Under MySQL, new tables will be created as InnoDB with UTF-8 (utf8/utf8_bin) same as core tables.
Existing plugin tables will have table engine and default charset/collation updated, and string columns will have charset updated, at checkschema time.
Switched from 'DESCRIBE' to INFORMATION_SCHEMA for pulling column information in order to get charset. A second hit to INFORMATION_SCHEMA is also needed to get table properties.
Indices were only being created at table creation time, which ain't so hot. Now also adding/dropping indices when they change.
Fixed up some schema defs in OStatus plugin that were a bit flaky, causing extra alter tables to be run.
TODO: Generalize this infrastructure a bit more up to base schema & pg schema classes.
* renamed FeedSub plugin to OStatus
* now setting avatar on subscriptions
* general fixes for subscription
* integrated PuSH hub to handle only user timelines on canonical ID url; sends updates directly
* set $config['feedsub']['nohub'] = true to test w/ foreign feeds that don't have hubs (won't actually receive updates though)
* a few bits of code documentation
* HMAC support for verified distributions (safest if sub setup is on HTTPS)
And a couple core changes:
* minimizing HTML output for exceptions in API requests to aid in debugging
* fix for rel=self link in apitimelineuser when id given
This does not not yet include any of the individual subscription management (Salmon notifications for sub/unsub, etc) nor a nice UI for user subscriptions.
Needs some further cleanup to treat posts as status updates instead of link references.
