-News for ikiwiki 1.49:

- Third-party plugins that use htmlpage() or abs2rel() to generate links

- * [ Joey Hess ]
- * Add --post-commit option, which allows for the case of a split web server
- and RCS server (or a push mirror). With this the RCS server can have a
- real post-commit hook that sshs back to the web server, and runs ikiwiki
- in post-commit mode to update the wiki.
- * Fix urls generated by mirrorlist plugin.
- * Add a templates page to the basewiki. It will automatically list all
- available templates. Rename the old templates page to wikitemplates.
- * Include the note template in the basewiki.
- * Add a popup template in the basewiki. CSS based on some by Martin Krafft.
- * Make the note, popup, and plugin templates detect missing variables and be
- self-documenting, listing the available variables.
- * Hide excess backlinks and expand using CSS trick; control quantiy via
- the numbacklinks setting.
- * Finally apply the index.html patch, with thanks to everyone who worked
- on and supported creating it (especially Tuomov). This adds a "usedirs"
- option that makes ikiwiki use foo/index.html instead of foo.html as
- output page names. It is not yet enabled by default.
- * Fix a bug in the img plugin that caused thumbnailed files to not be
- tracked properly.
- * Make the OpenID library a reccommendation of the Debian package, rather
- than just a suggests, since OpenID is enabled by default.
- * Fix a bug that caused link(foo) to succeed if page foo did not exist.
- * Fix tags to page names that contain special characters.
- * [ Josh Triplett ]
- * Use pngcrush and optipng on all PNG files.
- * Add neutral smileys ":|" and ":-|", and question icon smiley "(?)",
- with images taken from phpBB (GPL) and converted with gif2png.
- * Improvements to Description in debian/control:
- * Note that some plugins have additional dependencies, found among the
- Recommends and Suggests.
- * ikiwiki supports both RSS and Atom feeds.
- * Fix typos.
- * Add Homepage field.
- * Add XS-Vcs-Browser field.
- * [ Joey Hess ]
- * Updated French translation from JLC. Closes: #[417982](http://bugs.debian.org/417982)
- * Reorder the icon in the template above the stylesheets, to avoid icon
- flashing during page load.
- * Fix smiley plugin to scan smileys.mdwn after it's updated, which fixes
- a bug caused by committing changes to smilies.mdwn.
- * Fix display of escaped wikilinks containing anchors.
- * [ Josh Triplett ]
- * Remove stray semicolon in linkmap.pm."""]]

- * [ Josh Triplett ]
- * Add a graphviz plugin.
- * Suggests: graphviz
- * Enhance helponformatting and related documentation to supply more
- information about available preprocessor directives.
- * Add myself as a co-maintainer, with Joey's approval.
- * [ Joey Hess ]
- * Add support for PROFILE=1 to the Makefile, this turns on profiling of the
- wiki build using Devel::Profiler (Dprof can't handle ikiwiki).
- * Add a new %destsources hash, which maps between a destination file and
- the source page used to create it, ie it's the reverse of %renderedfiles.
- * Use %destsources in htmllink and urlto for 20-50% speedup. Thanks
- Josh Triplett for the idea.
- * Optimise displaytime, trimming maybe 6% off the build time.
- * [ Josh Triplett ]
- * Conflicts/Replaces/Provides the unofficial ikiwiki-plugin-table
- package, because ikiwiki now provides the table plugin, and thus has
- a file overlap with ikiwiki-plugin-table.
- * Add libtext-csv-perl to Suggests, for the table plugin.
- * Add libdigest-sha1-perl to Suggests, for sparkline and graphviz.
- * Add libtext-typography-perl to Suggests for the typography plugin.
- * [ Joey Hess ]
- * Add postformtext parameter to inline.
- * Internal version number and installdir substitutions were lost, fix.
- * Apply patch from Ethan to improve an error message that should never
- happen.
- * Patch from Tuomov to link to the directory in feeds when usedirs is in
- effect. Note that this changes permalinks, so if you are already using
- usedirs you'll have to deal with that on upgrade to this version.
- * Add feedshow parameter to inline, which can be useful for eg, removing
- old posts from feeds when permalinks change.
- * Add .dpkg-tmp to prune regexp, so that if ikiwiki is run right as it's
- being upgraded by dpkg it will ignore dpkg temp files in the basewiki."""]]

-News for ikiwiki 1.51:
-
- Some wikis need to be rebuilt on upgrade to this version, due to changes to
- page layout and the style sheet. If you listed your wiki in

- their svn repositories, with no trunk directory.
- * Minor template improvements by Alessandro.

- * Move the footer div to enclose tags and links too.

+Version 2.0 of ikiwiki is now available.
+
+With the 2.0 release of ikiwiki, some major changes have been made to the
+default configuration:
+
+* The `usedirs` setting is enabled by default. This *will* break all URLs
+ to wikis that did not have `usedirs` turned on before, unless you follow
+ the procedure described at [[tips/switching_to_usedirs]]
+ or edit your setup file to turn `usedirs` off: `usedirs => 0,`
+* [[plugins/OpenID]] logins are now enabled by default, if the
+ [[cpan Net::OpenID::Consumer]] perl module is available. Password logins
+ are also still enabled by default. If you like, you can turn either OpenID
+ or password logins off via the `disable_plugins` setting.
+
+An overview of changes in the year since the 1.0 release:
+
+* New improved URLs to pages via `usedirs`.
+* [[plugins/OpenID]] support, enabled by default.
+* Plugin [[interface|plugins/write]] added, with some 60 [[plugins]] available,
+ greatly expanding the capabilities of ikiwiki.
+* [[Tags]], atom feeds, and generally full-fledged blogging support.
+* Fully working [[todo/utf8]].
+* Optimisations, approximately 3.5 times as fast as version 1.0.
+* Improved scalability to large numbers of pages.
+* Improved scalable [[logo]].
+* Support for additional revision control systems besides svn: git,
+ tla, mercurial.
+* Some support for other markup languages than markdown: rst, textile.
+* Unit test suite, with more than 300 tests.
