- Bugfix: when updating a book page, the name of the author did not change.

- Bugfix: the "Edit comments" part of the node administration pages did not
  display the correct comments.

- Bugfix: somethimes, update in a book page would mess up the book.

- Improvement: when "node administrators" update a book page through the
  "update this book page"-link (like regular users do), their update will
  be subject to moderation.

- Improvement: made some intermediate changes to the filter mechanism. Needs
  more work.

- book.module:
   + Re-introduced and re-wrote the book admin pages; there is a separate
     page for every book and a page with all "orphan pages" (= pages that
     got de-linked).

- A couple of new node updates

- updated the "update help"-text

- node system:

   + Added the "delete node"-link: apparently it got lost during the last
     commit.  Odd.

   + Changed "Edit node" to "Edit <node_name>" on the 'edit node'-page of
     the admin section.  (There a 4 "Node"s that still need to be removed
     though.)

   + Updated the initial submission page (the old submit.php) to include
     some descriptions.

- node.module:

   + Changed node_form() to use good ol' tables instead of div/CSS-tags.

   + Revised the "revision API": I think we have both an easy and powerful
     API now that should make everyone happy.

   + Improved the usability of the rollback functionality a bit.

   + Removed the "view node" link from the "node overview" page in the
     admin section and added a "delete node" link instead.

   + Added a few missing translations; there might be missing more
     translations though.

- book.module:

   + Made the book module use the "revision API" instead of having it poke
     and use the innards and underlying details of the revision system.

- queue.module:

   + Made the queue module use the improved revision number.

- module.inc:
   + Applied Moshe's patch: added more arguments to module_invoke()

- mail-to-sql.pl:
   + Added support for more header fields and for folded fields

Notes:

- no database updates required

- Another batch of updates.  The most important bit is that the moderation
  queue should be functional again.  It's not ready yet but I'll be tuning
  it for the next two evenings or so.

- node system:
    + fixed a typo in node_load(): it should be faster now

- book module:
    + removed the functions book_parent() and book_parent_query() as
      they were no longer needed.  Gerhard & co: this should fix the
      occasional SQL errors you get, and should improve performance.

    + made the "next", "previous" and "up" links work correctly ...

    + XHTML-ified the code

    + added some missing translations

  I'm working on the book module now to make it possible to update book
  pages.

- Made the node forms support "help texts": it is not possible to configure
  Drupal to display submission guidelines, or any other kind of explanation
  such as "NO TEST POSTS", for example.

- Added node versioning: it is possible to create revisions, to view old
  revisions and to roll-back to older revisions.  You'll need to apply a
  SQL update.

  I'm going to work on the book module now, so I might be changing a few
  things to enable collaborative, moderated revisions - but feel free to
  send some first feedback, if you like.

- Added some configuration options which can be used to set the minimum
  number of words a blog/story should consist of.  Hopefully this will
  be usefull to stop the (almost empty) test blogs.

- Various improvements:
   + Fine-tuned new node permission system.
   + Fine-tuned the functions in node.inc.
   + Fine-tuned some forms.
   + XHTML-ified some code.

- Added error handling support to the <node>_form hook.

- Another batch of updates/improvements:

   + introduced basic node permissions ("create", "delete", "update" and
     "view") at the node level: it's up to the "<$node->type>_module" to
     hide gory details (if any).

   + made the "blog it"-feature in the blog and import module work with
     the new node system, in specific with the new centralized forms.

   + made it possible to update blogs.

   + made the page module work with the new node system.

   + various smaller improvements.

- A large batch of updates, amongst them a rewritten node system.  More
  information available on the mailing list.

  easier. Also changed the <? tag to <?php in some cases.

- Removed a node's link ID (lid) as discussed on the mailing list.  See
  'updates/3.00-to.x.xx.mysql' for the required MySQL updates.

- Renamed some "author" fields to "uid" fields for sake of consistency.

- Fixed the coding style of some PHP files.

- Fixed the moderation queue (fairly untested though).

- Re-introduced the temporary SQL table in _node_get().

- Added a missing 'auto_increment' to 'updates/3.00-to-x.xx.mysql'.

