-* (bug 7946) importTextFile.php doesn't perform pre-save transform
-* (bug 8117) {{REVISIONTIMESTAMP}} showed weird default if $wgLocalTZoffset set;

- chunk instead of pointing to the last title of current chunk.
-* (bug 4673) Special:AllPages : add a 'previous' link (new message 'prevpage')
-* (bug 8121) wfRandom() was not between 0 and 1
-* Add static method Parser::createAssocArgs($args), so parser functions can
- use the same code to parse arguments as the templates do.
-* Change behavior of logins using the temporary e-mailed password (as stored
- in user_newpassword hash field). Instead of just logging in silently and
- leaving the previous user_password field in place indefinitely, the user
- is now prompted to set a new password.
-
- The password-changing form is at Special:Resetpass; currently it's only
- usable for changing from the temporary password during login, but it
- could perhaps be generalized, replacing the subform in preferences.
-
- Once the new password is set successfully, the temporary password is wiped
- so it cannot be used to login a second time, and the login process
- is completed.
-* Suppress 'mail new password' button on login form if $wgAuth forbids
- changing user passwords; it wouldn't work very well...
-* Consolidate password length checks and $wgAuth manipulation into
- User::setPassword() to avoid duplicate code in different places
- that set passwords.
-* User::setPassword() now throws PasswordError exceptions if the password
- is illegal or cannot be set via $wgAuth. These can be caught and a human-
- readable error message displayed by UI code.
-* Added Title::isSubpage()
-* (bug 8241) Don't consider user pages of User:Foo.css to be CSS subpages
-* Set an explicit class on framed thumbnail inner divs and images, changed some
- CSS to use these instead of using descendent selectors.
-* Accept null parameter to User::setPassword() as indicating the password
- field should be cleared to an unusable state. Login will only be possible
- after the password is reset, for instance by e-mail.
-* (bug 6394) Invalidate the password set for "by e-mail" account creations
- to avoid accidental empty password creations.
-* Made the show change size function work on page moves, page creations, and
- log entries. Also fixed it in the javascript recentchanges.
-* (bug 8239) correctly get 50 new contributions when clicking '(50 next)'
-* (bug 2259) Fix old regression where e-mail addresses were no longer
- confirmed on login with mailed password.
-* Add a notification about the confirmation mail sent during account
- creation, so people don't immediately go off to request a second one.
-* Add a warning on Special:Confirmemail if a code was already sent and has
- not yet expired.
-* Add user_editcount field to provide data for heuristics on account use.
- Incremented on edit, with lazy initialization from past revision data.
- Can batch-initialize with maintenance/initEditCount.php (not yet friendly
- to replication environments, this will do all accounts in one query).
-* Allow raw SQL subsections in Database::update() SET portion as well as
- for WHERE portion. Handy for increments and such.
-* User::getOption now accept a default value to override default user values
- this makes it consistent with WebRequest::get* methods. Corrected code in
- various places accordingly.
-* (bug 8264) Fix JavaScript global vars for XHTML mode
-* Make $wgSiteNotice value wikitext again, for consistency with editable
- MediaWiki:Sitenotice and MediaWiki:Anonnotice.
-* (bug 8044) When redirecting from the canonical name of the special page
- to the localised one, parameters/subpages are omitted
-* (bug 8164) Special:Booksources should use GET for form submission
-* Rewrite Special:Booksources to clean up interface and remove redundant code
-* (bug 7925) Change Special:Allmessages message name filter javascript to be
- a bit more responsive and easier on the CPU
-* (bug 4488) Support watching pages on deletion; introduces new user preference
-* Minor restructuring of Special:Preferences; "watch pages I edit" and "watch
- pages I create" options now accessible under "Watchlist" options
-* (bug 8153) <nowiki> doesn't work in site notice
-* (bug 6690) wfMsgNoTrans() transforms messages
-* (bug 8274) Wrap edit tools in a <div> with a specified class
-* Detect PHP 5.0.x 64-bit bug and abort in WebStart.php; too many things break
- mysteriously otherwise (detection code copied from install-utils.inc)
-* (bug 8295) Change handling of <center> tags in doBlockLevels() to match that
- of <div>
-* (bug 8110) Make magic ISBN linking stricter: only match ten-digit sequences
- (plus optional ISBN-13 prefix) with no immediately following alphanumeric
- character, disallow multiple consecutive internal redirects
-* (bug 2785) Accept optional colon prefix in links when formatting comments
-* Don't show "you can view and copy the source of this page" message for
- pages which don't exist
-* (bug 8310) Blank line added to top of 'post' when page is blank
-* (bug 8109) Template parameters ignored in "recentchangestext"
-* Gracefully skip redirect-to-fragment on WebKit versions less than 420;
- it messes up on current versions of Safari but is ok in the latest
- nightlies. Checking the version number will allow it to automatically
- work when new releases of Safari appear.
-* Fix regression in thumb styles; size and padding didn't match with
- new arrangement.
-* (bug 8333) Fix quick user data update on login password change on
- replication database setups. User data is now pulled from master
- instead of slave in User::loadFromDatabase, ensuring that it is
- fresh and accurate when read and then saved back into cache.
- This was breaking with the Special:Rename operation which
- automatically logs the user in with the new password after changing
- it; pulling from slave meant the record was often not the updated
- one.
-* (bug 8335) Set image width to the first valid parameter found.
-* (bug 8350) Fix watchlist viewing bug when using Postgres.
-* (bug 6603) When warning about invalid file extensions, output the bit
- of the extension we actually checked
-* (bug 7669) Drop defaults on BLOB/TEXT columns for better compatibility
- with MySQL's strict mode, often enabled by the Windows installer.
- The defaults are ignored anyway when strict mode is off...
-* (bug 7685) Use explicit values for ar_text and ar_flags when deleting,
- for better compatibility with MySQL's strict mode
-* Update default interwiki values to reflect changed location of ursine:
-* (bug 5411) Remove autopatrol preference
-* Users who have the "autopatrol" permission will have their edits marked as
- patrolled automatically
-* Users who do not have the "autopatrol" permission will no longer be able
- to mark their own edits as patrolled
-* Introduce 'PingLimiter' hook; see docs/hooks.txt for more information
-* (bug 532) Tweaked alt text for some interface messages
-* (bug 8231) Gave useful alt text to the main <img> on image pages
-* (bug 371) Remove alt text for "Enlarge" icon on thumbnails
-* Initialize user_editcount to 0 instead of NULL for newly created accounts
-* (bug 3696) Strip LRM and RLM characters from titles to work around the
- problem some people have where titles cut-and-pasted from lists include
- the bidi override characters appended to the lists.
- A more thorough blacklist for forbidden and translatable characters would
- be wise, though, as might a cleaner method for the lists in the first place.
-* Fix regression in email password resets on read-restricted sites
-* Set tabindex on fields in deletion form so you don't have to tab through
- the links in the sitenotice
-* (bug 8271) Show full time and date on viewer for individual deleted
- revisions
-* (bug 8214) Output file size limit and actual file size in appropriate units
- on Special:Upload

