0.2 (2011-10-01)
features:
 * new Special:HeadersFooters page for easy header/footer creation/editing
 * compatibility with MW messages, better i18n support (thanks Alphos, bawolff)

breaking changes / requires admin action:
 * switch to MW messages changes all header/footer urls, you will need to move them! Sorry!

The new method is much more robust, the old method can potentially break other pages/messages in your wiki. i18n support is also improved as messages are unlikely to break between MW translation changes of namespaces.
 * $wgHeadersFootersUsingPages's new default is false for speed reasons,

if you use or want page headers/footers please set it to true in your LocalSettings.php

notes:
 * switched hook ParserBeforeStrip to ArticleAfterFetchContent for better support and less hacks (thanks Dantman)
 * cleaned up functions and simplified the extension, making use of more core messaging functions, Xml object
 * special thanks to RoanKattouw, DanielFriesen and Dantman for coding advice
