Pre-release alpha till 1.99
Version 1.91.1 Release 2008-11-19
[Update] Install-only patch to include Wotlk raids.
[Caveat] All caveats are shown on the first page of install including:
* No icons available for Wotlk at this time.
* Version is shown as 1.91 on pages, but 1.91.1 in DB keys table

Version 1.91 Release 2008-09-06

[Fix] (1.80) Settings view now uses correct table name.
[Caveat] Settings in installer (steps 2 and 5) and TOS (step 6) can not be changed after
installation. This is possible by modifying the files in the /user directory.
[Caveat] (1.90) Changing a name on a main character causes problems in the guild list,
and even on the main screen (showing as logged out.) Workaround is to
create a new character, then delete the old one.

[Fix] (1.90) Category links now include path to RT (unfortunate regression.)
Version 1.90 Release 2008-08-15
Note: This version has modest changes to the database tables, so this version will not
work well with previous versions.
[New] List view changes freeze times to close times, and now separates them by additions
and withdrawls.
[New] Close and invite times now requires an actual time instead of calculating minutes/
hours prior to start time. RT will calculate times entered up to 23h 59m prior to
start time.

to confirm e-mail is spelled right.
