Change all the PHP code to use _mysql_query() instead of mysql_query()
(and similar for other functions).
_mysql_query() uses the mysqli API if available, else the old API.
Going forward, all PHP code should the DB abstration layer if possible;
else it should use the _mysql_* functions.
Old: in a flat file (html/project/project_news.inc)
New: in a forum (called "News" by default)
The script html/ops/news_convert.php copies news from
old to new format.
You'll also need to edit your index.php and use
"show_news(0, 5)" to show news.
- web: added a "message of the day" mechanism.
Edit html/user/motd.php to show a message.
This will be shown as the first news item,
but it's not archived (i.e., it's not a forum post)
