Features not yet available in the v0.90 release of XASECO2:
- the Dedimania world records system is not yet available for TM²C, so the corresponding plugins are not included
- MX (Mania Exchange) support will follow in a future release due to time constraints, so the pertaining plugin and classes are not included, and /add, /admin add and /xlist are disabled
- planet transactions are not yet possible so the donate plugin and its panels are not included, and /admin pay doesn't work either
- plugin.matchsave.php has only been partially edited for the aforementioned naming changes, and plugin.rasp_irc.php not at all
