Ah. There is another annoying bug in profile.module which gives wrong data in /profile. Data in fields was not cleared so the data will show in next record if fields in the next record are empty. Below is the patch for this problem.

In recent post, I made a patch for configurable ping.module. Anyway, some ping servers don"t accept simple ping, instead they preferred extendedPing. For example, blo.gs.

According to patch of blogapi.module, the second problem is to save category properly. Since the taxonomy.module now support load operation in nodeapi hook, $node->taxonomy is not just a plain array of string anymore. Instead it is a standard class so taxonomy.module must handle the object correct.
