Version 0.2.7
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
* Optionaly ave the remote IdP entityId in the environment
* Shibboleth 2 interoperability
Version 0.2.6
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
* Fix XSS/DOS vulnerability in repost handler.
2.2.91 - January 26th 2010
--------------------------
A new Perl binding, fix for backward compatibility with old versions of glib,
LassoLogout API is more robust since it does not need anymore for all SP logout
to finish to work, new macro lasso_list_add_new_xml_node, add support for
WS-Security UsernameToken (equivalent of poor man HTTP Digest Authentication),
make public internal APIs: lasso_session_add_assertion,
lasso_session_get_assertion and lasso_session_remove_assertion.
2.2.90 - January 18th 2010
--------------------------
Lots of internal changes and some external one too.
There is a new api to force, forbid or let Lasso sign messages, it is called
lasso_profile_set_signature_hint.
Big overhaul of the ID-WSF 1 and 2 codes, and of the SAML 2.0 profiles. Now all
SAML 2.0 profile use common internal functions from the lasso_saml20_profile_
namespace to handle bindings (SOAP,Redirect,POST,Artifact,PAOS). New internal
API to load SSL keys from many more formats from the public API.
In ID-WSF 2.0, Data Service Template has been simplified, we no more try to
apply queries, it is the responsability of the using code to handle them.
In bindings land, the file bindings/utils.py has been stuffed with utility
function to manipulate 'type' tuple, with are now used to transfer argument and
type description, their schema is (name, C-type, { dictionary of options } ),
they are now used everywhere in the different bindings. We support output
argument in PHP5, Python and Java, i.e. pointer of pointer arguments with are
written to in order to return multiple values. For language where the binding
convert error codes to exceptions (all of them now), the ouput value is
returned as the normal return value of the method, so only one output argument
is handled for now.
We now use GObject-introspection annotations in the documentation to transfer
to the binding generator the necessary metadata about the API (content of
lists, hashtables, wheter pointer are caller/callee owned, can be NULL or if
argument have a default value). The file bindings/override.xml is now
deprecated.
In documentation land, the main reference documentation was reorganizaed and
more symbols have been added to it. Many more functions are documented.
There is now tools to control the evolution of the ABI/API of Lasso.
version 0.8200 (upstream version 0.82).
Upstream changes:
Major Changes in 0.82 - 2010-04-13
=====================================
Still more changes to sync with Perl 5.12.0-as-released. Rewritten POD
thanks to many hands, but mostly David Golden. Vastly improved Regex
definitions from Zephram.
Major Changes in 0.81 - 2010-02-01
=====================================
Merge in changes from bleadperl that will be part of Perl 5.12.0.
Completely rewrite pure Perl code to operate exactly like the XS code,
through the creation of a character-array class called charstar. Now
the pure Perl code and XS code can be more easily be synchronized.

- Version 1.2.7 (released 2010-05-15) hilights:
* Resolved MSN Messenger login issues.
* Twitter module now uses OAuth, so it'll still work after June.
* Various other fixes and small feature additions.
- Version 1.2.6a (released 2010-04-19) hilights:
* (1.2.6a because the original 1.2.6 release had one unfortunate bug in the
Twitter module.)
* Twitter support! (Implemented by Geert Mulders.)
* Fixed issues with MSN friendly names getting lost by allowing to store
them locally (see the local_display_name MSN setting.), and worked around
problems when talking to offline MSN contacts (see the
switchboard_keepalives MSN setting).
The usual bug fixes and small feature enhancements.
- Version 1.2.5 (released 2010-03-17) hilights:
* Full support for non-away status messages.
* Ability to generate nicknames from the contact's full name, making
Facebook's XMPP server work much better with BitlBee.
* Lots of misc. bug fixes and small feature enhancements.
== Version 0.3.22 (tzdata v2010j) - 29-May-2010
* Corrected file permissions issue with 0.3.21 release.
== Version 0.3.21 (tzdata v2010j) - 28-May-2010
* Updated to tzdata version 2010j
(http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.time.tz/3225).
* Change invalid timezone check to exclude characters not used in timezone
identifiers and avoid 'character class has duplicated range' warnings with
Ruby 1.9.2.
