16PyKota NEWS :
17
18    - 1.01 :
19   
20        - The configuration file now accepts an option   
21          to choose the recipient(s) of the email messages :
22         
23            - DevNull means no one will receive them.
24            - User means only the user will receive them.
25            - Admin means only the admin will receive them.
26            - Both means the User and the Admin will receive them.
27           
28        - The configuration file now uses hard-coded default values
29          when an option is not set. See sample configuration file
30          for details.
31         
32        - Manual pages are included since 1.00, but I forgot to   
33          add this information to this file.
34         
35        - Redistribution terms for the official package have 
36          softened and are now fully GPL compatible :
37          unrestricted modification is now allowed even for
38          the version number.
39         
40    - 1.00 :
41   
42        - edpykota now accepts a --noquota option. This
43          disable quota checking while still doing page
44          accounting. This is really useful for people
45          who don't want to limit their users but want
46          to know how much pages they print.
47         
48        - Some untested scripts were added to retrieve
49          the life time page counter of non-SNMP printers.
50         
51        - Every directory now has a specific README file. 
52       
53    - 0.99 :
54   
55        - Under some circumstances while the user wasn't allowed
56          to print, he didn't receive any email message. It is
57          now fixed.
58         
59        - When an user wasn't allowed to print, the quota for
60          the previous user wasn't updated. This is now fixed.
61         
62    - 0.98 :
63   
64        - Correctly handle the case where the printer is switched off.
65       
66        - Small bug wrt syslog fixed.
67       
68    - 0.97 :
69   
70        - edpykota accepts wildcards on its command line for users/groups too
71          if the --add option is not set, e.g. :
72         
73              $ edpykota --printer lp --softlimit 50 --hardlimit 100 "jer*"
74             
75        - If no user name is passed at all, then a default wildcard of "*"
76          which means apply the command on ALL users for this printer is used.
77         
78        - Small bug fixes.
79       
80    - 0.96 :
81
82        - Options requester, policy, admin, adminmail and gracedelay can now
83          be set either globally or per printer. The printer option has
84          priority if both are defined.
85
86        - More powerful configuration parser.
87       
88        - If all options are defined globally, there's no need to
89          define a section for each printer in the configuration
90          file anymore. Just define a [global] section and it's ok.
91
92    - 0.95 :
93
94        - External requesters for printers finally added.
95
96        - Full internationalization (english and french are supported)
97 
98        - More complete quota usage report
99
100        - CGI script to access to the quota usage report
101
102        - Several bugs fixed.
