Added RSS feed support to Evennia. This uses the @rss2chan command to tie a feed to an in-game channel. Updates to the feed will henceforth be echoed to the channel. The reader requires the python-feedreader package to be installed.

Added at_initial_setup hook. Create a module in game/ and point to it with settings.AT_INITIAL_SETUP_HOOK_MODULE. This module must contain at function at_initial_setup(), which will be called very last in the setup procedure. If no module is given or fail to load, this will fail quietly.

Worked with admin interface, cleaning up and adding functionality. There are still some strange behaviour that makes e.g. the presence of inlines to auto-create empty database objects for some strange reason. Inlines are turned off at the moment (so there is no convenient way to add attributes from the admin interface at this time). Creating players now work, but one needs to create all three components (User, Player, Character) in one go and tie them together. The User-admin form was changed to also support multi-word usernames (django default didn't allow spaces).

Restructured the way typeclasses are loaded. This makes it possible to run at_init() hooks at initiation also for objects without any custom cases for character/players. at_init() hooks are called only when an object is initiated. This means that a room's at_init() hook is only called when someone looks or enters it or a script operates on it, for example, rest of the time these objects are dormant, most efficiently.

Added SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) support, inspired by patch by rcaskey (issue 79). The automatic certificate creation does not work well; so the system instead instructs and gives example on how to create your own using third-party tools. I can connect to the server using a twisted-client instance, but not that many regular mud clients seem to support SSL at all (and if they do I don't know to configure them ...)

Added a new 'contrib' folder for optional code snippets not suitable for the server core. Added contrib/menusystem for implementing a multi-choice menu system. Added contrib/lineeditor - a powerful line editor with commands mimicking VI. Also added an example NPC class using the menu system to allow for a conversation. As part of creating these contributions, lots of bugs were found and fixed. A new and more powerful cmdparser was intruduced as a result - this one is much easier to understand than the old one, while being more efficient and versatile. All testsuites were updated. Also: Resolves issue 165.

Run Migrate. Implemented a full separation between Player and Character - Players (OOC entities) can now also hold cmdsets and execute commands. This means that "disconnecting" from a Character becomes possible, putting the Player in an "OOC" state outside the game. This overall makes the game much more stable since there used to be issues if the character was destroyed. Having an OOC set also avoids the previous problem of @puppeting into an object that didn't have any cmdset of its own - you couldn't get back out! A new default OOC-Cmdset handles commands available to a player while OOC. Commands in this set are applied with a low priority, allowing "IC" mode to give precedence if desired.
...
This change meant several changes to the lock and permission functionality, since it becomes important if permissions are assigned on the Player or on their Character (lock functions pperm() and pid() etc check on Player rather than Character). This has the boon of allowing Admins to switch and play/test the game as a "Low access" character as they like.
Plenty of bug fixes and adjustments. Migrations should make sure to move over all data properly.

IMC (inter-mud-communication) is working again. Evennia's implementation connects an existing Evennia channel to an IMC2 network/channel seamlessly. One can listen to more than one IMC2 channel, but only send to one IMC channel, as defined when setting up the connection. One can list imc channels and muds connected to the network. We have only limited support for imctell at this point: It works for IMC users to send imc-tells to users on Evennia, but seemingly not the other way around. Evennias imctell function at least doesn't seem to properly send tells to my Talon IMC user.

Moved Connect screens (the text screen first seen when connecting) away from the database and into a module in gamesrc/world. This module allows for conveniently adding new connect screens on the fly. More than one screen in the given module will mean a random screen is used.

Migration needed. Changed how connection screens are defined, rather than being a database model, they are created on-the fly. I didn't migrate over the screen data into the new module file though, so if you had custom connection screens, you need to manually add them to the new module in gamesrc/world/connection_screen.py.

- This implements an updated, clearer and more robust access system. The policy is now to lock that which is not explicitly left open.
- Permission strings -> Lock strings. Separating permissions and locks makes more sense security-wise
- No more permissiongroup table; permissions instead use a simple tuple PERMISSIONS_HIERARCHY to define an access hierarchy
- Cleaner lock-definition syntax, all based on function calls.
- New objects/players/channels get a default security policy during creation (set through typeclass)
As part of rebuilding and testing the new lock/permission system I got into testing and debugging several other systems, fixing some
outstanding issues:
- @reload now fully updates the database asynchronously. No need to reboot server when changing cmdsets
- Dozens of new test suites added for about 30 commands so far
- Help for channels made more clever and informative.

Removed the admin media files from the distribution again. Instead the server will now create the necessary symlink (Linux) or copy (Windows) of the default files in django/contrib/admin/media at initial startup. Currently only tested under Linux. If you don't want to re-run the initialization, copy/link the admin directory to ADMIN_MEDIA_PREFIX yourself. This deals with issue 124.

Also added a 'remove' functionality to the migrate.py script, for easily getting back the normal syncdb operation (useful when deleting/resetting the database a lot).

's suggestions as of yet - it uses a separate data object passed through msg() to communicate between the server and the various protocols.

After lots of discussions, default commands where moved from game/gamesrc/commands/default to src/commands/default in order to make it clearer which parts are updated as part of evennia and which can be tweaked at heart's content. New templates where left in gamesrc/commands that should hopefully make it clearer how to extend the command system. Also game/web was moved to src/web - we'll likely extend this from game/gamesrc/web in the future. If you already did extensions you should just have to edit your import paths and make use of the new cmdset template supplied.

The unit testing was for commands was split out from src/objects/tests.py into the new src/commands/default/test.py in order to keep the testing modules thematically grouped with the things they are testing.
