- Patch #9866 by njivy: when the links are generated for each item in a list-type profile field, double quotes in the item name can break the link. To fix this, this patch gives drupal_specialchars() the ENT_QUOTES parameter to convert quotes into HTML entities. This fix is also applied to selection-type profile fields which can have the same problem.

- #1322: Adding a warning if the cron fails to complete.
- Simplifying odd commenting syntax

- Patch #6760 by JonBob: refactored the taxonomy module URLs to be nicer, improved the code/Doxygen comments.

  As discussed before, the path "taxonomy/page/or/1,2" becomes "taxonomy/term/1+2" and the path "taxonomy/page/and/1,2" becomes "taxonomy/term/1,2". The most common case of listing nodes attached to a single term becomes simpler, since it doesn't require a meaningless "or" or "and". A depth of "0" is assumed, but a positive integer or "all" can be used. Feeds are available at "taxonomy/term/1+2/all/feed" and the like.

  This iteration of the patch also changes the structure of taxonomy_select_nodes(), since it was not following Drupal conventions. A handful of contrib modules call this function, and will need to be updated. Instead of passing in a $taxonomy object containing parameters for the function, the parameters are passed independently. This simplifies the code quite a bit. The queries were changed to only return node IDs for speed; all results from this function are passed through node_load() anyway, so the extra information returned was discarded. The AND query was also changed to avoid the strange trick and remove an extra query, at the expense of a table join per root term in the AND. This cleans up the code substantially while at the same time enabling the use of AND with a depth parameter.

  TODO: update contribution modules.

- Made the taxonomy module use drupal_goto() to fix up the interaction behavior.

Added an upgrade path for old URL aliases to node/view, book/view and user/view. This is amongst other things required for old node aliases to appear in the node form.

- Patch #9812 by Adrian: fixed some PostgreSQL/ANSI SQL compabitibility
  problems created by the new comment and node access permissions code.

- Patch #7968 by Adrian: use the complete URL as the cache ID to make Drupal's
  caching work on virtual hosts.

- Patch #9330: ucfirst() gives problem when used with multibyte charset.
  Replaced the use of ucfirst() with a CSS-based solution.

- #9811: Remove session ID before matching block path

- Patch #8523 by killes: avoid profile data being deleted when requesting a new
  password.

- Patch by Jeremy: usability improvements for the statistics.module's GUI.

- Patch #9794 by JonBob: a bug introduced late in the review process makes individual node views inaccessible to users who should have permission. This does not affect node listings, so was missed.

- Patch #9775 by TDobes: consistency operation.  Changed to "edit foo," "delete foo," and "view foo" links into simply "edit," "delete," and "view".

- Removing gAMA chunk from xtemplate logo.png for less to avoid more gamma issues.

- Patch #9497 by gordon: made <!--break--> work even when the teaser length
  is set to unlimited and fixed up some code comments.

- Patch #9768 by killes: admin/user/edit/$uid is no more, removed some left-overs.

- Patch #9657: more intelligent theme() function.  Hopefully, Adrian will be
  able to use this patch too.

- Patch #7458 by killes: conditionally include xmlrpc.inc.

- Patch #9757 by Al: improved the aggregator help.  Help texts should be to the point.

- Patch #9740 by Bart: added missing {} for table prefixing.

- Patch #7336 by TDobes: in various parts of Drupal, we use the title attribute for links to provide a slightly more detailed explanation as to the purpose of a link or where it goes.

   + the confirmation before deleting a comment was missing a check_output.
   + after editing a comment, two pages were shown (two calls to theme('page',..)), replaced this by a drupal_goto.

- Patch by Jeremy: statistics module improvements.

- Simplified the block help a bit by removing some dated information.  It
  should be simplified more.

- Fixed broken link + removed redundant form descriptions (there is no point
  in repeating the title).

- Patch #9654 by Bart: since the $category paramater was added to user_save,
  update 80 (moving the profile fields to their own tables) no longer works.

  to set book breadcrumbs for nodes that weren't books.
