Item posted by Mathieu Roy <yeupou> on Mon 23 Aug 2004 01:57:58 PM UTC.
Hello,
I'm glad to announce 1.0.3 release.
Thanks a lot to everybody involved in this release. :)
The release tracking has been made with the item task #313 at Gna!
<https://gna.org/task/index.php?func=detailitem&item_id=313>
Feel free to send comments there.
Obtaining it:
-------------
- GPG-signed tarball is available at <http://download.gna.org/savane/>
- It is downloadable via CVS, with the tag REL_1-0-3
Installing it:
--------------
If you are running Savane < 1.0.3, you should run sql scripts included
in savane/update/1.0.3, as described in savane/update/README.
These scripts will handle the trivial changes on the database needed.
Also, take care to the section [SITE SPECIFIC CONTENT] of the
ChangeLog below, it will tells you which files should be added in your
site specific content directory.
Otherwise, just follow INSTALL, or INSTALL.verbose if it not enough.

ChangeLog:
----------
Changes from 1.0.2 to 1.0.3:
[SITE SPECIFIC CONTENT]
- admin/user_email.txt no longer exists.
- my/request_for_inclusion.txt has been added.
- register/projectname.txt slightly modified about the lenght of
unix group name (details in the frontend section below).
[FRONTEND]
* Cosmetics improvements (closes: task #404).
* Can handle mysql persistant link, if available.
- Clarify message sent when an user request membership, remove
an extra slash from the link given (closes: bug #441).
- Fix broken link on membership page (closes: bug #422).
- Hide CVS link if unused (closes: bug #631).
- Give appropriate information about lenght of unix group name
(closes: bug #376).
- Add anchors/links in the trackers page, to ease browsing inside
the items (closes: task #304).
* Add a special submit, only for project members, allowing them to
update a report and get back to it directly. It can be useful to
do some tasks that cannot be done at once (closes: task #256).
- Add a link to the top of each page (closes: task #554).
- Item can now be private, which means they are shown only to
tracker technicians/admins and submitters. This require some
trivial modifications of the database that can be done by running
the command:
mysql databasename < update/1.0.3/private-items.sql
or by executing the SQL commands within the file
update/1.0.3/private-items.sql by any other mean
(closes: task #111).
- Show priorities of dependencies (closes: task #553).
- Return to the item page (instead of the items list) after removing
a cc/dependancy/attached file. It will ease heavy changes made on
one item (closes: bug #462).
- Reporting trackers section now renamed statistics, heavily cleaned.
- Fix error in attached file size mentioned in mail notifications
(closes: bug #468).
- Fix a bug that made field usage "show on add" option the same
for non logged in users and logged in users (closes: bug #286).
- Feature boxes dates are now i18n compliant (closes: bug #493).
[BACKEND]
* CVS.pm: make CVSROOT/history group writable by default.
- Users and groups are now created with id starting at 5000
(closes: bug #431).
- Use single quotes by default in the configuration file, escape
single quotes. It allows admins to use non purely ascii characters
within their installation name, like @, without running into
troubles (closes: bug #283).
[DATABASE]
- Rename some initvalues: Later is now Postpone, Works For Me is now
Unreproducible (wording more common) ; For patch we talk about
applying, for task and support about doing, instead of fixing
(closes: task #566).