- fixed 4 SQL queries to use ANSI SQL instead: '||' --> 'OR'

- PEAR-ification of Drupal by claw: you can now host Drupal on a wide
  range of databases including MySQL, PostgreSQL, MSSQL, and others.

  For additional information and an 'how to upgrade', check the mails
  sent to the mailing list.

- fixed a SQL bug in the "next / prev" code of book.module

- fixed small glitch in node_del()

- fixed small glitch in comment_del()

- changed the API of the form() function.  The first parameter, the
  "action"-attribute in the <form>-tag has been made optional.  By
  default, it will be set to "$REQUEST_URI".

  Why? Because in 98% of the cases we would do:

    global $REQUEST_URI;
    $form = form($REQUEST_URI, $form_content);

  while we can do:

    $form = form($form_content);

  now.

  Update your modules (and sorry for the inconvenience)!

- book.module: fixed "/admin.php" bug reported by Gerhard.

- search.module: made the search categories translatable.

- fixed book.module not generating next/prev links properly
- re-added default node options to the admin page
- fixed a potential bug in node.php. Nodes with same titles were confusing it
  at times, should fix the bug reported by Gerhard Killesreiter.

- improved the search system by making it context sensitive

- Added the new user module!

- just a minor update to sort books of the same weight by title.

- Changed the authentication and login scheme as discussed on the mailing
  list.
- Fixed the export function in book.module (patch my Julian).
- Fixed the comment alignment (comments got truncated).

- format_username() now takes a second optional parameter which gives the
  real name of the user.

Rest
- updated the calls to format_username() where appropriate to show the name
  of the user instead of the account id. Clicking on a name will still give you
  the account info etc. If you find a place where the real name is not shown
  let me know.

- Various updates, mostly related to our RDF/RSS backend.

- Added improvement locale.module, based on Gerhard K.'s implementation.
  (Thanks Gerhard!)

- Various other small improvements.

Extremely large commit:

- Fixed tiny quote problem in account.php.

- Fixed tiny bug in comment.inc.

- Fixed tiny bug in comment.module.

- Fixed tiny bug in meta.module.

- Simplified user_access() API.

- Rewrote link system: still needs fine-tuning and testing so don't
  upgrade if you are running a production site. ;)

  Updated all modules and themes to reflect this change.  All other
  themes and modules need updating too!

- Fixed problem with book.module (reported by Jared).

- Fixed problem with forum.module (reported by Jared).

- Fixed problem with book.module (reported by Jared).

- Fixed problem with forum.module (reported by Jared).

- Fixed bug in export module when exporting books to HTML.

- Fixed bug in SQL query in one of the sanity checks of book.module.

- Fixed bug in account.module (reported by Gerhard and Kristjan).

- Incorporated some of the suggestions.  More to come.

- Added a brand-new access.module which allows you to manage 'roles'
  (groups) and 'permissions' ... (inspired by Zope's system).

    + Once installed, click the help-link for more information.

    + See updates/2.00-to-x.xx.sql for the SQL updates.

- Modified loads of code to use our new access.module.  The system
  still has to mature though: new permissions have to be added and
  existing permissions need stream-lining.  Awaiting suggestions.

- As a direct result of the new access system, I had to rewrite the
  way the top-level links in admin.php are rendered and displayed,
  and xhtml-ified admin.php while I was at it.

TODO

- Home-brewed modules need updating, home-brewed themes not.
  (Examples: file.module, trip_link.module)

- As soon we *finished* the refactoring of the user system (KJ has
  been working on this refactoring already) we should consider to
  embed this role and permission code into account.module ...

Oops, a rather large commit:

- Changed meta.module, node.module and index.php to use comma-seperated
  lists of attributes rather then "foo=a,bar=b" lists.  This makes it a
  a lot easier to use both modules.  In addition, error handling can be
  discarded as it can't be made any simpler, really ...

  It fits rather nicely in Drupal's design so I'm getting more and more
  happy with this meta.module (but we are not 100% there yet).

- node.module, node.inc:

   + Improved the node-related admin interface so that navigating back
     and forth the administrative menus is made both easier and faster.

   + Removed some redundant database fields from the node table.  See
     2.00-to-x.xx.sql!

