I've checked in a few quick tweaks to cvs, just fyi:
I thought there was meant to be a feature freeze on. I've got major changes pending to SpecialRecenchanges and SpecialRecentchangeslinked, so don't go changing them. I've also got minor (i.e. easily merged) changes pending to GlobalFunctions and Language.php.
The changes to SpecialRecentchanges don't look big to the user: now you can hide minor edits without going to the user preferences (that's really a bug fix more than anything), and you can hide edits by logged in users. But the increased complexity incited me to revamp the code somewhat.

There was supposed to be a feature freeze for Lee to upgrade everything last weekend. I'm not sure what happened there, I assume Lee is swamped with real life like the rest of us. :)
But anyway, these are bug fixes, not features. The search code changes (to fix problems with our existing boolean search) is still disabled by default, there are no code changes yet for image tables, and the limit/offset consolidation helps protect against possible sql/xss insertion attacks with better validation (forcing the values to integers before dumping them into SQL queries or HTML output).

Looking forward to it...

That's a pretty fair assumption. I _really_ want to get at least the English wiki in sync with CVS before we start doing major surgery, and preferably more of them.
