o Permission improvements:

   + Removed the "post content" permission and replaced it by more fine-grained permissions such as "maintain static pages", "maintain personal blog", "maintain stories", etc.

o Usability improvements to teasers:

   + Teaser forms are no more.  Teasers are extracted automatically but can also be instructed using a delimiter "---".  Furthermore, when a post it too short for a teaser, the user won't be bother with teaser stuff anymore.

   + Added an option to set the teaser length, or to disable teasers all together.

   + When previewing a post, both the short (if any) and the full version of a post are shown.  This addresses a common complaint; for example, when writing a book page there was no way you could preview the short version of your post.

   + Forum posts can be teasered now.  This is particularly helpful in the context of drupal.org where we promote forum topics.

o Bugfix: replaced all PHP short tags (<?) with long tags (<?php).

o Bugfix: removed hard-coded dependence on comment module.

o Bugfix: when the queue module was disabled, it was not possible to approve updated book pages.

o Bugfix: applied modified version of Marco's node_teaser() fix.

* Applied slightly modified version of Marco's taxonomy patch:

 - Fixed a bug with get_tree and multiple parents.
 - Fixed 3 wrong caches (this will avoid some queries).
 - Extension to taxonomy_term_count_nodes() (feature #159): "currently
   calling taxonomy_term_count_nodes() returns the amount of nodes in each
   term, would it be possible to extend this function so that it would only
   return the amount of nodes of a certain type under each term.
 - Confirm deleting a vocabulary or a term (requested by Moshe).
 - Use form_weight() in vocabulary and term forms.
 - After submitting a term, we end up at the term page (requested by Moshe).
 - Added status messages when adding, editing and deleting vocabularies and
   terms
 - Minor clean ups

* Made sure all modules use the same link delimiter; "|" for now.

- Applied Natrak's "create PHP content" patch.

- Made "<root>" translatable.  Patch by Stefan.

- Some improvements to streamline book maintanance: weights and titles can
  now be changed on the book overview page in the admin page.  Editing the
  "Drupal handbook" (100+ pages?) on drupal.org became a time-consuming
  process, hence these improvements ...

- Added printer-friendly links to the book pages.

- Applied db_query() fix.  Thanks Gerhard and Marco.

- Updated the book module documentation a bit.

- fixed comment flat list view missing 1 comment.
- changed update.php around a bit.
    * security check isn't in effect if the db hasn't been updated.
    * instructions re-organized.
    * fixed some minor updates.
- updated database.mysql done by UnConeD.
- changelog update.

- fixed access checks on the register form, do this before you enter the
  _save function. If registrations are disabled the register link will
  no longer show (again).
- changed &#187 to &raquo, using the names of entities are better than
  the numbers.
- fixed user information being set when account is registered (properly this
  time, really!)
- reversed the if(!...) commit.
- node_add specifies more defaults.
- added link to blog entries from user page.

- fixing the UI to represent what actually happens when you are an admin.

- updated node modules not to cause errors when taxonomy module is disabled.
- added %date variable to user mail configuration.
- added hyperlinks to admin.php?mod=system (site configuration) for easy access.
- usual coding style and xhtml fixes.

- fixed block permissions.
- fixed user admin page errors: http://www.drupal.org/node.php?id=173.
- cleaned up common.inc a bit: removed format_info, path_img, field_merge.

    * fixed mails not being parsed properly.
    * tracker now shows user name when you view your own recent
      comments.
    * link to submission queue now points to the right place.
    * fixed jabber module.
    * theme is now activated when changed.
- applied Gerhards coding style patch.

- 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.

    + ...

- fixed poll title not showing up.

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.

  login and one for user information.
- added link to help in book module (post-patch, see below).
- applied various patches:
  Patch by Greg Tyrelle <greg@tyrelle.net>
  - tracker module now shows usernames next to comments.

  Patch by Moshe Weitzman <moshe@wallaware.com>
  - book module has a more complete help.
  - added administrative link to export book to html
  - fixed non book nodes not showing up in trees.

