2 * Fixed a bug in which some printed or exported notes appeared in
3 alphabetical order instead of your chosen ordering.
6 * Added a dynamic preview of your current color selections to the color
7 picker. This lets you see what the selected colors will look like as you

10 easier to set both foreground and background colors.
11 * Fixed a Chrome/Safari bug in which popups such as those for export and
12 color were not positioned correctly if the page was scrolled past the top.
13 * Fixed a bug in which certain popups on the left and right side of the page
14 scrolled along with the page instead of staying fixed in place.
15 * Fixed a bug in which detecting or saving colors set on note titles did not
19 * Added a toolbar color button for setting text and background colors.
20 * Added a "start a new discussion" link to each discussion forum page.
21 * Updated Luminotes Server INSTALL file with instructions for setting the
22 http_url configuration setting.

28 browser's context menu.

30 PayPal payments from going through properly.
32 1.6.11: April 28, 2009
33 * Rewrote the way that the toolbar is implemented, laying the groundwork for
34 themes in a subsequent release.
35 * Changed some of the "+" buttons to be more descriptive: "+ notebook" and
37 * Moved search field up above "notes" heading.
38 * Fixed a bug in which toolbar buttons didn't depress based on the current
39 location of the text cursor.
40 * Fixed a bug in which discussion forum bylines ("Posted by...") were
41 sometimes duplicated several times on a given post. Now bylines are
42 displayed below each post rather than within it.
43 * Fixed a Firefox bug in which removing some bold text and then typing new
44 text would make the new text bold. Now, if you completely remove some bold
45 text (rather than just a portion of it), any new text that you type will be
47 * Fixed a Firefox bug in which copying and pasting text between notes
48 inserted line breaks in the pasted text.
50 1.6.10: March 20, 2009
51 * Faster uploads and downloads for users of luminotes.com.
52 * Luminotes Server improvements:
53 * Fixed a bug in examples/luminotes_debian_initscript that prevented the
54 "stop" command from working properly.
55 * Added support for using the nginx web server with Luminotes. See the
56 INSTALL file for more information.
57 * Fixed a problem in which copying and pasting text containing newlines
58 caused the pasted newlines to appear as spaces.

62 strip out all formatting from the currently selected text.
63 * Luminotes discussion forums now change the discussion thread link color
64 based on whether there are any new posts since you last visited the
65 thread. This makes it much easier to keep up with a particular discussion.
66 * Fixed a bug in which the filename of an exported HTML file was just
67 "export" instead of being based on the notebook name.
70 * You can now print your entire notebook. Just click the "print" link on the
71 left side of the page.
72 * You can now print an individual note. Just click the "tools" tab on a note
73 and then "print this note".
74 * Changed the order of exported HTML and CSV notebooks so that after all the
75 "startup" notes are included, the remaining notes are included in
76 alphabetical order (instead of reverse chronological order).
77 * Instead of converting unsupported HTML tags to plain text when a note is
78 saved, Luminotes now simply strips out all unsupported tags. This further
79 improves copy and pasting text from programs like MS Word.
80 * Fixed a compatibility problem with newer versions of SQLite. (Luminotes
81 was using a reserved keyword as an identifier.) This only affected those
82 people who installed Luminotes Server themselves.
84 1.6.7: February 23, 2009
85 * When you export your notebook as an HTML or CSV file, the saved filename is
86 now based on the name of your notebook, for instance "my-to-do-list.html"
87 or "ideas-for-my-novel.csv".
88 * Several minor improvements to CSV importing and exporting.
89 * Converted the existing HTML and CSV export features to work as separate
90 export plugins. This means that a new export format can be implemented as
92 * There is now a downloadable free trial for Luminotes Desktop!
94 1.6.6: February 16, 2009
95 * Luminotes now recognizes "mailto:" links as external links, so you can
96 include links to email addresses within your notes.
97 * Several Luminotes Desktop improvements:
98 * There is now a "close" link at the top of the page to completely shut
99 down the process when you're done using Luminotes.
100 * Luminotes Desktop now attempts to always run on a particular port number,
101 which means that as long as it's running you can reach it from a constant
103 * You can now copy the Luminotes Desktop web address and paste it into
104 another web browser without getting an error message.
105 * Now, if you copy a link from another web page and paste it into a note,
106 Luminotes properly recognizes it as an external link (rather than a link to
108 * Fixed a bug in which clicking "compare versions" during a conflict didn't
109 actually display the changes between the two versions.
111 1.6.5: February 12, 2009
112 * Now ignoring even more unneeded HTML tags from an MS Word copy-and-paste.
113 * Fixed a bug in Internet Explorer in which hiding a focused note could cause
114 the next note to display incorrectly.
115 * Fixed a bug in Internet Explorer in which opening a note by following a link
116 didn't display the opened note correctly.
117 * Fixed a bug in which a drag-and-dropped note occasionally didn't resize back
118 to its original size.
119 * Re-fixed a bug in which hiding a focused note could (temporarily) leave an
120 empty gap at the bottom of the page.
122 1.6.4: February 12, 2009
123 * Now ignoring certain unneeded HTML tags that end up in your notes when you

