Refactoring to cache OU pieces,
280 which was inspired by 81SquareShogi-server's change
281 (74b24b88c843f1dd767412475b117481d1d5e8eb).
282 - Added shogi-server-profile to take profile of shogi-server.

309 - mk_rate: the usage was not updated.
310 Thanks to Hoki-san to report this issue. (Closes: #23358)
312 2010-09-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
315 - shogi_server/board.rb, game.rb: For hadicapped games, wrong
316 initial positions were delivered to players and monitors. This
317 issue has been fixed. (Closes: #23245)
318 Thanks to HIDETCHI for reporting the issue.
320 2010-09-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
323 - shogi_server/login.rb: Enhanced the CSA Login mode.
324 Logging in the server with the CSA mode, users are now allowed to
325 specify a turn preference in an enhanced gamename string which
326 looks like <gamename>-<time>-<time>-<turn>. The first three
327 parts are a regular game definition. The last "-<turn>"
329 + Without -<turn> (i.e. same as the previous behavior), there
330 is no turn preference. A user's turn will be defined randomly.
331 + <turn> is either "B" for black or "W" for white.
333 2010-09-04 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
336 - shogi_server/{board,command,game,league,player}.rb
337 The Buoy behavior is changed.
338 + Starting a buoy game, players are notified a starting game
339 position with the initial position and moves, instead of a
341 + Players are allowed to start buoy games with specific turns.
342 ex. %%GAME buoy_foo-1500-0 +
344 2010-08-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
347 - shogi_server/command.rb: Prevent a possible password from be
348 logged in a log file when players send invalid LOGIN-like commands.
349 Thanks to Tomoyuki Kaneko for this idea.
351 2010-08-03 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
354 - sample/{check_file.rb,check_time.rb,check_time2.rb,test_time.rb}:
355 Added new files to test an issue where mtime of log files was
356 earlier than system time.
357 - shogi_server/league/floodgate_thread.rb: SetupFloodgate#start
358 now returns an instance correctly.
359 - ../shogi_server.rb, ../shogi_server/util.rb: Refactored
360 mkdir_for to Mkdir.mkdir_for.
361 - ../shogi_server/game.rb: mkdir_p will be performed in a global
362 mutex of ShogiServer::Mkdir.
364 2010-07-25 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
367 - shogi_server/command.rb:
368 + For an unknown error command log, an empty line is no longer logged.
369 + Commands specific to 81Dojo, starting with '%%%', are just
370 ignored instead of unknown command errors.
372 + Refactoring. Added test/TC_logger.rb to test
373 ShogiServer::Logger class.
374 + Fixed race condition: creating a new directory to archive
375 logs may have caused race condition, which ended up with
376 making the server unavailable. This issue has been fixed.
378 + Improved fault tolerance of the server.
380 2010-07-23 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
383 - shogi_server/league/floodgate_thread.rb: When the server run
384 with DEBUG mode, it ended up with an undefined variable error.
385 This issue has been fixed.
387 2010-07-17 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
390 - shogi_server.rb, shogi_server/board.rb, shogi_server/move.rb
391 - Refactoring: Board can now move_to() and move_back() a move
392 instead of deep_copy().
394 2010-07-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
397 - shogi_server/player.rb: Set initial values to BasicPlayer's
399 - shogi_server/league.rb: Improved performance of
400 Persistant#get_players. It took about 20 seconds for a large
401 size of players (5,300 lines in players.yaml). Now it completes in an
404 2010-06-22 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
407 - A new command line option:
408 --floodgate-names GameStringA[,GameStringB[,...]]
409 where a game string should be a valid game name such as
412 Note: Without this option, no floodgate games are started. If
413 you want floodgate-900-0 to run, which was default enabled in
414 previous versions, you need to specify the game name in this new
416 - Floodgate time configuration file:
417 You need to set starting times of floodgate groups in
418 configuration files under the top directory. Each floodgate
419 group requires a corresponding configuration file named
420 "<game_name>.conf". The file will be re-read once just after a
423 For example, a floodgate-3600-30 game group requires
424 floodgate-3600-30.conf. However, for floodgate-900-0 and
425 floodgate-3600-0, which were default enabled in previous
426 versions, configuration files are optional if you are happy with
427 default time settings.

