• A gender-equitable scoring system (e.g. GAMX) can be applied, independently of the gendered teams scoring

66.0.0: Enhanced definition of Championships

• the exports using the dataExchange templates now use a 999 as the marker for the super heavy category.

66.0.0: Configurable timing

• For large school-age competitions, creating a local/timing/timing.properties as in this example allows changing the durations of the one minute and two minute intervals to have the lifts proceed faster.
• The values of the warnings times are also propagated to owlcms-tracker so they can be used (e.g. to change timer colours)

66.0.0: Clean-up of the solo referee/announcer/3-referee behavior wrt reversal delay and initial decision

• Solo referee decisions have a reversal delay, same as 3 referees. Only the visual rendering changes (single referee light instead of 3)
  • in solo referee mode, the first decision received from any referee is automatically the majority
  • an indicator is propagated to modulate display

  • no INITIAL_DECISION event is therefore sent
  • unless the announcerTriggersInitialDecision feature toggle is sent (for example, to always have good/bad lift videos on a listener)

66.0.0: showDecisionsImmediately feature toggle (off by default, TCRR still indicates a 3-second delay)

• Show the decision as soon as the 3 referees have given it. Note: this always sends INITIAL_DECISION

66.0.0: Fix: when producing competition results by registration category, the lot number was being used as identifier for the athlete, leading to problems if no lot numbers had been assigned (all were 0, collapsing to a single athlete)

66.0.0: Fix: reported scores on result sheets are now correctly zero when the athlete is done and has no total

66.0.0: Fix: the noInterimScoresInResults toggle was not systematically applied on the competition results page

• the individual session pages still show the current session in-progress scores as they may be required to plan for awards

66.0.0: Fix: updating the websocket event forwarding URL did not correctly reset the forwarder

65.1.1-rc01ea

Warning

• This is a release candidate (see definition), used for final public testing and translation. It is still a preliminary release
• You should test all releases, with actual data, several days before a competition. This is especially important when considering the use of a release candidate.

New in Release 65

65.1.1: The Competition Results full eligibility results did not show the correct score for the age group (would sometimes fall back to competition-wide)

65.1.0: Fix: it was previously possible to accidentally create two platforms with the same name, which prevented results from being produced. Integrity checks at startup and when importing will now correct this situation. User interface checks have been added.

65.1.0: JXLS templates now receive "championship", "ageGroupPrefix" (the age group without the gender), and "gender" as template variables

65.0.0: Act as record repository :

• Enable a separate dedicated OWLCMS instance to keep and edit records
  • A new feature toggle "recordRepository" hides all the pages except records management
  • Default access is read-only, with capability to export selected records and the database
• Ability to import the provisional records from a meet to accept them, thereby creating a full history
• Round-trip updating - export a subset of the records, update the file, and reload after making corrections or approving provisional records
  • This does not delete records.
• Define the set active record set (inactive records are not exported or editable)
• Abiilty to export the database (including using the /competition/export backup from localhost or a machine in the backdoor list)

65.0.0: Improved kill behavior:

• On macOS and Linux, using kill (kill -TERM) targeting owlcms is intercepted and interpreted as intentional stoppage without restart

65.0.0: Added Sinclair 2028.

• The default remains the 2001-2004 values.
• You should NOT switch without analysis, as the coefficients change quite a bit.
• Note that Q-Points or GAMX are better alternatives, for a number of reasons.
