Gruta version 2.2.0 released

Version 2.2.0 of the Gruta CMS, codenamed "Osmannoro", has been released. This release needs Artemus version 4.1.2. The following changes were made:

Story rendering is cached, resulting in faster page loading.
An existing story can be copied to another topic from the story edition form.
The template stories_by_date has changed the order of their output values; now they are topic_id, id and date.
The RSS template now accepts an optional CGI argument tag, to get feeds on stories by tag.
Multiple sources are no longer supported; it never really worked well, made the code cumbersome and had no real advantage after all. The cgi caller needs not to be changed, as the sources argument is still supported (only the first one is used, though), but the scalar source is preferred now.
The file format in the FS source has changed; the .META extension has been changed to .M, and .TAGS to .T. Also, new files appear in the stories directory with the .A and .B extensions, holding the rendered abstract and story body, respectively. The transition is made automatically on the first run, no manual operation is needed.
New argument hard_top_ten_limit to Gruta::Source::FS, to set the maximum number of stories to be tested when generating the top read stories index (previously hardcoded to 100).
New argument min_size_for_gzip to Gruta::CGI, to set the minimum size for the output body to be Gzip compressed (previously hardcoded to 10000).
If a story pointed by a story:// pseudo-url has a publication date in the future, only the title is shown (i.e., it's not clickable).
The Mbox source is officially deprecated.
Static URLs are also generated for the CSS, RSS and SITEMAP pages. The following mod_rewrite rule must be added to the ones suggested in the previous version:

 RewriteRule ^/style\.css$     /?t=CSS              [PT]
