user_list module patch

This is a patch to fix "other" listing in the user_list module and also adds new custom menu path feature.

There is a bug where the "other" listing includes users whose usernames begin with 'z'. This patch fixes this bug.

This patch also adds a new feature to allow customization of the menu path. The default remains "userlist" but the settings form now allows you to change it to a custom path.

Patch for Notify module

On an active site, the notify module doesn't play nicely with cron. Simply put, it can't send out the emails quick enough, so cron times out and notify doesn't update it's last run time so the next cron run it starts all over again. This results in a *lot* of duplicate emails to people.

This patch should fix that:

Updates on Facebook now

For general CHIME project and site update news, I've switched over to posting to the CHIME Facebook site. For the time being I'll keep labs.chime.com around for any more specific building related tidbits I have time to share.

In the meantime, check out http://facebook.com/chimeinteractive which includes news about other Tom Petty site updates, a brand new web site launch (another great Drupal case study!) for Sammy Hagar (http://www.redrocker.com/), and time we've been spending in the studio with Joe Satriani and Los Lobos.
