1.1. Why obsolete?

This extension is deprecated since TYPO3 4.2 because it's login-functionality is now integrated into the core as sysext 'felogin'.

The new system-extension 'felogin' comes with long-awaited redirection-functionality and many configuration options, but runs well using only the default settings. When installed, the new extension will replace the old login content element.

The userlisting-plugin has been put into a separate extension 'feuserlisting', available from TER.

The old extension newloginbox is therefore not being maintained anymore with the exception of security-fixes and language-enhancements. That's the reason for marking newloginbox obsolete. See also http://typo3.org/development/articles/release-notes-42/page/3/
