4 - Previously, parameters in Floodgate time configuration file were
5 not applied to actual instances. This issue has been fixed.
7 2013-12-21 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
10 - shogi_server/pairing.rb: Impose penalty on matches between
13 2013-12-15 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
16 - Listen on only IPv4 explicitly. Under ruby 1.9.3p194, without
17 any bind addresses, ruby attempts to listen on both "0.0.0.0"
18 and "::". Specifying "::" on Linux leads to listen on both IPv4
19 and IPv6, which results in a warning message saying "Address
20 already in use - bind(2)".
22 - Released: Revision "20131215"
24 2013-12-14 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
27 - Added a new program, bin/usiToCsa.rb, which is a bridge for a
28 USI engine to connect to the Shogi-server.
29 - bin/usiToCsa is a sample wrapper script.
31 2013-12-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
34 - shogi_server/league/floodgate_thread.rb:
35 - Added a log message.
37 2013-12-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
40 - shogi-server/shogi_server/pairing.rb:
41 - Modified comment for LeastDiff match.
42 - Changed log messages and levels.
44 2013-12-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
47 - shogi_server/pairing.rb, player.rb:
48 Simplify estimated rate of unrated players (less memory).
49 - Enhanced syntax of Floodgate time configuration file.
50 Now it supports "set sacrifice <player_id>"; it sets a
51 sacrificed player for a specific Floodgate game.
52 ex. set sacrifice gps500+e293220e3f8a3e59f79f6b0efffaa931
54 2013-12-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
57 - Added a new pairing method, ShogiServer::ExcludeUnratedPlayers,
58 which filters out unrated players.
59 - Enhanced syntax of Floodgate time configuration file.
60 Now it supports "set pairing_factory <function_name>"; it sets a
61 factory function name generating a pairing method which will be
62 used in a specific Floodgate game.
63 ex. set pairing_factory floodgate_zyunisen
64 - Implemented conversion of move representation between CSA format
67 2013-11-24 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
70 - shogi_server/league/floodgate.rb: Improved robustness against
71 empty file under ruby 1.9.3p194
73 - Previously, reloading in daemon mode failed on
74 ruby 1.9.3p194. This issue has been fixed.
75 - Listen on only IPv4 explicitly. Under ruby 1.9.3p194, without
76 any bind addresses, ruby attempts to listen on both "0.0.0.0"
77 and "::". Specifying "::" on Linux leads to listen on both IPv4
78 and IPv6, which results in a warning message saying "Address
79 already in use - bind(2)".
81 - Fixed for reading Japanese comments under ruby1.9.3p194.
82 * mk_rate-from-grep, mk_rate-grep:
83 - Removed files that are no longer used.
85 2013-11-23 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
88 - gsl library may be provided as a gem
89 - Now duplicated inputs are checked and skipped.
90 * test/TC_floodgate.rb
91 - Improved randomness check so that it works on Ruby 2.0.0 as well
93 2013-11-04 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
96 - Added a new option, --ignore, which is imported from
99 - Flush after each output line.
100 * Rleased: Revision "20131104"
102 2013-09-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
105 - shogi_server/{game,time_clock}.rb:
106 When StopWatchClock is used, "Time_Unit:" of starting messages
107 in CSA protocol supplies "1min".
109 2013-04-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
112 - shogi_server/{game,time_clock}.rb:
113 Adds variations of thinking time calculation: ChessClock
114 (current) and StopWatchClock (new).
115 StopWatchClock, which is usually used at official games of human
116 professional players, is a clock where thiking time less than a
117 miniute is regarded as zero.
118 To select StopWatchClock, use a special game name with "060"
119 byoyomi time. ex. "gamename_1500_060".
121 2013-03-31 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
124 - %%FORK command: %%FORK <source_game> [<new_buoy_game>] [<nth-move>]
125 The new_buoy_game parameter is now optional. If it is not
126 supplied, Shogi-server generates a new buoy game name from
128 - command.rb: More elaborate error messages for the %%GAME command.
130 2013-03-20 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
133 - New pairing algorithm: ShogiServer::Pairing::LeastDiff
134 This pairing algorithm aims to minimize the total differences of
135 matching players' rates. It also includes penalyties when a match
136 is same as the previous one or a match is between human players.
137 It is based on a discussion with Yamashita-san on
138 http://www.sgtpepper.net/kaneko/diary/20120511.html.
