13 hours	Replace libowfat's event waiter with our own abstraction	Dirk Engling
	It's with a heavy heart that I remove libowfat as my event library from opentracker. libowfat is what taught opentracker to walk and then fly. The tracker was literally standing on the shoulder of giants when I started writing it in 2006. For its time, the event abstraction was unparalleled and it has held up for many years, and it served the bittorrent community greatly. https://erdgeist.org/gitweb/opentracker/commit/?id=ad472597c569568bad0526d116b601dfcb36638c Unfortunately, it is very likely that libowfat will not be maintained anymore for the foreseeable future, it is already not easy to get its source from upstream and opentracker started receiving bug reports that I can not reasonably answer or patch. Before the project gets more dependent on the limitations of libowfat's current state, I need to teach opentracker to stand on its own feet and fly by itself. I've learned a great deal in the process and have even more respect now for what libowfat pioneered. The path for opentracker is cleared now. Ground work has already been laid in the migration process to support multi threaded http processing while keeping the aggressive reduction of syscalls alive that made the libowfat+opentracker combo so scalable. Here be some dragons, though: Even though there is a unit test suite now, the event loop's rewrite has not been battle tested yet. So you might want to hold up for a bit before jumping on the solo band wagon. What awaits at the end will be a long overdue v1.0, which will be named in honour of Felix.

2009-03-04	Add a stat option the count bucket stalls	erdgeist
	Add an iterator for all torrents. It's slower but for stats it's okay. Move some stats collection stuff to the new iterator. More to come. Start a "report all stats" page. Start fixing the code to identify "busy" networks. Add the concept of hosts allowed to proxy. Add a parser for the X-Forwarded-For: HTTP header. Clean up HTTP Header handling code. (Remove some left overs of now vanished sync code).

2009-01-03	Make opentracker ANSI C again.	erdgeist

2009-01-02	* opentracker now drops permissions in correct order and really chroots() if ran as root	erdgeist
	* lock passing between add_peer_to_torrent and return_peers_for_torrent is now avoided by providing a more general add_peer_to_torrent_and_return_peers function that can be used with NULL parameters to not return any peers (in sync case) * in order to keep a fast overview how many torrents opentracker maintains, every mutex_bucket_unlock operation expects an additional integer parameter that tells ot_mutex.c how many torrents have been added or removed. A function mutex_get_torrent_count has been introduced.
