[rt-devel] RT 3.0.4pre1

[Jesse]

RT 3.0.4pre1 contains a set of fixups and cleanups and two seperate 
MASSIVE performance improvements. Both relate to ACL checks.  One change
was based on work done by Chris Audley and results in significantly
faster generation of pages like Update.html that have to figure out who
can own a given ticket. The other is a new change based on research by
Phil Homewood that seems to massively improve the performance of ALL acl
checks by working around SQL server query optimizer quirks.

Additionally, support for various bits of RTFM was enhanced, and the
storage and display of transactions about relationships between tickets
was signficantly enhanced and extended.

This release would be RC1 instead of pre1, except my postgres test
machine is off in the shop, so I've only been able to run the test suite
against mysql.  I'm anxious to hear back from folks about how this
release feels.
