-Revision history for Biber
-
-0.8 11-02-2011
- * Forces biblatex format for month field
- * Added support for remote data sources
- * Added experimental support for RIS data sources
- * Took out -a and -d flags. These are no longer very useful as the increasingly
- sophisticated biblatex options cannot be set on the command line
- anyway and so these flags are less and less relevant
- * New inheritance model in sync with biblatex defaults
- * Bug fixes
-0.7.4 05-02-2011
- * Fix for mincrossrefs leaking across sections (biblatex SF bug #3173032)
-0.7.3 03-02-2011
- * Performance tuning for sorting
- * Text::BibTeX 0.51 for increased macro stack space
- * Support for old BibTeX month macros by default
- * Re-write of datasource processing to allow for modular plugins
- * Generalised nosort option.
- * Merged LaTeX::Decode into Biber::LaTeX::Recode and added encoding
- to deal with inputenc's limitations for PDFLaTeX users

- * Bug fixes
-0.7.2 08-01-2011
- * Improved latexmk compatibility more
-0.7.1 07-01-2011

- * Bug fixes
-0.7 05-01-2011
- * Completely re-written sorting routine using Schwartzian transform
- for real multi-field support and per-field sorting settings.
- * Bug fixes
-0.6.9 (dev beta)
- * Bug fixes
-0.6.8 (dev beta)
- * Generalised sorting behaviour in several respects
- * Bug fixes
-0.6.7 (dev beta)
- * Bug fixes

-0.6.4 (dev beta)
- * Bug fixes
-0.6.3 (dev beta)
- * Outputs labelname name list to the .bbl
- * Support for dynamic sets and simpler static set interface
- * Misc bug fixes
-0.6.2 (dev beta)
- * Internal cleanup of structure code
- * Misc bug fixes
-0.6.1 (dev beta)