140 2013-02-23 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
143 - New command: %%FORK <source_game> <new_buoy_game> [<nth-move>]
144 Fork a new game from the posistion where the n-th (starting from
145 one) move of a source game is played. The new game should be a
146 valid buoy game name. The default value of n is the position
147 where the previous position of the last one.
148 - The objective of this command: The shogi-server may be used as
149 the back end server of computer-human match where a human player
150 plays with a real board and someone, or a proxy, inputs moves to
151 the shogi-server. If the proxy happens to enter a wrong move,
152 with this command you can restart a new buoy game from the
153 previous stable position.
154 ex. %%FORK server-denou-14400-60+p1+p2+20130223185013 buoy_denou-14400-60
156 2012-12-30 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
159 - Backported a5c94012656902e73e00f46e7a4c7004b24d4578:

168 2012-12-28 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
171 - shogi_server/pairing.rb:
172 + There was a bug in the logic avoiding human-human match.
173 This issue has been fixed.
174 + Improved the logic avoiding human-human match. Human-human
175 matches will less likely happen.
177 2012-01-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
180 - Added shogi_server/compatible.rb, which implements compatible
181 methods and allows Ruby 1.8.7 to run the server.

205 - shogi_server/floodgate.rb: Generating next time around the new
206 year day by reading configuration files did not work correctly.
207 This issue has been fixed.
209 2011-12-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
212 - shogi_server/board.rb, piece.rb: Refactoring to cache OU pieces,
213 which was inspired by 81SquareShogi-server's change
214 (74b24b88c843f1dd767412475b117481d1d5e8eb).
215 - Added shogi-server-profile to take profile of shogi-server.
216 * [mk_rate] [mk_game_results]

242 - mk_rate: the usage was not updated.
243 Thanks to Hoki-san to report this issue. (Closes: #23358)
245 2010-09-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
248 - shogi_server/board.rb, game.rb: For hadicapped games, wrong
249 initial positions were delivered to players and monitors. This
250 issue has been fixed. (Closes: #23245)
251 Thanks to HIDETCHI for reporting the issue.
253 2010-09-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
256 - shogi_server/login.rb: Enhanced the CSA Login mode.
257 Logging in the server with the CSA mode, users are now allowed to
258 specify a turn preference in an enhanced gamename string which
259 looks like <gamename>-<time>-<time>-<turn>. The first three
260 parts are a regular game definition. The last "-<turn>"
262 + Without -<turn> (i.e. same as the previous behavior), there
263 is no turn preference. A user's turn will be defined randomly.
264 + <turn> is either "B" for black or "W" for white.
266 2010-09-04 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
269 - shogi_server/{board,command,game,league,player}.rb
270 The Buoy behavior is changed.
271 + Starting a buoy game, players are notified a starting game
272 position with the initial position and moves, instead of a
274 + Players are allowed to start buoy games with specific turns.
275 ex. %%GAME buoy_foo-1500-0 +
277 2010-08-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
280 - shogi_server/command.rb: Prevent a possible password from be
281 logged in a log file when players send invalid LOGIN-like commands.
282 Thanks to Tomoyuki Kaneko for this idea.
284 2010-08-03 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
287 - sample/{check_file.rb,check_time.rb,check_time2.rb,test_time.rb}:
288 Added new files to test an issue where mtime of log files was
289 earlier than system time.
290 - shogi_server/league/floodgate_thread.rb: SetupFloodgate#start
291 now returns an instance correctly.
292 - ../shogi_server.rb, ../shogi_server/util.rb: Refactored
293 mkdir_for to Mkdir.mkdir_for.
294 - ../shogi_server/game.rb: mkdir_p will be performed in a global
295 mutex of ShogiServer::Mkdir.
297 2010-07-25 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
300 - shogi_server/command.rb:
301 + For an unknown error command log, an empty line is no longer logged.
302 + Commands specific to 81Dojo, starting with '%%%', are just
303 ignored instead of unknown command errors.
305 + Refactoring. Added test/TC_logger.rb to test
306 ShogiServer::Logger class.
307 + Fixed race condition: creating a new directory to archive
308 logs may have caused race condition, which ended up with
309 making the server unavailable. This issue has been fixed.
311 + Improved fault tolerance of the server.
313 2010-07-23 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
316 - shogi_server/league/floodgate_thread.rb: When the server run
317 with DEBUG mode, it ended up with an undefined variable error.