131 any other note failed to show that note's previous revisions.
132 * Fixed a bug in which hiding a note could produce a spurious save conflict
135 1.6.3: February 11, 2009
136 * Introduced cache-busting code to make pages update more reliably after a
138 * Added initial (untested) support for Internet Explorer 8 beta.
140 1.6.2: February 11, 2009
141 * Added drag-and-drop note reordering.
142 * Fixed a visual bug in which a second title within a note had insufficient
143 vertical spacing above it.
145 1.6.1: January 29, 2009
146 * Fixed a bug in which hiding a focused note could (temporarily) leave an
147 empty gap at the bottom of the page.
148 * Fixed a bug in which performing a search when search results were already
149 open would just hide the initial search results without showing the new
151 * Fixed a bug in which emptying the trash worked but produced a spurious
154 1.6.0: January 27, 2009
155 * Switching between notebooks and loading notebooks is now much faster.

159 * Start a search: Ctrl-slash
160 * Save the current note: Ctrl-space
161 * Fixed various bugs related to the subscription page.
162 * Dropped support for Internet Explorer version 6. But version 7+ is still
165 1.5.12: December 30, 2008
166 * Fixed a bug in which clicking on the notebook rename text field ended the
167 renaming prematurely.
168 * Potential fix for a bug in which product downloads and attached file
169 downloads occasionally did not complete in Internet Explorer.
170 * Added a 30-day free trial to all Luminotes subscription plans, and updated
171 the pricing page accordingly.
173 1.5.11: December 27, 2008
174 * Added a font selection button to the toolbar.
175 * Decreased the default note text font size, so now you can see more of your
177 * Added rounded corners to several display elements.
178 * Improved the layout on low-resolution displays (1024x768 and below).

186 1.5.10: December 4, 2008
187 * Fixed a bug in which certain new installations of Luminotes Desktop
188 on Windows yielded an "uh oh" error on initial launch. This bug did
189 not occur during upgrades. It only affected new installations.
191 1.5.9: December 3, 2008
192 * When you hover the mouse over a link and a link pulldown appears, that
193 pulldown will now automatically disappear soon after you move the mouse
195 * Changed the "new note" key from ctrl-N to ctrl-M so as not to conflict with
196 the "new browser window" key used in most web browsers.
197 * Fixed a Chrome/Safari bug in which ending a link didn't always work.
198 * Fixed a rare Chrome/Safari bug in which pressing backspace sometimes made
199 the text cursor vanish.

201 such as when backspacing an empty list element.
203 1.5.8: November 24, 2008
204 * Fixed a bug that prevented notes from being automatically saved in certain
206 * Fixed a rare bug in which Luminotes sometimes indicated that the current
207 note was saved even when it wasn't.
208 * Fixed a bug that prevented deleted notes from being displayed within the
211 1.5.7: November 18, 2008
212 * Rearranged the links on the left and right side of the wiki editing page
213 so that the note title links have a little more horizontal breathing room.
214 * You can now add an existing note directly to the note tree, instead of
215 having to click "options" -> "show on startup".
216 * Improved site navigation by adding more useful links to the page footer.
217 * Converted the Luminotes blog to work like a forum, so now you can post
218 comments on Luminotes blog posts.

