Righto, I'm home now... Heres a summary of the major updated and changes (taken from the dev list in the wiki:
Big ticket items are highlighted.
* Move caches found / hidden map to GCA from caughtatwork.net (thematic plot)
* Add distance and direction to cache page for GCA caches only.
* Add distance and direction to caches/available page for all caches.
* Zip gpx files for state files.
* Add a simple summary to the cacher page of how many finds of each cache type. It's actually a graph file on the All Graphs link.
*
Advanced search/query/stats engine
* Download any search as a gpx/kml, etc (as well as ZIP, GMAP, KML, RSS).
* Allow default search to return case insensitive Forum Members as well as cachers (requested by Ginger Loon).
* Fix bug in Moveable Caches. Original state doesn't update when cache moved interstate (does now).
* Fix bug in Locationless Caches. Original state doesn't update when new co-ordinates are entered (does now).
*
CacheStats: A plethora of new and almost, but not quite entirely, useless stats by cacher.
*
Upcoming Events: From the Caches tab you can now select all upcoming events, country and region selector as standard functions.
*
Future Cache Releases: You can set a 'Future' status in conjunction with a future date and the cache will be automatically set to available at 00:00:01 on the day of the future date. Handy when you want to organise an event or competition with a bunch of caches you don't want to have to manually set to available at some ungodly hour of the morning.
* auto-remove planned caches when found: Done
* Let Google Maps show your DRAFT cache as long as you are the owner. ie. When you create a DRAFT cache, you can go to the cache page and click on the Google Maps link. It will show you where the cache is according to the co-ordinates. If it's wrong, then your co-ordinates are wrong and you should check them before setting the cache to active.
* Check the length of the cache description and if it's less than 50 words, pop out a notice to recommend that the owner add a little more to the description for the enjoyment and benefit of the people who will try and find the cache.
* more GPX options, eg unfound caches, etc
* look into fixing postcode database
o
new postcode data has been uploaded - states can check the accuracy
*
New Icon Set
* Modification of logs for more cache-specific types ie: 'Attended' for events
*
'Your GCA Logs' GPX file, to keep your GSAK up to date with ALL your GCA logs
*
Gallery
o Add a 'cache' gallery for the main cache page
o Allow co-ordinate tagging of images and explore what we can do with this
o Update Wiki with Gallery instructions
*
Cache Proximity Alert
* State Checker - Make sure those co-ords are in the State indicated on the listing
*
Swaggies
o Make them work with mySQL
o Integrate Gallery into Swaggies and Swaggies Logs
o Allow logging of swaggies by non gca users in foreign caches (and also by gca users in foreign caches)
* Show watched Caches on the cache page
* Sort out handling of Locationless Caches
* No more having to add line breaks into GCA logs!
*
Tagging - Flikr style tagging of caches/images/swaggies
Theres loads of other stuff too, but I can't remember what.......
