views 6.x-2.0-rc1

1. There are a couple of bugs in Drupal 6.2 that are fixed in Drupal 6.x-dev that make it very important that Drupal 6.3 is used (or, since that is not currently available, Drupal 6.x-dev).
2. If you find yourself having troubles with the javascript (there are a few people who report problems that we can't figure out yet) the javascript part can be completely turned off and the UI largely works without javascript, though a couple of places (arguments, in particular) may be a little rough.
3. The upgrade path from 1 to 2 is going to take some manual work to convert your Views to the new format. Views2 contains a Views1 conversion tool, but existing views will likely need some additional work to function in Views2
4. Urgent request! We need some help with the documentation, both editing the existing pages, finishing some of the TODO items, and fleshing it out more so that it is more cohesive!

Changes since DRUPAL-6--2-0-BETA4:

• Fix some minor code formatting issues.
• * Updated translation file
  * Updated German translation
• #270588: Have summaries respect the DISTINCT flag when doing their counting
• Capture queries run during view render, with an optional checkbox to turn this off.
• Allow query to wrap in live preview
• #249934: If a view had attachments, views_get_current_view() could return wrong results.
• Fix a problem with relationships that caused the adjust_join to sometimes not be run, thanks to a minor error in the join collapsing code.
• query::add_relationship was adjusting the join for the relationship prematurely; add_table will do that on its own.
• string argument handler was not running summary_name through transform
• Exposed filters needed to use $form_state[input] not $form[#post], which was causing the "remember" setting to fail intermittently; also, if filters are not overridden use the default display ID for session storage so that remembered filters can be shared across displays.
• Exposed filter memory was being trashed by a rewriting validate; also, exposed filters that decided not to participate weren't properly storing that status in session. This fixes both things.
• #270892 by aclight (expanded by me): put default action and validator options in a fieldset to make the form less confusing.
• #273075 by eojthebrave: Fix broken queries to delete Views 1 views from the database.
• Remove accidentally commited debug message
• #270920 by mooffie: Add checkbox to feed displays to allow use of the site name for the feed title, in order to better duplicate the basic Drupal rss.xml capability.
• #271019 by mooffie: Add a button to clear the theme registry on the theme: information page
• #270861: Don't automatically add order by clauses to the group by if the order by is a formula.
• #270588: Take two
• #270313: Add validation to the view name on import (only if user entered)
• Remove incorrect phpdoc
• #267457: Fixed. For real.
• Restore some code that made sure that style options followed style changes.
• Fix typo in argument DISTINCT fix
• #270588: Remove extra ! from comparison
• #274355 by mooffie: Fix a caching problem with rescan template files button
• #274341 by mooffie: Check for the presence of template files so that we can tell if a template got renamed but theme registry was not cleared.
• #273570 by aclight: Properly allow attached displays to inherit exposed filters via UI option.
• #274482 by aclight: Remove unnamed Apply button from filter values so that it does not later appear in URLs.
• Change the update button to "update default display" when you are changing values on the default display.
• #274926 by aclight: Typo fixes in comments and t() strings.
• #274807: setting the validate fail action to summary was not informing the UI that a style plugin is needed.
• Fix argument validator so that access() is handled properly like it is on the default argument type.
• #273570: Work around a FAPI limitation that only lets me validate a given form once even though I need to validate it an arbitrary number of times.
• #270735 by hass: Remove extra t() from menu item in views_export module
• #271240 by mschiff: pgsql compatibility, left() doesn't exist but substr() exists in both pgsql and mysql.
• #273500 by emok: Ensure a ; after endforeach in theme templates.
• Create a "soft" fail condition for arguments, which means that if an argument is part of a % placeholder in a URL, failing validation is not actually a failure IF there is some other action to take when validation fails.
• #274360: Add hard path checking to Node from URL and User from URL to get instances where core menu loader functions are not in use.
• API documentation update.
• #270416 by quicksketch: Update convert.inc for new display IDs.
• Unnecessary label on exposed search form; missing "Group" designation on upload: attached files; some minimal but useful documentation on writing handlers
• Allow "additional themes" for plugins to be listed in the theme information as alternatives.
• Do not add the search table if not actually searching.
• #276714: Remove extraneous "break" that causes error when adding broken fields.
• Allow items to specify base tables to skip and create a relationship from upload --> node that will not allow circular relationships.
• #276939 by mooffie: Typo prevented comments: cid relationship from functioning.
• theme-css.html plus a couple of minor fixes I found
• #277508 by webchick
• #277382 by mooffie: Remove unintuitive "ID" from relationship naming.
• #277807 by alevine: Restore missing "moderate" flag to node.views.inc
• #275372: Cancel button should redirect back to admin/build/views when canceling a new view.
• Move the save/cancel buttons from the edit view back to the left where they used to be to prevent visual confusion with those buttons and the ajax form buttons.
• #275153: taxonomy term depth filter should find nodes based on vid, not nid.
• Very very slightly cleaner export.
• Minor documentation update.