227 * NOTE: After upgrading to this release, you must restart memcached to clear
228 the cache. Failing to do so will cause errors with the Notebook object.
229 This does not apply to Luminotes Desktop.
231 1.5.6: November 12, 2008
232 * Greatly improved the speed of wiki searching for Luminotes Server and
233 luminotes.com. Also included a section on search performance within the
235 * Added permalinks to blog and discussion forum posts.
236 * Fixed a bug in Internet Explorer in which clicking a link sometimes caused
237 the browser window to scroll to the destination note, only to immediately
238 scroll back to the clicked link.
239 * No longer displaying annoying warning messages about Safari/Chrome support
240 being considered "beta".
241 * NOTE: Luminotes Server only, not Luminotes Desktop: Before you start
242 Luminotes Server after this upgrade, run the following command as the
243 PostgreSQL superuser (usually "postgres"):
244 echo "create language plpgsql;" | psql luminotes
245 Then, once you start Luminotes Server, be prepared to wait up to several
246 minutes while the database search indices regenerate.
248 1.5.5: November 6, 2008
249 * Improved speed of Luminotes Desktop by adding some database indices. This
250 will help in particular for larger notebooks with many notes.

252 new Luminotes release. This applies to all Luminotes products.
253 * Added code to support Luminotes discussion forums.

258 * Fixed a visual conflict between your web browser's search field
259 autocomplete and Luminotes built-in suggest-as-you-type feature.
260 * Fixed an occasional bug that caused unexpected logouts. The solution was
261 to move the session information into the database where it could be
263 * NOTE: After upgrading to this release, you must restart memcached to clear
264 the cache. Failing to do so will cause errors with the Note object. This
265 does not apply to Luminotes Desktop.
266 * NOTE: After upgrading to this release and starting Luminotes, you can
267 optionally convert all existing user sessions with the script
268 tools/convert_sessions.py. This is not necessary for Luminotes Desktop.

275 * Safari and Chrome web browsers are now supported (beta):
276 * You can now create and end links.

283 by removing all implicit session locking.
284 * Fixed a bug that broke the Luminotes Desktop product download page if
285 PayPal took too long to notify Luminotes of the purchase.
287 1.5.2: October 1, 2008
288 * Leading/trailing spaces in note titles are now ignored when making links
289 to such notes. This means that creating a link titled "my note" to a note
290 called "my note " now works properly.
291 * Leading/trailing spaces and newlines in note titles and contents are now
292 stripped out when exporting to CSV.
293 * Fixed a bug in which clicking the "export" link when the current note was
294 unsaved did not open the export pulldown.
295 * Changed the warning about Safari/Chrome/Opera incompatibility to be an
296 in-page message instead of a popup alert so as to be slightly less
299 1.5.1: September 28, 2008
300 * Implemented CSV exporting, so now you can export all of your notes to a
301 CSV spreadsheet file. This currently doesn't include revision history or
303 * Improved CSV importing so you can export a CSV of your notes from one
304 Luminotes installation and import that CSV into a different Luminotes
306 * Fixed a bug in which the image preview page didn't correctly handle
307 filenames containing special characters.
309 1.5.0: September 12, 2008
310 * Initial release of Luminotes Desktop!
311 * Fixed a Luminotes Desktop Internet Explorer bug in which note links within
312 the "download as html" document pointed to notes in the local Luminotes
313 installation instead of notes within the stand-alone document.
314 * Fixed a bug in which Luminotes Desktop file attachment did not always work
315 due to incorrect upload progress reporting.
316 * In the revision changes pulldown, no longer showing "by desktopuser" in

