Website update

Submitted by Aldo on November 10, 2006 - 14:59.

In order to build a defence against the recent spam attacks, the spv-dev site has been updated to a newer version of Drupal. Apart from security updates, there are some minor usability improvements as well.

The update seems to be succesful, but there's always a chance you find a bug in the site. If so, let me know in the site feedback forum.
