* Disburdened constructor methods of most of the prototypes by moving most of the code to the new static add() method.
* Added temporary debugging method HopObject.confirmConstructor() to log a warning whenever a constructor is directly called – in which case it should be checked if the static add() method is to be preferred.
* Removed obsolete code in Poll.edit_action() method.
* Removed numbered, footnote-like links in most of the noficitaion messages
* Added prefix to subjects of notification mails (like “[Antville] ...”) for convenience
* Added markgettext() calls for most of the prototype names and their plural forms – this time in each corresponding prototype file, though
* Added options argument to global sendMail() method, currently only to switch inclusion of generic footer in mail body
* Fix bug in Membership.contact_action() method when an unknown (i.e. unregistered or unsubscribed) user tries to send a message via contact form
* Unified naming of notify skins (e.g. #notify_delete instead of #notify_deletion)
* Updated and rebuilt i18n and message files
* Renamed PollMgr to Polls
* Removed graph.skin from Choice prototype
* Improved Choice skins by replacing param with choice handlers
* Unified output of Choice totals in choice.votes_macro
* Moved creation of new choices to client-side JavaScript
* Added labels for radiobuttons
* Added HopObject.radiobutton_macro
* Cache / reset status of story when rotating
* Fixed issue caused by setting a Metadata property to a Java value, e.g. java.net.URL instance becomes string without quotes. (Could this be a Rhino bug?)
* Finalized conversion of AV_USER table to simple naming scheme ("user")
* Added global getTitle() method which returns either site.title or root.sys_title
* Implemented universal HopObject.value() method
* Rededicated User.update() method since its previous functionality is now taken over by User.value()
* Restructured login and register functionalities in User and MemberMgr
* Replaced first occurrences of Exception with Error
* Introduced i18n via gettext in User and MemberMgr
* Removed getMessage() and Message in User and MemberMgr
* Added first possible implementation of global getPermission() method
* Modified code of global evalEmail() and evalURL() methods to work with Helma modules
* Simplified global sendMail() method by not throwing any MailException anymore and returning the status code only
* sendMail() now is using helma.Mail (so we can debug message output)
