Release #51

[marta]

New Features:

• Added optional location identification when creating a new entry or editing an old one. The user can push the “detect” button and it will automatically fill in general location based on IP. For more detailed location Google Gears, Wi2Geo, or a Wi-Fi connection is required.
• Paid users can now create a nickname or "Note" which only they will see when viewing the "lj user" tag or when viewing the other user's profile.
• Pingbacks will now be enabled for Basic and Plus accounts. Pingbacks are currently only available for use for LiveJournal entries and links; external pingbacks have been disabled until they're able to be used correctly (we're waiting for other pingback-enabled sites to upgrade to the newest version).

Bug fixes:

• Cyrillic MSN interstitial disabled for Opera users
• Improved performance of admin/schools/pending.bml so that it should no longer time out when called with arguments (LJSV-653)
• Made all content on create.bml https instead of mixed secure/insecure content
• Fixed bug that prevents some users from accessing their message center inbox (LJSV-351)
• Fixed bug that incorrectly routes http requests with a trailing period after livejournal.com
• Updated http://www.livejournal.com/bots to point to the current atom stream at http://atom.services.livejournal.com/atom-stream.xml
• Corrected typo on sponsor.bml page (LJSV-632)
• Made change to handling of javascript/html cleaner

Enhancements:

• Embedded videos now show up correctly when viewing entries in a moderated community queue (LJSV-363)
• A community maintainer can now see if an entry is marked explicit while it is still in the moderation queue (LJSV-617)
• Changed the MSN icon and alt-text in user's profile
• Video placeholders now have an alt tag for accessibility
