3 * This update is a major switch, all local patches have been incorporated
4 into upstream version again. Furthermore, html and rss flavours are now
5 included in the blosxom script directly and the old 1993 and index
6 flavours are not included anymore, to get rid of some further historical
7 annoyances with the packaging.
9 * MOST IMPORTANTLY: This update adds a new tag into rss feeds:
10 <guid isPermanentLink="true"> which helps to notice duplicates and not let
11 them appear again for aggregators. Though, for the time of switching it
12 might mean that your last entries might appear as new when aggregators
13 (like e.g. PlanetPlanet on planet.debian.org) don't check <link> (which
14 already should be cached) when finding <guid>. This is unfortunate but not
15 really avoidable. To limit impact a new plugin was added: 00RssLimit which
16 turns the syndicated feed in only pick up the last 5 entries.
18 * The plugin timezone got disabled and gets only installed into a new
19 /etc/blosxom/plugins-available directory which is the first step to the
20 planned blosxom-plugins package. If you found it useful and made use of it
21 just symlink it from the plugins directory.

27 * The parameter -f for specifying a different configuration file was dropped
28 due to security concerns. It was an illuse of the CGI.pm function.
29 It got replaced by a more flexible option: set the environment variable
30 BLOSXOM_CONFIG_FILE to an alternative configuration file you want to use.
31 This is especially useful in server contexts where one can use e.g.
32 apache's SetEnv directive.
