Most have probably noticed that there are still a few nettlesome leaks in the Bags hull (tortoise-slow posting times & the like). We’re looking into upgrading to the latest version Moveable Type (our publishing software) to plug the remaining lacunae & bring the vessel up to 2006 standards. It’s a fairly steep investment though & not to solicit shamelessly, but any available “Alms” assistance would be much appreciated (go excavate under the cushions of your couch if you have to). Namor will be handling the nuts & bolts end of the switch, which may or may not commence as soon as this weekend, hence the Indian head test pattern above. Once the site goes dark again (probably for no more than a day or two), you’ll know it. In the meantime, I’m studiously attacking my previously uncracked MT handbook in preparation for taking over the technical helm. Allah help us!
Posted by derek on November 10, 2006 7:29 AMsome things going away:
- the features feature. The old ones will be archived, and maybe the occasional feature will have its own link in the right-side column, but submissions are otherwise too sporadic and rarely QA'd.
- links won't go away, but will certainly be scrubbed.
- bag search field will be replaced by a standard google search field for the site.
oh yeah, regarding COMMENTS:
You should only have to click once when you're ready to submit your comment. This side of the site, and the way databases are updated, is rather slow but workable.