321 1.5.0 beta 1: August 27, 2008
322 * Completed the Luminotes Desktop Windows installer.
323 * Improved logging, so tracebacks in production and desktop mode actually go
324 to a file. Also removed logs on startup to prevent endless log growth.
325 * Added a usb_luminotes.bat Windows batch file and a usb_luminotes.sh shell
326 file to run Luminotes from a USB drive.
327 * Moved "files" directory into ~/.luminotes or %APPDATA%\Luminotes.
328 * NOTE: After upgrading to this release, you must move your Luminotes
329 "files" directory into ~/.luminotes/ or you will not be able to access
332 chmod 700 ~/.luminotes
333 mv files ~/.luminotes
335 1.4.27: August 22, 2008
336 * Fixed a bug in tools/initdb.py and tools/updatedb.py that caused them to
337 only use some of the configured settings.
338 * Progress on Luminotes Desktop, including the Windows installer.
340 1.4.26: August 20, 2008:
341 * Ported all database code to support SQLite in addition to the existing
342 PostgreSQL support. This is a necessary first step for Luminotes Desktop.
343 * Updated all unit tests to test against an in-memory SQLite database. This
344 increases unit test code coverage to include Luminotes SQL code.
345 * Fixed a rare bug in which undeleting a note via "undo" sometimes does not
346 show the undeleted note even if the undelete is successful.
348 1.4.25: August 11, 2008:
349 * Fixed a bug in which the character encoding of uploaded CSV files was not
350 properly detected and used to decode the file. Note that this fix
351 introduces a new dependency: http://chardet.feedparser.org/ found in the
352 python-chardet package.
354 1.4.24: August 11, 2008:
355 * Added a light gray line under note title text to make it clearer that it's
356 a title as opposed to just bold text.
357 * Fixed a bug in Firefox 3 in which disabling title text did not work.
358 * Fixed a bug in Firefox 2 and 3 in which pasting a paragraph tag into a
359 note caused the enter key to change from inserting a line break tag to
360 inserting a paragraph tag.
362 1.4.23: August 11, 2008:
363 * New notebook import feature for importing notes from a CSV file. (Beta.)
364 * Enforcing maximum note length after stripping the note of any disallowed
365 HTML tags instead of before. This makes Luminotes work better when cutting
366 and pasting lots of text from MS Word.
368 1.4.22: August 1, 2008:
369 * Skipping clearing of messages/errors if they haven't been open long enough

