	  * Bio::Pathway#cliquishness is changed to calculate cliquishness
	    (clustering coefficient) for not only undirected graphs but also

	    previously written in test_pathway.rb (raises error for directed
	    graphs, and return 1 for a node that has only one neighbor node)
	    are rejected.
	  * Ruby 1.9 support: To avoid dependency to the order of objects
	    in Hash#each (and each_keys, etc.), Bio::Pathway#index is used
	    to specify preferences of nodes in a graph. Affected methods
	    are: to_matrix, dump_matrix, dump_list, depth_first_search.
	  * Bug fix in the libpath magic in test/unit/bio/test_pathway.rb.

	* lib/bio/appl/paml/baseml.rb, etc. (17 files)

	  Support for baseml and yn00 (still under construction), and
	  incompatible changes to Bio::PAML::Codeml.
	  (commit d2571013409661b4d7be8c5c9db14dbe9a9daaaf)

	  * Security fix: To prevent possible shell command injection,
	    changed to use Bio::Command.query_command instead of %x.
	  * Bug fix with incompatible changes: Using Tempfile.new.path
	    as default values are removed because this can cause
	    unexpected file loss during garbage collection.
	  * Change of method/file names: The term "config file" is changed
	    to "control file" because the term "config file" is never used
	    in PAML documents. The term "options" is changed to "parameters"
	    because the "options" have been used for command-line arguments
	    in other wrappers (e.g. Bio::Blast, Bio::ClustalW). The term
	    "parameters" is also used in BioPerl's
	    Bio::Tools::Run::Phylo::PAML.
	  * Bio::PAML::Codeml.create_config_file, create_control_file,
	    Bio::PAML::Codeml#options, and #options= are now deprecated.
	    They will be removed in the future.
	  * New class Bio::PAML::Common, basic wrapper common to PAML programs.
	    Bio::PAML::Codeml is changed to inherit the Common class.
	  * New classes Bio::PAML::Baseml and Bio::PAML::Yn00, wrappers for
	    baseml and yn00.
	  * New classes Bio::PAML::Common::Report, Bio::PAML::Baseml::Report
	    and Bio::PAML::Yn00::Report, but still under construction.
	  * New methods Bio::PAML::Codeml#query(alignment, tree), etc.
	  * test/data/paml/codeml/dummy_binary is removed because
	    the default of Bio::PAML::Codeml.new is changed to use
	    "codeml" command in PATH.
	  * test/data/paml/codeml/config.missing_tree.txt is removed
	    because treefile can be optional parameter depending on runmode.
	    test/data/paml/codeml/config.missing_align.txt is also removed
	    because test is changed to use normal control file parameters.
	
	* lib/bio/command.rb, test/functional/bio/test_command.rb

	  Improvement of Bio::Command.query_command, call_command, etc.
	  (commit e68ee45589f8063e5a648ab235d6c8bbc2c6e5ff)

	  * Improvement of Bio::Command.query_command, call_command,
	    query_command_popen, query_command_fork, call_command_popen,
	    and call_command_fork: they can get an option :chdir => "path",
	    specifying working directory of the child process.
	  * New method Bio::Command.mktmpdir backported from Ruby 1.9.0.
	  * New method Bio::Command.remove_entry_secure that simply calls
	    FileUtils.remove_entry_secure or prints warning messages.
	  * Tests are added in test/functional/bio/test_command.rb.
	  * Ruby 1.9 followup: FuncTestCommandQuery#test_query_command_open3
	    failed in ruby 1.9 due to the change of Array#to_s.

	    To fix the bug, it is changed to used Fisher-Yates shuffle,
	    as suggested by Anders Jacobsen.
	    ([BioRuby] Biased Bio::Sequence randomize())
	  * The module method Bio::Sequence::Common.randomize is removed
	    because it is not used anymore.
	  * Unit tests for Bio::Sequence::Common#randomize are added.
	  * To avoid possible test class name conflicts, class/module

	    Bio::Command#safe_command_line_array internally.
	  * Added test/functional/bio/test_command.rb, contains unit tests
	    to call external commands and to access external web sites.

	* lib/bio/db/biosql/sequence.rb

	  Bio::Sequence::SQL::Sequence#seq is changed to return a

2008-09-24  Naohisa Goto <ng@bioruby.org>

	* lib/bio/db/gff.rb, test/unit/bio/db/test_gff.rb

	  Bug fix and incompatible changes in GFF2 and GFF3 attributes.
	  (commit 7b174bb842d9dcf9fd7f4b59e8f3b13ebc0ff3d4)

