• Quota is now based on both amount of data and number of observations requested per day.
• Improvements in the Login/Register panel.
• User passwords are now encrypted in the database.
• The Macintosh version of the IDA applet is now the same as for the other platforms.
• Check on the move of observations to the Shopping basket is now done on the on-the-fly reprocessing quality flag.
• Display of referenced wavelength for photometric observations (instead of wavelength ranges).
• Fix search on date.
• Various other minor bugs have been fixed.