447 - shogi_server/command.rb: Fixed an issue that MONITOR2OFF did not
448 work. Thanks to HIDECHI and koudayu.
450 2010-05-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
453 - test/*.rb: Improved performance and stability of tests
454 - shogi_server/player.rb: Help the write_thread to terminate
456 2010-05-06 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
459 - Previously mk_rate did not count in draw games. Now a draw game
460 is considered to weight 0.5 win and 0.5 loss. Respect
461 Inaniwa-shogi which strategically aims to draw.
462 - a new command line option, --skip-draw-games. In this mode, draw
463 games are just ignored as mk_rate previously did.
465 2010-04-25 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
468 - shogi_server/player.rb:
469 Log a warning message in a case that a player closes a
472 2010-04-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
475 - shogi_server/command.rb:
476 Equality of MonitorHandler class was wrong. %%MONITOROFF and
477 %%MONITOR2OFF may cause unexpected behavior. This issue has been
478 fixed. Thanks to Kota Fujiwara for reporting.
480 2010-03-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
483 - If two sequential moves from a player are identical, the last
484 one will be ignored and a game is in play. This situation might
485 happen with human players, especially on slow network,
486 impatiently sending a move twice.
488 2010-02-27 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
491 - The server now provides more accurate time control. Previously,
492 a player's thinking time included a time waiting to get the giant
493 lock. This may have caused games to time up, especially, during
496 2010-01-22 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
499 - Experimental feature: support handicapped games.
500 Game names that have the following prefixes are recognized as
501 handicapped games. Turn symbols "+" and "-" mean Uwate (expert)
502 and Shitate (beginner) respectively (i.e. Uwate players first).
503 "*" is not available.
513 2010-01-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
516 - shogi_server/command.rb, test/TC_command.rb
517 Proposal implementation of a new command called MONITOR2{ON,OFF}.
518 When the MONITOR2ON command is issued by a player, the server
519 immediately sends the player the entire contents of a record
520 file of the game, i.e. history of moves and so on, at that time.
521 Then, the server will forward subsequent moves like they are
522 appended to the record file.
523 - Behavior changed: A player monitoring a game with MONITORON will
524 not receive Game#show again when a gaming player resigns (:toryo).
526 2010-01-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
528 * Converted the repository from Subversion to Git.
530 2009-12-26 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
533 - The server can now provide multiple floodgate modes such as
534 floodgate-900-0 and floodgate-3600-0.
536 2009-12-25 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
539 - shogi-server: The command line option --floodgate-history has
540 been deprecated. The server will decide history file names such
541 as 'floodgate_history_900_0.yaml' and
542 'floodgate_history_3600_0.yaml', and then put them in the top
545 2009-12-20 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
548 - shogi_server/player.rb: Added new methods: is_human? and
550 A human player is recommended to use a name ending with '_human'.
551 ex. 'hoge_human', 'hoge_human@p1'
552 - shogi_server/pairing.rb: Added a new class:
553 StartGameWithoutHumans, which tries to make pairs trying to
554 avoid a human-human match. This is now enabled instead of the
555 previous class: StartGame.
556 - shogi-server, shogi_server/league/floodgate.rb:
557 Changed the argument of Floodgate.new.
559 2009-12-04 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
562 - The HUP signal is not supported by Ruby on Windows.
564 2009-11-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
567 - Added a new command line option: --base-date. You can specify a
568 base date to calculate rating scores. Games in the `future' are
569 ignored for the calculation.
571 2009-11-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
574 - The server logs a result of each game to a file named '00LIST',
575 which will be used to generate players.yaml. If the file does
576 not exist, the server will create one automatically.
577 Instruction to use the game result list file:
578 1. Make a list of game results from existing CSA files with
580 % ./mk_game_results dir_of_csa_files > 00LIST
581 2. Run the server. It appends a result of each game to
582 '00LIST' when the game finishes.
