This speeds up + operations such as saving and rescanning; it also allow hand-editing + of the data files while the bot is running, since a rescan will load + the changed data files without overwriting them with a useless save + before. Of course this only works if there are no pending changes in + the running bot. + +2007-01-12 Giuseppe Bilotta + + * Server timeout: rework the server timeout code. Instead of PINGing + the server unconditionally every server.ping_timeout seconds, we only + PING it if we don't receive anything in the user-chosen timeout (lazy + PING). The code rewrite also seems to have fixed the "bot stalling + doing nothing" problem, which seemed to have been a consequence of + @socket.select not having a timeout. + +2006-11-01 Giuseppe Bilotta + + * SSL support: patch from Robin H. Johnson + +2006-10-28 Giuseppe Bilotta + + * A-Z game: try to guess the word the bot is thinking of: every miss + helps by reducing the range of allowed words, until it's so small + around the correct one that you can't miss it. + +2006-10-27 Giuseppe Bilotta + + * Flood protection: first attempt at penalty-based flood protection. + This should make rbot much less prone to Excess Floods *and* still + serve normally without excessive delays. + +2006-10-25 Giuseppe Bilotta + + * HttpUtil: Strings returned by get_cached now have a cached? method + which returns true or false depending on whether the result was taken + from the cache or not; this can be exploited by plugins that parse the + result in some particular way, since they can now skip the parsing + stage if they cache the parse result. + +2006-10-24 Giuseppe Bilotta + + * HttpUtil: initial implementation of proper caching based on + last-modified and etag HTTP headers + 2006-10-17 Giuseppe Bilotta * Salut plugin: handles (multilingual) salutations (hello/goodbye)
