Important Upgrade Topics
You may check whether these fixes work correctly in your environment.

===Request #1914552===
This is important additional patch for Multi-byte languages like CJK (Chinese, Japanese and Korean). The installer tried to create database with default-character-set specified by my.cnf, so that may causes garbled display in CJK. This patch is patch to solve the issue for Japanese submitted by Japanese contributors. But, that's also sample for other multi-byte languages. Your mother language may solve garbled display by the following rule:

1. Makes /html/install/language/{lang}/createdatabase_mysql.php.
2. Write code there. The following is sample in Japanese:


<?php
$result = $this->db->query("CREATE DATABASE ".XOOPS_DB_NAME." DEFAULT CHARACTER SET ujis");
if ($result == false) {
$result = $this->db->query("CREATE DATABASE ".XOOPS_DB_NAME);
}
?>


This tries to create database with 'ujis', not 'latin1'. You may try to copy this file to your language directory and replace 'ujis' with your language code to work XCL correctly.

===Fix Bug #1779754===
It was impossible to post comments correctly in the modules having "extraParams". This fix has to be confirmed with various modules.

===Fix Bug #1912990===
XBecause XCL didn't run correctly on some environments, XCL stooped using PHP_SELF and began using REQUEST_URI instead of it. We have to confirm that any troubles don't occur on existing environments. Is your environment green?

===Fix Bug #1729813===
(This is Japanese XoopsMultiMailerLocal)
This is old fix, but RC got an additional patch around this. These patches might fix NOTICE and send a mail correctly.

===Fix Bug #1833146===
In Theme Manifesto, you could use "licence" item, but that was TYPO. License is right. By that, XCube_Theme loads both of 'license' and 'licence' to member property $mLicense and $mLicence. But, XCube_Theme::mLicence is deprected member property. If you write a new manifesto in your theme since now, write 'license' not 'licence'.

===Fix Bug #1738936===
Validator of XOOPS Cube is non-conforming RFC for circumstance in some countries, but it has to accept the mail addresses that is RFC compliant. Anyway XCube_EmailValidator was fixed by this policy. We hope that programers checks the regex-expression of XCibe_EmailValidator::isValid().


Needs confirming

===Bug #1709886===
This bug was fixed at old versions, but nobody has not confirmed this. To close this item, we hope that someone checks whether you can login through SSL with extra program, even if you don't use old extra program for SSL login.

===Bug #1801317===
Disconnected after I change the "Search Options" ... This bug's Resolution is "Works For Me". We need more informations to decide whether this bug was fixed by previous versions. If you know some issues or some possibility about this issue, tell us, please.
