DotNetNuke 5.1.3 Released

With the month of September coming to a close it is time once again for another DotNetNuke Stabilization release. 

DotNetNuke 5.1.3 resolves almost 40 issues with the previous release and further stabilizes the 5.x codebase.  Given the stability of the recent 5.x releases it should not come as any surprise that the fixes in this release tend to be narrow edge cases or resolved problems where well known workarounds were available.  We also added a minor modification that improves the ability of administrators to email event logs to their support providers.  This will allow system integrators, hosters and consultants providing DotNetNuke customer support to get a better snapshot of errors that the user is experiencing without relying on the user to accurately cut and paste error messages. The changes outlined below were incorporated in these releases.  As usual, the complete details for all of the changes can be found in the ChangeLog.