- option to prevent this when running maintenance/update.php
-* (bug 7612) Remove superfluous link to Special:Categories from result items
- on Special:Mostcategories
-* {{PLURAL:}} now handles formatted numbers correctly
-* (bug 8331) Added the change size value to watchlists; therefore made
- watchlists use RecentChange::newFromRow() instead of newFromCurRow()
-* (bug 8351) Fix undo for simple reverts
-* (bug 6856) User::clearNotification() does not respect read-only mode
-* (bug 6853) Use a checkbox on the installer form to indicate that a superuser
- account should be used; this is clearer than the old check which relied on
- the password never being an obscure value
-* Remove old unused watchlist cache, which was a leftover from the old schema
- where watchlists were more expensive to generate
-* Minor cosmetic changes to Special:Userrights
-* Added wgCanonicalSpecialPageName to JavaScript variables

-* Output software version number in maintenance/parserTests.php
-* (bug 7169) Use Ajax to watch/unwatch articles if enabled
-* Make variant table caching a little more robust, using main language code
- in cache key. Probably this is still a bit wonky, though. Was breaking
- parser tests when Chinese tables were getting loaded into Serbian code.
-* (bug 8380) Be nicer about blank lines in deleteBatch.php
-* (bug 8401) Fix regression in SORBS lookup for some DNS setups
-* Use raw file descriptor in posix_isatty() check to avoid warning on
- Linux systems with at least some versions of PHP

- next to the user name and ID.

- template list. Patch by Fyren, with i18n naming tweak.
-* Fix for interwiki transclusion where target wiki uses query string for title
-* Resolve namespaces on interwiki Title objects using canonical namespace names
- if possible (should not happen, though, outside interwiki transclusion... and
- maybe not even then, but it does)
-* (bug 8447) Fix SQL typo breaking non-default $wgHitcounterUpdateFreq
-* Do not allow previews of deleted images to be cached
-* Add global variable $wgDefaultLanguageVariant used to set the default language
- variant of a wiki to something different than the main language code
-* Add 'variant' option to parserTests - runs test with the given variant as
- preferred, utilize it for more parser tests of language variants code

+* New script maintenance/language/checkExtensioni18n.php used to check i18n
+ progress in the extension repository.
+* Running maintenance/parserTests.php with '--record' option, will now automaticly
+ tries to create its database tables.
+* Made the PLURAL: parser function return singular on -1 per default.
+* Fixed up the AjaxSearch
+* (bugs 5051, 5376) Tooltips and accesskeys no longer require JavaScript
+* Added SkinTemplateOutputPageBeforeExec hook before SkinTemplate::outputPage()
+ starts page output (http://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wikitech-l/2007-January/028554.html)
+* Fix SpecialVersion->formatCredits input. Version and Url parameters should be null
+ to be treated properly with isset.
+* Branch page_restrictions column out into its own table, also creating a "cascading protection"
+ feature, which automagically disallows edits to pages transcluded into a page protected with
+ this new option. Various other code tidiness fixes and refactoring in the log messages of
+ branches/werdna/restrictions-separation.
+* The minimum permissions needed to edit a page in each namespace can
+ now be customized via the $wgNamespaceProtection array. By default,
+ editing pages in the MediaWiki namespace requires "editinterface"
+ permissions, just as before.
+* (bug 8567) Added hook RawPageViewBeforeOutput just before the text is blown out in action=raw,
+ so extensions might influence the output.
+* Correct tooltip accesskey hint for Opera on the Macintosh (it uses Shift-Esc-, not Ctrl-).

+ diffonly=1 or diffonly=0 to the URL of the diff page
