- 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.

TODO:

- There is code emitting '<div align="right">' which doesn't validate.
- Does our XML feeds validate with the charset changes?
- The forum module's SQL doesn't work properly on PostgreSQL.
components such as lists, form items, removes an ugly hack from the
archive module and should fix the poll problem (although it doesn't
Opera/Konqueror).
- Fixed a typo in the MSSQL database scheme. Patch by Michael Frankowski.
- Removed dependency on "register_globals = on"! Patches by Michael Frankowski.

- Renamed '---' to '<!--break-->'.
- Removed hard-coded call to the statistics module from the node module.
Patch by Gerhard.

patch are:
"polltext" -> "poll-text"
"pollfg" -> "poll-foreground"
"pollbg" -> "poll-background"

+ 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.

improvement.

+ Removed "ascii"-type blocks.
+ Added permission to for "PHP blocks"
+ ...
NOTES:
+ You'll want to run "update.php":
ALTER TABLE blocks DROP remove;
ALTER TABLE blocks DROP name;
+ You'll want to update your custom modules as well as the modules in
the contrib repository. Block function should now read:
function *_block($op = "list", $delta = 0) {
if ($op == "list") {
return array of block infos
}
else {
return subject and content of $delta block
}
}
- removed admin options for queue and comment module if the modules are not
loaded.

* instructions re-organized.
* fixed some minor updates.
- updated database.mysql done by UnConeD.

the numbers.
- fixed user information being set when account is registered (properly this
time, really!)

+ XHTML-ified some HTML.
+ Wrapped a lot of text in the administrative pages in a t()
function.
