option instead.

'session_control' option instead

(e.g. lib/App.php).
+

  ++ Injector Usage

  Various Horde libraries now must be loaded via the injector.

should be contained in scripts/templates.
+
+++ Log handling
+
+Log constants have changed.

+The MIME library has been rewritten - most calls to the library will  
probably need to be changed.

+++ PEAR_Error
+
+Remove PEAR_Error usage - convert to Exceptions.
+Each application should define a APP_Exception library that extends  
Horde_Exception.

-TODO
+No more lib/prefs.php - now uses Horde_Registry_Application calls.
+Update config/prefs.php.dist to remove unneeded entries.
+
+++ Test script

+No longer uses test.php - converted to lib/Test.php.

  ++ Themes

  TODO
+
+++ Url generation
+
+Use Horde_Url:: instead of  
Horde_Util::addParameter()/Horde_Util::removeParameter().
