Hi all
I'm posting here the new text document for Pubstat v1.3 so that you can have a look and see if I didn't forget anything.
Pubstats v1.3 is not yet available - it will be very soon.
If you spot anything missing in this version please let me know asap, so I can think about adding it before everyone jumps to v1.3

Version numbers
---------------------
Since v1.1, Version numbers have been introduced, to make future updates easier while not having to disrupt your existing scripts. If you were already running a script, you don't have to change anything, unless you want to make use of the new features that come with the latest versions.
The current version is v1.3
Version numbers should be indicated in the url, via the "version" variable.
User-identification (login / Ident-Key)
--------------------------------------------
The option to identify yourself has been introduced in v1.2. From then on identification has been voluntary, but since v1.3, identification is obligatory for all. You cannot use Pubstat without identification. This is not so that we can play big brother - it is so that we get a clearer picture on the usage of Pubstat, since this is a large portion of LFS World traffic.
Identification is also meant to make the Premium Pubstat service possible.
There are two ways to identify yourself:
1) Using an Ident-Key which you can generate on behalf of your account on the LFS World settings pages
You can feed an Ident-Key to the pubstat script via the following variable:
&idk=<Ident-Key>
If you bind an IP address to an Ident-Key, then pubstat will make sure that only that IP address can use that Ident-Key.
or
2) Using your normal login (the same as your LFS account), via the following two url-variables :
&user=<username>
&pass=<password>
== Password Notice ==
<password> may be your password in plain text, or you can md5 it before sending (strongly recommended).
== Password Notice ==
