Financial state of Auctioneer project.
Norganna - 2010-06-05 09:03:47:
I'd just like to make a quick post regarding the ongoing financial state of Auctioneer.
As many of you will know, I host the website and development environment for Auctioneer and Gatherer.
The monthly server costs are around $800, and the monthly donations that we receive (apart from around major patches) are usually only around $300.
Due to recent personal financial changes, I am unable to continue funding this project at this level of personal cost, so effective immediately I will be making changes to try and rectify this.
I have implemented a new "Sponsor" level of membership which entails a monthly contribution level, and also gives you a special status on the forums and the ability to specify a custom "title" which appears with your posts. (see: sponsorship)
There will be some consolidation of servers, which will require migration of services and disruption to the website operations during this process. This will allow me to reduce the overhead of having multiple server costs. We will be replacing the four servers we have at the moment with a modern "super" server, powerful enough to do the whole lot.
Finally, I will be implementing some form of advertising on the site, which I have always been opposed to, but which also appears to be inevitable. I will try to keep it as minimal and as relevant to the audience as I possibly can.
If you have ever considered donating, or becoming a sponsor, now would be a great time to do something about it.

Auctioneer and Auctioneer Suite 5.8 Released!
Nechckn - 2010-05-04 00:10:39:
Auctioneeros,
We are pleased to release Auctioneer and Auctioneer Suite 5.8, the CreepyKangaroo, which is fully compatible with World of Warcraft 3.3.x.
Roughly 150 changes, fixes, and, or, enhancements by our volunteer staff this time. Most of the work was done to background processing, to provide an even more stable, more enjoyable experience.
All of our people put in numerous hours of their time to help ensure that the Auctioneer Suite remains the most-used Auction House and general item data set of AddOns. No one real star this time, but when you work with such a bright group, it is often hard to have to pick just one, anyway! Thank you to everyone who has coded, tested, documented, and hung out; without you, what would be the point, right? =)
As shown in the Current commits (changes, enhancements, fixes) subsection, there are numerous other fixes, enhancements, and more. Be sure to check them out!
Please be sure to read and follow http://Wiki.Norganna.Org/Installing when upgrading your installation.
** There have been a few changes this time, so a full remove/reinstall is recommended.
** Be sure that the Auc-Util-FixAH module is installed and has a gold checkmark next to its entry in the main WoW AddOns Control Panel. That helps to prevent two issues that were introduced and not fixed by Blizzard as of this writing.
All of the very latest http://Localizer.Norganna.Org language string updates have been imported and will be displayed in your localized client.
** We are continually in need of help localizing the ongoing changes to Auctioneer, BeanCounter, Enchantrix, Informant, and the other AddOns listed at http://Localizer.Norganna.Org .
** Registering takes only moments and you can be on your way... it is quite simple. Even if you only have the time/inclination to help with a few translations, that will be better than what we have now for some of the locales.
** Before starting, kindly take a look at http://forums.norganna.org/discussion/9517/translation-format/ for some basic thoughts.
Happy Auctioneering,
Nikk and the rest of the family at Norganna’s AddOns
Highlights:
Auctioneer
Numerous enhancements Suite-wide to increase processing speed, efficiency, stability, and more. (Those using Auctioneer's scanning, data, or other functions/information should double-check to ensure there AddOns/scripts are not affected.)
If an auction cannot be posted due to lack of bag space to split a stack, Auctioneer will attempt to post all other auctions in the queue (in an attempt to provide a free slot) before retrying the first auction again.
Auctioneer can now query the WoW Client directly for vendor sales prices when Informant is not installed.
If a user has chosen to redirect Auctioneer messages to a different chat frame, that now is based on the name of the frame, rather than the number. This will ensure that the redirect always goes to the Auctioneer Information channel on all Characters.
Auctioneer/Appraiser
New option added to allow users to choose whether to clear the posting queue when the Auction House frame is closed.
Status of Auction House data clarified, such as the Not seen in current scan, data is <X> old message.
