[phpOpenTracker-general] phpOpenTracker-1.5.0 Released

phpOpenTracker is a framework solution for the analysis of website
traffic and visitor behaviour. It features a logging engine that, either
invoked as a web-bug by a HTML image tag or embedded with two lines of
code into your PHP application, logs each request to a website into a
database. One installation of phpOpenTracker can track an arbitrary
number of web-sites. Through the phpOpenTracker API you can easily
access the gathered data and perform complex operations on it, like for
instance the analysis of your visitors' clickpaths.

(+ Added, * Changed, - Removed, ! Note)

10-Apr-2005, Version 1.5.0

  ! For over a year now I have neither worked on or worked with
    phpOpenTracker because I lacked the time. Although I could not
    test this phpOpenTracker 1.5.0 release myself I am releasing
    it as "stable" now because I got enough positive feedback during
    its long testing phase.

    phpOpenTracker 1.5 will be the last release series (with bugfixes
    in phpOpenTracker 1.5.X releases) of phpOpenTracker 1. The little
    time I can invest into the phpOpenTracker project I will spend on
    the development of phpOpenTracker 2.

31-Dec-2004, Version 1.5.0 (Release Candidate 2)

  + Added 'plugin_data' array to the phpOpenTracker Session Container.

    This array can be used by phpOpenTracker Logging Engine plugins to
    store arbitrary data between requests.

    The array elements should be namespace-protected by using a
    sub-array with the name of the corresponding plugin as its key:

      $container['plugin_data']['my_plugin_name']['my_data'] = $my_value;

  + Added 'logfile' configuration directive to configure path/filename
    of the logfile phpOpenTracker optionally logs warning and error
    messages to.

  * The 'visitors_online' API call now return additional data.

    (Contribution by Jean-Marc Fontaine <[email protected]>)

  * Changes to the MyISAM and MyISAM Merge table creation scripts:

      + Added the 'PACK_KEYS=1' option to the pot_accesslog table
        to enable prefix compression for the 'accesslog_id' column.

      + Re-added the 'DELAY_KEY_WRITE=1' option to all tables.

  * Changes to the PostgreSQL table creation scripts to use the
    correct INT4/INT8 column types instead of INTEGER.

    (Patch by Peter Adams <[email protected]>)

  - Deprecated the 'delay_key_write' configuration directive.

26-Apr-2004, Version 1.5.0 (Release Candidate 1)

  + Added a new mode of operation to the MySQL Merge Tables handler
    that maintains separate accesslog/visitors tables per day.
