Ok, so I have looked back through my mails and notes to see what we have
addressed and what we didn't address. This leads in combination with
your remarks to a small TODO. I'd like to give my "bug triage"
views/opinions on these issues concerning their relevancy for the 0.5
release. Please comment on them:
1. Fix minor bugs concerning Page#{next,prev}_link which are broken.
I agree this should be fixed for 0.5.
2. The generated .htaccess has a hardcoded /control path, but if the blog
live under a subdir, this doesn't work.
Can be addressed with the Hobix Reboot, leave it as is for now.
3. If you use Hobix with lighttpd, all hobix.cgi stuff doesn't work because
lighttpd has no MultiViews support (i.e. /blog/hobix.cgi/some/path).
Also for Hobix Reboot, easily solved with Camping.
4. The publisher only works partially atm.
I would mark it as an experimental thing for the 0.5 release, not everything
works, but some parts do. The rest can be left for the Hobix Reboot.
5. There seems some rudimentary login support, but couldn't find anything
about it
No idea what to do with this, but I can imagine this can be done
properly with Camping later on.
6. If you enable comments.rb, it overrides some header/footer that the
user might have adapted in hobix.yaml. However, code-wise it seems to
want to append the headers, so something is wrong.
I tried to find how this works and what goes wrong, but couldn't find it?
It would be nice to have this fixed for 0.5 too, however it is not really
critical.
7. hobix.cgi is not created with executable perms.
This is quite mindboggling when you enable something that applies the patch
that creates hobix.cgi. I reckon either the patch format has to be extended
to do this. Opinions?
8. My sections index.html pages are no longer generated. While I am
using tags now it is still confusing when you go up in a directory,
i.e. from foo/bar/SomePost to foo/bar and you see an old index page.
Is this a bug?
I'd like this to be solved for 0.5 too, but I'm not really knowledgable
about this part of Hobix. Anyone?
9. If comments are enabled, it can add an <comments/> field/element to
the RSS feed so ppl can directly go to the comment section from their
feedreader.
This is feature request, postpone it for after 0.5 ;)
So, I think that 1 and 8 and preferable also 6 and 7 should be fixed for the
0.5 release. Items 2, 3, 4, 5 and 9 can be done later on.

Sure, but note that 0.3c -> 0.4 is already included in doc/Changelog.
I can imagine though you want to announce these changes in the 0.5 release
tough, since that release went by so silently. There is no tag nor
log entry for it in SVN, so I deduced it to be 2005-05-22.
0.4 -> 0.5
* Added trackback support (courtesy of Leon Bredt).
* Added experimental publisher web interface plugin for administration.
* Added new plugins:
- akismet.rb: spam blocker for comments using Akismet
- bloglines.rb: sidebar Bloglines blogroll
- calendar.rb: sidebar calendar
- flickr.rb: sidebar Flickr "badge" (recent photos)
- recent_comments.rb: sidebar recent comments
- sections.rb: sidebar section map
- tags.rb: sidebar tag map
* Improved tagging support.
* New patch system to apply patches on blogs enabling certain features,
facets and plugins.
* Added new remote API that is usable over HTTP.
* Performed Atom (1.0) and RSS output fixes.
* Improved XHTML compliant format.
* Fixes for support of Ruby >= 1.8.3.
* Added support for staging (using the HOBIX_ENV environment variable).
* Performed a lot of small misc fixes!
The list above lists the major changes, though a lot more has been done
since 0.4. These are probably to detaillistic or implementation-oriented
for the users. :)
Kind regards,
Paul
