A new apnscp revision has been released to the servers introducing a new charting framework that will serve as a basis for visualizing data in other applications. First, the venerable Flot has replaced all old charting libraries (pChart and Highcharts for those interested). Additionally, new API routines allow clients to change their primary domain and username (auth_change_domain and auth_change_username). These features will be incorporated directly into the CP in a follow-up revision coming shortly.
IE6 support has been removed entirely from the CP, saving a few precious KB of external stylesheets, as well as jQuery 1.9 along with its myriad compatibility fixes ensuring a long-term support for your control panel.
As always, it’s time for the changelog!
