Release Author: Henrik Levkowetz


This is a minor release, with some bugfixes and some enhancements. It also
contains some reworked secretariat code, which changes part of the authentication
handling in preparation for the next release (5.3.0), which will transition
the datatracker from using HTTP basic authentication, to Django's built-in
authentication scheme.

  • Merged in [7568] from rcross@amsl.com:
    Grant ISOC CEO access to announcement tool, change announcement tool from
    option IAB Executive Director to IAB Executive Administrative Manager

  • Merged in [7557] from rjsparks@nostrum.com:
    Update reference relationships (asyncronously) for new rfcs found when
    syncing with the rfc index. Fixes ticket #1347.

  • Added some datatracker development notes from the testing extension
    (pyflakes etc.) work

  • Merged in [ 7454] and [7549] from rcross@amsl.com:
    Changes to the secretariat code, to support Django authentication instead
    of basic http auth, and fixes to the tests to work with the secauth
    middleware changes.

  • Pyflakes cleanup to be compliant with pyflakes 0.8.1, which seems to find
    things 0.8.0 didn't find.

  • Changed URLs with explicit scheme from http to https. Emails that are
    sent out from the datatracker will now specify URLs with https:, rather
    than http.

  • Added a fix to exclude empty email addresses from the send list.

  • The ietf/patches directory doesn't work out as intended, and causes
    some confusion with the /a/www/ietf-datatracker/patches/ directory on the
    production server.

  • Backfilled the changelog file, back to 2.00

  • Merged in [7153] from rjsparks@nostrum.com:

    Fixed a typo in code that looks for the IRTF chair email address while
    adding replaces relationships.
    Made that code slightly more robust.
    Fixes ticket #1253
