Default is still http to prevent any regressions, but a new setting is
available to choose https as the preferred protocol to perform remote
searches.
New configuration setting 'remotesearch.https.preferred' is manually
editable in yacy.conf file or in Advanced Properties page
(/ConfigProperties_p.html).
Should be enabled as default in the future for improved privacy.
Https could also eventually be used for other peers communications.
Required to properly run on systems with default locale set to Turkish
language, as with this locale the 'i' character has different upper and
lower case flavors than with other locales.

For any relevant URL parts : host name, URL scheme, session ids or
technical parts (see https://url.spec.whatwg.org/#url-writing and
https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3986 for current standard references).
Remaining locale sensitive conversion used for detection of URL word
components in urlComps() makes sense but using detected language would
be preferable than using the default system locale.
Required for people using Turkish language as their default system
locale, as with this locale the 'i' character has different upper and
lower case flavors than with other locales.
Using current IANA reference list at

As for previous update on known generic TLDs list, the generated URL
hashes on these domains stay the same but it improves performance of URL
hash computation for URLs on these domains.
Using current IANA reference list at
https://www.iana.org/domains/root/db
The generated URL hashes on these domains stay the same but performance
is greatly improved as a DNS resolve request is required on URL hash
computation when the TLD part of the host name is unknown.
Hash computation mean time measured on 1541 sample URLs (one on each
TLD) and a computer with a DSL connection : about 230ms before change,
then only 20ms.
The modified tests were successfull when run manually from an IDE such
as Eclipse, but failed occasionnally when run with maven as part of the
overall test suite.
Previously named with their ISO 3166-1 country code : this way, when
setting language to "Browser" in ConfigBasic.html, it didn't work
properly when browser preferred language was Chinese or Greek as their
respective language codes are "zh" and "el" (not "cn" and "gr" which are
their country codes)
Also ensure authentication is not lost by Digest timeout when navigating
between index.html and search results page.
This way, running searches with extended features on a remote peer or a
password protected peer works with a regular user (with "Extended
search" rights).
When authenticating on the search page with a user without "Extended
search" rights, it appears as authenticated, but has just its usual
access to the public search features.
Otherwise, when authenticated as admin and navigating from search
results or admin pages to the search start page (/index.html), if
nothing is done on that page within HTTP Digest Auth timeout (about
2mn), then search is performed without authentication and so without
extended search features.
Thus eventually including the same optional login link/status in the
search start page than in the results page, for the same convenient
login without the need to use the Administration section.
Restores the behavior introduced eleven years ago (see commit
479861a3cf) and lost by mistake 3 years
ago (see commit 617dd9c97b), when the
click handler started referencing a missing HTML id.
Thus allowing a more convenient way (wihout the need to go to the admin
section) to login when searching on your remote or password protected
peer and benefit from extended search features such as Heuristics,
Bookmarking or JavasScript resorting.
Can be disabled using the ConfigSearchPage_p.html.
Resizing JPEG snapshot images through /api/snapshot.jpg failed when
running on OpenJDK, but rendered successfully with a Oracle JDK.
Details in mantis 772 ( http://mantis.tokeek.de/view.php?id=772 ).
Removing any alpha component (useless in snapshot images) from the
rendered resized image solves the issue.
