1.0.4 RELEASE NOTES Nov 4, 2009
===============================

This release has one bug fix in it.  The big new things are:

1. The release packaging and installation have been redone.  There is now only
   one source package.  This includes the HTML documentation and examples.
   Use the standard "python setup.py install" to install it.

2. There is now a separate Pyke source zip file for Python 3.

Please report bugs to http://sourceforge.net/projects/pyke to:

    Support => Bugs (under Project Tracker)


INCOMPATIBILITIES WITH 1.0.3 RELEASE:

    - none.  But Pyke will want to recompile your knowledge base (.krb, .kfb,
      .kqb) files when you install this release (as usual).  This release
      introduces a new compiler_version to eliminate doing this when nothing
      in the compile process has changed in the release.


FEATURE ENHANCEMENTS:

    - Changed the release files from tarball to zip format to make it easier
      for Windows users.
    - Eliminated the separate tarballs for the HTML documentation and
      examples.  These are now included in the source zip file.
    - Eliminated the dependency on easy_install (setuptools) for installation.
      You can still use easy_install, but I no longer release separate egg
      files.  Use the source zip file instead.
    - Added a separate source zip file for the version of Pyke that runs on
      Python 3.
    - Changed the unit test harness to use doctest-tools (see
      http://code.google.com/p/doctest-tools/).  Now the top-level test script
      is called "testpyke" (was "testall").
    - Combined RELEASE_NOTES for separate releases into one file.  (Was
      separate files for each release).
    - Added a .txt suffix to all README files.
    - Renamed "copyright_license" to "LICENSE".
    - Added "About Pyke" -> "Modifying Pyke" page to HTML documentation.
    - Added a separate compiler_version to avoid unnecessarily recompiling the
      knowledge bases (.krb, .kfb, .kqb files) when a new Pyke release is
      installed with no compiler changes in that release.


BUGS FIXED:

The following bugs have been fixed:

    - Fixed bug #2881969: "copyright_license" missing from 1.0.3 tarball


1.0.3 RELEASE NOTES Oct 19, 2009
================================

This release has two bug fixes in it.  The big thing is that the source code
repository has been moved from Subversion to Mercurial.  This is the first
release under Mercurial.

Please report bugs to http://sourceforge.net/projects/pyke at either:

    forum => help
 or tracker => bugs


INCOMPATIBILITIES WITH 1.0.2 RELEASE:

    - The source code repository has been moved from subversion to mercurial
      to make it easier for people to contribute to the project.  If you have
      the source code checked out under subversion, and want to stay abreast
      of developments or contribute your changes back to the project, you will
      need to switch to Mercurial.


FEATURE ENHANCEMENTS:

    - Moved the source code repository from Subversion to Mercurial!
    - Did some enhancements to examples/web_framework/web_framework.tst to
      better report server errors.
    - Added examples/web_framework/director.html as another example html
      template.
    - Upgraded to 3.3 version of PLY.


BUGS FIXED:

The following bugs have been fixed:

    - Fixed bug #2881934: py2exe doesn't work with Pyke
    - Applied patch #2787699: hash function returns void


1.0.2 RELEASE NOTES Apr 21, 2009
================================

This fixes a few more bugs in Pyke and has several very minor enhancements.

Please report bugs to http://sourceforge.net/projects/pyke at either:

    forum => help
 or tracker => bugs


INCOMPATIBILITIES WITH 1.0.1 RELEASE:

    <none>


FEATURE ENHANCEMENTS:

    - Added zip_safe to setup.py so that the Pyke egg isn't unzipped when it
      is installed.
    - Added mention in the using_pyke.txt document that Pyke supports source
      package directories in zipped egg files.
    - Upgraded to 3.2 version of PLY.
    - Upgraded to 0.6c9 version ez_setup.py.


BUGS FIXED:

The following bugs have been fixed:

    - Fixed bug 2729315: IndexError: list index out of range.
    - Fixed an error in the logic_programming/rules/backward_chaining.txt
      documentation file (reported by Carlo, aka Mr.SpOOn).


1.0.1 RELEASE NOTES Apr 2, 2009
================================

This fixes a few bugs in Pyke and cleans up the error reporting in the
web_framework test script.

Please report bugs to http://sourceforge.net/projects/pyke at either:

    forum => help
 or tracker => bugs


INCOMPATIBILITIES WITH 1.0 RELEASE:

    <none>


FEATURE ENHANCEMENTS:

    - Changed the test script for the web_framework example to better report
      errors from the server process.
    - Misc minor code changes for Python3.0 support.


BUGS FIXED:

The following bugs have been fixed:

    - Fixed bug 2709888: Strange behavior with two iterable.
    - Fixed an error in the examples/web_framework/README file.
    - Fixed testdocs bug which required wxPython to be installed to run the
      test (even though the test doesn't use wxPython).


1.0 RELEASE NOTES Mar 18, 2009
================================

This fixes two bugs in Pyke and is Pyke's first full release version!

Please report bugs to http://sourceforge.net/projects/pyke at either:

    forum => help
 or tracker => bugs


INCOMPATIBILITIES WITH 0.7 RELEASE:

    <none>


FEATURE ENHANCEMENTS:

Added the following features:

    - Changed the .krb parser to iterate, rather than recurse, on the list of
      rules in the file so that it doesn't hit the recursion limit on large
      .krb files.
    - Now including a copy of PLY with the Pyke sources so that I can release
      the compiled pyke/krb_compiler/*_tables.py files with Pyke and not have
      PLY try to recompile them (which generally gets a permission violation
      because normal users can't write the Python's site-packages directory).
    - Added the option to pass any module within the package to identify the
      source package to knowledge_engine.engine().


BUGS FIXED:

The following bugs have been fixed:

    - Fixed bug 2569021: string literals don't work in .kfb files.
    - Added mention of 'engine' variable within the rules documentation to fix
      bug 2588191.