583 3. From the list of game results, calculate rating scores of
585 % ./mk_rate 00LIST > players.yaml
587 2009-11-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
590 - Split a pre-process collecting game results from csa files into
591 a new command, mk_game_results. Now, Generating players.yaml
592 requires two steps as follows:
593 % ./mk_game_results dir_of_csa_files > 00LIST
594 % ./mk_rate 00LIST > players.yaml

602 - A experimental new feature, codenamed Buoy: it allows players to
603 play a game starting with a specified position. First, a player
604 sets a buoy game with moves to a specific position. Then, two
605 players can play a new game with the game name.
607 + %%SETBUOY <game_name> <moves> [count]
609 ex. %%SETBUOY buoy_foo-900-0 +7776FU 10
610 ex. %%SETBUOY buoy_foo-1500-0 +7776FU-3334FU
611 - game_name is a valid game name with a prefix "buoy_".
613 - moves are initial moves from the Hirate position to a
614 specific position that you want to start with.
615 ex. +7776FU-3334FU+8786FU
616 - count is an optional attribute to tell how many times the
617 game can be played (default 1). The count is decremented
618 when the game finishes. If the count reaches zero, the buoy
619 game is removed automatically by the server.
621 + %%DELETEBUOY <game_name>
622 Delete a buoy game. The only owner who set up the game is
623 allowed to delete it.
624 ex. %%DELETEBUOY buoy_foo-900-0
625 - game_name is the buoy game name that was created.
626 + %%GETBUOYCOUNT <game_name>
627 Show a current count of the buoy game or -1 for non-existing
631 2009-07-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
634 - shogi_server/command.rb: refactored commands out of player.rb.
636 2009-06-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
639 - An empty floodgate_history.yaml caused a server error. This
640 issue has been fixed.
643 2009-06-17 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
646 - If a new game matched between two players is not started within
647 a certain time (default 120 seconds) (i.e. the agree_waiting or
648 start_waiting state lasts too long), the Server REJECTs the game.
651 2009-06-15 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
654 - When a Gote player AGREEd a new game and then a Sente player
655 logged out (LOGOUT), the Gote incorrectly received a LOGOUT message
656 from the server. Since Gote's state was not AGREEd or STARTed yet,
657 the Gote should be REJECTed. This issue has been fixed.
660 2009-06-14 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
663 - The Board could not recognize a certain pattern of
664 Oute-Sennichite. This issue has been fixed.
667 2009-03-22 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
669 * [utils/correct-bug14635.rb]
670 - Added a new file. This program corrects illegal lines introduced
673 2009-03-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
676 - Improved performance.
678 2009-02-15 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
681 - A duplicated comment that is the one of the previous (or older)
682 move might be erroneously recorded in a csa file. This issue has
683 been fixed. (Closes: #15080)
685 2009-02-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
687 * [utils/csa-filter.rb]
688 - Added a new file. This program filters CSA files.
690 2009-02-01 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
693 - The shogi-server records csa files of games in an illegal
694 format. This issue has been fixed. (Closes: #14635)
695 - A ##[MONITOR] command for showing a game result such as %TORYO
696 was not correct. This issue has been fixed.
698 2009-01-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
701 - It failed to proccess a game result, OuteKaihiMoreWin where a
702 checked king does not escape. This issue has been fixed.
704 2009-01-02 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
707 - shogi_server/timeout_queue.rb: the timeout parameter of the
708 constructor was not respected erroneously. This issue
710 - shogi_server/players.rb: When a player was finishing with its
711 write socket broken, there was a chance that the thread of the
712 player in the giant lock had to wait for a long time (about 20
713 seconds), which might cause threads of other players stop and
714 time out. (Closes: #14469)
716 2008-12-30 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
719 - Added a new option: --footer filename, which inserts contents of
720 the filename at the bottom of a generated page. A text specific to
721 wdoor should be written by using this option.
723 - It does no more depend on RDoc. RDoc::usage does not work well
726 2008-12-28 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
729 - Check kifu files more carefully so that files that contain
730 incomplete records are skipped.
731 - mk_rate might have failed to alloc due to out of memory. Now it
732 consumes less memory (about 200MB instead of 2GB).
733 - File names can be put into STDIN instead of specifying directory
734 names in command line arguments.
