Greetings! 
You perhaps noticed some downtime this afternoon for a longer-than-anticipated round of updates - thanks for bearing with us as we took care of some database work.
Here are the release notes for today:
Javascript Performance Improvements
As part of our ongoing work on improving performance, we recently made some significant optimizations to the amount of Javascript we load onto the page. Here are the general results of these improvements:
The way we're measuring performance in this case is the decrease in lag from when the initial page displays, to when Javascript features are usable.
Other Minor Functionality Improvements
RTE Upgraded
We upgraded the version of CKEditor we use to version 3.6.3. Here is the list of the CK Editor bugs that were fixed by upgrading.
Hide Empty Personal Albums
We no longer display empty personal albums on galleries portal page and category pages. This should help clean up the appearance of album lists in galleries.
Bug Fixes
Here's the list of bugs fixed with this release:
9077 - Fix bug that was preventing some users from posting
6880 - Clean up signature for users who are no longer Industry Insiders so that they no longer get the Insider signature
8813 - Correctly handle auto-link URLs with parenthesis, such as http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Friday_(film)
8841 - Only count guests who can successfully access a forum in the "Currently Viewing" for a forum (this mainly affects private forums)
9202 - Albums that were once popular were getting "stuck" in the popular albums display and never go away. They now go away if they are surpassed by other albums
9131 - Tweak verbiage around unsubscribing from comment notifications to tell users to go to their account details
9149 - Display appropriate error message when users leave trader feedback without a URL
9093 - ALT+S (or CTRL+Enter) now correctly submits posts for members who were having issues with this
9154 - Trader feedback number is now displayed again on trader feedback page

Javascript Performance Improvements
As part of our ongoing work on improving performance, we recently made some significant optimizations to the amount of Javascript we load onto the page. Here are the general results of these improvements:
- Chrome showed an 18% reduction in memory usage.
- Firefox showed a 15% increase performance. Memory usage was not significantly different.
- IE9 was very similar to Firefox - pages also load about 15% faster.
- IE8 showed improvements in both memory usage and performance, with a 25% reduction in memory usage and 35% increase in performance. IE8's load times are a full second faster now (from 2700ms to 1750ms)!
