Added warning message that displays on admin console if cron hasn't been run in over 7 days

  Added new function fp_get_module_details to misc.inc

  Modified system.install so that core modules get the version of "core" when first installed.

  Changed maintenance mode message slightly in system.module

  Tweaked update_status module to make it more clear, and added a "check now" url and link,
  so users can check for new modules instead of waiting for cron.

  Limited search results (student_search.module) to 300, and display message if 300 is reached.

  Fixed bug in db.inc, function variable_get().  If what you were getting was boolean TRUE, then it would
  show as FALSE!  Kind of a nasty bug!

  Added new "short" date format to format_date function, in theme.inc

  Updated documentation in hook.api.php