736 - New file. It filters kifu files and is of use for a pre-filter
739 2008-12-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
742 - Improved an existance check and etc. of directories specified
743 by command line options, especially in case of the daemon mode.
745 - A rotated log file is moved to $topdir/YYYY/MM/DD.
748 2008-11-27 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
751 - Added sample/*.sh for command line samples.
753 2008-11-24 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
756 - Added a new option --floodgate-history, which allows users to
757 specify a file name that stores the records of games. The
758 records are taken care of when games are matched.
760 2008-10-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
762 * [utils/eval_graph.rb]
763 - Display time control graphs as well.
764 Thanks to Nishimura-san for this idea.
767 2008-10-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
770 - Ruby 1.8.7 (or later) must be used. Ruby 1.8.6 is not supported.
771 - Daemon mode is available.
772 - shogi_server/piece_ky.rb is again merged with
773 shogi_server/piece.rb, then has been removed.
774 - Added a test case, TC_usi.rb.
776 2008-06-30 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
779 - Added a new option --player-log-dir, which allows users to log
780 messages that are received or sent to the wire.
782 2008-06-28 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
785 - A rating comment line is now written before the first move in a
786 record file instead of after the last move, which allows other
787 applications watching a game to recognize players in the middle
788 of the game. (Closes #12821)
789 - If a player, including a monitor, stuck at the time of sending
790 messages to the wire, which means that the giant lock was locked,
791 it might have prevented other players from processing until
792 timeout occurred. This issue has been fixed. (Closes #12555)
794 2008-06-27 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
797 - Pairing players might not have shuffled players because of
798 poor shuffling algorithm. This issue has been fixed.
801 2008-06-25 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
804 - Check invalid arguments. (Closes: #12856)
806 2008-06-23 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
809 - Added a new option: --fixed-rate and --fixed-rate-player
810 whose rate always results in that rate. (Closes: #12800)
812 2008-06-06 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
815 - The source has been splited to multiple sub files.
816 - The program now depends on rubygems and activesupport.
817 - The program can reload the source files on the flight, by
818 sending a HUP signal to the server.
819 - The server log will be rotated daily.
821 2008-05-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
824 - Last game results (win or lose) of x1 players were not
825 available on the next game. This issue has been fixed.
826 Thanks to Tomoyuki Kaneko for debugging.
827 - For draw games, "'rating" line in a .csa file was
828 wrong (meaningless). This issue has been fixed.
830 2008-05-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
833 - The repository has been converted from CVS to Subversion.
835 2008-05-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
838 - Floodgate's thread could cause an error when players.yaml was
839 cleared by another program (mk_rate). This issue has been
841 - Give default values to BasicPlayer, which fixed undefined
842 method error in Pairing.
844 2008-05-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
847 - The server could not recognize uchifuzume as an illegal move.
848 This bug has been fixed.
849 - The server crashed by an undefined method error.
850 This issue has been fixed.
852 2008-05-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
855 - .csa files will be located in a sub directory such as
856 "2008/05/05/*.csa". These days, we have many games in a day.
857 This change will help users browse a file list.
859 2008-05-03 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
862 - Show players who have accessed in the last 30 minutes with
865 2008-04-22 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
868 - When YSS was not rated on the wdoor mode, wrong rate24 scores
869 were displayed. This issue has been fixed. Now YSS absence
872 2008-04-21 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
875 - The half-life period is now configurable.
876 ex $ ./mk_rate --half-life 14 --half-life-ignore 7 <records>
878 2008-04-12 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
881 - Renamed variables (@id) since they caused Ruby's warning.
883 2008-04-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
886 - Improved a way to handle diferred moves (2008-03-24's change),
887 based on Tomoyuki Kaneko's patch.
889 2008-04-01 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
892 - An incorrect LOGIN crashed the server. This issue has been
895 2008-03-24 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
898 - Converting characters for comments in moves caused an error. This
899 issue has been fixed.
900 - If a player moves in the opponent's turn, it is illegal. But the
901 current CSA protocol does not clearly define a way to tell so to
902 the players. This shogi-server internally keeps such a move in a
903 buffer and replay it when the player of the move gets his/her
906 2008-03-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
909 - Erroneously, Board#to_s's current player was always Black.
