common_logged_in() returned bogus results because it checks against null specifically, but common_current_user() was sticking 'false' into $_cur because that's what User::staticGet() returned from a failed lookup. Now we skip over a failed lookup here, so we keep null and all is well.
* 0.9.x:
Added a events for the settings menu items
Bringing Sphinx search support up to code: broken out to a plugin, now supports multiple sites on a single server.
Changed to Evan's event style and added an AuthPlugin superclass
add geo output to statuses in json, xml, atom, rss in API
Localisation updates from translatewiki.net (2009-11-10)
Localisation updates from translatewiki.net
Update pot
add lat and long parameters to api/statuses/update
change credential check to work more like other events
fixup output of object attributes in db error code
Performance fix for subscription/subscriber lists based on feedback from ops.
Adjusting indexes to make favorites query more efficient, based on feedback from ops.
Revert untested code; spews PHP notice warnings on every page view: "just sent a http 200 for the check-fancy from install.php"
Added hook for the Group navigation items
Updated block @title text (shouldn't say from group)
Updated group block markup
Revert "Remove more contractions"
Upgrade notes:
* Index names have changed from hardcoded 'Identica_people' and 'Identica_notices' to use the database name and actual table names. Must reindex.
New events:
* GetSearchEngine to override default search engine class selection from plugins
New scripts:
* gen_config.php generates a sphinx.conf from database configuration (with theoretical support for status_network table, but it doesn't seem to be cleanly queriable right now without knowing the db setup info for that. Needs generalized support.)
* Replaced old sphinx-indexer.sh and sphinx-cron.sh with index_update.php
Other fixes:
* sphinx.conf.sample better matches our live config, skipping unused stopword list and using a more realistic indexer memory limit
Further notes:
* Probably doesn't work right with PostgreSQL yet; Sphinx can pull from PG but the extraction queries currently look like they use some MySQL-specific functions.
Extended subscription table indexes for subscriber and subscribed to include the created field, which is used to sort for display. This lets us skip a filesort and do the join much more efficiently.
Alter table from 08to09.sql needs to be run manually (though no ill effects if you forget other than not getting the perf improvement).