318 This issue has been fixed.
320 2010-07-17 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
323 - shogi_server.rb, shogi_server/board.rb, shogi_server/move.rb
324 - Refactoring: Board can now move_to() and move_back() a move
325 instead of deep_copy().
327 2010-07-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
330 - shogi_server/player.rb: Set initial values to BasicPlayer's
332 - shogi_server/league.rb: Improved performance of
333 Persistant#get_players. It took about 20 seconds for a large
334 size of players (5,300 lines in players.yaml). Now it completes in an
337 2010-06-22 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
340 - A new command line option:
341 --floodgate-names GameStringA[,GameStringB[,...]]
342 where a game string should be a valid game name such as
345 Note: Without this option, no floodgate games are started. If
346 you want floodgate-900-0 to run, which was default enabled in
347 previous versions, you need to specify the game name in this new
349 - Floodgate time configuration file:
350 You need to set starting times of floodgate groups in
351 configuration files under the top directory. Each floodgate
352 group requires a corresponding configuration file named
353 "<game_name>.conf". The file will be re-read once just after a
356 For example, a floodgate-3600-30 game group requires
357 floodgate-3600-30.conf. However, for floodgate-900-0 and
358 floodgate-3600-0, which were default enabled in previous
359 versions, configuration files are optional if you are happy with
360 default time settings.

380 - shogi_server/command.rb: Fixed an issue that MONITOR2OFF did not
381 work. Thanks to HIDECHI and koudayu.
383 2010-05-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
386 - test/*.rb: Improved performance and stability of tests
387 - shogi_server/player.rb: Help the write_thread to terminate
389 2010-05-06 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
392 - Previously mk_rate did not count in draw games. Now a draw game
393 is considered to weight 0.5 win and 0.5 loss. Respect
394 Inaniwa-shogi which strategically aims to draw.
395 - a new command line option, --skip-draw-games. In this mode, draw
396 games are just ignored as mk_rate previously did.
398 2010-04-25 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
401 - shogi_server/player.rb:
402 Log a warning message in a case that a player closes a
405 2010-04-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
408 - shogi_server/command.rb:
409 Equality of MonitorHandler class was wrong. %%MONITOROFF and
410 %%MONITOR2OFF may cause unexpected behavior. This issue has been
411 fixed. Thanks to Kota Fujiwara for reporting.
413 2010-03-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
416 - If two sequential moves from a player are identical, the last
417 one will be ignored and a game is in play. This situation might
418 happen with human players, especially on slow network,
419 impatiently sending a move twice.
421 2010-02-27 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
424 - The server now provides more accurate time control. Previously,
425 a player's thinking time included a time waiting to get the giant
426 lock. This may have caused games to time up, especially, during
429 2010-01-22 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
432 - Experimental feature: support handicapped games.
433 Game names that have the following prefixes are recognized as
434 handicapped games. Turn symbols "+" and "-" mean Uwate (expert)
435 and Shitate (beginner) respectively (i.e. Uwate players first).
436 "*" is not available.
446 2010-01-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
449 - shogi_server/command.rb, test/TC_command.rb
450 Proposal implementation of a new command called MONITOR2{ON,OFF}.
451 When the MONITOR2ON command is issued by a player, the server
452 immediately sends the player the entire contents of a record
453 file of the game, i.e. history of moves and so on, at that time.
454 Then, the server will forward subsequent moves like they are
455 appended to the record file.
456 - Behavior changed: A player monitoring a game with MONITORON will
457 not receive Game#show again when a gaming player resigns (:toryo).
459 2010-01-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
461 * Converted the repository from Subversion to Git.
463 2009-12-26 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
466 - The server can now provide multiple floodgate modes such as
467 floodgate-900-0 and floodgate-3600-0.
469 2009-12-25 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
472 - shogi-server: The command line option --floodgate-history has
473 been deprecated. The server will decide history file names such
474 as 'floodgate_history_900_0.yaml' and
475 'floodgate_history_3600_0.yaml', and then put them in the top
478 2009-12-20 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
481 - shogi_server/player.rb: Added new methods: is_human? and
483 A human player is recommended to use a name ending with '_human'.
484 ex. 'hoge_human', 'hoge_human@p1'
485 - shogi_server/pairing.rb: Added a new class:
486 StartGameWithoutHumans, which tries to make pairs trying to
487 avoid a human-human match. This is now enabled instead of the
488 previous class: StartGame.