* Ruby 1.9.2 has deprecated "require 'rational'", but older versions of
Ruby need rational to be required. Require rational only when the Rational
module has not already been loaded.
* Remove circular requires (now a warning in Ruby 1.9.2). Instead of using
requires in each file for dependencies, tzinfo.rb now requires all tzinfo
files. If you were previously requiring files within the tzinfo directory
(e.g. require 'tzinfo/timezone'), then you will now have to
require 'tzinfo' instead.
Based on PR#43374 by YAMAMOTO Takeshi, some improvements.
OMake is a build system, similar to GNU make, but with many additional
features, including:
- Support for large projects spanning multiple directories;
- Support for commands that produce several targets at once;
- Fast, accurate, automated dependency analysis using MD5 digests;
- Portability: omake provides a consistent interface on Win32
and on Unix systems including Linux, OSX, and Cygwin;
- Builtin functions that provide the most common features of
programs like grep, sed, and awk;
- Active filesystem monitoring, where the build automatically
restarts whenever you modify a source file.
Based on PR#43282 by Wen Heping.
2.7.9 --> 2.7.10
----------------
Bug fixes:
- Removed all occurrences of "as" as a variable name for compatibility
with Python 2.6.
- Installation without the netCDF module did not work.
Improvements:
- Vector.dyadicProduct() was replaced by a more efficient implementation.
- Scientific.IO.PDB: Atom objects now have a parent attribute whose
value is the containing group.
2.7.8 --> 2.7.9
---------------
License change: ScientificPython is now distributed under the
CeCILL-C license, which is an adaptation of the LGPL to French
law. The previously used CeCILL license, similar to the GPL, was
considered too restrictive.
Bug fixes:
- MPI interfaces did not work correctly with NumPy and/or Python 2.5.
Improvements:
- Compilation script for mpipython works around a Python configuration
bug under MacOS X.
- Docstrings have been cleaned up.
2.7.7 --> 2.7.8
---------------
Bug fixes:
- Due to a typo in Scientific.IO.PDBSpaceGroups, some space group
names were not found in the space group table.
Improvements:
- Vector objects can now be multiplied with NumPy scalar objects
(which is what you get when extracting numbers from NumPy
arrays). Due to the way NumPy scalars handle multiplication, the
result used to be an array rather than a Vector, which caused
various applications to crash.
- The build procedure under Windows has been improved. It can
generate a binary installer that includes the netCDF DLL,
making ScientificPython independent of a netCDF installation.
2.7.6 --> 2.7.7
---------------
Bug fixes:
- Installation on Windows didn't work because the Unix maths libraries
don't exist there.
Improvements:
- InterpolatingFunction and TensorField objects can represent
periodic functions/fields.
- DistributedComputing: the watchdog period of slave processes is now
a user-definable parameter.
- PDBSpaceGroups was simplified, making it shorter and faster to load.
- Scientific.N contains the array type object in the variable array_type.
This makes it possible to write Pyrex modules using arrays in such a
way that they always use the numeric module for which ScientificPython
was compiled.
2.7.5 --> 2.7.6
---------------
Bug fixes:
- NumPy compatibility fixes.
- Pyro 3.6 compatibility fix in DistributedComputing.MasterSlave
2.7.4 --> 2.7.5
---------------
New features:
- Scaling, inversion, and shear transformations added to
Geometry.Transformations
Improvements:
- PDB parser handles CRYST1, SCALEn and MTRIXn records
- Better identification of the Numerics package that is being used
Bug fixes:
- Scientific_affinitypropagation.c compiles with NumPy
2.7.3 --> 2.7.4
---------------
New features:
- New module Clustering.AffinityPropagation.
- New class BSP.ParRootSequence.
Bug fixes:
- Replaced float equality test in Functions.InterpolatingFunction
- Removed exception for order > 1 in Derivatives.DerivVar.__init__
- Fixed reading of non-string attributes from netCDF files.
