- Improvement: some small changes to the user module to ease translation and to make things slightly more consistent.  This should be a better alternative for patch #54.

TODO:

- Some modules such as the buddy list module and the annotation module in the contributions repository are also using session_register().  They should be updated.  We should setup a task on Drupal.

- There is code emitting '<div align="right">' which doesn't validate.

- 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:

- I just spotted a problem with the promote field; it does not seem to be
  "sticky" when you click the preview button.  I checked and this was also
  the case prior to applying this patch.

Removed node_get_node_from_nid() and modified node_load() to take an optional 2nd arguments to return a specified revision.  Patch be Kjartan.

- Committed Al's rollback fixes and the title improvements.  Thanks again.

- Michael Frankowski's excellent help text improvements!

- Fixed braino.  Reported by Remco as bug #1787.

- Fixed validate problem.  Patch by Ax.

- Removed check_output() from the theme system layer.

- Undid Kjartan's latest change (it breaks the feeds) and fixed it properly.

  page renders properly when a user does not have access to content.

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

- Fixed typo in URL().  Patch by Al.

- Added a filter option to disable/enable the rewrite_old_urls() filter.
  See task #1542.

- Some fields can be passed through the $_GET array (eg. to make the "blog
  it" modules work).  Patch by Ax.

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

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

- Removed dependency on "register_globals = on"!  Patches by Michael Frankowski.

  Notes:

  + Updated the patches to use $foo["bar"] instead of $foo['bar'].
  + Updated the INSTALL and CHANGELOG files as well.

- Tiny improvement to the "./scripts/code-clean.sh" script.

- Added an option to make "node previews" optional.  Patch by n8.  See
  "site configuration > modules > node".

- Fixed the function prototypes of the newly introduced theme_user_list(),
  theme_node_list(), and theme_menu_list().  This will fix the excessive
  gap between lists and avoids generating empty <b></b> constructs.

- Committed Adrian's item patch.  It would be nice if one or more of the
  standard themes could be updated to demonstrate the possibilities.

- Fixed some PHP "notices".

- 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"

- Renamed '---' to '<!--break-->'.

- Removed hard-coded call to the statistics module from the node module.
  Patch by Gerhard.

- Removed tables from poll module.  Modified patch by Al.  Changes to Al's
  patch are:
    "polltext" -> "poll-text"
    "pollfg"   -> "poll-foreground"
    "pollbg"   -> "poll-background"

- Changed some 'statistics.foo's to 's.foo's.  Patch by Gary.

[If this closes any bug reports, please update them on drupal.org.]

- Fixed some SQL query directives.

- Bugfix: deleting a node should flush the cache.

- 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.

- Modified some moderation logic to make it more workable.

    * 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.