489 - shogi-server, shogi_server/league/floodgate.rb:
490 Changed the argument of Floodgate.new.
492 2009-12-04 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
495 - The HUP signal is not supported by Ruby on Windows.
497 2009-11-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
500 - Added a new command line option: --base-date. You can specify a
501 base date to calculate rating scores. Games in the `future' are
502 ignored for the calculation.
504 2009-11-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
507 - The server logs a result of each game to a file named '00LIST',
508 which will be used to generate players.yaml. If the file does
509 not exist, the server will create one automatically.
510 Instruction to use the game result list file:
511 1. Make a list of game results from existing CSA files with
513 % ./mk_game_results dir_of_csa_files > 00LIST
514 2. Run the server. It appends a result of each game to
515 '00LIST' when the game finishes.
516 3. From the list of game results, calculate rating scores of
518 % ./mk_rate 00LIST > players.yaml
520 2009-11-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
523 - Split a pre-process collecting game results from csa files into
524 a new command, mk_game_results. Now, Generating players.yaml
525 requires two steps as follows:
526 % ./mk_game_results dir_of_csa_files > 00LIST
527 % ./mk_rate 00LIST > players.yaml
529 % ./mk_game_results dir_of_csa_files | ./mk_rate > players.yaml
532 2009-08-06 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
535 - A experimental new feature, codenamed Buoy: it allows players to
536 play a game starting with a specified position. First, a player
537 sets a buoy game with moves to a specific position. Then, two
538 players can play a new game with the game name.
540 + %%SETBUOY <game_name> <moves> [count]
542 ex. %%SETBUOY buoy_foo-900-0 +7776FU 10
543 ex. %%SETBUOY buoy_foo-1500-0 +7776FU-3334FU
544 - game_name is a valid game name with a prefix "buoy_".
546 - moves are initial moves from the Hirate position to a
547 specific position that you want to start with.
548 ex. +7776FU-3334FU+8786FU
549 - count is an optional attribute to tell how many times the
550 game can be played (default 1). The count is decremented
551 when the game finishes. If the count reaches zero, the buoy
552 game is removed automatically by the server.
554 + %%DELETEBUOY <game_name>
555 Delete a buoy game. The only owner who set up the game is
556 allowed to delete it.
557 ex. %%DELETEBUOY buoy_foo-900-0
558 - game_name is the buoy game name that was created.
559 + %%GETBUOYCOUNT <game_name>
560 Show a current count of the buoy game or -1 for non-existing
564 2009-07-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
567 - shogi_server/command.rb: refactored commands out of player.rb.
569 2009-06-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
572 - An empty floodgate_history.yaml caused a server error. This
573 issue has been fixed.
576 2009-06-17 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
579 - If a new game matched between two players is not started within
580 a certain time (default 120 seconds) (i.e. the agree_waiting or
581 start_waiting state lasts too long), the Server REJECTs the game.
584 2009-06-15 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
587 - When a Gote player AGREEd a new game and then a Sente player
588 logged out (LOGOUT), the Gote incorrectly received a LOGOUT message
589 from the server. Since Gote's state was not AGREEd or STARTed yet,
590 the Gote should be REJECTed. This issue has been fixed.
593 2009-06-14 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
596 - The Board could not recognize a certain pattern of
597 Oute-Sennichite. This issue has been fixed.
600 2009-03-22 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
602 * [utils/correct-bug14635.rb]
603 - Added a new file. This program corrects illegal lines introduced
606 2009-03-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
609 - Improved performance.
611 2009-02-15 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
614 - A duplicated comment that is the one of the previous (or older)
615 move might be erroneously recorded in a csa file. This issue has
616 been fixed. (Closes: #15080)
618 2009-02-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
620 * [utils/csa-filter.rb]
621 - Added a new file. This program filters CSA files.
623 2009-02-01 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
626 - The shogi-server records csa files of games in an illegal
627 format. This issue has been fixed. (Closes: #14635)
628 - A ##[MONITOR] command for showing a game result such as %TORYO
629 was not correct. This issue has been fixed.
631 2009-01-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
634 - It failed to proccess a game result, OuteKaihiMoreWin where a
635 checked king does not escape. This issue has been fixed.
