[announce] Horde 3.1.2 (final)

[Jan Schneider]

The Horde Team is pleased to announce the final release of the Horde
Application Framework version 3.1.2.

This is a bugfix release that also fixes cross site scripting vulnerabilities
in three places and removes some unused proxy code.

Many thanks to Moritz Naumann for reporting these problems and working with us
to test the fixes.

The Horde Application Framework is a modular, general-purpose web application
framework written in PHP.  It provides an extensive array of classes that are
targeted at the common problems and tasks involved in developing modern web
applications.

Major changes compared to Horde 3.1.1 are:
    * Security Fixes
      - Closed XSS problems in dereferrer (IE only), help viewer and problem
        reporting screen.
      - Removed unused image proxy code from dereferrer.
    * Bugfixes and improvements
      - Added configuration option to disable GET-based sessions.
      - Added Oracle and generic SQL upgrade scripts.
      - Improved default charset support.
      - Improved API and RPC interface.
      - Fixed the preference cache.
