Ah, you knew this was coming... Smile

As promised, I worked in FUDforum 2 tonight. Most of tonight was spent trying to wrap my head around the new way of doing things.

I managed to squash a bug, though: gender would default to female if it was set to "unspecified".

I tinkered with the MIME types (and added a few) in def_mime.sql. I based my corrections on the official Apache mime.types that I have on my server.

Everything else is grammar/spelling/consistency fixes.

Now for the bugs I identified, but didn't fix (either due to time or incomprehension on how the code is structured):
compact.php spits out an error (line 133, IIRC) if you try to compact an empty forum (such as one that is freshly installed). I had a patch for it, but I was unclear on some of the process and so I left it out. It was a broken patch anyway.

I guess this isn't really a bug, but it can lead to a problem. I think the install script should force the user to put an email address into NOTIFY_FROM. I say this because:

  1. the admin might not know they need to set this value, and
  2. it's used for registration purposes.

A blank "From:" isn't very friendly. Sad

Lastly, I promise I actually installed this patch and played with it before I uploaded it here. I've been sloppy the past few nights and I apologize.
