ANNOUNCE: Bricolage 1.4.6

The Bricolage team is pleased to announce the release of Bricolage
1.4.6, the PostgreSQL-backed enterprise content management system. This
maintenance release, which will likely be the final 1.4.x release, fixes
over 20 bugs in version 1.4.5 Among the more important bug fixes are the
following:

* Bric::SAOP::Handler now properly logs fatal errors that are
strings rather than exceptions.

* Fixed bug in publish code that was attempting to use the Apache
request object as a media asset. Thanks to John Greene for the
spot.

* Category permissions are now properly checked on assets when
they're not in workflow as well as when they are in
workflow. This means that if a group of users is granted
permission to access stories in a category, they can now access
those stories even if they're not in workflow.

* The search interface for locating media and story assets to
relate
to a story now checks the permissions of the assets found and
only
displays the assets for which the user has at least READ
permission.
Thanks to Sean Greathouse for the spot.

* Contributor Association now includes search options and only
currently-associated contributors are displayed before
searching.

* The ability to select different fields by which to sort a list
of
objects now works again. [David]

* Fixed reordering code for subelements. The select list for
subelements should now always have an appropriate value.

* Date fields can now be unset. That is, if each of the select
fields is set to its label, rather than a value, it'll stay that
way. This was first noticed with the "Expire Date" in
stories. Thanks to Philip Fibiger for the spot.

* Modified installation "CREATE DATABASE" command to always
create the
database with the encoding set to UTF-8 (UNICODE). [David]

All users of earlier versions of Bricolage are encouraged to
upgrade. For a complete list of the changes, see the changes file at