637 2009-01-02 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
640 - shogi_server/timeout_queue.rb: the timeout parameter of the
641 constructor was not respected erroneously. This issue
643 - shogi_server/players.rb: When a player was finishing with its
644 write socket broken, there was a chance that the thread of the
645 player in the giant lock had to wait for a long time (about 20
646 seconds), which might cause threads of other players stop and
647 time out. (Closes: #14469)
649 2008-12-30 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
652 - Added a new option: --footer filename, which inserts contents of
653 the filename at the bottom of a generated page. A text specific to
654 wdoor should be written by using this option.
656 - It does no more depend on RDoc. RDoc::usage does not work well
659 2008-12-28 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
662 - Check kifu files more carefully so that files that contain
663 incomplete records are skipped.
664 - mk_rate might have failed to alloc due to out of memory. Now it
665 consumes less memory (about 200MB instead of 2GB).
666 - File names can be put into STDIN instead of specifying directory
667 names in command line arguments.
669 - New file. It filters kifu files and is of use for a pre-filter
672 2008-12-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
675 - Improved an existance check and etc. of directories specified
676 by command line options, especially in case of the daemon mode.
678 - A rotated log file is moved to $topdir/YYYY/MM/DD.
681 2008-11-27 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
684 - Added sample/*.sh for command line samples.
686 2008-11-24 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
689 - Added a new option --floodgate-history, which allows users to
690 specify a file name that stores the records of games. The
691 records are taken care of when games are matched.
693 2008-10-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
695 * [utils/eval_graph.rb]
696 - Display time control graphs as well.
697 Thanks to Nishimura-san for this idea.
700 2008-10-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
703 - Ruby 1.8.7 (or later) must be used. Ruby 1.8.6 is not supported.
704 - Daemon mode is available.
705 - shogi_server/piece_ky.rb is again merged with
706 shogi_server/piece.rb, then has been removed.
707 - Added a test case, TC_usi.rb.
709 2008-06-30 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
712 - Added a new option --player-log-dir, which allows users to log
713 messages that are received or sent to the wire.
715 2008-06-28 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
718 - A rating comment line is now written before the first move in a
719 record file instead of after the last move, which allows other
720 applications watching a game to recognize players in the middle
721 of the game. (Closes #12821)
722 - If a player, including a monitor, stuck at the time of sending
723 messages to the wire, which means that the giant lock was locked,
724 it might have prevented other players from processing until
725 timeout occurred. This issue has been fixed. (Closes #12555)
727 2008-06-27 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
730 - Pairing players might not have shuffled players because of
731 poor shuffling algorithm. This issue has been fixed.
734 2008-06-25 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
737 - Check invalid arguments. (Closes: #12856)
739 2008-06-23 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
742 - Added a new option: --fixed-rate and --fixed-rate-player
743 whose rate always results in that rate. (Closes: #12800)
745 2008-06-06 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
748 - The source has been splited to multiple sub files.
749 - The program now depends on rubygems and activesupport.
750 - The program can reload the source files on the flight, by
751 sending a HUP signal to the server.
752 - The server log will be rotated daily.
754 2008-05-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
757 - Last game results (win or lose) of x1 players were not
758 available on the next game. This issue has been fixed.
759 Thanks to Tomoyuki Kaneko for debugging.
760 - For draw games, "'rating" line in a .csa file was
761 wrong (meaningless). This issue has been fixed.
763 2008-05-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
766 - The repository has been converted from CVS to Subversion.
768 2008-05-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
771 - Floodgate's thread could cause an error when players.yaml was
772 cleared by another program (mk_rate). This issue has been
774 - Give default values to BasicPlayer, which fixed undefined
775 method error in Pairing.
777 2008-05-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
780 - The server could not recognize uchifuzume as an illegal move.
781 This bug has been fixed.
782 - The server crashed by an undefined method error.
783 This issue has been fixed.
785 2008-05-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
788 - .csa files will be located in a sub directory such as
789 "2008/05/05/*.csa". These days, we have many games in a day.
790 This change will help users browse a file list.
792 2008-05-03 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
795 - Show players who have accessed in the last 30 minutes with
798 2008-04-22 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
801 - When YSS was not rated on the wdoor mode, wrong rate24 scores
802 were displayed. This issue has been fixed. Now YSS absence
805 2008-04-21 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
808 - The half-life period is now configurable.
809 ex $ ./mk_rate --half-life 14 --half-life-ignore 7 <records>
811 2008-04-12 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
814 - Renamed variables (@id) since they caused Ruby's warning.
