Calendar

• Timezones now render in a more human-friendly way in mail.

Conpherence

• Conpherence has received some infrastructure updates and minor workflow improvements.
• Conpherence no longer has separate "Can Join" and "Can View" policies; users who can view a room can now join it.
• Added a new profile menu item type for Conpherence rooms.

Countdown

• For consistency with other applications, countdowns may no longer be destroyed from the web UI.

Search

• Fixed an issue with paginating fulltext seach results.
• The query result UI now provides feedback about stopwords and short words.
• We no longer submit stopwords or short terms to the query engine, working around a bug with IN BOOLEAN MODE and quoted stopword terms.

Minor

• We now reject URIs in the form http://good.com#:p@evil.com. Various parsers, not all of which are under our control, parse these URIs in different ways, and parsing behavior differs across versions of PHP.
• Added bin/storage optimize to make running OPTIMIZE TABLE easier. In some cases, this may reclaim some disk space, but this is primarily targeted at internal use cases.

• Fixed a few bits of fallout in Files from earlier changes.

• Common and reasonable username MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM no longer overflows the "Subscribers" element in the curtain UI.
• Differential now shows hint text instead of checkboxes when accepting only if you have exactly one reviewer option to accept on behalf of and that option is yourself.
• Older rejects correctly prevent revisions from transitioning to "Accepted" again.
• bin/policy show is now aware of PolicyCodex.
• Adjusted the ordering and filtering for closed/disabled/bot results in typeaheads to prevent an issue where some results could become unselectable.
• Unverified/unapproved users now have a purple dot instead of a grey dot.
• Well-known Phabricator configuration files now highlight correctly as JSON.
• Improved validation of syntax.filemap configuration option.
• When processing "Fixes XXX", we now act as the commit author if we can identify an author.
• Username changes now dirty the SSH key cache immediately.
