Details:

  • Added an email sent success message after sending out a WG review
    announcement. Todo: Add equivalent messages in all other situations
    where email is sent out, for consistency.

  • Added various things which lets us use Django's messages framework to
    give feedback to users. This includes adding the messages middleware in
    settings.py, adding a message display are at the top of the page base
    template, and adding style setting for message display.

  • Tweaked test/mergedevbranch in a number of places in order to simplify
    handling (merging and testing) of multiple merges.

  • Merged [4909] from rjsparks@nostrum.com:
    Reimplemented clear_ballot to close the existing ballot and create a
    new one. Changed the all_positions code to only return synthetic
    no-positions for current ADs when a ballot is actually open

  • Merged [4904] from adam@nostrum.com:
    Fixing conflict list; adding AD column.

  • Merged [4885] from rjsparks@nostrum.com:
    Refactored close_open_ballots, creating a way to close one abllot at a
    time. rewrote the clear ballot code to close each open ballot and open a
    new one

  • Modified the format of the changelog to confirm fully to the debian
    changelog format.

  • Added a simple page to show release information parsed from a release's
    changelog file.

  • Improved the handling of iCalendar timezone information -- instead of
    simplified VTIMEZONE information generated from a template, the VTIMEZONE
    information for a meeting's timezone is read from file (where it presumably
    has been generated from the Olson timezone database, for instance using
    vzic.

  • Added an utility script to extract information about the outgoing
    confirmation request email related to a draft submission.

  • Added a management command to generate bibxml files for drafts. It's
    not fully cooked yet, as it needs to differentiate between documents which
    are currently drafts, and those that have been published as RFCs, but the
    basics are there.

  • Add an name utility function to return a name's initials. Handle names
    with an uppercase surname to the left of the given name correctly.

  • Added support for reverse-order (i.e., Japanese, Chinese, and other)
    names with uppercase family name in the draft submission author extraction.

  • Added an agenda_note field to meeting.models.Meeting, and added
    display of content (if any) in html and txt agendas.

  • Fixed a misleading error message given when disallowed character occurs
    in a draft filename.
