- Bugfix: fixed the authmap table in the MSSQL scheme. Patch by Moshe.
- Bugfix: properly themes some error messages in the user module. Patch
by Moshe.
a reserved SQL keyword. Required for both PostgreSQL and MSSQL. Patch by
Adrian.
- Bugfix: renamed the 'path' table to 'url_alias' as 'path' is a reserved SQL
keyword. Required for both PostgreSQL and MSSQL. Patch by Adrian.
- comment.module: fixed an ambigous 'timestamp' query
- forum.module: prev/next links no longer excerpt from the title+body in
their title attribute. they now excerpt from only their title. this is
more consistent with rest of drupal, and GROUP BY on node.body which
isn't appreciated by MSSQL. also replaced some '' with NULL which caused
errors in MSSQL
- statistics.module: replaced a USING join with a standard ON join. USING
is not as widely supported, and functionally equivalent.

This adds session support for anonymous users and fixes a bug/typo.
1. changed rid for user #0 from 0 to 1 (rid 1 == anonymous user) to make
inner join work.
2. replaced "if ($user .." by "if ($user->uid .." because now $user is
always set (my previous change probably caused this).
3. db_next_id("user_uid") -> db_next_id("users_uid");

PostgreSQL and MSSQL database scheme as well.
- Made sure the update script updates the correct tables when database
prefixing is enabled. Patch by Bart Jansens.
- Improved the breadcrumb navigation of the book and the forum module as per
Keith Instone's suggestions.
- Updated page titles (or block titles) and links to match. Suggested by
Keith Instone.
- Added missing 'thread' field to the comment table of the MySQL database scheme.
Fixes bug #2590.
+ Dramatically improves performance of large discussions/threads: only
very few SQL queries are required.
+ Replaces custom pager with standard pager.
Modifications by me:
+ Reworded some code comments.
+ Removed dependencies on pager internals.
- 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.
- Improvement: improved the error checking and the error messages in the profile module. Updated the code to match the Drupal coding conventions. Modified patch from Matt Westgate.
- Improvement: don't generate the <base href=""> tag in the base theme; it is already emitted by theme_head(). Patch by Kristjan.
- Improvement: don't execute any SQL queries when checking the permissions of user #1. Patch by Kjartan.
- Improvement: made a scalable layout form that works in IE and that behaves better with narrow themes. Part of patch #51 by Al.
- Improvement: removed some redundant print statements from the comment module. Modified patch from Craig Courtney.
==> This fix requires to run update.php!
- Bugfix: made sessions work without warnings when register_globals is turned off. The solution is to use $_SESSION instead of session_register(). This fixes critical bug #1797. Patch by Marco.

TODO:
- Some modules such as the buddy list module and the annotation module in the contributions repository are also using session_register(). They should be updated. We should setup a task on Drupal.
- 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.
- Fixed a typo in the MSSQL database scheme. Patch by Michael Frankowski.

+ Updated the INSTALL and CHANGELOG files as well.
- Tiny improvement to the "./scripts/code-clean.sh" script.
blogroll feature as I think it would get very confusing. I don't mind
to add it but it need some thought and documentation as it somewhat
conflicts with the existing cloud module.
These changes require you to run update.php.
