Well, the account creation API is still pending. If I'm lucky it'll be merged by the 1.21 release. :P I also have a change pending that redoes the password recovery system so that it uses tokens rather than temporary passwords.
Other than that, I'm still working on a centralized authentication/authorization system, but I don't think it'll be ready for this release (hopefully it can get in the next release alongside the password hashing rewrite). *--* *Tyler Romeo* Stevens Institute of Technology, Class of 2015 Major in Computer Science www.whizkidztech.com | tylerro...@gmail.com On Wed, Jan 9, 2013 at 2:03 PM, Mark A.