	  * Bug fix: GFF2 attributes parser misunderstand semicolons.
	  * Incompatible change in Bio::GFF::GFF2::Record#attributes
	    and Bio::GFF::GFF3::Record#attributes.  Now, instead of Hash,
	    the method is changed to return a nested Array, containing
	    [ tag, value ] pairs, because of supporting multiple tags
	    in same name.  If you want to get a Hash, use
	    Record#attributes_to_hash method, though some tag-value pairs
	    in same tag name may not be included.
	  * Bio::GFF::Record#attribute still returns a Hash for compatibility.
	  * New methods for getting, setting and manipulating attributes:
	    Bio::GFF::GFF2::Record#attribute, #get_attribute, #get_attributes,
	    #set_attribute, #replace_attributes, #add_attribute,
	    #delete_attribute, #delete_attributes, and #sort_attributes_by_tag!
	    (These are also added to Bio::GFF::GFF3::Record).
	    It is recommended to use these methods instead of directly
	    manipulating the array returned by Record#attributes.
	    * Incompatible change in GFF2 attributes parser: the priority
	    of '"' (double quote) is greater than ';' (semicolon).
	    Special treatment of '\;' in GFF2 is now removed.
	    Unlike GFF2, in Bio::GFF, the '\;' can still be used for
	    backward compatibility.
	  * Incompatible changes in attribute values in Bio::GFF::GFF2.
	    Now, GFF2 attribute values are automatically unescaped.
	    In addition, if a value of an attribute is consisted of two
	    or more tokens delimited by spaces, an object of the new class
	    Bio::GFF::GFF2::Record::Value is returned instead of String.
	    The new class Bio::GFF::GFF2::Record::Value aims to store
	    a parsed value of an attribute.  If you really want to get
	    unparsed string, Value#to_s can be used.
	  * Incompatible changes about data type in GFF2 columns:
	    Bio::GFF::GFF2::Record#start, #end, and #frame return
	    Integer or nil, and #score returns Float or nil.
	  * Incompatible changes about the metadata in GFF2.
	    The "##gff-version" line is parsed and the version string
	    is stored to Bio::GFF::GFF2#gff_version. Other metadata
	    lines are stored in an array obtained with a new method
	    Bio::GFF::GFF2#metadata. Each metadata is parsed to
	    Bio::GFF::GFF2::MetaData object.
	  * Bio::GFF::Record#comments is renamed to #comment, and
	    #comments= is renamed to #comment=, because they only allow
	    a single String (or nil) and the plural form "comments"
	    may be confusable. The "comments" and "comments=" methods
	    can still be used, but warning messages will be shown
	    when using in GFF2::Record and GFF3::Record objects.
	  * New methods Bio::GFF::GFF2#to_s, Bio::GFF::GFF2::Record#to_s.
	  * New methods Bio::GFF::GFF2::Record#comment_only?
	    (also added in Bio::GFF::GFF3::Record).
	  * Unit tests are added and modified.

	  Improved support for RPS-BLAST results from multi-fasta query
	  sequences.
	  (commit 11f1787cf93c046c06d4a33a554210d56866274e)

	  * By using Bio::FlatFile (e.g. Bio::FlatFile.open), a rpsblast
	    result generated from multiple query sequences is automatically
	    split into multiple Bio::Blast::RPSBlast::Report objects
	    corresponding to query sequences. For the purpose, new
	    flatfile splitter class Bio::Blast::RPSBlast::RPSBlastSplitter
	    is added.
	  * File format autodetection for RPS-BLAST default report is added.
	  * Bug fix: Bio::Blast::RPSBlast::Report#program returns incorrect
	    value. To fix the bug, regular expression in
	    Bio::Blast::Default::Report#format0_parse_header (private method)
	    is changed.
	  * Unit tests are added for Bio::Blast::RPSBlast.

	  * Bug fix: Bio::FlatFile::BufferedInputStream#gets('') might not
	    work correctly. Now, BufferedInputStream#gets is refactored.
	    Note that when rs = '' (paragraph mode), the behavior may still
	    differ from that of IO#gets('').

	* lib/bio/appl/blast/format0.rb

	  Bug fix: Possibly because of the output format changes of PHI-BLAST,
	  Bio::Blast::Default::Report::Iteration#eff_space (and the shortcut
	  method in the Report class) failed for PHI-BLAST (blastpgp) results,
	  and Iteration#pattern and #pattern_positions (and the
	  shortcut methods in the Report class) returned incorrect values.

2008-05-12  Naohisa Goto <ng@bioruby.org>

	* lib/bio/appl/blast/xmlparser.rb, lib/bio/appl/blast/rexml.rb

	  Bug fix: unit test sometime fails due to improper treatment of some
	  Blast parameters and difference between rexml and xmlparser.
	  To fix the bug, types of some parameters may be changed, e.g.
	  Bio::Blast::Report#expect is changed to return Float or nil.

	* lib/bio/appl/blast/format0.rb

	  Bug fix: Bio::Blast::Default::Report#eff_space returns wrong value 
	  ("Effective length of database"). It should return the value of
	  "Effective search space".

