If you're logging in for the first time since Wednesday you may notice a little orange number next to your username in the upper right-hand corner of the page. This number represents the unread messages—invitations to join projects, or change roles, etc— waiting on your account account page. We've also made the login process less obtrusive and deemphasized the role of the account page, so we figured adding this feature would keep messages from going unread and getting stale.

New functionality:

• Login now redirects you to the last page you were viewing
• Added message count to the user menu in the site navigation

Bug fixes:

• Corrected roles for former administrators editing or rejoining projects
• Improved unicode character support for project titles
• Improved search behavior
• Performance improvements underlying project teams
• Minor interface improvements to wiki history pages
• Corrected persistence of descriptions on news items