816 2008-04-11 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
819 - Improved a way to handle diferred moves (2008-03-24's change),
820 based on Tomoyuki Kaneko's patch.
822 2008-04-01 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
825 - An incorrect LOGIN crashed the server. This issue has been
828 2008-03-24 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
831 - Converting characters for comments in moves caused an error. This
832 issue has been fixed.
833 - If a player moves in the opponent's turn, it is illegal. But the
834 current CSA protocol does not clearly define a way to tell so to
835 the players. This shogi-server internally keeps such a move in a
836 buffer and replay it when the player of the move gets his/her
839 2008-03-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
842 - Erroneously, Board#to_s's current player was always Black.
843 It caused wrong determination of sennichite since it did not
844 care about the current player of a state. This has been fixed.
845 Thanks Takada-san for reporting this bug.
847 2008-03-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
849 * [util/players-graph.rb]
850 - Applied Kaneko-san's patch, which also shows expected-rate24
852 - Small PNG gets smaller.
854 2008-03-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
857 - Added an option --wdoor. In this mode, a rate expected at Shogi
858 Club 24 is calculated from YSS's rating (he is 2400 now).
860 2008-03-04 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
863 - If the computed ratings do not stabilize, then mk_rate aborts.
864 $ ./mk_rate dir && ./mk_rate dir > players.yaml
865 can avoid rewriting the invalid ratings to the file.
867 2008-02-23 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
870 - A comment is converted to EUC-JP and then written in a log.
871 Note that this conversion guesses the input encoding. Clients
872 are recommended to send EUC-JP compatible strings to the
875 2008-02-21 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
877 * [util/players-graph.rb]
878 - Released. Draw a chart for a player's rating score.
880 2008-02-17 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
883 - An illegal teban specified for Floodgate login could crash the
884 server. This issue has been fixed.
886 2008-02-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
889 - Thread.abort_on_exception is now false, meaning that
890 a thread's abort does not affect the others.
891 - The uchifuzume check did not generate promoting moves, which
892 could crash the server with illegal moves. This issue has
895 2008-02-14 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
898 - Added a new pairing variation, Swiss-like style. Winners at the
899 previous games (his/her point of view, not the server's) are
900 paired first, and then the others are matched. This is the
902 - Pairing classes are located in a separate source file,
903 pairing.rb. The file is 'load'ed each time to be used,
904 meaning that modifying the code will be applied to a running
906 - You can specify a single player who will be out of pairing
907 when there are odd players waiting for Floodgate.
909 2008-02-13 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
912 - When there are odd players wating for Floodgate, the random
913 pairing deletes the player who has ever played the most games.
915 2008-02-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
918 - For the Not-Yet-Rated group, those who have not connected
919 recently are not listed.
921 - Floodgate's thread checks the current time each 10 secs.
923 2008-02-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
925 * [mk_rate] [mk_html]
926 - Display not-yet-rated players as well.
928 - Use Yahoo! UI Library.
930 2008-02-04 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
932 * [shogi-server] [webserver]
933 - In the daemon mode, if the specified directory was a relative
934 path, the server could fail to start with a permission denied
935 error. This issue has been fixed. The path is interpreted as
936 an absolute path before switching to daemon.
937 - In the daemon mode, a wrong process id was written in
938 '--pid-file'. This issue has been fixed. Also, the pid file
939 will be removed when the server shuts down.
941 2008-02-03 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
944 - Game names that are recognized as the floodgate mode are now
945 /^floodgate-\d+-\d+$/.
946 - Floodgate could not schedule the next time when it was the next
947 day. This issue has been fixed.
949 2008-02-02 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
952 - Implemented a new feature, Floodgate mode, for covenience with
953 public rating games. Now there is a special game "wdoor-900-0".
954 Matching players for that game is scheduled each 30 minitues.
956 2007-11-03 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
959 - Support Ruby 1.8.6 patch level 111 (or higher) and GSL 1.10 (or higher).
960 It may not work with lower verions.
962 2007-09-06 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
965 - The logic to detect Oute-Sennichite was not complete. Both players
966 (checking side and escaping side) may cause Oute-Sennichite. The old
967 logic only cared for the checking player. This issue has been fixed.
