[pLog-svn] r4430 - in plog/trunk: class/data/validator class/template locale templates/admin

[Oscar Renalias]

Unless anybody is willing to write some more code or we come up with  
a groundbreaking feature that we must have in LT 1.2, this is the  
last new code that I am planning to implement. We're quite far from  
our planned roadmap (http://wiki.lifetype.net/index.php/Roadmap) but  
seeing how slowly we're implementing stuff, I'd rather release a  
little in early 2007 than a lot in 2008 :-)

There's still a lot to test and polish in LT 1.2 so if anybody is  
willing to help, this is a very rough list of what needs to be done:

- Implement permissions in xmlrpc.ph and in the atom plugin
- Port all plugins to the new setting infrastructure, or least the  
5-10 most popular ones.
- Select 5-10 popular templates and update them to make sure they  
work with paged comments and the new common commentform.template.
- See how the new implementation for the storage of resources works  
and whether wizard.php is able to upgrade everything flawlessly.
- Tidy up core code, but I guess I'm the one who can work on this  
better and faster.
- Some other issues that will pop up during this phase

Let me know if, when and how you could help. If you can help, of  
course :-)
