which new features and fixes were implemented in version 0.6.79, compared to the older 75 version? I can't seem to find version updates history on the site

I don't know how is it for everyone, but for me when i type in a query into a search box, it takes aroung 2-3 seconds to generate suggestions, which i think is rather slow. Most users won't wait that long. can speed be improved ?

I realized that i want not only anonymous posting but also better experience for users with existing google/yahoo etc accounts
2011-04-11 23:55:38 -0500 commented question Better user sign in/sign up process (updated)
yes i guess, what i want is anonymous posting. but other than that. even if a user DOES want to sign in to post his question, the flow can be made simple. for instance, when a user choose Google to sign in, he is presented with yet ANOTHER page to fill his screen name and email., these additional pages should be eliminated for new and for users with existing accounts
2011-04-11 23:36:25 -0500 commented question Better user sign in/sign up process (updated)
when a new user posts fills out his questions and click "login/sign up to post" he is redirected to a page with options to sign in. which is another additional step, id say it is a HUGE barrier to post a question for a new user. maybe a simple ReCaptcha form at the bottom of the question would be better (for unregistered users).

[question updated based from comments below]

i wish the whole flow of a new user asking a question was more elegant.

1) i think the button "Login/sign up to post" is rather confusing to users

2) Even users who want to login to post (with their existing Google/Yahoo/ etc account) are presented with yet ANOTHER page to fill out their screen name and email. I think this page is unnecessary and presents a barrier for many regular one-time users.
