add added an isPublic flag to projects. If not public then the public can not view the project, instead clicking on the link will ask them if they want to request to join the project. detkin

add added facility so that a site user can ask to join and leave a project lbutgereit
add added a myData module and facility. There is a method named displayUsersData to the base module, if a module wants to display content it holds for a user then it does so in this method. detkin
add added a hardURLConverter servlet. This allows any module to register a hardURLHandler into a chain of responsibility. If the module understands the URL then it can translate it into a URL coefficient understands. This will allow human readable bookmarks of projects, discussions, fileuploads, etc... detkin
add added new "Most Recent Projects" module, this is an orphan module for now so it will only show up when asked for. detkin
add added new "Most Recent File Upload" module that displays the most recently added uploaded files that are world readable, this is an orphan module for now so it will only show up when asked for. detkin

add added a level of abstraction the to the reporting of statistics so and added an implementation so that statistics now work with the webapp deploy. detkin
update complete re-write of the issue tracker html, flow, and images. detkin
update modified the Constants to extend the new BaseConfigurationBackedConstants object. This is so that we can easily offer a database backed Constants class for any one who wants to use it. This is also used by the new ProjectConstants class. detkin
update changed coefficient to use a new jar'ed version of the HibernateUtil. This version eliminates the need to do any hibernate session management. NOTE: this change means that a hibernate session spans the length of, your transaction if runnig as EJB, or your request if running as a webapp. detkin
update moved the fileUpload module out of the core and into its own cvs module detkin
update reworked all modules in the system so the default behavior is to return the CoefficientContext instead of void. Also reworked all the remote calls so that if they are sending around the context that they set their reference to the return value. This is so that we can still use the context to setValues into but when we are passing by value (remote invokes) we will not loose our data. detkin
update added a method to the CoefficientContext, clearModulesContent, which will return t he modules content string to the caller and not render the content when the page gets rendered. This is to allow modules to easily embed another modules content within its own, it only need invoke the module and then clear its content, capturing the returning string and render that where it wishes. detkin
fix reworked the CoefficientContext so that it will be safe to serialize the object. This is needed so that when we send it across a wire via a remote call it can be property transmitted. detkin
fix changed the structure of the statistics so that we can update them without makeing the project version change, this fixed a bug with statistics rollover. detkin
