Planning to use Net::Gnats
     posted by relberger, Wed 06 Aug 2014 02:36:01 AM UTC

The original author of Net::Gnats has transferred maintainer status to me since it is planned that the next version of Gnatsweb will be leveraging this module.

By using Net::Gnats, we look forward to decoupling the protocol code from the web client.

Status update on upcoming changes
     posted by relberger, Thu 17 Jul 2014 02:55:47 AM UTC

Quite frankly, I have found that the current gnatsweb lacks the sufficient framing to make anything more useful out of it.  Managing it as a monolithic perl CGI script just is not working out.

So, I've decided to:

1. Move the repository to Github, which gives me some better tools to manage updates
2. Move the functionality directly to Mojolicious without making a 'cleanup' release
3. Release the next version as a 'like for like' replacement

Perl::Critic names over 1200 issues with gnatsweb.pl
     posted by relberger, Sat 05 Apr 2014 01:00:00 AM UTC

Due to the enormous number of Perl coding "issues" with gnatsweb,pl, a major cleanup will occur to baseline the code to something a bit more manageable.

Will be using http://www.gnu.org/software/gnatsweb/critic.html as a way to monitor critic issues over time.  Feel free to peruse that link and post discussion with regards to the criticism worthiness.

     posted by yngves, Wed 30 Jul 2003 10:43:54 PM UTC

This release of Gnatsweb coincides with the release of GNATS 4.0 which will take place in a few days. Although the look-and-feel is similar to Gnatsweb 2.x, this is an extensive rewrite. Gnatsweb 4.00 supports all the advanced new features of GNATS 4.0; it is extremely customizable and has numerous usability enhancements compared to earlier versions. Gnatsweb 4.00 will work with GNATS 4.0 and newer.
