This is minor release with bugfixes for 3.0-rc-1

We recommend anybody using earlier versions of 3.0 upgrades to this 
version. Chances are high that 3.0 will be identical to this version but 
just with the "3.0" ID instead of "3.0-rc-2".

We now include the previously missing "delete user" feature, which 
was 
supposed to be a feature of 3.0 but got forgotten.
We've also added some new types to the default configuration, but this 
won't affect upgrades, only new repositories.

In depth:
 * Added import plugin for log data.
 * Added $current_lang to available data in eprint script.
 * Moved more code into platform module (to support multiple OS platforms)
 * Used TeX::Encode to provide some handling of accented characters in
    BibTeX import.
 * Added "remove user" action.
 * Added additional metadata fields for new types.
 * Some security fixes in plugins.
 * Fixed issue with < > and & in autocompleter.
