Hi Everyone!

Another quick update that I've just released version 7.01, another big step
in our upgrade process. This one is primarily focused on the new membership
system I've been wanting to build. Very happy with how it all turned out.
It makes major progress toward protecting data (security) and boosting
performance for large memberships (scalability). It also allow for easy
hooks to integrate with a database or crm for managing your member data. It
also uses an email based login system (with a numeric assigned id), rather
than asking members to choose their own id, which is important for
supporting transactional emails, etc.

It does mean, this system is not compatible with prior versions (even
7.00). To use with existing sites, be sure to enable the new
simplelogin plugin, which restores prior behavior. I'll try to do an
upgrade script at some point.

There have been no bug reports yet, so I'm starting to feel more
comfortable with this 7.xx series, but I'd still consider it somewhat
experimental until we finish up this current round of upgrades. Still to
do: the Site Checklist page, a Site Members section for managing member
data, and a plugin for email double optins and another for password
reminders.

Incidentally, I've applied this new account registration system to the
BoltWire site and set up a separate newsletter subscription process, so if
you are interested in testing either out, please do. I'd be grateful for
any feedback on ways to fine tune or tweak how things work.

Not quite finished yet, but it's coming along. A couple more releases, and
we'll be fully switched over!

Cheers,
Dan