Auctioneer/AutoMagic
Nearly a complete overhaul by the Kandoko.
** Added an option to auto-sell grey items, green items, BOPs that are not useable, et cetera, all without being prompted.
** When auto-selling, there is an option to halt vendoring after twelve items have been sold to allow the user to buyback any accidental sales.
** The mail auto-loader should now function correctly across all locales.
** Configuration window and options rearranged in a more logical order.
Auctioneer/Glypher
GlypherPost added to the Suite; it allows Scribes to easily *and smartly* post their wares. For more, see http://wiki.norganna.org/Auc-Util-GlypherPost .
Added slash command to toggle hardminstock flag. Since it is more of a niche setting, it is not included in the GUI settings.
Auctioneer/ScanStart
New Auc-Util-ScanStart module added to the Auctioneer Suite. This new module allows you to select various options when you start a scan; for more, see http://wiki.norganna.org/Auc-Util-ScanStart .
Auctioneer/SearchUI
Many background changes to help lessen the chance for errors when purchasing.
BeanCounter
Changes made to the algorithm to help correctly record all Auction House messages; this is true even when using a mail AddOn. **Note that there may be issues if a user posts with an AddOn that utilizes the new multi-post capability. Once that is added to Auctioneer, BeanCounter will be updated to accommodate those item.
Added the ability to right-click the BeanCounter tab, while at the Auction House, to open the external BeanCounter window.
Canceled auctions will now be tracked to allow users to see which items they should consider posting at a lower beginning cost, rather than wasting time/cash cancelling and re-posting.
BeanCounter will now record disenchant results, including what the item DEs into, how many, and the estimated value of the mats.
Enchantrix
Option added to enable auto-looting of manual disenchants, prospects and milling.
Added Adamantite and Titanium powders to the reverse prospect list.
Informant
All data updated for WoW 3.3.3.
Sell to vendor pricing has been removed, and Informant now passes the request for pricing to the WoW Client, resulting in a smaller DB.
For Details, see http://forums.norganna.org/discussion/11863/ .
**Nechckn Edit: some tiny formatting to keep the two rendering engines happy. =) Removed deprecated BCNT mail reading delay/adjustment.

Removal of old "Classic" statistic
Nechckn - 2009-12-30 03:03:08:
Auctioneeros,
Since the data is now nearly a year out of date, the next release of Auctioneer will no longer include the Auc-Stat-Classic.
If anything, this will help your Market Price weighted statistics to be more current, as, again, the data which was imported from the v4 client has never been updated since. This will not impact any other statistic, such as Simple, StandardDeviation, iLevel, et cetera.
Hopefully everyone has already disabled it; but, if not, the 5.7a release will help you get there. ;-)
Happy Auctioneering,

Folks,
No matter if you celebrate Christmas, Hanukkah, Al Hijra, Ashura, Kwanzaa, Yule, Festivus, Winterveil (we all celebrate that one, right?), or just plain Winter, we here at Norganna's AddOns wish you and yours all the best now, in the coming year, and always.
We have had another amazing year of features, enhancements, bug fixes, and user support, all thanks to one of the most dedicated teams of AddOn developers that you will find anywhere. Look for more of the same during 2010!
Stay safe, stay warm, take some time to enjoy your non-Azerothian friends and family, and enjoy the rest of the year!

Auctioneer and Auctioneer Suite 5.7 Released!
Nechckn - 2009-12-08 23:52:47:
Auctioneeros,
We are pleased to release Auctioneer and the Auctioneer Suite 5.7, the KillerKoala, which is fully compatible with World of Warcraft 3.3.x.
Just under 140 changes, fixes, and, or, enhancements by our volunteer staff this time.
