Hi all,
I did a bit of cleanup in the Piwik plugins code, and authentication 
architecture.
- better Plugins Management UI: directly coming from wordpress (because 
wordpress rocks)
- simplified the Authentication mechanism: it should now be very easy to 
create your custom Login module (ldap, OpenId, your custom machinery)
- adding a new widget in the dashboard, listing the last posts on 
Piwik.org/blog (developed in 15min thanks to Zend_Feed and Piwik 
simplicity to create a new widget)
- token_auth in the URL will now authenticate only for the API (before 
you could use the parameter to authenticate everywhere, but that wasn't 
expected)
- plugin developers, you can now change the length of a visit 
VISIT_STANDARD_LENGTH in the config file (visit_standard_length       = 
1800 by default)

- splitting up the ExamplePlugin in several small other plugins 
(ExampleRssWidget, ExampleAPI, ExampleFeedburner)
- renamed the three core plugins for clarity (Home -> CoreHome 
PluginsAdmin -> CorePluginsAdmin AdminHome -> CoreAdminHome)

For those of new plugged on the SVN, please report here any problem you 
might experience.
