Summary: IETF 87 Code Sprint
Release Date: Thu, August 1, 2013 at 4:26 PM UTC
Release Author: Henrik Levkowetz


This release provides the code from the IETF-87 code sprint, and also
a number of fixes to things reported during the IETF, and some enhancements
requested.

Noticeable enhancements are that document search now permits you to search
for all kind of documents, not only for drafts and RFCs (you can searc for
charters, slides and whatnot); that Research Group chairs now have the
ability to manage their documents in the tracker; and that the tracker now
has the ability to generate WG and draft email aliases, which permits us to
plan a transition of the email aliases to the main ietf mail server.

There are however many other much requested fixes and enhancements :-)

From markus.stenberg@iki.fi:

  • Added support and scripts for generation of wg- and draft-aliases.
    Fixes issue #713.

From adam@nostrum.com:

  • Added the capability to search for all kinds of documents in the main
    datatracker search page. Fixes bug #838.

  • Added tooltip capability to document tabs, and tooltips for disabled
    IESG Evaluation/Review tab. Fixes bug #448.

  • Added a document link to the emails sent on discuss/comment changes.
    Fixes bug #916

From rjsparks@nostrum.com:

  • Added related documents to the set of documents checked for IPR
    declarations when building last call text. Partially addresses #1071.

From suresh.krishnan@ericsson.com:

  • When working group chairs added an annotation to a document, the date
    on the history entry was wrong. It has now been fixed. Fixes issue #1046.

  • Fixed the last call processing code to identify the new placeholder
    writeup. Fixes issue #884.

    meta-information.

  • Added RG chairs and secretaries to those authorized to edit group document
    meta-information.

  • Tweaked the charter-and-milestones presentation in order to not blow up on
    bad character encodings in charter file.

  • Added back the Request Publication action (regression loss) on draft
    pages for the non-ietf streams.

  • Fixed a bug in rendering the AD/Shepherd column in document list pages,
    when no AD is associated with a document. Fixes issue #1079.

  • Modified the doc stream-change edit form to reset doc.group to None on
    stream changes. Fixes issue #1078.

  • Fixed double plural s caused by the use of pluralize in the
    template and plural forms for the group headers returned by
    fill_in_search_attributes(). Fixes issue #1077.

  • Fixed the incorrect blankline placemnt in the refactored template for
    id-index and id-abstracts, when generating abstracts. Fixes issue #1076.

    all forward / reverse relationship of a kind or set of kinds.

  • Fixed the handling of help pages for doc states.

  • Added a direct link to the cookie options in use by the datatracker to
    the lefthand menubar. Fixes issue #1075.

  • Fixed a regression: restore diff pane in history page for RFCs.

  • Fixed a regression: display of full draft/rfc text now again obeys the
    full_draft cookie setting.

  • Changed the mimetype detection code to only read first 4k block of
    file, not the whole file.

  • Made the code which uses the magic module to determine file type and
    encoding work with both the old and new interface to python-magic.

  • Added a guard to prevent duplicate RFC-Editor notifications for
    approved documents, and added logging to the notification routine.
