Three big checkins for me today, all in 0.9.x.

  1. I changed all the things limited to 140 chars to be unlimited.
     This is message length, bio, group description, and (everyone's
     favorite) notice length. There's a site-wide default (set to 140
     by default) plus overrides for each of these items (and 0 means no
     limit). Pushing to SMS and Twitter currently depends on the
     consumers doing something sane with large data; probably a
     truncation is in order at some point.
  2. I added code to allow storing configuration options in the
     database. These are loaded after all the config files, so you can
     set up the db config and then load everything else from the DB.
     This is the first step to having an admin panel.
  3. I moved OpenID support to a plugin. This really fudged up Jeffrey
     To's configuration option to enable/disable OpenID (I needed to
     revert it), but I felt that a plugin was the better design. I
     haven't yet replicated the "OpenID-only" mode. I added a lot of
     hooks to support this pluginization; that means future plugins
     will be easier. I plan on pluginizing other functionality,
     including XMPP and SMS-by-email support.

I'm going to work on testing and documenting 0.8.1 this weekend for release next week.