	* test/unit/bio/appl/blast/test_xmlparser.rb

	* lib/bio/shell/setup.rb, core.rb

	  Changed not to use Dir.chdir by caching full path of the save
	  directory at a start up time, so that user can freely change
	  the work directory without affecting object/history saving
	  functionality.

	  Bio::Shell.cache[:savedir] stores the session saving directory
	  (session means shell/session/{config,history,object} files),
	  Bio::Shell.cache[:workdir] stores the working directory at a start
	  up time (can be same directory with the :savedir) and both are
	  converted and stored as full path allowing user to use Dir.chdir
	  in the shell session).

	  If --rails (-r) option is applied, 'bioruby' command will run in
	  the Rails server mode, and the server will start in the :savedir.

	  (A) IRB mode

	  1. run in the current directory and the session will be saved
	     in the ~/.bioruby directory

	       % bioruby

	  2. run in the current directory and the session will be saved
	     in the foo/bar directory

	       % bioruby foo/bar

	  3. run in the current directory and the session will be saved
	     in the /tmp/foo/bar directory

	       % bioruby /tmp/foo/bar

	  (B) Rails mode

	  4. run in the ~/.bioruby directory and the session will also be saved
	     in the ~/.bioruby directory

	       % bioruby -r

	  5. run in the foo/bar directory and the session will also be saved
	     in the foo/bar directory

	       % bioruby -r foo/bar

	  6. run in the /tmp/foo/bar directory and the session will also be
	     saved in the /tmp/foo/bar directory

	       % bioruby -r /tmp/foo/bar

	  (C) Script mode

	  7. run in the current directory using the session saved
	     in the ~/.bioruby directory

	       % bioruby ~/.bioruby/shell/script.rb

	  8. run in the current directory using the session saved
	     in the foo/bar directory

	       % bioruby foo/bar/shell/script.rb

	  9. run in the current directory using the session saved
	     in the /tmp/foo/bar directory

	       % bioruby /tmp/foo/bar/shell/script.rb

2007-06-21  Toshiaki Katayama <k@bioruby.org>

	* lib/bio/shell/setup.rb

	  If no directory is specified to the bioruby command,
	  use ~/.bioruby directory as the default save directory
	  instead of the current directory, as suggested by Jun Sese.

	  User can use 'bioruby' command without botherd by directories
	  and files previously created by the 'bioruby' command
	  in the current directory even when not needed.

2007-05-19  Toshiaki Katayama <k@bioruby.org>

	* lib/bio/appl/fasta.rb

	  This problem is reported and fixed by Fredrik Johansson.

	* lib/bio/db/gff.rb

	  parser_attributes method in GFF3 class is modified to use
	  '=' char as a separator instead of ' ' (which is used in
	  GFF2 spec).

2007-04-06  Toshiaki Katayama <k@bioruby.org>

	* COPYING, COPYING.LIB are removed

	  BioRuby is now distributed under the same terms as Ruby.

	  On behalf of the BioRuby developer, I have asked all authors of
	  the BioRuby code to change BioRuby's license from LGPL to Ruby's.
	  And we have finished to change license of all modules in the BioRuby
	  library. This means that Ruby user can freely use BioRuby library
	  without being annoyed by licensing issues.

	* lib/bio/db/kegg/ko.rb is renamed to lib/bio/db/kegg/ortholog.rb

	  KEGG KO database is renamed to KEGG ORTHOLOG database, thus we
	  follow the change. Bio::KEGG::KO is renamed to Bio::KEGG::ORTHOLOG.
	  
	  Bio::KEGG::ORTHOLOG#genes, dblinks methods are rewrited to use
	  lines_fetch method.

	* lib/bio/data/aa.rb

	  to_re method is changed that the generated regexp to include
	  ambiguous amino acid itself - replacement of amino acid X should
	  include X itself.

	  report.data instead.

2007-03-29  Toshiaki Katayama <k@bioruby.org>

	* lib/bio/db/kegg/cell.rb

	  Obsoleted as the KEGG CELL database is not publically available
	  any more.

2007-03-28  Toshiaki Katayama <k@bioruby.org>

	* lib/bio/shell/rails/.../bioruby_controller.rb

	  BioRuby shell on Rails access is changed to be limited only from
	  the localhost for security reason (if local_request?).

	  The post_form method is modified to accept URL as a string and
	  extended to accept params as
	    array of string
	    array of hash
	    array of array
	     or
	    string
	  in addition to hash (also can be ommited if not needed - defaults
	  to nil).

	  Keys and parameters of params are forced to use to_s for sure.

	* lib/bio/io/ensembl.rb

	  Re-designed to allows user to use Bio::Ensembl.new without

	  persistent objects and shared history.

2007-03-08  Toshiaki Katayama <k@bioruby.org>

	* lib/bio/db/kegg/drug.rb