First, a much deserved Well Done! to all of the people who have devoted numerous hours over the past months to help ensure that the Auctioneer Suite remains the most-used Auction House and general item data set of AddOns! Please join us in welcoming Weltmeister to the team, who has decided to tackle the Glypher module, details below, and has really hit the ground running. Also, we have to mention Mikk’s work on optimization. That effort has produced some of the most marked increases in processing agility, across nearly the entire Suite, since moving to the new framework. The changes may not necessarily be seen, but will surely be felt when scanning or looking up items on the live Auction House, searching with SearchUI, mousing- over items to view their tooltips, using BeanCounter, and much more.
As shown in the Current commits (changes, enhancements, fixes) post, linked below, there are numerous other fixes, enhancements, and more. Enjoy WoW 3.3 and thank you for choosing the Auctioneer Suite!
Please be sure to read and follow http://Wiki.Norganna.Org/Installing when upgrading your installation.

Happy Auctioneering,
Nikk and the rest of the family at Norganna’s AddOns
Highlights:
Auctioneer
Numerous enhancements Suite-wide to increase processing speed, efficiency, et cetera.
Market Price can be set to display per each or stack pricing on the main, Core options panel and, or, the Tooltip configuration pane.
Whenever a setting is changed throughout Auctioneer that could impact the Market Price recommendation, the cache (database of saved pricing information) is now properly cleared and recalculated to ensure that pricing is as exact as possible.
If an auction cannot be posted due to lack of bag space, Auctioneer will attempt to post all other auctions in the queue to free up space before retrying the unpostable auction again. If there is still no space for unstacking after attempting to post all auctions, the user will be notified that the item(s) cannot be posted.
Enhancements to the /auc clear [item] command. All information for an item should be reset after issuing the command.
Post warning/text messages clarified to be a bit more informative.
Auctioneer/Appraiser
Prices for an item will no longer persist after issuing the /auc clear [item] command.
If Appraiser columns have been re-ordered, the column sort will be properly saved between sessions.
Option added to hide/remove the Appraiser tab from the Appraiser options window.
Appraiser’s tooltip input now can be set on the core Tooltip options screen, as well as the Appraiser submenu.
Auctioneer/AskPrice
The /askprice send command has been clarified; its definition is now /askprice send <Player> <#>[Item] (where <#> is the optional stacksize). I.E. /askprice send Joe 20[Goldbloom] will send the pricing information for a stack of 20 Goldbloom to Joe.
Auctioneer/AutoMagic
Added close (X) buttons to AutoMagic’s Mail Loader and Auto Vendor windows.
Added buttons/functionality to control the items suggested for sale in the Auto Vendor window. The user can select an item and then choose Ignore, Unignore , and, or Remove this time only .
Auctioneer/Glypher
Introduction of the Glypher utility within the Auctioneer Suite! This utility contains numerous functions to assist the Scribe when deciding which glyphs to create, assists in their creation, and much more. For details, see http://wiki.norganna.org/Auc-Util-Glypher .
Auctioneer/ScanFinish
The customizable events upon scan completion, such as emote, et cetera should now fire upon completion of all full scans, both slow and fast.
Auctioneer/SearchUI
Code optimized to allow for faster searching and purchasing.
The way that SearchUI handles the Queued Purchases counter has been adjusted to include the current item (and its price) when the Yes/No Prompt is displayed. Clicking the Cancel Queue button will also clear the prompt.
Auctioneer/SimpleAuction
The tab is now, properly, removable from the SimpleAuction configuration page.
BeanCounter
The BeanCounterMatcher will now accept a serverKey option. Allowing results for servers other than the current server.
Full neutral AH support added, neutral Auctions are now stored in their own database, per player. New filters added to search routines for API and internal searches. By default, neutral transactions are not displayed in BeanCounter’s report. Use the checkbox to show along with the faction AH data, as before, or use the select box to display ONLY neutral AH data.
Adds API call to BeanCounter allowing external AddOns to prompt a player to permanently remove all records of a specific item from the database. BeanCounter.API.deleteItem( itemLink )
Numerous code and database optimizations, including speed enhancements and better handling of suffix (of the xxx) items.
Enchantrix
Constants updated to reflect most readily available data for all items.
Infinite Dust yields updated to reflect changes made by Blizzard.
