Discuss Version 0.30 DevTrack

Editing version 4 of page Discuss_Version_0.30_DevTrack (the most recent revision is 16)

Note: This page is defined as a special page, and as such its final state may be different from what you see here.

One thing I've changed is in **DoMaintPurgeOldRevs()**. Previously we relied on //stat// to get the file modification time, and use that to determine when to remove the old revision based on **$PurgeArchives**. However, along the way it was changed to check the internal `ts` variable instead. This is all well and good, however, it presents a unique problem. If you have a page that has been unmodified for a year, and a spammer comes along and spams it, assuming your **$PurgeArchives** was set to 2 weeks, the last good copy of the page will be purged immediately, leaving only the spammed version. By checking the file modification time instead, it will guarantee that you have a previously known good copy for at least **$PurgeArchives** time, regardless of how old that good copy was.

Link behavior was changed in the **Markup()** sub. Now if you create a link to a page that does not exist, the name is displayed surrounded by brackets, and there is a question mark after the name, which links to the edit command for that page (i.e. `?do=edit;page=PageName`). The title element says "Create page PageName".

Categories can be implemented in a rudimentary way. The way I've done it on this site so far is to put the word "Category", followed by the category name, at the bottom of each page in that category (for example, "CategoryTest"). If you then search for "CategoryTest", you will see every page with that tag on it.\\\\While it's not perfect, it's something that's available. Ultimately I'd like to make it better than this, similar to MediaWiki.
