It could be restored if there is real demand. +*** Random Track Choice + +This has been completely rewritten to support new features: + - tracks in the recently-played list or in the queue are no longer + eligible for random choice + - there is a new 'weight' track preference allowing for non-uniform + track selection. See disorder(1) for details. + - there is a new configuration item replay_min defining the minimum + time before a played track can be picked at random. The default is + 8 hours (which matches the earlier behaviour). + - recently added tracks are biased up; see new_bias and new_bias_age + in disorder_config(5). + +*** Web Interface + +This has been largely rewritten. The most immediate benefits are: + - the search page is integrated into the choose page, and includes + links to parent directories + - if you try to do something you have insufficient rights for, + instead of getting an error page or nothing happening, you are + redirected to the login page + +Customizers should find their lives easier: the syntax is less onerous, +it is possible to define macros to avoid repetition, and the +documentation is less monolithic. + +** Disobedience + +There is now a new user management window. From here you can add and +remove users or modify their settings. + +Relatedly, the server will only allow remote user management if you set +remote_userman to 'yes'. + +** Miscellaneous + +scripts/setup now honors command line options, and can set up network +play as well as the local default sound device. + +** Bugs Fixed + + #2 Search results should link to directories +#10 Non-uniform track selection +#11 Bias random selection to newly added tracks +#16 Cookie expiry causes user to be silently logged out and not + subsequently redirected to login page +#20 Broken aliasing rules + +* Changes up to version 3.0.2 + +Builds --without-server should work again. + +The web interface is a bit more liberal in the cookie value syntax it +will accept. + +Clients fail more gracefully if no password is available. + +* Changes up to version 3.0.1 + +Debian upgrades from 2.0.x should now work better. + * Changes up to version 3.0 Important!
