- Improvements: XHTML-ifications.  Patch by GmbH.

- Comment module documentation improvements; updates by Charlie, patch by Al.

- Show a non-clickable example "link" when previewing comments.  Should fix
  bug #1437 for all themes (incl. theme Marvin and theme UnConeD).

- Bugfix: fixed the CREATE FUNCTION in database.mssql as it needs to be prefixed with GO for some obscure reason.  Patch by Kjartan.

- Bugfix: fixed the defaults for blocks in database.mssql so the NOT NULL fields get values.  Patch by Kjartan.

- Bugfix: changed check_form() to use htmlspecialchars() instead of drupal_specialchars() as this caused Drupal to emit incorrect form items in presence of quotes.  Example:

  <input type="submit" class="form-submit" name="op" value="Submit "top nodes" block changes" />

  IMO, drupal_specialchars() is better called xmlspecialchars() to avoid confusion.

- Bugfix: when an anonymous user visits a site, they shouldn't see any content (except the login block, if it is enabled) unless they have the "access content" permissions.  Patch by Matt Westgate.

- Improvement: improved the error checking and the error messages in the profile module.  Updated the code to match the Drupal coding conventions.  Modified patch from Matt Westgate.

- Improvement: don't execute any SQL queries when checking the permissions of user #1.  Patch by Kjartan.

- Improvement: made a scalable layout form that works in IE and that behaves better with narrow themes.  Part of patch #51 by Al.

- Improvement: removed some redundant print statements from the comment module.  Modified patch from Craig Courtney.

- Bugfix: renamed the SQL field 'types' to 'nodes' because 'types' is a reserved keyword in MySQL 4.  This fixes critical bug #1618.  Patch by Marco.

  ==> This fix requires to run update.php!

- Bugfix: made sessions work without warnings when register_globals is turned off. The solution is to use $_SESSION instead of session_register().  This fixes critical bug #1797.  Patch by Marco.

- Does our XML feeds validate with the charset changes?

- The forum module's SQL doesn't work properly on PostgreSQL.

- Usability improvements to the node form.  Patch by Al.  Will incorporate
  some of Moshe's node form work later on.

TODO:

  "sticky" when you click the preview button.  I checked and this was also
  the case prior to applying this patch.

to avoid XSS attacks!  Patch by Al, Moshe, Marco, Kjartan and me.

- Bugfix: the admin module does now import drupal.css prior to admin.css.
Patch by me.

archive module's calendar.  Patch by Al.

------

- TODO: it might be a good idea to emit the following meta tag in the
theme_head() function:

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />

Currently, some themes (and modules!) emit this while others don't.  This
would also make it possible to change the charset site-wide.

- TODO: now we added support for td.dark and td.light to drupal.css, maybe
it can be removed from admin.css as well as xtemplate.css?

- Small usability improvement by Al.

- Fixed bug 1763: changing comment preferences now works again.  Tested with
  authenticated and anonymous users.  Patch by Marco.

- Michael Frankowski's excellent help text improvements!

- My filter commit accidentically broke the comment submission which is now
  fixed.  Patch by Al.

- Removed check_output() from the theme system layer.

- Updated Drupal to use "on output" filters.  Derived from Gerhard's patch.

- Fixed some PostgreSQL issues.  Reported by Michael.

- Removed some dead wood.

- Fixed a typo in the MSSQL database scheme.  Patch by Michael Frankowski.

(Welcome back Marco!)

- Applied  Michael Caerwyn's "%s -> %d" patch.

- Changed all occurences of '%d' to %d as suggested on the mailing list.

- Fixed bug #1545: incorrect sequence tables on PostgreSQL.  Patch by Neil.

  In addition, I have updated update.php so it makes the corresponding
  changes for MySQL users.

- Node API improvements by Moshe:

  "implemented pieces of kjartan's original nodeAPI patch. the mingling
  of other modules into node.module logic decreases (a good thing). for
  example, the string "taxonomy" now appears nowhere in node.module

  - moved the saving of taxonomy terms when submitting a node out of
  node.module and into taxonomy.module

  - moved the deletion of comments while deleting a node out of
  node.module and into comment.module

  - improved usability of node forms by including node type in the title
  of the box and page"

- Changed 'empty()' to '!isset()' to fix a caching bug.  Patch by Garry.

- Fixed a bug in the "comment votes" _and_ "comment filters" page.  Reported
  by Paul C.

  TODO: someone should look into 'comment_mod_matrix()' - it uses a global
        variable $rid that is not set anywhere..

- Fixed some SQL query directives.

- Fixed 3 typos.

- All LIMIT queries must go through the pager or through db_query_range().
  The syntax for db_query_range() was enhanced so it matches db_query(). So
  you may pass extra arguments of the SQL statement which are checked via
  check_query() and then substituted into the SQL statement. After these
  optional arguments, you always pass $from and $count parameters which
  define your range.  Most often, the $from is 0 and the count is the max
  number of records you want returned.  Patch by Moshe.

- The pager_query() function for PEAR was enhanced so that it adds  proper
  GROUP BY statement counting the number of records to be paged. Patch by
  James Arthur.

- MSSQL database scheme by Moshe.

- Modified patch of Moshe.  Enhances the tracker module so it displayes recent
  *nodes* in addition to comments.  This will be helpful for tracking down new
  book nodes, blog posts, news items, and other stuff which isn't interesting
  enough to be promoted to the home page.

  apparently.

    * After having a chat with Dries we have agreed on the logics (or
      more specifically he told me how its supposed to work). The queue
      module is just a method to make moderation public, but its not
      necessarily the only way. This brings the power back.
- Minor interface tweaks (names, case changes, etc).
- Fixed error that would show when you tried to view the profile of a
  blocked user.

- Changed node settings page to use table().
- Minor code beautification here and there.

- Added node_admin_settings() to let users set node defaults.
    * Added _nodeapi("conf")
- Modified form_checkbox() to unset options. (Modified the patch from Ax.)
- Removed the _save() hook.
- Fixed a logical flaw in field_get() and field_set() which would break
  moderation.
- Moved some admin menus around and cleaned up some typos.

- Fixed broken URL in comment form.  Patch by Ax.

- Fixed bug in comment_num_replies() causing problems in the tracker module
  (and potentially in the forum module).

- Fixed some typos spotted by Al Maw.