   + Added 2 news hooks called "node_insert" and "node_update".  Just
     like this is the case with the existing hook "node_delete" these
     new hooks will automatically get called when a node has been
     inserted or udpated.  Note that this is an optional call-back that
     only needs to be implemented when required.  With the addition of
     these two hooks, the node mechanism (version 1) is pretty well
     completed.

- watchdog.module:
   + Fixed bug whit the 'regular messages' query in the watchdog.module.

- book.module:
   + Fixed bug in book.module: the 'parent' was not set properly when
     updating a book page.
   + Made it so that older versions of a book page are automatically
     reactived upon deletion of the most recent version, i.e. when
     doing a version roll-back.

- comment.inc:
   + Undid Remco's patch to comment.inc; it does not work in some cases.


- conf.module:
   + Fine-tuned some of the options in conf.module a bit.

- marvin.theme:
   + Visual changes to make it look better on Windows browsers.  Mind
     to give some feedback on this?
   + Fixed 3 HTML typos/bugs.
   + XHTML-ified the theme at a best effort basis; I didn't carry the
     XHTML specification with me.
   + Made use of the theme_slogan variable to display the site's slogan.
   + As soon we have at least one valid XHTML theme we can wonder on how
     to integrate other XML namespaces (cfr. MathML story at drop.org).

- database.mysql:
   + Updated database.mysql so that it contains all the latest "database
     patches".

    http://site/export.php?book&node_id
  The export feature should be expanded to allow titles to be used, and made
  more flexible. Will look more at this during the weekend.

This a rather large commit that needs a lot of fine-tuning.  If you
update, you'll break your site as you need switching from structure
to index.module: so this can be considered an intermediate commit.

If you upgrade, and you are welcome to, just create a collection
called "section" (for now) and assign your nodes some attributes
in the described format.

Feedback and bugreports are welcomed.  Questions will be answered.

CHANGES:

- comment system:
   + when replying to a node (rather then to a comment), that
     node is displayed above the reply form.
   + when replying to a comment (rather then to a node), that
     comment is displayd above the reply form.

- removed structure.inc, removed structure.module.

- node.inc:
   + added 2 new node functions called 'node_attribute_edit()' and
     'node_attribute_save()' used to 'hook in' any indexing system
    including your home-brewed stuff if you'd want to.  Currently,
    index.module is the facto default index system.

    See story.module for usage.

- book.module, story.module, poll.module, page.module, forum.module:
   + added preview functionality to administration section (via node
     module).
   + removed all references to structure.inc (category, topic).

- moderate.module:
   + removed all references to structure.inc (category, topic).

- book.module, story.module, page.module, forum.module:
   + increased the sizes of some textareas.

- submit.php:
   + removed all references to structure.inc (category, topic).

- marvin.theme:
   + removed dead code: function story() was depricated.

- unconed.theme:
   + removed hardcoded references to drop.org.

- marvin.theme, unconed.theme, jeroen.theme, yaroon.theme, example.theme:
   + removed all references to structure.inc (category, topic).

TODO:

- file.module, trip_link.module:
   + update preview functionality:
       see story.module for example.
   + remove references to 'cid' and 'tid', use 'attribute' instead:
       see story.module for example.

- extend and build upon index.module as well as making it configurable

- Patched book.module to work with the new node.module (which makes the
  book.module quite a bit shorter/simpler).

- Moved most of the options in structure.module to node.module.  The
  structure.module either needs work, or replacement by index.module:
  see "admin > node > node settings".

  It will do for now and it can always made better when we can think
  of a better solution; it is the best I could think of.   Now what?
  index.module or structure.module?  I'm currently pro index.module.

- Drastically simplified "variable.inc".

- Removed most dependecies on structure.module from all content related
  modules.  Thus making our modules more modular.  ;)

- Fixed calculation glitch in queue.module.

- Fixed potential function name clash/conflict in rating.module, and
  simplified some code on my way.

- Started removing all global variables $status and $rstatus.  Global
  variables are "yucky" so in near future, we will replace all global
  $status variables by a call to node_status().  Originally, $status
  was only introduced as a temporary hack and nothing is as permanent
  as a temporary hack so I took it out when still possible.

- Changed the watchdog messages a bit.

- Replaced $theme->story() by a more generic $theme->node().  All themes
  required an update (and so will your custom themes).
