What do you mean 'partial quoting'?
As for multi-quoting, I would actually encourage multi-posting followed with automatic or manual merging of posts. I'm going windward, I know. That's me :) The windward guy.

'kay, what's with the dozens of topics updated all of a sudden? :^^;:
rev 145
- Deleted upgrade_1-0.sql and upgrade_1-1.sql, as we're not going to support upgrading from SMF 1.x anyway. (upgrade.php)
- Deleted ability to upgrade from YaBBSE. Did you know it was still in there?! (upgrade.php, Install.english.php)
- Deleted one of the smiley sets, because I have a problem with its name right now. :P
! Fixed a misplaced menu in the admin area in RTL mode. Although it might break sidebars... We'll see about that later. (rtl.css)

We have something similar in France... Popular among kids when I was young... Il était une fois une marchande de foie qui vendait du foie dans la ville de Foix. Elle se dit ma foi c'est la première fois que je vends du foie dans la ville de Foix.
(Once upon a time, there was a liver seller who sold liver in the city of Foix. Then she thought oh my, it's the first time I'm selling liver in the city of Foix.)
Of course foie/Foix/foi/fois are all pronounced the same.

rev 144
* Renamed ie-css3.htc to css3.htc, fixed a couple of crashers in the code[1], and deleted all code related to box-shadow and text-shadow, as we won't be using it. (css3.htc)
* Found a better fix for wrc class not behaving correctly: it simply needed to have layout. Uh. Replaced width: 100% with zoom: 1, so it can be applied to all of its variations. (ie6.css)
+ Added a PNG fix script for IE6 emulation of transparent PNGs and correct background repeat. Believe me, it's a miracle that this thing works. (pngfix.js, index.template.php)
- Deleted ie8.css because it's only two lines, and added them to the index template.
* Moved body styling to a new wrapper, so that the body background can be properly redrawn in IE6. (index.template.php, index.css)

+ Added support for rounded corners for IE 6, 7 and 8, through ie-css3.htc (the only solution that worked for me), and only for wrc and roundframe classes (to save on performance). (ie6.css, ie7.css, ie8.css, ie-css3.htc, index.template.php)
! Forgot to add grad40.png gradient file. Really?
- Deleted roadmap.txt and todo.txt files (early SMF1 stuff.)
* Spacinazi. (GenericMenu.template.php, Packages.template.php)

Yeah I didn't notice Spielberg in the first place (no beard, IIRC!), but after I saw the trivia on imdb.com, I went back to the movie and was stunned. Eheh.

Oh, you've actually registered it, eh? ;)
I really, really, really hate WP's default template... Why is it that everything 'stock' has to be so bland? "Oh, because it's easier to build upon...!" Yeah, bollocks!

- Deleted the quotefast compatibility code for IE5. (Load.php, Post.php, Post.english.php, Post.template.php, topic.js)
! quotefast was called in a couple of places with a never used 'pb' var (it's an actual SMF bug, BTW, when used along with the 'xml' var.) (Post.template.php, topic.js)
* previewPost() should always assume that Ajax is available. (Post.template.php)
So, you're into my last modified fix? I thought you weren't :P Trying to cheer me up I'm sure :lol:
Oh, that BB scene was priceless. I never cared to watch the movie until a couple of months ago. What a treat!

Feeling a bit down... Not even css work can help here.
rev 141
* Changed menu hover color. If you can spot a difference, you're holy. (index.css)
* Reworked quotes, so that they don't look half as ugly. (index.css)
* Added a subtle border around cat_bar and title_bar, to make them a bit livelier. (index.css)
* Modified the admin/profile sidebar, because it's one of the ugliest Curve designs ever. Really. I hate cat_bar, but putting them as separators between plain white backgrounds is evil. (index.css, GenericMenu.template.php)
! Don't show the editor's name if it's the same as the original poster's. THE controversial commit to SMF. I'm defying the gods of reversal, because I'm craaaaazy. (BoardIndex.template.php)

I don't know. I don't like having to make so many compromises... Here's another one:
rev 140
! A mystic fix for IE's overflow issues in topic pages... .wrc { width: 100% }. Take that! (ie6.css)
* Replaced bars.png with yet another gradient in my arsenal, grad40.png -- this should allow themers to change cat_bar and title_bg background colors on a whim. (index.css)
- Removed theme graphics that were no longer used... :) (backdrop.png, bars.png, frame_repeat.png, main_block.png, menu.png)
I'm not happy with the new cat_bar/title_bar color. And believe me I spent my entire afternoon setting it up. I want to have only one gradient file for both bars. In the end I'll probably change the colors anyway, but I want to have a 'Curve' CSS variant and would like it to be as vibrant as the original. Feel free to change the gradient if you can come up with anything better.

! Fixed capacity bar in PM area. (index.css)
! Added an overflow hack to cat_bar/title_bar to avoid any annoying float glitches in the future. I'd rather not use it, though. (index.css)
* Renamed 'MSN Messenger' to 'Live Messenger' in the language files. (Internally, it's still the same old horrible MSN Messenger.) (index.english.php, Profile.english.php)
Re: the overflow hack, this is a simple one I've been advocating to the SMF team and they always say "it doesn't work everywhere" (even though it does...) and they wouldn't use it (even if they use it in their own title_bar/cat_bar definition, albeit not in the best way.) The most logical way to avoid float glitches is really to avoid having ONLY floated elements inside a div... But in some cases it's hard to find the right balance. For instance, in the PM box, I tried deleting one of the capacity bar floats, and it didn't look good. So I came back to an all-float thingy, and added a (!!) at the end, and guess what, it worked... Uh. Well, it's still a hack, and I don't know if it's nice. Ideally, I would check all of the floated areas in the source code and fix them all manually.
Then again, maybe the overflow hack is best.
