16PyKota NEWS :
17
18    - 1.02alpha :
19   
20        - Improved documentation.
21       
22        - You can now set the tcp/ip port on which the Quota Storage
23          Server is listening, see sample configuration file for details.
24       
25        - Better error handling if PygreSQL is not installed or not
26          available.
27       
28    - 1.01 :
29   
30        - The configuration file now accepts an option   
31          to choose the recipient(s) of the email messages :
32         
33            - DevNull means no one will receive them.
34            - User means only the user will receive them.
35            - Admin means only the admin will receive them.
36            - Both means the User and the Admin will receive them.
37           
38        - The configuration file now uses hard-coded default values
39          when an option is not set. See sample configuration file
40          for details.
41         
42        - Manual pages are included since 1.00, but I forgot to   
43          add this information to this file.
44         
45        - Redistribution terms for the official package have 
46          softened and are now fully GPL compatible :
47          unrestricted modification is now allowed even for
48          the version number.
49         
50    - 1.00 :
51   
52        - edpykota now accepts a --noquota option. This
53          disable quota checking while still doing page
54          accounting. This is really useful for people
55          who don't want to limit their users but want
56          to know how much pages they print.
57         
58        - Some untested scripts were added to retrieve
59          the life time page counter of non-SNMP printers.
60         
61        - Every directory now has a specific README file. 
62       
63    - 0.99 :
64   
65        - Under some circumstances while the user wasn't allowed
66          to print, he didn't receive any email message. It is
67          now fixed.
68         
69        - When an user wasn't allowed to print, the quota for
70          the previous user wasn't updated. This is now fixed.
71         
72    - 0.98 :
73   
74        - Correctly handle the case where the printer is switched off.
75       
76        - Small bug wrt syslog fixed.
77       
78    - 0.97 :
79   
80        - edpykota accepts wildcards on its command line for users/groups too
81          if the --add option is not set, e.g. :
82         
83              $ edpykota --printer lp --softlimit 50 --hardlimit 100 "jer*"
84             
85        - If no user name is passed at all, then a default wildcard of "*"
86          which means apply the command on ALL users for this printer is used.
87         
88        - Small bug fixes.
89       
90    - 0.96 :
91
92        - Options requester, policy, admin, adminmail and gracedelay can now
93          be set either globally or per printer. The printer option has
94          priority if both are defined.
95
96        - More powerful configuration parser.
97       
98        - If all options are defined globally, there's no need to
99          define a section for each printer in the configuration
100          file anymore. Just define a [global] section and it's ok.
101
102    - 0.95 :
103
104        - External requesters for printers finally added.
105
