Saturday Blues

Pe-hew!
Many, many bugs fixed that have gone unnoticed till now. The code base has shrunk over time, but I suppose its the magnitude of the effort going on here that allows for things to still go wrong in certain scenarios.
Time also sinks into small, yet big hurdles like sane latin/unicode conversion to utf-8. All the encoding and converting can drain what feels like a near bottomless pit of man-hours.
Currently left on the table: private testing before going live on a staging server (as opposed to my home box), figuring out why HTTP_REDIRECT is missing as usable variable in PHP and a few others.
I can't wait to start on 2.1!
update: Moved forward to find myself taking a few steps back while at it discovering a few more minor bugs. Where do these pesky buggers come from?-) I noticed I've worked the past three days hard as today I couldn't remember if I'd had dinner.
