December 5, 2002

• Updated Patch Display Page ( htmlpage ) to show the creation date and time.
• Updated edev ( usergroup ) to show patch submission time.
• Implemented a patch by da-x - Updated Everything User Search ( superdoc ) to format Creation Time like you'd see in a writeup header.
• Implemented patch by mblase - Modified Read This ( nodelet ) to indent more and linebreak less.
• Moved mblase's Text Formatter ( patch ) to Patch - Text Formatter (mblase) ( codearchive ). The code had changed since the patch was submitted nearly a year prior.
• Removed patches for ekw Preferences ( superdoc ) by Error404 ( too old to be of any use )
• Standardized the linebreak usage in Epicenter ( nodelet ) and Everything Developer's nodeletselections, altered episection_ces ( htmlcode ) not to linebreak before the end
• Removed patches for ReadThis_coolwus, ReadThis_edcools, and ReadThis_news by mblase. They suggested to replace list items with line breaks. This would be less readable and waste vertical scrollspace.
• Removed a patch for Message Inbox by jetifi. The code submitted was a year old, things have changed considerably since.
• Moved reallycool nodelet and weblog ( patch ) by flamingweasel to patch - reallycool nodelet (flamingweasel) and patch - weblog (flamingweasel) ( codearchive ). It leaves out consideration for link formatting, and would make the colors conform to nodelet titles rather than the more standard oddrow colors.
• Removed Everything Quote Server ( patch ) by abiessu. Once again, too old, already fixed by someone else.

December 5, 2002

• Moved patches for Everything's Best Users and Node Heaven by flamingweasel to code archives. They were oto old to be of any use without descriptions of what they were to fix.
• Modified The Oracle to sort the VARS dump.
• Implemented Cow Of Doom's tfcool nodelet patch
• Ignored acorbic's ReadThis_coolwus ( patch ). Applies to something that's not used anymore.
• Moved bis' Message Inbox ( patch ) into a ( codearchive ). It was too old to do anything with without a description of what it's intentions were.
• Removed xunker's newwriteups ( patch ). The code it was to patch was replaced by newwriteups2.
• Removed mblase's ReadThis_coolwus ( patch ). The patchee is no longer in use.
• Moved Delta-Sys' displayWriteupInfo ( patch ) to a ( codearchive ). It was too old, the current code has changed to much to implement.

December 14, 2002

• Removed voteit (patch) by flamingweasel, displayWriteupInfo (patch) by recluse and ReadThis_coolwus (patch) by ascorbic. They were too old to do anything with.
• Applied EKW Scheme randomizer (patch) by ocelotbob, to keep EKW Scheme randomizer from blowing away the user's font settings.
• Implemented writeup maintainence create (patch) by ascorbic. It keeps empty writeups from being created.
• Removed two Everything Quote Server II patches by Teiresias. A third patch was implemented later that superceded them.
• Removed ascorbic's patch for Where You've Been. It appears to be for a nodelet that no longer is in use.
• Applied ascorbic's patch for Recent Nodes. It fixed some writeup parent issues and some sorting oversights
• Applied fuzzie's patch to addwriteup. Right. Guest user shouldn't be given told he/she can add a writeup to a locked e2node.
• Applied fuzzie's patch to displayUserInfo that gave a user a link to E2 Scratch Pad rather than Scratch Pad Viewer if they're on their own homenode
• Altered displayUserInfo's Administrative function area not to take up so much vertical homenode real estate
• Altered and Applied fuzzie's patch for Scratch Pad Viewer that adds a blab box.
• Altered and Applied ascorbic's patch to ReadThis_coolwus that adds a '(full)' link next to C!-ed writeups in the Read This nodelet
• Ignored delta-sys' patch for showchatter. It appears to patch a feature that's not totally in use anymore, due to incomplete code or incomplete removal on a decision not to use it.
• Altered EKW Scheme Randomizer to also randomize font and font sizes.

December 16, 2002

• Removed three patches by ascorbic that would've changed 'Editor Cool' to 'Endorsement' in coolit, Page of Cool, and ReadThis.
• Applied fuzzie's patch to writeup display page, changing the text at the top to "there is 1 more.." instead of "there are 1 more". Duplicated the change into ekw writeup display page and jukka writeup display page.
• Applied fuzzie's patch to usergroup display page that gives the user a link to message inbox with a count of the messages they have waiting from a group, similar to homenodes. Altered the code not to say "you have 1 messages" if there's only one message waiting.
• Applied call's patches to User settings and showmessages, allowing a user to see messager's last seen time in the chatterbox.
• Applied Tristan's patch to Noding Speedometer, making it take Honor Roll into account.
• Applied Omnidirectional Halo's patch to vitsection_nodeinfo, adding Using Unicode on E2 to the Vitals nodelet
• Applied mkb's patch to User Settings that fixed an encoding glitch under the personal nodelet editor.
• Moved in10se's patch to Jukka Container to codearchive patch - Jukka Container (in10se), removed author, generated, and copyright META tags from Jukka Container
• Applied a patch by ascorbic to Voting Oracle to show a user what percentage of their votes were upvotes
  
  Update - I was later informed that this patch was to be ignored. I apoligize for any troubles it may have caused.

• Applied yerricde's patch to ekw writeup display page that added a missing parenthesis. Duplicated his efforts into Jukka writeup display page and writeup display page.

December 30, 2002

• Modified simplenewsify (htmlcode) to give a 'hide' link next to the 'view' link. This will hide the specified weblogify! link from display in Epicenter. Stores this value in %$VARS.
• Created Unhideify! (superdoc) to allow users to unhide weblogify!s. Todo -- move this into User Preferences, alongside nodelet selections or personal nodelet modification?
• Modified Epicenter (nodelet) to show a link to Unhideify! if the user has any weblogify!s hidden.
