Thalassa CMS

Thalassa 0.3.30 released. This release is mainly devoted to the new comment displaying style, named thread. With this style, top-level comments are displayed on the page being commented, and for each top-level comment, a separate page is created to hold replies on that comment, if any. The Agenda template, from now on, allows to choose the style for comments, either “plain” (list), or tree (the default one), or the new thread style. The new comment style also affected the macroprocessor, where the %[cmt:replies] and %[cmt:threadpg] functions are added.

Besides that, this release fixes a problem related to the dirname(3) function. The problem didn't let Thalassa work on OpenBSD due to a slightly different implementation of the function.

And the last thing to mention: the %[rfcdate: ] macro now adds “UTC” to the text representation of the date.

This release doesn't (hopefully) introduce any incompatibilities with earlier releases; it should be safe to upgrade both the Thalassa version and the Agenda template. If you'd like to give a try to the support of different comment styles, then take a look at the appearance.ini file, find the [options cmt] sectioin and copy it to your appearance.ini, then edit as appropriate.