Corrected disenchanting skill required for iLevel 152+ blue/rare items.
Informant
Updated with the most recent item data as of 3.2. Some items will not necessarily be correct for 3.3 until the specifics can be documented and the changes made. We will have another release once that data is ready.
Recipes will show the resultant item and basic valuations for the item.

Auctioneer's and AuctioneerDb's future.
Norganna - 2009-10-02 20:21:52:
As you may know, for the past few months I have been taking a break from the daily grind of being "norganna". I have actually been involved in some of my other projects for this time, and I'm finally ready to come back and have a good look at the future of Auctioneer.
The current state of affairs is that we have 4 servers running. One of which is reasonably expensive and for all intents and purposed is dedicated to running AuctioneerDb.
The remaining 3 other servers, are for the Auctioneer development, issue tracking, wikis, forums, email etc.
Just a bit of background. AuctioneerDb was meant to be a collaborative price database. It was something that many people doggedly asked for over the life of the Auctioneer project, and I have sunk quite a bit of my own time and money (2 years of my spare time, and around $5000 of my own money at this point) into the project to find out that almost nobody is going to use it. We got during the peak of it's use about 100 visitors/day.
It's a terrible shame to me, thinking that I'm going to have to shut it down and admit failure. Worse, I feel foolish for even taking on this project to start with, which is something that I've been coming to terms with over the last several months.
I've decided to put out the decision to you guys. If enough of you make a commitment to use it, tell people about it, make donations so that we can continue it, then I'll make a commitment to bring it up to date, get everything back up and running and fund it for the next 6 months even if it is partially coming out of my own pocket to pay for the servers. At the end of the 6 months, we should have enough traffic and data, that with a proportion of the user base as subscribers to the service can cover at least the cost of the servers.
If not, then I will simply have to face the fact that it's a failure. Sometimes you just can't see things objectively from the inside.
If you want to pledge your support, make a post in this article and tell some other people you know about what's going on.
Thanks, norganna.

AuctioneerDB Status
Nechckn - 2009-08-27 22:50:46:
Auctioneeros,
There have been some recurring questions about AuctioneerDB, http://AuctioneerDB.Com , so here is an even more prominent discussion, in addition to those already on the AucDB-specific forums.
The service has been down for a bit and, although initially planned to be brought back up immediately, there simply has not been the time to address the issues.
What it comes down to is financial and resource availability. Both the servers and connectivity cost a decent amount, but the other thing is the manpower to keep the service not only functioning and updated, but progressing - all at a level with which we are confident meets our high standards.
For the time being, do not expect to be able to upload data, but you can still run the AddOn portion in the back ground on your local installation to continue gathering information, so that new data is ready to go when/if the service is brought back on line.
Please keep an eye here for any status information, which we will provide once it is available.
As always, we appreciate everyone's support of our endeavors over the years, and look forward to providing more such innovative AddOns and services into the future.
Happy Sales,
Nikk :shades:

Auctioneer and Auctioneer Suite 5.6.4424 Released
Nechckn - 2009-08-27 02:38:33:
Auctioneeros,
We are pleased to release Auctioneer 5.6, which is fully compatible with World of Warcraft 3.2.x.
Installation Notes:
Adds workarounds for some Blizzard bugs in WoW 3.2 which impact Auctioneer. Please make sure Auc-Util-FixAH is enabled in your Addon list to employ these temporary fixes.
Please be sure to read and follow http://Wiki.Norganna.Org/Installing when upgrading your installation.
