Announcing ezmlm-idx version 6.0.0

Greetings.

I have just uploaded the 6.0.0 release of ezmlm-idx to:
	http://www.ezmlm.org/archive/6.0.0/

RPMs will be coming shortly.  Since the choice of database modules is no
longer a compile-time option, the RPM setup is being completely redone.

ezmlm-idx-6.0.0, 2006-11-30
===========================

This version introduces two major changes in how ezmlm-idx operates.

First, the naming of subscriber lists has been revamped.  In previous
versions, the subscriber list would be identified by a full path to the
list directory.  In this version, the lists are identified by their
subdirectory name within the list base directory.  Full paths are
supported in some places for backwards compatibility, but only where
they fall within the list directory.  This coincidentally removes the
absolute path requirement in all places except ezmlm-make, and
eliminates the need for (and use of) all the "sql" files not in the list
base directory.

Second, all three subscriber database libraries (standard, MySQL, and
PostgreSQL) have been moved into dynamically loaded plugins.  If you
were previously using MySQL or PgSQL support, please follow the
instructions in UPGRADE.idx.  After this configuration, this version is
backwards configurable with previous versions.

The plugin support also adds support for an optional DIR/subdb file
which supercedes DIR/sql.  The file should contain the subscriber
database plugin name followed by the content that would have gone into
DIR/sql.  If it is not found, DIR/sql is used instead with an assumed
plugin name of "sql".  ezmlm-make will read in and convert DIR/sql if
DIR/subdb does not exist, but it writes out DIR/subdb.

Make sure to read the UPGRADE.idx file for more information on what
steps may be necessary to use this version.