910 It caused wrong determination of sennichite since it did not
911 care about the current player of a state. This has been fixed.
912 Thanks Takada-san for reporting this bug.
914 2008-03-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
916 * [util/players-graph.rb]
917 - Applied Kaneko-san's patch, which also shows expected-rate24
919 - Small PNG gets smaller.
921 2008-03-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
924 - Added an option --wdoor. In this mode, a rate expected at Shogi
925 Club 24 is calculated from YSS's rating (he is 2400 now).
927 2008-03-04 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
930 - If the computed ratings do not stabilize, then mk_rate aborts.
931 $ ./mk_rate dir && ./mk_rate dir > players.yaml
932 can avoid rewriting the invalid ratings to the file.
934 2008-02-23 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
937 - A comment is converted to EUC-JP and then written in a log.
938 Note that this conversion guesses the input encoding. Clients
939 are recommended to send EUC-JP compatible strings to the
942 2008-02-21 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
944 * [util/players-graph.rb]
945 - Released. Draw a chart for a player's rating score.
947 2008-02-17 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
950 - An illegal teban specified for Floodgate login could crash the
951 server. This issue has been fixed.
953 2008-02-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
956 - Thread.abort_on_exception is now false, meaning that
957 a thread's abort does not affect the others.
958 - The uchifuzume check did not generate promoting moves, which
959 could crash the server with illegal moves. This issue has
962 2008-02-14 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
965 - Added a new pairing variation, Swiss-like style. Winners at the
966 previous games (his/her point of view, not the server's) are
967 paired first, and then the others are matched. This is the
969 - Pairing classes are located in a separate source file,
970 pairing.rb. The file is 'load'ed each time to be used,
971 meaning that modifying the code will be applied to a running
973 - You can specify a single player who will be out of pairing
974 when there are odd players waiting for Floodgate.
976 2008-02-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
979 - When there are odd players wating for Floodgate, the random
980 pairing deletes the player who has ever played the most games.
982 2008-02-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
985 - For the Not-Yet-Rated group, those who have not connected
986 recently are not listed.
988 - Floodgate's thread checks the current time each 10 secs.
990 2008-02-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
992 * [mk_rate] [mk_html]
993 - Display not-yet-rated players as well.
995 - Use Yahoo! UI Library.
997 2008-02-04 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
999 * [shogi-server] [webserver]
1000 - In the daemon mode, if the specified directory was a relative
1001 path, the server could fail to start with a permission denied
1002 error. This issue has been fixed. The path is interpreted as
1003 an absolute path before switching to daemon.
1004 - In the daemon mode, a wrong process id was written in
1005 '--pid-file'. This issue has been fixed. Also, the pid file
1006 will be removed when the server shuts down.
1008 2008-02-03 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1011 - Game names that are recognized as the floodgate mode are now
1012 /^floodgate-\d+-\d+$/.
1013 - Floodgate could not schedule the next time when it was the next
1014 day. This issue has been fixed.
1016 2008-02-02 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1019 - Implemented a new feature, Floodgate mode, for covenience with
1020 public rating games. Now there is a special game "wdoor-900-0".
1021 Matching players for that game is scheduled each 30 minitues.
1023 2007-11-03 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1026 - Support Ruby 1.8.6 patch level 111 (or higher) and GSL 1.10 (or higher).
1027 It may not work with lower verions.
1029 2007-09-06 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1032 - The logic to detect Oute-Sennichite was not complete. Both players
1033 (checking side and escaping side) may cause Oute-Sennichite. The old
1034 logic only cared for the checking player. This issue has been fixed.
1036 2007-06-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1039 - Initial version. This web server is an interface between HTTP and
1040 shogi-server. Shogi-server commands will be available over HTTP. As
1041 of now %%LIST and %%WHO commands are supported.
1043 - Bumped up GAME_LIMIT (from 10) to 15 because the calculation of
1044 rates sometimes went wrong (infinite values).
