+This weekly snapshot includes changes to the image, path/filepath, and time +packages. Code that uses these packages may need to be updated. + +The image package's NewX functions (NewRGBA, NewNRGBA, etc) have been changed +to take a Rectangle argument instead of a width and height. +Gofix can make these changes automatically. + +The path/filepath package's Walk function has been changed to take a WalkFunc +function value instead of a Visitor interface value. WalkFunc is like the +Visitor's VisitDir and VisitFile methods except it handles both files and +directories: + func(path string, info *os.FileInfo, err os.Error) os.Error +To skip walking a directory (like returning false from VisitDir) the WalkFunc +must return SkipDir. + +The time package's Time struct's Weekday field has been changed to a method. +The value is calculated on demand, avoiding the need to re-parse +programmatically-constructed Time values to find the correct weekday. + +There are no gofixes for the filepath or time API changes, but instances of the +old APIs will be caught by the compiler. The Weekday one is easy to update by +hand. The Walk one may take more consideration, but will have fewer instances +to fix. + +* build: add build comments to core packages. +* codereview: Mercurial 1.9 fix for hg diff @nnn. +* crypto/tls: handle non-TLS more robustly, + support SSLv3. +* debug/elf: permit another case of SHT_NOBITS section overlap in test. +* exm/template/html: more work on this auto-escaping HTML template package. +* exp/norm: added regression test tool for the standard Unicode test set. +* exp/regexp/syntax: fix invalid input parser crash, + import all RE2 parse tests + fix bugs. +* exp/regexp: add MustCompilePOSIX, CompilePOSIX, leftmost-longest matching. +* flag: make zero FlagSet useful. +* gc: clean up if grammar. +* go/build: handle cgo, // +build comments. +* go/printer: use panic/defer instead of goroutine for handling errors. +* go/token: support to serialize file sets. +* godoc, suffixarray: switch to exp/regexp. +* godoc: show packages matching a query at the top, + support for complete index serialization, + use go/build to find files in a package. +* gofmt: accept program fragments on standard input, add else test. +* http/cgi: add openbsd environment configuration. +* http: document that Response.Body is non-nil. +* image/png: don't use a goroutine to decode, to permit decode during init. +* json: if a field's tag is "-", ignore the field for encoding and decoding. +* ld: grow dwarf includestack on demand. +* net, syscall: implement SetsockoptIPMReq(), and + move to winsock v2.2 for multicast support (thanks Paul Lalonde). +* net: add a LookupTXT function. +* os: os.RemoveAll to check for wboth error codes on Windows (thanks Jaroslavas Počepko). +* path/filepath: fix Visitor doc (thanks Gustavo Niemeyer), + make UNC file names work (thanks Yasuhiro Matsumoto). +* runtime: optimizations to channels on Windows (thanks Hector Chu), + syscall to return both AX and DX for windows/386 (thanks Alex Brainman). +* sync/atomic: add 64-bit Load and Store. +* syscall: add route flags for linux (thanks Mikio Hara). +* test: add test for inheriting private method from anonymous field. +* websocket: fix infinite recursion in Addr.String() (thanks Tarmigan Casebolt), + rename websocket.WebSocketAddr to *websocket.Addr. ++