Improvements:
- New methods getBinIndices and getBinCount in Statistics.Histogram.Histogram
- Physics.PhysicalQuantities: unit definitions added to doc string
2.7.2 --> 2.7.3
---------------
Improvements:
- Added multi-module setup for master-slave computations.
- More information available through task_manager.
- task_manager can start slave processes.
2.7.1 --> 2.7.2
---------------
Bug fixes:
- Scientific_netcdf would not compile with NumPy under Python 2.4
because NumPy also defined Py_ssize_t.
2.7 --> 2.7.1
-------------
Improvements:
- NumPy compatibility. Scientific_netcdf was revised by hand.
The Python code was run through numpy.oldnumeric.alter_code1 to
identify the critical sections, which were then all handled in
some way. It is possible that there are still incompatibilities
of the kind that numpy.oldnumeric.alter_code1 cannot detect
2.5.12hg --> 2.7
----------------
New features:
- Subpackage Scientific.DistributedComputing for easy parallelization
of independent tasks.
2.5.11 --> 2.5.12hg
-------------------
Bug fixes:
- VRML2 output would crash for scenes containing Line objects
- Pyrex implmentation of vector objects could crash instead of raising
an exception in divide operations.
- Pyrex implmentation of vector objects would raise exceptions incorrectly
under Python 2.5
Improvements:
- builds Macintosh packages with documentation and examples
2.5.10 --> 2.5.11
-----------------
Bug fixes:
- Pyrex implementation of vector objects raised exceptions in comparisons
- Pyrex implementation of vector objects did not accept negative indices
- Some object deletions during conversion to epydoc had to be reversed
Improvements:
- Two test suites
2.5.9 --> 2.5.10
----------------
Bug fixes:
- Fixed netCDF error handling
Improvements:
- Support for NumPy (not very well tested yet)
- Scientific.NumberDict more efficient
2.5.8 --> 2.5.9
---------------
Improvements:
- Scientifc.IO.NetCDF supports the new 64-bit data structures in Python 2.5
(not yet tested on a 64-bit machine)
- Docstrings modified for use with Epydoc.
2.5.7 --> 2.5.8
---------------
Bug fixes:
- Syntax error in Scientific.IO.PDB
- Attribute deletion in netCDF file and variable objects caused a crash.
2.5.6 --> 2.5.7
----------------
Bug fixes:
- Tensor-vector multiplication was incorrect with the Pyrex implementation
of vector objects.
2.5.5 --> 2.5.6
----------------
Bug fixes:
- Scientific.BSP.ParClass did not pass on __call__ and __getitem__
to local class
- Scientific.BSP.ParClass: Class wrappers did not always return the right
global object.
2.5.4 --> 2.5.5
----------------
Bug fixes:
- Scientific.IO.NetCDF.NetCDFVariable.assignValue() had incomplete error
reporting. Some errors would not raise exceptions as required.
2.5.3 --> 2.5.4
----------------
Improvements:
- A "test" method on MPI request objects permits to check if data
is available (thanks to Jakob Schiotz for this addition).
Bug fixes:
- The new Pyrex vector objects could not be pickled.
2.5.1 --> 2.5.3
----------------
Improvements:
- The class Scientific.Geometry.Vector has been reimplemented in Pyrex,
yielding much faster vector operations. There is, however, the restriction
that the vector elements must be of type "float". For the rare applications
where this condition is not fulfilled (such as
Scientific.Functions.Derivatives.DerivVector), the Python implementation
remains accessible as Scientific.Geometry.VectorModule.Vector.
2.4.9 --> 2.5.1
----------------
Improvements:
- Vector and Tensor objects permit comparison with other types
of objects (which always return False)
- Numarray can be used instead of Numeric as far as possible
(see README for details)
2.4.7 --> 2.4.9:
----------------
Bug fixes:
- Integer array attributes caused a TypeError with recent versions of
Numeric (that don't do silent casts from Long to Int any more).
Additions:
- Method "threeAngles" in Geometry.Transformation.Rotation.
2.4.6 --> 2.4.7:
----------------
Bug fixes:
- Scientific.BSP: alltrue() and anytrue() sometimes returned wrong results.
Additions:
- Scientific.Visualization.VMD can now correctly launch VMD under Windows
