the rest of the schema updates - WARNING: some third party plugins may fail; e.g. embedphotos and chess. $item['object'] is now $item['obj'] and $photo['type'] is $photo['mimetype'], $photo['scale'] is $photo['imgscale'] and $photo['data'] is now $photo['content']. There are a number of other changes, but these are the ones noted to cause issues with third-party plugins. The project plugins have been updated. Please note any new issues as this effort touched a lot of code in a lot of files.
