- Applied Marco's big patch, including contributions from Moshe:

    + 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.

    + ...

- fix mail templating bugs
- fix admin account editing (related to theme changeover)
- fix description when editing a Jabber ID.

Committing Changes by Moshe Weitzman:
- admin_user_account(), user_edit(), and user_view() no longer have any
  hard code for authentication modules. instead authentication modules
  implement the _user hook.
- fixed a couple 'help' typos.
- linked the 'REGISTER' text in the login block to the register page.
  this page now advertises DA better if site employs DA.
- admins may now edit everything about a user account (was a feature
  request).
- user #1 may now login immediately, in addition to receiving his
  password via email.

Other changes:
- modules and themes are now enabled/disabled in the administrative /
  settings / modules | themes pages. Requires SQL update and things must
  be enabled before your site returns to normal. TODO: enable all
  functionality. (For now just do UPDATE system SET status = 1;)
- removed $themes from conf.php.
- added a $theme->system() function where theme can specify settings.
  All themes in the Drupal CVS have been updated to use this.
- added _system hook to modules. TODO: update modules to use this.
- changed strange use of sprintf to the usual strtr. The disadvantage of
  sprintf is that it requires translations to keep the string order,
  which may not be possible in all languages.
- an invalid/nonexisting theme in a user profile will now fallback to the
  BaseTheme instead of crashing.

- Removed annoying Windows end-of-line characters.

  passing them that way.

jabber.module:
  - removed some dull watchdog()s

User module and DA modules:

  + Updated the documentation to use a Jabber or Drupal IDs instead of
    Deplhi IDs (as delphi.module won't be part of the default distro).
    Drupal and Jabber authentication make a better example.

  + added missing localization / t() functions in
    user_validate_authmaps()

  + applied coding convention:
      * fixed indentation
      * removed "EOF"; and <<EOFs from user module
      * changed some HTML into XHTML: use small letters, quote
        attributes
      * quoted some array indices: $edit[foo] --> $edit["foo"]

  + removed some useless sprintf()'s

  + removed hard-coded references to drop.org.

  + I don't think the authentication methods should /know/ there help
    link.  Instead, the user module should now where to find the help
    (it does by knowing the hook to look for), and it is the user
    module that should take care of exporting the help to the preferred
    location:
      * removed the "link" field from the $info field in drupal_info
        and jabber_info; it wasn't used anyway?

  + removed the "maintainer" and "maintaineremail" from the auth
    modules; we don't keep this info in the other modules either so
    I don't see a reason to do so here.
