The API was changed slightly so that has_capability now takes the
whole $context object (we almost always have it anyway)
The $kill thing was removed. If you want to assert a capability
then use:
require_capability('capname', $context);
with optional variables to modify the error message
Misc bugs here and there also removed and code tidied
=======================================
WARNING: DEV IS CURRENTLY VERY UNSTABLE.
This is a mega-checkin of the new Roles system. A lot of changes have
been made in core and modules.
Currently there are a lot of rough edges and known problems. We are
working hard on these .. .the reason for getting this into HEAD at this
stage is enable us to move faster (our branch was diverging from HEAD
too much).
Please keep an eye on http://docs.moodle.org/en/Roles for current status
and information for developers on how to use the new Roles system.
(While I was at it I also turned the autologinguests off for most module pages, except on the index.php pages and the view.php pages for those modules that allow guests)
