Hi Jan,

Thanks for all. Good way to work on the project now, with all the smaller 
tasks. A client has finally agreed on the setup of a new part of their site, 
which ties my hands this week at least. So I will not have much time this week 
to get some work done. I will keep my eye on the dev-list though.

Bye, Bert

Hey Bert,

I've committed all the changes now. I've also logged all the things that
remain to be solved before this can be released ... if I have forgotten
anything, feel free to add another subtask. I'll keep the parent issue
open until all subtasks are solved. Please let me know which of the
tasks you feel comfortable with solving and which ones you find too
difficult so we can divide the work. Hopefully we get get this done more
quickly then the original patch as it will affect much smaller chunks of
the code.

Thanks,
Jan
