We updated the edition builder.

Some updates are internal: we're now using the version 5.0 of the ZK CE
framework. This means the layout looks slightly different, and we removed
the shadows. Hopefully, some of the layout artifacts will be gone and the
resizing should work more robustly.

The edition builder now remember if you were logged on, as long as you don't
close the browser. It doesn't remember which edition you had open if any,
though.

Support for new catalogs:

VUFind:
http://plus.mnpals.net/vufind/Search/Home?lookfor=&date1=&date2=&sort=&type=all&library=GAC

Summon:
http://umkc.summon.serialssolutions.com

Primo:
http://bibliotheque.uqac.ca/
http://www.library.emory.edu:32888/DB=primo1

VUFind and Summon are implemented as URL templates (aka 'bookmarklets' in
the edition builder's misleading lingo). That is, we detect them and
formulate an appropriate bookmarklet expression. Primo is implemented as a
first-class catalog, because of its complex structure.

Kudos go to Sony Vijay, who implemented most of this code with help from me,
as a warm-up to familiarize herself with the edition builder. She is
currently working on the server-side interface for the Libapp builder that
will allow customizations of cues in LibX 2.0

- Godmar Looks great! I got an error this morning, not sure if it's a loose end left over from the upgrade. When I clicked on the button to change ownership of my edition, I got this message:

The server is temporarily out of service.
Would you like to try again?
