It doesn't require PEAR anymore. It still works with the original smarty too. Default values are set. Cached search results are stored within 2 simple tables. All the template files are using the language defines now.
Upload form is enabled again, only supervisors and admins can use it.
The overview page shows the highest categorie with the small summary. Info about reviewers and publishers are shown through a tracker system on the info.php. Fixed an error on deleting the search cache, locking problem. Fixed a bug that would only save one writer when people altered a book. Do not use it on production sites yet.
