==========
A new dependency has been added on `cytube-common`, a module that will hold
common code shared between the current version of CyTube and the upcoming work
around splitting it into multiple services. You will need to be sure to run
`npm install` after pulling in this change to pull in the new dependency.

==========
This release updates socket.io to version 1.4.0. The updates to socket.io
include a few security-related fixes, so please be sure to run `npm install`
to ensure the updated version is installed before restarting your CyTube server.

==========
In order to support future clustering support, the legacy `/sioconfig`
endpoint is being deprecated. Instead, you should make a request to
`/socketconfig/<channel name>.json`. See [the
documentation](docs/socketconfig.md) for more information.

==========
* The channel data storage system has been refactored a bit. For
compatibility, the default remains to store JSON objects for each channel in
the `chandump` folder, however there is now also the option of storing
channel data in the database. You can take advantage of this by setting
`channel-storage: type: 'database'` in your `config.yaml`.
- In order to migrate existing channel data from the `chandump` files to the
database, run `node lib/channel-storage/migrate.js`.
* The database storage method uses foreign keys to associate the channel data
with the corresponding row in the `channels` table. This requires that the
tables be stored using the InnoDB engine rather than MyISAM. If your CyTube
tables defaulted to MyISAM, you can fix them by running
```sql
ALTER TABLE `channels` ENGINE = InnoDB;
```

==========
* CyTube is now transpiled with [babel] to allow the use of ES6/ES2015
features. All source files have been moved from `lib` to `src`.
* Running `npm install` or `npm run postinstall` will prompt you to
build from `src` to `lib`.
* Running `npm run build-server` will run the build script without any
prompts.
* After updating with `git pull`, you should run `npm install` or `npm run
build-server` in order to rebuild after the changes.

==========
* CyTube now supports subtitles for Google Drive videos. In order to take
advantage of this, you must upgrade mediaquery by running `npm install
cytube/mediaquery`. Subtitles are cached in the google-drive-subtitles
folder.
2015-07-07
==========
* CyTube and CyTube/mediaquery have both been updated to use
calzoneman/status-message-polyfill to polyfill res.statusMessage on older
versions of node (e.g., v0.10). After pulling, run `npm install` to update
this dependency. This fixes an issue where HTTP status messages from
mediaquery were reported as `undefined`, and removes the need for manually
looking up status messages in `lib/ffmpeg.js`.
2015-07-06
==========
* As part of the video player rewrite, Google Drive and Google+ metadata
lookups are now offloaded to CyTube/mediaquery. After pulling the new
changes, run `npm install` or `npm update` to update the mediaquery
dependency.
* `www/js/player.js` is now built from the CoffeeScript source files in the
`player/` directory. Instead of modifying it directly, modify the relevant
player implementations in `player/` and run `npm run build-player` (or `node
build-player.js`) to generate `www/js/player.js`.
* Also as part of the video player rewrite, the schema for custom embeds
changed so any custom embeds stored in the `channel_libraries` table need to
be updated. The automatic upgrade script will convert any custom embeds
that are parseable (i.e., not truncated by the width of the `id` field using
the old format) and will delete the rest (you may see a lot of WARNING:
unable to convert xxx messages-- this is normal). Custom embeds in channel
playlists in the chandumps will be converted when the channel is loaded.
