+ikiwiki (2.40) unstable; urgency=low
+
+ ikiwiki now has an new syntax for preprocessor directives, using the
+ prefix '!':
+
+ [[!directive ...]]
+
+ This new syntax no longer relies on spaces to distinguish between
+ wikilinks and preprocessor directives. Thus, wikilinks can use spaces
+ in their link text, and preprocessor directives without arguments (such
+ as "toc") need not use a trailing space.
+
+ To enable the new syntax, set prefix_directives to true in your ikiwiki
+ config. For backward compatibility with existing wikis,
+ prefix_directives currently defaults to false. In ikiwiki 3.0,
+ prefix_directives will default to true, and wikis which have not yet
+ converted to the new syntax will need to set prefix_directives to false
+ in their setup files.
+
+ To convert your wiki to the new syntax, ikiwiki provides a new script
+ ikiwiki-transition. It will convert preprocessor directives in
+ all files given on the command line. To convert an entire wiki:
+
+ find wikidir/ -type f -name '*.mdwn' -print0 | xargs -0 ikiwiki-transition prefix_directives
+
+ Even with prefix_directives disabled, ikiwiki now allows an optional '!'
+ prefix on preprocessor directives (but still requires a space). Thus, a
+ directive which uses a '!' prefix and contains a space will work with
+ ikiwiki 2.40 and newer, regardless of the value of prefix_directives.
+ This allows the underlay to work with all ikiwikis.

+ikiwiki (2.30) unstable; urgency=low
+
+ Ever feel that ikiwiki's handling of RecentChanges wasn't truely in the
+ spirit of a wiki compiler? Well, that's changed. The RecentChanges page is
+ now a static page, not a CGI. Users can subscribe to its rss/atom feeds.
+ Custom RecentChanges pages can be easily set up that display only changes
+ to a subset of pages, or only changes by a subset of users.
+
+ All wikis need to be rebuilt on upgrade to this version. If you listed your
+ wiki in /etc/ikiwiki/wikilist this will be done automatically when the
+ Debian package is upgraded. Or use ikiwiki-mass-rebuild to force a rebuild.
+
+ With this excellent new RecentChanges support, the mail notification system
+ is its age (and known to be variously buggy and underimplemented for
+ various VCSes), and so ikiwiki's support for sending commit mails is REMOVED
+ from this version. If you were subscribed to commit mails, you should be
+ able to accomplish the same thing by subscribing to a RecentChanges feed.
+
+ The "svnrepo" and "notify" fields in setup files are no longer used, and
+ silently ignored. You may want to remove them from your setup file.

+ The template plugin has begin to htmlize the variables passed to templates.
+ This is normally what you want, but to get the old behavior and get at the
+ raw value, you can use `<TMPL_VAR raw_variable>` in a template.

+ikiwiki (2.16) unstable; urgency=low
+
+ Many of the pages in ikiwiki's basewiki have been moved and renamed in this
+ release, to avoid the basewiki including pages with names like "blog".
+ Redirection pages have been left behind for these moved pages temporarily,
+ and will be removed later.
+
+ If you use the calendar plugin, ikiwiki is now smarter and your nightly
+ cron job to update the wiki doesn't need to rebuild everything. Just pass
+ --refresh to ikiwiki in the cron job and it will update only pages that
+ contain out of date calendars.

+ikiwiki (2.14) unstable; urgency=low
+
+ This version of ikiwiki is more picky about symlinks in the path leading
+ to the srcdir, and will refuse to use a srcdir specified by such a path.
+ This was necessary to avoid some potential exploits, but could potentially
+ break (semi-)working wikis. If your wiki has a srcdir path containing a
+ symlink, you should change it to use a path that does not.

+ikiwiki (2.9) unstable; urgency=low
+
+ Since ikiwiki 2.0 was released, some limitiations have been added to what
+ ikiwiki considers a WikiLink. In short, if there are any spaces in between
+ the brackets, ikiwiki no longer considers it to be a WikiLink. If your wiki
+ contains things meant to be WikiLinks that contain spaces, you will need to
+ fix them, by replacing the spaces with underscores.
+
+ WikiLink have always been documented to not contain spaces, but bugs in
+ ikiwiki made it treat some text with spaces as WikiLinks. Most of these
+ bugs were fixed in version 2.2, and a final bug was fixed in this 2.9
+ release. These fixes are necessary to avoid ambiguity between
+ WikiLinks and PreProcessorDirectives. Apologies for any inconvenience
+ these bugs (and their fixes) may have caused.

+ In this version the rst plugin allows raw html to be embedded in rst files.
+ As long as the htmlscrubber is enabled, this should be safe. If you are
+ using the rst plugin without the htmlscrubber in a publically writable wiki,
+ you should turn on the htmlscrubber.
