After-release fix, the announcement unfortunately has the wrong
version in the repo (but the correct one in the announcement).
Sorry.

1 I'm proud to release version 1.5.0 of Roundup which has been possible |
| 4708 | 2 due to the help of several contributors. This release introduces some |
| 4796 | 3 new features, most notably modular web templating with Jinja2 as a |
| 4 templating engine (the old templating engine is still the recommended | |
| 5 one) and, as usual, fixes some bugs: | |

| 4796 | 9 - issue2550775 Added rel=nofollow to links in the journal linking to |
| 10 attachments to allow the admin to delete attachment spam and prevent | |
| 11 search engines from increasing the rankings. (John Rouillard) | |
| 12 - issue2550808 Enhanced the boolean field template function. Now by | |
| 13 default the labels generated can be clicked on and select the | |
| 14 corresponding radio button. Also can create a trivalued radiobutton | |
| 15 (yes/no/unknown) as well as customize the labels for the | |
| 16 yes/no/unknown radio buttons. (John Rouillard) | |
| 17 - issue2550807 enhance classhelp method with ability to set html | |
| 18 properties on the generated link. (John Rouillard) | |
| 19 - Support for tx_Source property on database handle. Can be used by | |
| 20 detectors to find out the source of a change in an auditor to block | |
| 21 changes arriving by unauthenticated mechanisms (e.g. plain email | |
| 22 where headers can be faked). The property db.tx_Source has the | |
| 23 following values: | |
| 24 * None - Default value set to None. May be valid if it's a script | |
| 25 that is created by the user. Otherwise it's an error and indicates | |
| 26 that some code path is not properly setting the tx_Source property. | |
| 27 * "cli" - this string value is set when using roundup-admin and | |
| 28 supplied scripts. | |
| 29 * "web" - this string value is set when using any web based | |
| 30 technique: html interface, xmlrpc .... | |
| 31 * "email" - this string value is set when using an unauthenticated | |
| 32 email based technique. | |
| 33 * "email-sig-openpgp" - this string value is set when email with a | |
| 34 valid pgp signature is used. (*NOTE* the testing for this mode | |
| 35 is incomplete. If you have a pgp infrastructure you should test | |
| 36 and verify that this is properly set.) (John Rouillard) | |
| 37 - Introducing Template Loader API (anatoly techtonik) | |
| 38 - Experimental support for Jinja2, try 'jinja2' for template_engine | |
| 39 in config (anatoly techtonik) | |
| 40 - A new jinja2 template based on Classic schema and using Twitter | |
| 41 bootstrap for responsive behaviour. Run as - | |
| 42 python demo.py -t jinja2 nuke (Pradip P Caulagi) | |
| 43 - roundup_admin.py and other scripts can now be run directly from the | |
| 44 sources dir as roundup\scripts\roundup_admin.py (anatoly techtonik) | |
| 45 - Renamed old Templates classes to Loader classes to clarify sources | |
| 46 for alternative templating engines, updated docs (anatoly techtonik) | |
| 47 - Template selection code is moved from Loader classes into cgi.client | |
| 48 limiting the responsibility of Loaders to compilation and rendering. | |
| 49 Internally, templating.find_template is replaced with | |
| 50 client.selectTemplate (anatoly techtonik) | |
| 51 - Increased generated password length to 12 symbols to slow down GPGPU | |
| 52 attacks (anatoly techtonik) | |
| 53 - Implement XMLRPC MultiCall (including test), see | |
| 54 http://docs.python.org/2/library/xmlrpclib.html#xmlrpclib.MultiCall | |
| 55 (Ralf Schlatterbeck) | |

| 62 like sqlite. Reported and fixed by Tom Ekberg. (Bernhard Reiter) | |
| 63 - Removed some old left over "rlog" references in documentation and code. | |

| 67 - Make roundup play nice with setup tools (for using with virtualenv) | |
| 68 (Pradip Caulagi) | |
| 69 - [minor] Template responsive: make demo.py work out of the box with it, | |
| 70 by setting the static_files config.ini setting to "static". | |
| 71 Footer: link fixed and hardcoded last modified date removed. (Bernhard Reiter) | |
| 72 - demo.py print location of tracker home and fully erase its directory | |
| 73 when nuking (anatoly techtonik) | |
| 74 - demo.py changing hostname in config.ini actually changes the address | |
| 75 where demo.py listens. (John Rouillard) | |
| 76 - issue2550802: Fixed date so second fraction can't cause rounding to | |
| 77 60.000 when serialising. Report and fix by Erik Hanspers. (Bernhard Reiter) | |