969 2007-06-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
972 - Initial version. This web server is an interface between HTTP and
973 shogi-server. Shogi-server commands will be available over HTTP. As
974 of now %%LIST and %%WHO commands are supported.
976 - Bumped up GAME_LIMIT (from 10) to 15 because the calculation of
977 rates sometimes went wrong (infinite values).
979 2007-04-21 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
982 - Implemented `CHALLENGE' command, and the server will respond with
983 `CHALLENGE ACCEPTED'. Note that this command is dummy for this server
984 because it is only available for CSA's official testing server and does
985 not belong to the CSA standard protocol. Therefor, when clients receive
986 `CHALLENGE ACCEPTED' from this server, they must ignore it.
987 - Show revision in a start up message.
989 2007-04-01 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
992 - Implemented one of the keepalive protocol in CSA protocol; If clients
993 send LF, the server sends back LF.
994 - More care for socket errors.
996 2007-03-27 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
998 * [mk_rate] When there were too few games to rate players (i.e. no
999 player to rate), mk_rate caused an error. Now it no longer shows
1002 2007-03-10 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1004 * [mk_html] Popup shows additional information.
1006 2007-03-02 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1009 - Use WEBrick for server framework.
1010 - Daemon mode is available.
1012 2007-02-26 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1015 - Failed to show usage. This issue has been fixed.
1016 - Initial start of the server failed beacause of empty players.yaml.
1017 This issues has been fixed.
1019 2007-02-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1022 - Show groups in the order specified in players.html.
1023 - Players who gamed recently have a background color.
1025 - Implemented half-life effect. Numbers of win/lose decrease by this effect.
1027 2006-11-26 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1029 * [shogi-server] Sente (gote) was able to move gote's (sente's) hand.
1030 That move should be illegal. This issue has been fixed.
1032 2006-11-01 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1034 * [mk_rate] Skip "abnormal" games, which were finished because of
1035 network failure or communication error. Recently some programs seem
1036 to have a lot of tries to connect to the Shogi Server at wdoor for
1037 debugging. We should ignore such games for a while to get a meaningful
1040 2006-10-30 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1042 * [mk_rate][mk_html]
1043 - Put players into "connected" groups in order to
1044 show a correct, meaningful rating. In the group, each player has at
1045 least a game with other players.
1046 - The format of players.yaml was updated.
1047 * [shogi-server] Followed the new format of players.yaml.
1049 2006-10-08 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1051 * [mk_rate] Corrected making win_loss_matrix.
1053 2006-10-02 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1055 * [mk_rate] players who never win or lose are not rated in order
1056 the calculation to complete.
1058 2006-09-30 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1060 * [shogi-server] The CSA mode supports the trip in a password.
1062 2006-09-22 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1064 * [shogi-server] Refactored the login procedures.
1066 2006-09-21 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1068 * [mk_rate] It failed parse draw games. Now this bug has been fixed.
1069 * [mk_html] Add CSS to look better.
1071 2006-09-15 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1074 - Remove the trip in a password. Now the password is hashed.
1076 - Support @NORATE syntax in a name, which avoids the player is
1079 2006-09-09 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1082 - Support a new command, %%VERSION. It shows the server's revision#.
1084 2006-09-07 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1087 - Re-design: trip is now a suffix of the password, not name.
1088 - Simplified the output of %%RATING.
1090 - Support "@" indentificaton in a name; players with same
1091 before-@-names are mapped to one.
1093 2006-09-05 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1095 * [mk_rate] Fix a bug. It solves the correct rate.
1097 2006-08-18 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1099 * [mk_rate] Re-design.
1100 - Correct the equations.
1101 - Apply deaccelerated Newton method.
1103 2006-08-16 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1106 - Fix a bug. Now it can see black/white players in a csa file.
1108 - Add a space in the output of %%RATING.
1110 2006-08-14 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>

1113 * Add mk_html, which generates html from players.yaml
1114 * Fix test/test_board.rb. Now it works.
1115 * Add test/TC_ALL.rb to run all test cases.
1116 * [shogi-server] Fix a bug. Now it can show %%RATING even if it has no

1130 * Fix the max length of the login name with a trip.
1131 * Add a comment line about the rated game status in the CSA file.
1132 * Remove the rating system, which will be calculated by another
1135 2006-08-01 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
1137 * Add a command, %%RATING, to show a ranking sorted by rates.
1139 2006-07-31 Daigo Moriwaki <daigo at debian dot org>
