Because we don't want to auto-fetch items from a remote server. Such
items should be delivered as attachment metadata and portrayed in the
way the local instance chooses.
Choices for portrayal are either simply nullifying this and embedding
the data, linking the file remotely requiring a manual click or maybe
use remote oEmbed data etc. to download files locally so no remote
requests have to be made.
It's too farfetched to assume any text.com in a notice is an HTTP URL.
For example stuff like pasting from log entries, with domain.com:1234
where 1234 is a _PID_ or something, not a port number for http://...
There were problems with queries that were executed but didn't seem to
be committed. Trying to patch that up by calling a ROLLBACK on transactions
where the loading of the page isn't stopped after the BEGIN statement's
intended function fails (like with the rememberme cookie in this commit).
We should get another form of URL identifier for interpreting links on notices...
It was hard editing this line in vim even, because of wide, multibyte characters...
Bring common_path() back into harmony with common_local_url(),
which started doing this 2013-03-25.
Shouldn't need to spread "StatusNet::isHTTPS()" logic all over
wherever common_path() is called; just DTRT automatically instead.
No validation has been attempted yet. Lots of changes left. This
is visibly not (very) different from the previous CSS layout. But
some simplifications have been made.
Might cause issues with local changes to themes and CSS. Also maybe
javascript which depends on certain legacy microformats elements.
The move to microformats2 is motivated by the announcement that all
microformats should be migrated to version 2, as of 2014-06-20 at:

Also, tooltip text on time representation for humans has been improved.
Unfortunately no standardised representation (like "RFC850") had 4-digit years.
spl_autoload_register now calls the GNUsocial_class_autoload function
instead of us replacing the magic __autoload($cls). This means we can
queue up other autoload functions, such as the one now used for extlib
functions which exist directly in the 'extlib/' folder or have proper
namespacing (which our new Markdown class does).
At the same time we remove the "filecommand" setting, since we will
likely not have use of it thanks to PECL fileinfo.
Also the "supported" list for attachment mime types has changed
format, so we can keep track of at least some known file extensions.
Also removed the entirely unused saveGroups function.
Now avoiding multiGet and using listFind in Profile->getGroups()
so we don't have to deal with ArrayWrapper.
Nickname verifications on registration and updates for profiles (not yet
groups) have been improved.
Minor bugs in RegisterAction were also fixed, where multiple forms would
be outputed because the function did not return after showForm(). This
will be solved more permanently with throwing exceptions in the future.
We're also now using $config['image']['jpegquality'] to determine the
quality setting for resized images.
To set Avatar max size, adjust $config['avatar']['maxsize']
The getAvatar call now throws exceptions too. Related changes applied.
Now let's move Profile->avatarUrl to the Avatar class!
maxContent==0 implies that a notice text can be infinitely long, but
this value was directly transferred to maxNoticeLength, where 0 was
tested if it was longer than the notice length - which of course always
was false.
This commit fixes the problem for infinite length notices that always
got shortened.
I used this hacky sed-command (run it from your GNU Social root, or change the first grep's path to where it actually lies) to do a rough fix on all ::staticGet calls and rename them to ::getKV
sed -i -s -e '/DataObject::staticGet/I!s/::staticGet/::getKV/Ig' $(grep -R ::staticGet `pwd`/* | grep -v -e '^extlib' | grep -v DataObject:: |grep -v "function staticGet"|cut -d: -f1 |sort |uniq)
If you're applying this, remember to change the Managed_DataObject and Memcached_DataObject function definitions of staticGet to getKV!
This might of course take some getting used to, or modification fo StatusNet plugins, but the result is that all the static calls (to staticGet) are now properly made without breaking PHP Strict Standards. Standards are there to be followed (and they caused some very bad confusion when used with get_called_class)
Reasonably any plugin or code that tests for the definition of 'GNUSOCIAL' or similar will take this change into consideration.