  Patch by moshe weitzman <weitzman@tejasa.com>
  - links can be defined in the configuration file.

- Included documentation contributed by Moshe.

  http://www.drupal.org/node.php?id=91

- Made the calendar module accept a $date parameter such that you
  can jump directly to a certain date in the archives.  Also made
  the calendar link to itself such that it is self-contained.

- Code beautifications: quoted a lot of arrays, removed dead code
  and simplified a few things.

- Replaced the Calendar class by one function "calendar_display":
  using a class (or class instance, or object) doesn't make sense
  in the archives' case.

- Renamed "calendar.module" to "archive.module".

- Fixed a /problem/ with node settings not always being saved like
  expected.

- Reorganized the user menu: renamed a couple of links for clarity
  and structure.

- Fixed a few typos.

- Added some more explanations.

- Added about 50 title tags.

- Fixed a small glitch in book_tree()

- import.module:

    + Improved input filtering; this should make the news items look
      more consistent in terms of mark-up.

    + Quoted all array indices: converted all instances of $foo[bar]
      to $foo["bar"].  Made various other changes to make the import
      module compliant with the coding style.

- theme.inc:

    + Fixed small XHTML glitch

- comment system:

    + Made it possible for users to edit their comments (when certain
      criteria are matched).

    + Renamed the SQL table field "lid" to "nid" and updated the code
      to reflect this change: this is a rather /annoying/ change that
      has been asked for a few times.  It will impact the contributed
      BBS/forum modules and requires a tiny SQL update:

        sql> ALTER TABLE comments CHANGE lid nid int(10) NOT NULL;

    + Moved most (all?) of the comment related logic from node.php to
      comment.module where it belongs.  This also marks a first step
      towards removing/reducing "node.php".

    + Added a delete button to the comment admin form and made it so
      that Drupal prompts for confirmation prior to deleting a comment
      from the database.  This behavior is similar to that of deleting
      nodes.

    + Disabled comment moderation for now.

    + Some of the above changes will make it easier to integrate the
      upcomcing mail-to-web and web-to-mail gateways.  They are part
      of a bigger plan.  ;)

- node system:

    + Made it so that updating nodes (like for instance updating blog
      entries) won't trigger the submission rate throttle.

    + Fixed a small glitch where a node's title wasn't always passed
      to the $theme->header() function.

    + Made "node_array()" and "node_object()" more generic and named
      them "object2array()" and "array2object()".

    + Moved most (all?) of the comment related logic from node.php to
      comment.module where it belongs.  This also marks a first step
      towards removing/reducing "node.php".

- misc:

    + Applied three patches by Foxen.  One to improve performance of
      the book module, and two other patches to fix small glitches in
      common.inc.  Thanks Foxen!

- "fixed" the code's indentation.

- Back-ported Foxen/Revar's improved book_toc() function.

- Added a "queue for moderation"-toggle to a node's admin form and
  updated the node modules to support this.

- node system:
   + made a small change in the node overview page in the admin section
     such that it lists both new and updated pages by default.

   + reworked the filter-mechanism: it is not 100% finished yet but it
     sure is taking shape.

- Fixed small form glitches.

- book.module:
   + Added (1) support for "PHP pages" (dynamic pages), and (2) made
     it possible to link other node types into the book's tree/outline.
     It works just fine, yet the only (obvious) downside of (2) is
     that the navigation tree/links gets "interrupted" when you view
     non-book pages in the book.
       [SQL update required, see update.php]

   + Tidied up the book table.
       [SQL update required, see update.php]

- various updates:
    + Fine-tuned the new node system.
    + Updated the inline/code documentation.
    + Improved teaser handling of all node types.
    + Made several small usability improvements to the node admin
      pages.

- Added "add new comment"-link (derived from a patch by Axel)

- Added "add new comment"-link (derived from a patch by Axel)

Node and book updates:
  - Fixed a glitch in the book overview in the admin section.
  - When updating a book page through the admin section, no new revision
    is created unless explictely specified.
  - Improved the usability of the node and book pages a little.
