It’s that time of year again. In order to fund some of the developers travel to the Geek Moot 2010, we’re going to require a bit of supplemental income. We’re looking to fund 3 developers coming over from North America as well as the remainder of the deposit for the event space. As with the last 2 years, we’re going to open up for help from the community. The goal this year is bigger than last year, but I’m hopeful that we can pull it off.

This release is mainly to fix the issues that people with older sites had with the removal of the use_hierarchy option in config.php. To make sure that people don't mess up their SEO after an upgrade, we've put the option back in.

We've also done a few bug fixes, including a fix to the cms_stylesheet plugin, a bug in Menu Manager, and a few other things that should've been fixed awhile ago.

This release fixes an important security vulnerability, we recommend that ALL users upgrade as soon as possible.

The local inclusion vulnerability fixed is old and affects many previous versions of CMSMS. Therefore it is important for ALL installations to be upgraded as soon as possible.

This release also fixes all of the issues encountered with the CMSMS 1.8 release due to the overhaul of the translation function. Your performance in the admin section should be back to normal following this upgrade.
