-To: meta@public-inbox.org
-Subject: [WIP] public-inbox 1.7.0
-MIME-Version: 1.0
-Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8
-Content-Disposition: inline
-
-Another big release focused on multi-inbox search and scalability.
-
-* general changes
-
-  - config file parsing is 2x faster with 50K inboxes
-
-  - deduplication ignores whitespace differences within address fields
-
-  - "PRAGMA optimize" is now issued on commits for SQLite 3.18+
-
-* public-inbox-extindex
-
-  A new Xapian + SQLite index able to search across several inboxes.
-  This may be configured to replace per-inbox Xapian DBs,
-  (but not per-inbox SQLite indices) and speed up manifest.js.gz
-  generation.
-
-  See public-inbox-extindex-format(5) and
-  public-inbox-extindex(1) manpages for more details.
-
-  Using it with "--all" speeds up various multi-inbox operations in
-  PublicInbox::WWW, public-inbox-nntpd, and public-inbox-imapd.
-
-* read-only public-inbox-daemon (-httpd, -nntpd, -imapd):
-
-  libgit2 may be used via Inline::C to avoid hitting system pipe
-  and process limits.  See public-inbox-tuning(7) manpage
-  for more details.
-
-* various memory usage reductions and workarounds for leaks in
-  Encode <3.15, these mainly affect PublicInbox::WWW
-
-* public-inbox-nntpd
-
-  - startup is 6x faster with 50K inboxes if using -extindex
-
-* PublicInbox::WWW
-
-  - mboxrd search results are returned in reverse Xapian docid order,
-    so more recent results are more likely to show up first
-
-  - d: and dt: search prefixes allow "approxidate" formats supported
-    by "git log --since="
-
-  - manifest.js.gz generation is ~25x faster with -extindex
-
-  - minor navigation improvements in search results HTML page
-
-* lei - local email interface
-
-  An experimental, subject-to-change, likely-to-eat-your-mail tool for
-  personal mail as well as interacting with public-inboxes on the local
-  filesystem or over HTTP(S).  See lei(1), lei-overview(7), and other
-  lei-* manpages for details.  This is only ready-to-use w.r.t. external
-  public-inbox instances, but mail synchronization for personal mail
-  remains clunky.
-
-* public-inbox-index
-
-  - non-strict (Subject-based) threading supports non-ASCII characters,
-    reindexing is necessary for old messages with non-ASCII subjects.
-
-  - --batch-size is now 8M on 64-bit systems for throughput improvements,
-    higher values are still advised for more powerful hardware.
-
-* public-inbox-watch
-
-  - IMAP and NNTP code shared with lei, fixing an off-by-one error
-    in IMAP synchronization for single-message IMAP folders.
-
-  - \Deleted and \Draft messages ignored for IMAP, as they are for
-    Maildir.
-
-  - IMAP and NNTP connection establishment (including git-credential
-    prompts) ordering is now tied to config file order.
-
-Compatibility:
-
-* Rollbacks all the way to public-inbox 1.2.0 remain supported
-
-Internal changes
-
-* public-inbox-index switched to new internal IPC code shared
-  with lei