Major new features implemented since version 5.5:
Massive speed improvements to searches in the SearchUI, particularly for non-resale searches
Improvements in posting speed from Appraiser, both for single items and batch posting
Lots of behind the scenes optimization and code tweaking to implement better caching and get better performance throughout Auctioneer
Profile enhancements now allow for copying profiles and resetting back to defaults
Tooltip configuration now possible from a single configuration location
Enhanced Auctioneer's ability to manage and report statistics for multiple realms and factions
Searchers can now individually select the price model they should use in their calculations
Snatch searcher now allows for pricing as a percentage of current market price, rather than just static prices
Default sort order now remembered properly in SearchUI and BeanCounter
BeanCounter now reports profit and loss for all searches
BeanCounter bugfixes and database maintenance updates
External BeanCounter window can now be resized wider
Appraiser price reported should now be consistent across all modules, including all relevant matching
Filtered auctions are still ignored by statistics, but are now included in the current AH snapshot and will display in Appraiser competition frames
Corrects issues with the Appraiser Refresh button sometimes not refreshing all competition
Updates to Enchantrix for new disenchanting, prospecting, and milling reagents and skill levels
Additional options and filters available for auto-disenchanting in Enchantrix
We now use Blizzard provided vendor sell values
Includes all the latest localizations available.
For a complete, detailed inventory of our changes, see the complete Change Log at http://fisheye.norganna.org/browse/Auctioneer .
Request for Localization Help:
Please, if you have any sort of decent grasp of any of the languages in use by various WoW locales, we are in need of help localizing Auctioneer, Informant, and the other AddOns listed at http://Localizer.Norganna.Org .
Registering takes only moments and you can be on your way... it is quite simple. Even if you only have the time/inclination to help with a few translations, that will be better than what we have now for some of the locales.
Before starting, kindly take a look at http://forums.norganna.org/discussion/9517/translation-format/ for some basic thoughts.

Revision: 4421 How did this code ever work previously like this? *BOGGLE* Fix BCNT-277
Revision: 4420 Merge of recent changes including the reintroduction of the paging fix for the AH, which, apparently was changed during a hotfix or "something". Also fix to scandata to ensure it displays, along with the stack size, whenever it is loaded. Change to allow the BCNT frame to show when the AH is opened and to allow it to be resized. Some modifications to ENX localization framework, such as strings.
Revision: 4419 Reintroduce the PageOneReturn.lua since, it is quite apparent that the AH has returned to the old, broken behavior. Also, commented out the auto-disable code so that a new release is not needed for each build.
Revision: 4418 Reintroduce the PageOneReturn.lua since, it is quite apparent that the AH has returned to the old, broken behavior. Also, commented out the auto-disable code so that a new release is not needed for each build.
Revision: 4417 Fixes [BCNT-276] The External BeanCounter search window now has a small button in the bottom right that allows the user to drag the window making it wider.
Revision: 4416 Fixes [ADV-94] Auctioneer Classic has been decommissioned. Interaction between advanced and classic is no longer an issue. Command interface enhanced to show help according to which slash command triggered it, and to act upon auctioneer slash command.
Revision: 4415 Fixes [ADV-152] All code to routines found by GetAllModules are wrapped in pcall. Those places that looked at function outputs now will log to nlog the failure, the other locations just silently ignore the error.
Revision: 4414 ENX-118, ENX-110 - update enchantrix constants and baselines for 3.2, update translation strings
Revision: 4413 Fixes [SPRG-8] Adds percentage calculation to display. Thanks to Gregity for the code fix for this and SPRG-3.
Revision: 4412 Fixes [SPRG-3] Modifies time left to "Done" once scan is complete.
Revision: 4411 Implements [SDAT-6]. Stack size breakdown now always displayed. The old code tried to check for there being only a single stack size listed in the snapshot. If so, it would not display the stack size breakdown. Unfortunately, the dist.stack table is sparse, and so the return of #(dist.stack) actually returns the size until the first non-existant stack (e.g. a 0 if there is no 1 stack, a 3 if stacks are (1,2,3,10,20), a 5 if they are (1,2,3,4,5,19), etc.).
Since there is no easy, clean way to count the table size for sparse tables, for the moment I've just removed the check altogether. If saving that one line becomes important down the road, we can add it another table iteration to do a count first.
Revision: 4410 Starts [ASER-244] The searchUI manifest window will now remember the sort direction and any column order movements the user has mad across sessions.
