I've just released PmWiki 2.0.10, which provides a couple of bugfixes
and some other feature enhancements.

Most importantly, this release fixes a bug whereby ?action=attr could
cause a page to lose its history information (oops!).  I highly
recommend that existng 2.0.x sites upgrade to 2.0.11.

For sites using LDAP authentication with authuser.php, PmWiki now 
provides $AuthLDAPBindDN and $AuthLDAPBindPassword variables to 
specify the binding to be used for searching. It also works 
around a PHP oddity that causes users to appear authenticated 
when an empty password is provided. 

Authuser.php also now handles straight md5 password encryptions 
(commonly used by MySQL databases).

The core now includes the (:linebreaks:) markup (from Cookbook:LineBreaks), 
which causes text on separate lines in the markup to appear as 
separate lines in the output (i.e., no auto-joining of one 
line to the previous one).

There have been some internal changes designed to provide 
better support for leading-whitespace rules (more details 
on this in a future release).

The core now provides an (:if date:) markup to display text 
only if the current day is within a range of supplied dates. 

Comments and suggestions welcome as always.  Thanks!

Pm
