Hello to the core development team

I am new with Drupal, so i don't know how everything works and what are the habbits when an upgrade is provide.
I just upgrade the CVS version from 4.52. I can't make the module forms working because the function check_query() is no more supported.
Is there a backward compatibility when the core upgrade ?
What are the new functions modified in this CVS which need a module upgrade ? (Is there a doc ?)
What is the new function for check_query() ?

thank you for all your work and for a reply

Per the RC1 documentation on the front page of the site, module developers should look at the following URL to upgrade their code to the latest APIs, etc., etc.. http://drupal.org/node/12347

1.) Go to front page of Drupal.org.
2.) Click on giant "Drupal 4.6.0 release candidate" link
3.) Read text reached by clicking giant "Drupal 4.6.0 release candidate" link.

Sorry to be a bit sticky, i followed your advice and i went to the http://drupal.org/drupal-4.6.0-rc page that i red it. From the begenning to the end (with all the post) i could see many information, but not any link like http://drupal.org/node/12347

How did you found it ?

Developers should be aware that custom themes and modules for Drupal 4.5 need to be updated to work with Drupal 4.6.0. If you maintain a theme or module in Drupal's contributions repository, or if you want to contribute to Drupal development, this is the time to update themes and modules. A list of changes since Drupal 4.5 can be found in the Module developer's guide and Theme developer's guide. Also note that the DRUPAL-4-6 CVS branch has been created in the contributions repository.

Which links you to: http://drupal.org/node/508.
And then "Updating your modules": http://drupal.org/node/13223
And then "4.5 Modules to Head": http://drupal.org/node/12347

While Morbus is totally right, that's how you find it. But to honestly answer your question, regarding how I find it -- I have http://drupal.org/node/17669 bookmarked, 'cos it is authored by me, the functionality described there is my brainchild :)

IMO you should not have made a sub-page for that. I integrated your text in the main page and deleted the sub-page. You can now find the query related information at http://drupal.org/node/12347.
