The 4.3.1 release features a consistent menu structure across all
scripts, OpenID consumer support as well as various fixes and cleanups
when interacting with external sites.
The later feature is done as a request to certain sites which have been
targeted as relays. These relays in turn were used for malicious
attacks and should prevent most of the problems they have experienced.
Since the site is not checking for the occurrence of these connections
and preventing abuse of them, this should cause a drop in the
effectivenesses and/or use of Ethereal Realms for a proxy.
OpenID support is also the latest addition to the site. It is important
to note that this will only work for new registrations and is not
designed for authentication against existing users since OpenID is
authoritative causing problems if the identifier bans you for example.
For more information on OpenID, please see http://www.openid.net for
more information. Please note that this is also a first step, with
identity provider being planned for the 4.3.2 release of the code itself.
