• DXR:
  • Archaeologized: tracked down most of the historical contributors and found out what they were thinking. ;-)
  • Triaged a bunch more. Closed a bunch. Halfway through seeing what can be salvaged from old patches.
  • Fixed a bunch of bugs. Deleted several thousand lines of unused stuff. Improved look on mobile and WebKit. Repeated stuff less.
  • Helped Lonnen get it Vagrant-ized.
• Lots of improvements to pyelasticsearch, readying it to be used underneath elasticutils:
  • Add ``update()`` method.
  • Make ``send_request`` method public so you can use ES APIs we don't yet explicitly support.
  • Handle JSON translation of Decimal class and sets.
  • Make ``more_like_this()`` take an arbitrary request body so you can filter the returned docs.
  • Make explicit our undeclared dependency on simplejson.
