- Patch 5592 by Goba: let drupal_map_assoc() rule.  :-)

- Renamed CHANGELOG to CHANGELOG.txt for Windows uses.

- Batch two with profile module improvements:
   + Reworked the 'account administration' page.
   + Fixed bug in the 'edit account' page.
   + Removed some dead code from the system.module.

   + Tidied up the profile configuration page: grouped form elements.

   + Tidied up the block configuration settings: removed hard-coded
     table.

   + Changed the profile API to return the preferred group name, and
     changed the user module to group settings.  Modules implementing
     the _user hook will need to be udpated.

   + Removed register_form and register_validate for now.

- Improved file matching in profile module.

- Added file handling.  Work by Kjartan.

- table(...) -> theme("table", ...)

- Committed stage 2 of the theme system improvements!  Patch by CodeMonkeyX.

- Usability improvements to the user module: removed some redundant menu
  items by taking advantage of the column sorting, added status messages
  and so on.  Patch by Moshe plus some fixes.

- Made the profile module use the table() function.  Patch by Moshe.

- Fixed breadcrumb spacing.  Patch by Moshe.

- Fixed colspan problem with node overview table.  Patch by Stefan.

- Help improvements and translation improvements from Michael.  Thanks!

- Updated the profile module to use the new help system.  Patch by Michael.

- Some documentation fixes as per Charlie's suggestion: bug #2260.

- Bugfix: fixed problem with changing themes.  Didn't apply Al's patch as
  the fix was somewhat simpler.  Fixes bug #2003.

- Bugfix: fixed problem with voting on certain poll pages.  Patch #37 by Al.

- Improvement: removed stupid descriptions from profile module.

- Improvements: XHTML-ifications.  Patch by GmbH.

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

- Bugfix: an administrator could not edit the avator through the admin interface because it used the global $user object inside its functions rather then the user to be edited.  Patch by Matt Westgate.

- 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.

  commit this yet but I accidentically did so now I've cleaned it up.)

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.

removed this as it is been taken care of by theme_head();  Patch by me.

archive module's calendar.  Patch by Al.

- Usability improvements: made the "birthday" field of the profile module
look nicer.  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?

- Michael Frankowski's excellent help text improvements!
