==================
MAJOR IMPROVEMENTS
==================
Backup restore function is back -- It is now possible again to restore
old backups by entering the originally exported backup data into the
restore function from the maintenance page.
===
Performance improvement -- several libraries have been improved to
optimize the database access and speed up paginated display of large
lists of publications.
===
Internationalisation -- Aigaion now officialy has multi-language
support. Four languages are immediately available in this release,
thanks to the hard work of Manuel Strehl, and the translators mentioned
on the translation wiki: Norwegian, German, English and Dutch.
==================
MINOR IMPROVEMENTS
==================
Keyword clouds -- Topic and author pages now show keyword clouds, with different
font sizes for the keywords depending on how important they are in the
publications under a certain topic or for a certain author.
===
BibTeX to UTF8 conversion -- We have extended and improved the
BibTeX2UTF8 conversions (and the other way around). In addition, we have
written a set of testing functions to spot recurring bugs easier.
This was supported by heavy testing from Peter Mosses.
===
Import: better feedback and input checking -- The input data entered in
the import screen is tested more thoroughly for certain problems, and if
the import fails, a better feedback message is given.
===
TinyMCE editor for editing notes -- It is now possible to edit notes
using the great editor TinyMCE, which allows a WYSIWYG basic formatting
interface. To enable it, check the box in the configuration screen.
===
IE display cleanup -- Many display issues in Internet Explorer were fixed
===
Documentation -- We have extended the in-code documentation and the
documentation on the Wiki pages
===
New CodeIgniter version -- Thanks to the help of Dennis Allerkamp,
Aigaion now runs on CodeIgniter version 1.7
