Also the posting dialog box all of the sudden seems to adjusts to my screen resolution rather than having a fixed width.

Oh, and two very vestigial features disappeared in the super-duper upgrade:
  1. IMG button in the New post / Edit post forms.
  2. The "View posts made within the last 24 hours" feature.

:-D

Now, it's google friendly. Google didn't follow the old links, therefore the forum wasn't fully indexed. Hopefully this changes now and site:forums.gentoo.org <searchterm> brings up better results.

Wildcard searches were also disabled ages ago (for performance reasons I gather), yet after this upgrade the search form still incorrectly claims you can "use * as a wildcard for partial matches".

Time for either the OP or the mods to rename this topic? Seems to have grown beyond the scope of the original post. :-D
