tmda-cgi 0.09 "Fluorine" is released.

Get it from
http://tmda.sourceforge.net/tmda-cgi/releases/tmda-cgi-0.09.tgz

NOTE: tmda-cgi is now officially a beta-version.  This indicates that
the hard push to add features is over and now our focus is on finding
and fixing bugs.  Is this a hard "feature freeze"?  I hope so.  ;-)
Unless something really critical or uber-cool comes up, I would like
to defer all new features until after we release 1.00.

Here are the new additions to UPGRADE:

If you are upgrading from a release of tmda-cgi < 0.09:

* display directory has been updated again.  You'll need to copy in
  the new one or use a symbolic link.

* Confirm accept URLs (read: URL confirmations) have changed format.

  This version of tmda-cgi will accept both old-style (TMDA 0.77 and
  earlier) and new-style (TMDA 0.78 and later) confirm accept URLs,
  and TMDA 0.78 is required to support URL confirmation for virtual
  users.

  In other words, the compatibility works like this:

  +----------------+----------------+------------------------------+
  | TMDA           | tmda-cgi       | Confirm-accept URLs support  |
  +----------------+----------------+------------------------------+
  | 0.77 (or less) | 0.08 (or less) | Real-users only              |
  | 0.77 (or less) | 0.09           | Broken                       |
  | 0.78           | 0.08 (or less) | Real-users only              |
  | 0.78           | 0.09           | Real-users and virtual-users |
  +----------------+----------------+------------------------------+

  IMPORTANT: If you are using TMDA 0.78 with tmda-cgi 0.08, ALL
	     confirm-accept URLs are broken.  To fix, upgrade tmda-cgi
	     to 0.09.  To avoid any problems, the upgrade sequence
	     should go like this:
             1) Upgrade tmda-cgi to 0.09
             2) Upgrade TMDA to 0.78

  NOTE: Later versions of tmda-cgi will NOT support old-style
	confirm-accept URLs (and will require TMDA 0.78 or later).

* Removed skel/install/permissions.ini and added anomalies files to
  install and uninstall which will let the sysadmin configure more
  stuff.  If you have made a special skel directory for your system,
  please consult the docs on "anomalies" so you can adapt it for your
  needs.

ChangeLogs since release 0.08

2003-05-21  Gre7g Luterman  <[email protected]>

        * tmda-cgi 0.09 is released.

        * Closed a security hole.  We strongly recommend that any
	  system using "default" authentication be upgraded.

2003-05-20  Gre7g Luterman  <[email protected]>

        * Removed Python 2.2 dependency.

        * Removed permissions.ini from install and added anomalies
	  which will let the sysadmin configure more stuff.

        * Extended iso-8859-1 codec so it works for us-ascii character
	  set.

        * Minor tweak to the short header format in the e-mail viewer.

2003-05-14  Gre7g Luterman  <[email protected]>

        * Changed the configure program so users can do the "make
	  install" as root if the current user doesn't have permission
	  to write to the web tree.

2003-05-13  Gre7g Luterman  <[email protected]>

        * Replaced standard Python iso-8859-1 decoder with my own that
	  seems to work better.

        * Removed some Python 2.2 dependencies.  Seems to work fine
	  with 2.1 now.

2003-05-06  Gre7g Luterman  <[email protected]>

        * Display international characters in both pending lists and
	  e-mails.

        * Added a stub for decoding /var/qmail/users/assign
