    9 Introduction
   10 
   11    This release fixes two bugs in WeBWorK 2.0.
   12 
   13     1. When course databases were upgraded, sets, but not problems, were
   14        assigned to the global user. This caused sets appear to be empty
   15        when it was assigned to a user after the upgrade. Bugzilla bugs
   16        [1]#611 and [2]#614 are related to this issue.
   17     2. The date calculation routines before() and after(), used to
   18        compare the current time to the set dates, were not inclusive.

   34 Fixing courses upgraded with WeBWorK 2.0
   35 
   36    To fix corruption of courses upgraded with WeBWorK 2.0:
   37 
   38     1. Log into the course with WeBWorK 1.9 and delete the global user
   39        (usually called global_user).
   40     2. Log into the course with WeBWorK 2.0.1. You will be prompted to
   41        upgrade the database. Do so.
   42     3. If you had assigned sets to any users with WeBWorK 2.0, unassign
   43        and reassign the sets to each user.

   53    Submit bug reports and feature requests at

   57 Patches
   58 
   59    While we welcome patches of any sort, by patching against the latest
   60    CVS code, you save us and yourself time. A bug in this release may be
   61    fixed in CVS, and we can more easily handle patches against the latest
   62    code. Check out the latest development version from CVS and patch
   63    against that. Consult the [8]WeBWorKCVS topic for more information.