- and field combinations/formats
- * Added option validate_structure to turn on structural checks
- * Renamed option validate -> validate_control
- * Renamed option output-directory -> output_directory
- * Added labelname and labelyear as possible sort specifications
- * Misc bug fixes
-0.6 20-11-2010
- * First non-beta release
- * More abstracted and extensible crossref inheritance model
- * U::C dependency to 0.67
- * sortcase and sortupper options now take same argument forms as in biblatex
- * Misc bug fixes
-0.5.7 09-10-2010
- * Misc bug fixes
-0.5.6 04-10-2010
- * Latex character macro decoding is now better defined in the whole
- (re)encoding workflow.
- * "inputenc" option is now "bblencoding"
- * "locale" option is now "sortlocale"
- * New option "sortupper"
- * Unicode::Collate sorting is now default as version 0.61 of this
- has XS module and CLDR tailoring.
- * Added binary dist build scripts
- * Removed bundled Module::Build as there are some conflicts with
- later versions. This is less of a problem anyway because the
- binary build makes it less necessary to make builds easy on perl<5.10
- * Misc bug fixes
-0.5.5 29-08-2010
- * Biber::BibTeX moved to Biber::Input::BibTeX. If upgrading, please remove
- your installed <perl lib>/Biber/BibTeX.pm, just to be tidy
- * New aliases for EPRINT classes and types implemented (see BibLaTeX docs).
- * Biber now resolves XREFs as well as CROSSREFs so one less LaTeX pass is needed
- * Allows UTF-8 citekeys. Requires Text::BibTeX >= 0.46 and a fully UTF-8
- aware TeX macro package (e.g. XeTeX or LuaLaTeX). Normal LaTeX with \inputenc
- will not work because the UTF-8 it uses is incomplete, macro based and not native.
- * RecDescent parser is no longer supported or included. If upgrading, please remove
- your installed <perl lib>/Biber/BibTeX directory, just to be tidy
- * Now requires LaTeX::Decode >= 0.03
- * Stricter version dependency for Text::BibTeX. Older than 0.42 is
- rather useless for complex names.
- * Re-factored and enhanced auto-re-encoding of .bib/.bbl. With biblatex
- 0.9c, Biber handles all reencoding.
- * Misc bug fixes
-0.5.4 04-08-2010
- * Case-sensitive sorting option
- * Multi-section support. Only one biber pass needed to process all
- bib sections using extended biblatex 0.9b .bbl format.
- * .aux file is no longer used by biber - all information is passed
- in .bcf file.
- * Misc bug fixes
- * LaTeX::Decode is now a separate CPAN module and is no longer included
-0.5.3 19-03-2010
- * Changed semantics of --outfile and --output-directory. --outfile
- is now relative to --output-directory. If --outfile is absolute, it
- is stripped to the filename and the path discarded. Absolute .aux
- paths are stripped to filename for appending to --output-directory.
- * Updated PRD to use new encoding option names. Now works with -e.
- * sortlos was not settable to use bib sort order
- * With Text::BibTeX >= 0.42, will do all name/initials generation with btparse
- library.
- * Abstracted BBL output into Biber::Output class for better re-use and potential
- for output formats other than .bbl.
- * Synced uniquename .bcf values with change in biblatex 0.9a
-0.5.2 04-03-2010
- * Locale fixes
- * Uniquename fixed to match BibLaTeX option values
- * Improved error message for malformed names
- * Fixed config file problems under windows and also added option to ignore config file
- * Bug with conflicting case between citations and bib entries
- * Moved pure perl parsename to PRD.pm
- * Re-write of name parsing to use Text::BibTeX::Name by default
- * Fields which can be null are explicitly flagged
- * Add THANKS file
- * Die early when biber is called without argument
- * Fixed Mac config path error
- * .bib parse continues after certain errors
- * regularised collate options processing
- * field nameaddon was missing from Biber::Constants
- * Improved warning message for missing backend=biber
- * SF bug 2952347 fix (empty date range end)
- * uniquename counter was being provided incorrectly
-0.5.1 15.02.2010
- * Remove support for legacy control files (\jobname-blx.bib):
- Biber now only reads .bcf files written by biblatex with the
- option "backend=biber".
- * Improved handling of "uniquename" and "namehash".
- * Don't apply latexescape in bbl output, as it breaks math formatting.
-
-0.5 13.02.2010
- * Supports all changes introduced by biblatex 0.9
- * Moved all parts relating to the experimental BibLaTeXML format to the
- "biblatexml" branch on the git repo
- * Communication between biblatex and Biber can be done through a
- XML-based config file (extension .bcf): this is enabled with the
- experimental biblatex option "backend=biber"
- * Biber can now be customized with a configuration file
- * Considerable refactoring and cleanup of the code
- * Further enhancements to the test suite
- * Improved logging mechanism
- * More robust parsing of personal names
- * Ignore certain prefixes and diacritics in sort strings, for
- instance ʿAlī is sorted under A, and al-Hasan under H. This can
- be customized in the configuration file (biber.conf).
- * New command-line option --output-directory (like TeX)
- * Many, many bugfixes :)
- (See the output of "git log" for all details...)
-
-0.4.3 23.07.2009
- * With biblatex option "backend=biber" and biber option --v2
- the new experimental control file \jobname.bcf is used,
- which brings in many new features, such as per-entrytype
- settings.
- * More sophisticated/customizable sorting mechanism
- * More extensive test suite
- * Improved BibLaTeXML schema
- * improved handling of BibLaTeXML (enable nested children,
- formatting elements, nosort elements)
- * Do not apply latexescape() by default on xml strings
- * Skip title handling in BibLaTeXML when not existing
- * Ignore maxline, add option wraplines
- * Built-in sort is now default (option --fastsort)
- * Sorting with Unicode::Collate is possible with option --collate
- * Make tests succeed w/o Parse::RD and Regexp::Common
- * Don't output date and urldate in the bbl
- * Add missing fields "date" "urldate" "organization" "annotator"
- "foreword" and "eventtitle"
- * Use Data::Dump instead of Data::Dumper for debugging
- * Fields "library" and "remarks" are now skipped
- * Bugfix for aliases (e.g. address, school)
- * Bugfix: process urldate to get urlyear,urlmonth,urlday
- * Remove illegal value shorttranslator from labelname option
- * Changed biberdebug option to debug
- * Changed option inputencoding to bibencoding
-
-0.4.2 25.04.2009
- * New option --inputencoding to handle 8-bit encoded bib files
- * $BIBINPUT environment is now searched
- * Improved parsing of personal names
- * @comments are now silently ignored
- * Fixed handling of @preamble; multiple preambles are allowed
- * Warnings and errors behave more like BibTeX
- * Alias fields are automatically converted (e.g. address -> location)
- * Take care of "phdthesis" and "mathesis" types
- * Cite keys of bib files are now case-insensitive
- * Default Unicode collation now uses the table "latinkeys.txt"
- (this is much faster than "allkeys.txt" which contains rules for
- all Unicode glyphs)
- * Unicode::Collate parameters can be passed as a command-line option
- * Faster sorting (with option -f) is also possible for specific
- locales given with option --locale (this is OS-dependent however)
- * PRD grammar is now precompiled
- * bbl output is now wrapped acc to maxline option
- * Empty fields are no longer printed in the bbl
- * Sorting is much improved.
- * Use sortstring separators 0 1 2 like biblatex.bst
