I used this hacky sed-command (run it from your GNU Social root, or change the first grep's path to where it actually lies) to do a rough fix on all ::staticGet calls and rename them to ::getKV
sed -i -s -e '/DataObject::staticGet/I!s/::staticGet/::getKV/Ig' $(grep -R ::staticGet `pwd`/* | grep -v -e '^extlib' | grep -v DataObject:: |grep -v "function staticGet"|cut -d: -f1 |sort |uniq)
If you're applying this, remember to change the Managed_DataObject and Memcached_DataObject function definitions of staticGet to getKV!
This might of course take some getting used to, or modification fo StatusNet plugins, but the result is that all the static calls (to staticGet) are now properly made without breaking PHP Strict Standards. Standards are there to be followed (and they caused some very bad confusion when used with get_called_class)
Reasonably any plugin or code that tests for the definition of 'GNUSOCIAL' or similar will take this change into consideration.
User links using the ID number (such as created for @-replies) have been failing on Internet Explorer, since IE doesn't bother to actually say it supports text/html...
We usually get something like this from IE, up through at least IE 8:
Accept: image/gif, image/x-xbitmap, image/jpeg, image/pjpeg, application/x-shockwave-flash, */*
The */* ended up matching application/rdf+xml instead of text/html, so only other browsers which are more explicit would actually get sent on to the user profile/notice stream; IE visitors were directed on to the FOAF download. :(
Swapping the order of items in the server-side of the negotiation list fixes this; clients actually asking for FOAF at a higher priority than HTML will still get it, but the wildcard */* now matches text/html which is usually what we want.
Content negotiation for the user links was added August 2008 in commit 48fcfb8b0d.
Add an array of arguments to isReadOnly() method of actions, to let
them change their results depending on what actions are called.
Primarily used by the 'api' action. Ideally in the future that will be
multiple actions. But this might still be useful.
Another gigantor PEAR coding standards patch. Here, I've moved the
opening curly bracket on a class statement to the following line.

Another huge change, for PEAR code standards compliance. Function
headers have to be in K&R style (opening brace on its own line),
instead of having the opening brace on the same line as the function
and parameters. So, a little perl magic found all the function
definitions and move the opening brace to the next line (properly
indented... usually).

Another global search-and-replace update. Here, I've replaced the PHP
keyword 'NULL' with its lowercase version. This is another PEAR code
standards change.

The PEAR coding standards decree: no tabs, but indent by four spaces.
I've done a global search-and-replace on all tabs, replacing them by
four spaces. This is a huge change, but it will go a long way to
getting us towards phpcs-compliance. And that means better code
readability, and that means more participation.

Weirdly, I got in an argument with Tim Berners-Lee in #swig about the
tag URIs I was using in FOAF documents. Eventually, I was convinced
that it's a better thing to use HTTP URLs instead. So, now we have
HTTP URLs.
The tricky thing was for users. Since they can change their names, we
can't use their profile URL, since it includes the name. Instead, I
made up a new action, which simply redirects from a user ID to their
current profile URL. This should be sufficiently long-term.