The columns can be moved by right clicking and dragging the header frame. ALT+Right click to resize a column
Revision: 4409 Merge of recent changes, including workaround in ENX to avoid tooltip issue, fix to tooltip from scandata, and fix so that purchases remove items from snapshot just after purchase.
Revision: 4408 Fixes [SDAT-15], corrects copy/paste error so that suffix and base totals are reported which match the PriceLevel breakdowns.
Revision: 4407 [ENX-120] - work around nil links coming into the Enchantrix tooltip handlers for now, leave them as separate tests so we can debug it once we have a reproduceable case
Revision: 4406 Fixes [ADV-477] Returns treating very small result sets as a getAll. Also moved parameterized commit function to a private function as improper calling could corrupt/taint the scan data.
Revision: 4405 Fixes [APPR-277] Reverses direction of slider movement in Duration slider when using scrollwheel.
Revision: 4404 Merge of recent changes; BCNT change to allow use of external BCNT window while the AH is opened, removal of the paging fix in FixAH, and change to the disable code.
Revision: 4403 Removes the pageone fix as no longer needed.
Revision: 4402 Removes the pageone fix as no longer needed.
Revision: 4401 Update AH Page One Search fix for Live realm client version 10314
Revision: 4400 Adds [BCNT-274] BeanCounter's External search window will be usable at the same time as the AuctionHouse window. It will only hide if the user selects the BeanCounter tab on the AuctionHouse.
Revision: 4399 Merge of recent change to BCNT to help in the recording of "failed" auctions.
Revision: 4398 Fixes [BCNT-272] Should make failed auctions record more reliably. Expands time window failed auctions will be matched against from 20 minutes to 4 hours. So we search 2 hours before and 2 hours after estimated posting time. Comments out a lot if debug code, debug will now ONLY report when a mail FAILS to record.
Revision: 4397 Merge of recent changes to help with BCNT's APPR integration and column sorting. Also change to ensure the setting to integrate/remove the SearchUI from the AH frame functions as expected.
Revision: 4396 Once more, with properties defined.
Revision: 4395 Adding in appropriate revision code for ##Revision.
Revision: 4394 Update Glypher TOC metadata
Revision: 4393 Fixes [BCNT-269] If user has rearranged the BeanCounter column order, the users last selected column to sort by and sort direction, will be properly applied next across play sessions.
Revision: 4392 Fixes [BCNT-268] Automated searches of BeanCounter while browsing the AH will display all checked filter options. The players current filter options will be used for API queries that lack the settings filter table.
Revision: 4391 Fixes [BCNT-270] Adds check to make sure we have a valid item before attempting to :match() when running the 2.09 bit of DB upgrade code. Would error if the itemIDName array was empty.
Revision: 4390 Fixes [ASER-241] The setting to disable SearchUI's integrated "Search" tab on the Auctionhouse should now work properly
Revision: 4389 Merge of recent changes, including change to INF to use new vendor sales price from the API, fix to ENX to display TT information correctly, and strings from localizer.
Revision: 4388 [ENX-119] - fix the link decoding to handle spell and enchant links
Revision: 4387 [INF-68] This replaces the database value with the Blizz-supplied value at the time of lookup. Still need to remove references to our database value, probably should also remove the display from the extra tooltip, which is now redundant. Finally, will need to remove the sell-to-vendor value from the database and change the updater script not to look for it, and notify Wowhead we don't need them to supply it any more.
Revision: 4386 Completes [MISC-58] Update of strings from Localizer for AUC, BCNT, ENX, ENXBRK, and INF.
Revision: 4385 Merge of addition to FixAH to help deal with recent API issue, introduced along with 3.2 patch. message() API has a bad frame reference. This will override with the proper frame reference.
Revision: 4384 Adds fix for Blizzards message API bug introduced in patch 3.2 message() API has a bad frame reference. This will override with the proper frame reference.
Revision: 4383 Merge of changes to include TOCs and clean up to help reduce chance of posting issues from APPR.
