Version 0.5.3 released, called "No really?"

For those of you used to toying with the nightly build, there's nothing really new there.

For the others, here is what this version, which is an intermediate release, brings to the table:

- Fixed various issues, including:

Do not update a topic read count needlessly.

- Removed stupid "web 2.0" effect when submitting a mesage.

- Fixed some php 'strict' issues in dbdriver

- New experimental 'select' method in dbdriver

- Introduced concept of new accounts needing super mod validation before they can participate:

post, change reputations, post high scores...

- validation is done from members list

- Upgraded rich text editor to latest version of FCKeditor

- Fixed non-validating list page

- Partial code for visual portal creation - not ready yet. Not even experimental.

- "Drop-ins"!

- First drop-in: addsignature.php

- Calendar now with custom events.

- Guests can be prevented from chatting.

- Fixed a bug with mass moderation

- Added 'pms waiting' notification box

- Moved to jQuery\nMade RSS compatible with external widgets

- Users can now download their private messages.

- New syndication now supports every version of RSS + Atom feeds

- Added first pieces of a real-time notification framework.

Testers: even though, as usual, the upgrade process was tested and regression testing was conducted, please install this version as soon as possible and check that we did not introduce new issues.
