info2www (1.2.2.9-23) unstable; urgency=high

   * SECURITY FIX: This release prevents _some_ forms of Cross Site Scripting
     (XSS) attacks against info2www. A more thorough security audit needs to
     be done, though. It's expected that more vulnerabilities can be found.
     Thanks to Nicolas Gregoire for the bug-report and Justin Pryzby for his
     help with analyzing the issue and providing a first fix (Closes: #281655).

     than localhost when using the default Debian apache configuration.

info2www (1.2.2.9-14) unstable; urgency=low

   * New maintainer. (Closes: #110940)
   * Repackaged from scratch using debhelper v3.
   * Update Depends to use ${perl:Depends}, generated by dh_perl.
   * Depend on 'apache | httpd', i.e. list a real package before the virtual
     package httpd (thanks lintian).
   * I wrote a manpage for info2www.
   * Standards-Version: 3.5.6.0
      + Added Build-Dependencies. (Closes: #92292)
        The Build-Dependency on debhelper (>= 3.0.18) is due to the usage
        of dh_perl (read the Debian Perl Policy for details).
      + Use /var/cache/info2www instead of /var/tmp. (Closes: #39625)
        Create /var/cache/info2www in postinst and purge it in postrm.
      + No support for DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS, as there's nothing being compiled.
   * Moved TODO to debian/TODO.Debian.
   * debian/TODO.Debian: Fixed typos and reformatted the text a bit.
   * Updated debian/copyright.
   * Added debian/doc-base.info2www to integrate the info2www documentation
     with the doc-base system.
   * All HTML files should be HTML 4.01 conform now.
   * info2www.html:
       + Fixed typos.
       + Removed the 'Configuration and installation' section as it's not
         relevant for Debian users.
       + I removed the useless link to ChangeLog, which doesn't really contain
         any useful information. (Closes: #67123)
       + Fix: the latest version is 1.2.2.9 not 1.2.
       + Replaced link to w3 node with a link to the fileutils node, because
         everyone should have fileutils installed, unlike w3.
   * I converted all images to the PNG format. GIFs just plain suck
     (Unisys, patent, license, bla bla...). Those PNG files are uuencoded due
     to problems with diff and binary files...
   * Moved info2www.html and the images to /usr/share/doc/info2www/html/.
   * README: Added lots more documentation (mostly taken from info2www.html).
   * info2www: Added WIDTH and HEIGHT HTML tags to the images, so that the
     generated WWW pages load faster in most graphical browsers.
   * Upload sponsored by Ralf Treinen <treinen@debian.org>.
