#242121 Removing the outdated patchfiles from head. The proper patch files should be found in the Drupal version directories.

#242121 mikejoconnor: Created a Drupal-6 branch of advcache. Added node, path, and taxonomy patches.

Today is my day for screwed up releases. 1.4 and 1.5 have a critical bug with clearing the block cache.

Block caching =) Not like the blockcache module... no configuration... just apply patch and go. Shaves 1.5 ms off of each page load on my MacBook, anonymous as well as authenticated.

#152938 patch by me, new strategy for node cache clearing to accommodate the role-based caching. Needs some eyeballs (that means you, slantview ;-) Also fixes a call to undefined function in the case that forum module is not enabled.

#148279 by aymerick and robertDouglass: add forum caching. Same warning as with taxonomy caching applies here... if db_rewrite_sql is rewriting taxonomy queries, as is the case in taxonomy access type modules, this patch should not be used.

#147977 fixing node cache so that the same rules apply to loading the cache as to setting. #147456 allowing a variable, 'advcache_node_exclude_types', determine whether a node type should be excluded from caching. Defaults to array('poll') so polls work. Rolling against DRUPAL-5-1

add link to http://drupal.org/node/100301 to give credit where credit due for the excellent path caching patch.

search caching now avoids violating node_access rules. If any node access restrictions are in place, no search caching is done.

adding search result caching for authenticated users. The drupal page cache already caches search pages for anonymous users. This caches search results if the user is not uid=1, is authenticated, has exactly one role, and the query is a popular query (ie it has been searched 3 or more times according to watchdog)

adding path caching. This is just a copy of the latest patch from #100301 (without the system update and install bits)

Initial import of advcache. This is a series of extra cache tables and patches to cache parts of Drupal core that are not normally cached. Comments, nodes and taxonomy are implemented. Search results and paths are TODO.
