== Version 2.2devel
== Version 2.2RC
The main change to this release of Tracks is the migration to Rails 3.2. We had
to remove some features because the code and dependencies were not compatible with
Rails 3.2. This may impact your scripts or mobile apps that integrate with
Tracks using SOAP XML API.
Tracks now includes support for Ruby 1.8.7 and Ruby 1.9. For development, you
need to use Ruby 1.9, version 1.8.7 is not supported by some dependencies for
testing. The next version of Tracks will only support Ruby 1.9. Support for
older versions of Ruby will be droppped.
New and changed features
* Updates to all locales
* Improvements to mobile view
* Drag and drop should work on mobile devices
* The email adres for administrator is now a global setting in site.yml, not an
attribute in the User model. This means you need to set the admin_email in
site.yml when you upgrade. (The email address is shown on the signup page)
Removed features
* The outdated code for login in using OpenID has been removed. Also the login
code for CAS and LDAP has been removed because of compatibility issues with
Rails 3.2. We plan to migrate to Devise and OmniAuth to get these features back.
* Removed the SOAP XML interface. Please use REST.
New and changed features (technical)
* Improvements to the XML and REST API
* Improvements to the MessageGateway to pass email to Tracks. Since the SOAP
interface is removed, this is a good way to import an email as a todo.
Under the hood
* Upgrade to Rails 3.2. This means Tracks makes use of the new asset pipeline
of Rails
* Uses Cache Digest. This speeds up page rendering a lot
* Migrated to Tolk for managing translations
* Upgraded to JQuery 1.8.3 and JQueryUI 1.9.0
== Version 2.1