1046 2007-04-21 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1049 - Implemented `CHALLENGE' command, and the server will respond with
1050 `CHALLENGE ACCEPTED'. Note that this command is dummy for this server
1051 because it is only available for CSA's official testing server and does
1052 not belong to the CSA standard protocol. Therefor, when clients receive
1053 `CHALLENGE ACCEPTED' from this server, they must ignore it.
1054 - Show revision in a start up message.
1056 2007-04-01 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1059 - Implemented one of the keepalive protocol in CSA protocol; If clients
1060 send LF, the server sends back LF.
1061 - More care for socket errors.
1063 2007-03-27 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1065 * [mk_rate] When there were too few games to rate players (i.e. no
1066 player to rate), mk_rate caused an error. Now it no longer shows
1069 2007-03-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1071 * [mk_html] Popup shows additional information.
1073 2007-03-02 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1076 - Use WEBrick for server framework.
1077 - Daemon mode is available.
1079 2007-02-26 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1082 - Failed to show usage. This issue has been fixed.
1083 - Initial start of the server failed beacause of empty players.yaml.
1084 This issues has been fixed.
1086 2007-02-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1089 - Show groups in the order specified in players.html.
1090 - Players who gamed recently have a background color.
1092 - Implemented half-life effect. Numbers of win/lose decrease by this effect.
1094 2006-11-26 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1096 * [shogi-server] Sente (gote) was able to move gote's (sente's) hand.
1097 That move should be illegal. This issue has been fixed.
1099 2006-11-01 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1101 * [mk_rate] Skip "abnormal" games, which were finished because of
1102 network failure or communication error. Recently some programs seem
1103 to have a lot of tries to connect to the Shogi Server at wdoor for
1104 debugging. We should ignore such games for a while to get a meaningful
1107 2006-10-30 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1109 * [mk_rate][mk_html]
1110 - Put players into "connected" groups in order to
1111 show a correct, meaningful rating. In the group, each player has at
1112 least a game with other players.
1113 - The format of players.yaml was updated.
1114 * [shogi-server] Followed the new format of players.yaml.
1116 2006-10-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1118 * [mk_rate] Corrected making win_loss_matrix.
1120 2006-10-02 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1122 * [mk_rate] players who never win or lose are not rated in order
1123 the calculation to complete.
1125 2006-09-30 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1127 * [shogi-server] The CSA mode supports the trip in a password.
1129 2006-09-22 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1131 * [shogi-server] Refactored the login procedures.
1133 2006-09-21 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1135 * [mk_rate] It failed parse draw games. Now this bug has been fixed.
1136 * [mk_html] Add CSS to look better.
1138 2006-09-15 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1141 - Remove the trip in a password. Now the password is hashed.
1143 - Support @NORATE syntax in a name, which avoids the player is
1146 2006-09-09 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1149 - Support a new command, %%VERSION. It shows the server's revision#.
1151 2006-09-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1154 - Re-design: trip is now a suffix of the password, not name.
1155 - Simplified the output of %%RATING.
1157 - Support "@" indentificaton in a name; players with same
1158 before-@-names are mapped to one.
1160 2006-09-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1162 * [mk_rate] Fix a bug. It solves the correct rate.
1164 2006-08-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1166 * [mk_rate] Re-design.
1167 - Correct the equations.
1168 - Apply deaccelerated Newton method.
1170 2006-08-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1173 - Fix a bug. Now it can see black/white players in a csa file.
1175 - Add a space in the output of %%RATING.
1177 2006-08-14 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1179 * [mk_rate] Record numbers of win/loss games.
1180 * Add mk_html, which generates html from players.yaml
1181 * Fix test/test_board.rb. Now it works.
1182 * Add test/TC_ALL.rb to run all test cases.
1183 * [shogi-server] Fix a bug. Now it can show %%RATING even if it has no

1196 * Change the player id, which is now <name>+<hash_of_the_trip>.
1197 * Fix the max length of the login name with a trip.
1198 * Add a comment line about the rated game status in the CSA file.
1199 * Remove the rating system, which will be calculated by another
1202 2006-08-01 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1204 * Add a command, %%RATING, to show a ranking sorted by rates.
1206 2006-07-31 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
