- Patch #19451 by JonBob: improved consistency of module descriptions.  We should write guidelines for this -- maybe in the PHPDoc code of the _help hook.

  I found another HTML typo, and replaced a <u></u> by <strong></strong> because <u> does not validate as 'XHTML 1.0 stict'.

- Refactored the queue module: removed the queue module's field from the node table.  With help from Gerhard.

- Slight addition to INSTALL.txt with regard to PHP versions.

- Updated/reworded some node type descriptions as per Boris' suggestions.

- Adding missing {} around a table name in update.php.

- Patch #11728 by Uwe Hermann: fixed some typos in the code comments, Doxygen documentation and screen output.

  Uwe: I dropped the 'iff' chunks as 'iff' stands for 'if and only if'.

- Patch #8179 by JonBob: reintroduced menu caching.

- Patch by JonBob: for consistency and readability, add brief descriptions of each source file inside the @file comment block at the head of the file. This helps with Doxygen indexing, and also allows neophytes to see what a file does immediately on opening the source, regardless of the organization of the hooks.

- Patch by Al: don't translate all help text upon every page view!

- Patch #9983 by Stefan: various code style improvements.

- Patch by Al: improved the admin/help pages (first step).

- Patch #8973 by JonBob: Drupal contains many undefined variables and array indices, which makes PHP throw a lot of warnings when the reporting level is set to E_ALL. Things run fine with these warnings, but as a matter of code style if nothing else we should probably strive to avoid them. The attached fixes most of the more egregious offenders (about 95% of the warnings when I load /node on my test site).

Tabs patch!

CHANGES
-------

 + Introduced tabs. First, we extended the menu system to support tabs. Next, a tab was added for every link that was (1) an administrative action other than the implicit 'view' (2) relevant to that particular page only. This is illustrated by the fact that all tabs are verbs and that clicking a page's tab leads you to a subpage of that page.

 + Flattened the administration menu. The tabs helped simplify the navigation menu as I could separate 'actions' from 'navigation'. In addition, I removed the 'administer > configuration'-menu, renamed 'blocks' to 'sidebars' which I hope is a bit more descriptive, and made a couple more changes. Earlier, we already renamed 'taxonomy' to 'categorization' and we move 'statistics' under 'logs'.

 + Grouped settings. All settings have been grouped under 'administer > settings'.

TODO
----

 + Update core themes: only Xtemplate default supports tabs and even those look ugly.  Need help.

 + Update contributed modules.  The menu() hook changed drastically.  Updating your code adhere the new menu() function should be 90% of the work.  Moreover, ensure that your modue's admin links are still valid and that URLs to node get updated to the new scheme ('node/view/x' -> 'node/x').

- Added support for 403 handling.  Patch by JonBob.  As a side benefit,
  administrators will be able to define a custom 403 page, just as they
  can define 404 pages now.

  This needs to be documented in the "Changes since / migrating to ..."
  pages.

Patch 5287 by Stefan: multiline help texts should become inside a single $output.

- Committed phase 4 of JonBob's menu system changes.

- Patch by JonBob:

  Phase 2 of the menu system integration project. This unifies the interface
  used by admin and non-admin pages, and deprecates the _page hook in favor of
  explicit callbacks from menu(). Breadcrumbs, titles, and help text go away
  as a result of this patch; they will return in the phase 3 patch, printed
  by the theme.

- Committed part 3 of Michael's help system improvements: removed the $help
  parameter from the menu() function.

- Help system improvements: eliminated the _system hook.  Patch by Michael.

  The following modules need updating:

    * mailhandler module
    * notify module
    * project module
    * smileys module

* Applied slightly modified version of Marco's taxonomy patch:

 - Fixed a bug with get_tree and multiple parents.
 - Fixed 3 wrong caches (this will avoid some queries).
 - Extension to taxonomy_term_count_nodes() (feature #159): "currently
   calling taxonomy_term_count_nodes() returns the amount of nodes in each
   term, would it be possible to extend this function so that it would only
   return the amount of nodes of a certain type under each term.
 - Confirm deleting a vocabulary or a term (requested by Moshe).
 - Use form_weight() in vocabulary and term forms.
 - After submitting a term, we end up at the term page (requested by Moshe).
 - Added status messages when adding, editing and deleting vocabularies and
   terms
 - Minor clean ups

* Made sure all modules use the same link delimiter; "|" for now.

- Commited kika's usability patch for the help module.

- fixed comment flat list view missing 1 comment.
- changed update.php around a bit.
    * security check isn't in effect if the db hasn't been updated.

    + Changed the db_query() API.

    + Wrapped all links in l(), lm(), la(), ..., drupal_url() functions.

    + XHTML-ified some HTML.

    + Wrapped a lot of text in the administrative pages in a t()
      function.

    + Replaced all $REQUEST_URI/$PATH_INFOs by request_uri().

    + Small bugfixes (eg. bug in book_export_html() and clean-ups (eg.
      RSS code).

    + Fixed some bugs in the taxonomy module (eg. tree making bug), added
      new functionality (eg. new APIs for use by other modules), included
      Moshe's taxonomy extensions, and some documentation udpates.

    + ...

- A large batch of updates, amongst them a rewritten node system.  More
  information available on the mailing list.

  easier. Also changed the <? tag to <?php in some cases.