372 replace the link destination.
374 1.4.21: July 30, 2008:
375 * Fixed bug in IE 7 in which there was too much horizontal spacing at very
377 * Increased speed of note hiding animations.
379 1.4.20: July 30, 2008:
380 * By popular demand, added a "save" button that becomes grayed out when
382 * Now displaying "saving" status text in addition to "loading".
383 * Made both left and right navigation areas of the page have a fixed
384 position, so they stay in one spot even when you scroll your notes.
386 1.4.19: July 29, 2008:
387 * When scrolling to and then highlighting a note, do so serially instead of
389 * Made speed of scrolling to a note or message slightly faster.
390 * Removed big yellow "sign up for free" box from the sign up page itself.
392 1.4.18: July 28, 2008:
393 * Fixed a bug where clicking the link for an updated note in an RSS feed did
394 not properly redirect to that note after login.
395 * "Nothing but notes" mode now hides the toolbar as well.
396 * Rephrased some of the links to the signup page.
398 1.4.17: July 24, 2008:
399 * Updated the product tour with an analogy to index cards.
401 1.4.16: July 18, 2008:
402 * Slightly increased the size of the file upload pulldown to look better in
403 various browsers (and not cut off text within the frame).
404 * When you invite other people to view or edit your notebook, you can now
405 see the invite link they'll receive in case you want to copy and paste it
408 1.4.15: July 15, 2008:
409 * Reduced the size of the font within the upload pulldown to match the other
411 * Added some frequently asked questions (and answers) to the pricing & sign
413 * Updated the original FAQ page accordingly.
415 1.4.14: July 12, 2008:
416 * Fixed a bug in which pressing tab/shift-tab when a suggest pulldown was
417 open caused the current text to indent/outdent.
419 1.4.13: July 11, 2008:
420 * New "revert" button to roll back a note's contents to an earlier revision.
422 1.4.12: July 7, 2008:
423 * Fixed a bug in which tab/shift-tab for indending/outdenting nested lists
424 no longer worked. Also made it work in IE as well (which it never has).
425 * controller.Root.guide() now accepts an optional note_id parameter.
426 * Fixed a bug in which clicking a note title suggestion from within the link
427 info title field sometimes didn't update the link properly. This was due
428 to a race condition between the link info pulldown's onblur/onchange
429 handler and the suggestion onclick handler, both of which tried to update
430 the link, title, and summary at about the same time.
431 * Possibly fixed a bug in which the displayed suggestions sometimes did not
432 reflect the most recent characters typed.
434 1.4.11: June 29, 2008:
435 * Fixed bug in which bolding of suggest-as-you-type search text was case
436 sensitive. Now it's case insensitive.
438 1.4.10: June 29, 2008:
439 * New suggest-as-you-type feature for creating a new link, setting a link's
440 destination, and even for searching a notebook.
441 * Fixed a bug where typing a space within a link in IE caused the space
442 to be added to the end of the link.
443 * Backspacing at the end of a link in IE no longer ends the link.
445 1.4.9: June 25, 2008:
446 * When linking to a note by title, the note resolution is now
447 case-insensitive instead of case-sensitive.
449 1.4.8: June 23, 2008:
450 * Replaced "add new notebook" link with new notebook button next to
452 * Reorganized and renamed some notebook links on the right side of the page.
454 1.4.7: June 21, 2008:
455 * New favicon.ico image that looks slightly less dated.
457 1.4.6: June 18, 2008:
458 * New screenshot and new tour shots.
460 1.4.5: June 18, 2008:
461 * You can now resize embedded images (small, medium, or large).
462 * Fixed a bug that potentially caused link pulldowns to open in the wrong
463 location when the page was scrolled past the top.
465 1.4.4: June 17, 2008:
466 * Links to embedded images now show up within the note tree's list of links.
467 * Links to files that have not yet been uploaded (or have been deleted) are
468 now excluded from the note tree's list of links.
470 1.4.3: June 16, 2008:
471 * Fixed a bug in which an image thumbnail could not be loaded unless
472 you had a valid session. This prevented thumbnails from showing up
473 if, for instance, you were reading the Luminotes blog from an RSS
474 reader that didn't establish a session.
476 1.4.2: June 16, 2008:
477 * Fixed a bug that caused image files to get deleted if there were multiple
478 images embedded within a single note.
479 * Prevented a link pulldown from auto-opening by hovering if another
480 pulldown is already open.
482 1.4.1: June 16, 2008:
483 * Implemented support for embedded images within wiki notes.
484 * You can now open a link pulldown by simply hovering the mouse over a link
486 * Tweaked the popup positioning code to prevent popups from getting smashed
487 into the right side of the page.
488 * Updated tools/set_plan.py to automatically update a user's group
490 * Removed Google AdWords <script> tag from distributed Luminotes tarball,
491 as not every installation of Luminotes uses AdWords.
494 * Implemented some basic user administration features, allowing you to
495 create Luminotes users yourself.
496 * Added new rate plans with support for user administration.
497 * Wrote a tool for manually updating a user's rate plan: tools/set_plan.py
498 * Refactored some of the client-side form-handling code to cut down on
500 * NOTE: After upgrading to this release, you must restart memcached to clear
501 the cache. Failing to do so will cause errors with the User object.
504 * Added some minor product page tweaks like meta description tags.
507 * Removed key binding for title button (ctrl-T), since it was interfering
508 with tab opening in Firefox.
511 * Attempting to access the RSS feed for a non-existent notebook now
512 displays a somewhat informative message in the feed instead of just
513 silently raising an error.
516 * Fixed a bug where image preloading loaded incorrect paths for
520 * Fix for bug where read-write notebooks that the anonymous user had
521 read-only access to would show up as read-only, even when logged in.
524 * Potential fix for bug where caching of Notebook objects can cause
525 read-write notebooks to display as read-only.
528 * Improved performance of searching multiple notebooks.
531 * Searching now displays results from multiple notebooks and not just the
535 * Decreased some font sizes so more note links don't wrap as much.
538 * Improved the detection of whether an existing note has been altered and
539 thus needs to be saved to the server.
540 * Expanded workaround for IE iframe positioning bug to include IE 7.
