We don't run a service similar to update.status.net yet. Maybe we should,
but that's for the future to decide. Currently I view it as a callback
that we want to avoid.
We can't say we officially support PostgreSQL, unfortunately. There
are too many database calls with MySQL specific syntax. This would be
desirable for a 2.0 release, but too much work while maintaining 1.x.
The main difficulty is that we're using PEAR::DB which is aging. If
that's exchanged, maybe we could use PDO or something.
_flow_ reported on IRC that install.php had stopped working. This was
because default plugins had been put into two separate lists, and the
list with AuthCrypt was never loaded when performing an installation.
Core plugins cannot be disabled.
I also removed the Memcache autodetection thing since it should be
solved in a more elegant manner.
Nickname verifications on registration and updates for profiles (not yet
groups) have been improved.
Minor bugs in RegisterAction were also fixed, where multiple forms would
be outputed because the function did not return after showForm(). This
will be solved more permanently with throwing exceptions in the future.
'admin' is a pretty common username that people try when installing;
it was blacklisted because all of our admin panels were at /admin/*,
which would conflict with the admin user's namespace.
Changed the location of all admin panels to /panel/*, blacklisted the
nickname 'panel', and allowed 'admin'. Tested with a fresh install;
seems to work great.
* skip 0-byte config files when initializing, go ahead and redirect to installer if no non-0-byte files
* tweak warning on installer.php to let you know if you have a 0-byte config.php that's not writable, as opposed to generally already having a config.php with data in it
