Download info has been recovered from 10 years of logs but not applied as rep events. There will also be an adjustment to the download rep points themselves.
Unfortunately the recalc didn't complete in time this weekend so I'll wait until next.

What's the adjusted value? From past history you know we're going to argue whatever you picked; so why delay the festivities.

You would pick a random number generator that has significant issues[^] with the quality of results.
3x12=36
2x12=24
1x12=12
0x12=18

It's called misdirection. I get you guys to debate endlessly about exactly how the random number generator that is used is the wrong one while I nip out the back and get on with my work.

I see another bug though. The graph is looking really nasty, with 9 iterations of May on the axis.

2x12=24

This May turns out to be a very big month for some.

Yep, although I'm not sure why. i noticed a bunch of authors got large rep spikes in the last day; but at levels far below what 5 points/download would have yielded if the full history was parsed in an update.

I tried to vote an article a 3 without putting a note. When I clicked "vote", nothing happened. Seems there was no postback and nothing indicated there was an AJAX action to log my vote. My guess is that I am required to put a comment to vote, but there is no feedback letting me know what I need to do (e.g., increase my vote or add a comment). That's issue #1. There should be some sort of feedback mechanism.
There is a little orangish bar at the bottom of the article above the ad banner and below the article text. It has a link to "Article Top" and it contains the "Vote" button. After I vote on an article, that vote button changes to a little voting meter. Only after I vote do I see a strange empty hover box when I mouse over that orangish bar. That is issue #2. If you want a screenshot, Chris, send a private email reply to this message and I'll reply to your email with a screenshot.

It's probably got something to do with the impending Rapture.

I've added a hint for #1, and #2 is a known issue I'm hoping to get fixed in the next week or so. We have a new hire coming aboard and I'm throwing all the little bits and pieces that have been annoying as at her. I justify this as "a great way to learn lots about the system in a short period of time".
Mwahaha.

I think the rapture did happen, because it seems all that is left over is pure evil.

Hey, she gets 3 monitors. How evil can that be?

Hi,
It would be nice to add the EUPL[^] to the accepted licenses.

OK, so compatible with GPLv2, but not compatible with GPLv3.
No wonder people are using the Apache license!

GPLv3 is dated 29 June 2007, the link in my previous post was published on Mar 11, 2009
I suppose EUPL updating is a lengthy process, which is not bad in this case

For historical reasons, the GNU GPLv3 is not (like the GPLv2) mentioned in the list of “EUPL compatible licenses”.
As long there are no concordant requests from EUPL users, this situation will probably not change.
The EUPL downstream compatibility works as a FLOSS exception list: while the EUPL is copyleft regarding the covered software, it is permitted to license under a compatible license a larger derivative work, including the covered software and another software received under this compatible licence (i.e. the GPLv2).
However, any EUPL licensor may, owning full copyright on software, extend the exception to the GPLv3. Publishing such FLOSS exception lists is a frequent practice to improve interoperability when a component is licensed under copyleft conditions.
See Oracle / MySQL using the GPLv2 http://www.mysql.com/about/legal/licensing/foss-exception/ ) or Sencha using the GPLv3- http://www.sencha.com/legal/open-source-faq/open-source-license-exception-for-applications/).
For any request about the EUPL, see http://www.osor.eu/legal-questions-1/contact-legal.

I can't be as specific as I'd like to be as the site is going bonkers at the moment. I just saw a JavaScript article called something like "Simple and Useful Tutorial on Regular Expressions in JavaScript". I clicked the radio button to give it a 3 vote, a textbox popped up, and I started typing. Took me about 5 minutes to complete my thoughts. I then clicked "Vote" and the little AJAX animation (circle of dots) displayed for about 5 minutes before I decided to click the "Link" at the bottom of the page.
That then said "Page Not Found" and pointed me to the article, which I clicked and which then loaded fine. My guess is that the article got moved while I was typing in my comments, but I'm not sure... I didn't note the original URL. So I tried again and my vote of 3 got posted along with my message.
I then came here to explain the problems I encountered. I tried to paste a link to the article I had copied to the clipboard (now that I think of it, it's still there: "http://www.codeproject.com/KB/IP/JavaScriptRegExpression.aspx") but my browser froze for a minute or so and I just forced it to close. My guess is that the server was unavailable and that the JavaScript didn't have a reasonable timeout while attempting to get the name of the article.
Also, when I went to the homepage to get the link to the article (which, as you saw above, I eventually realized I still had on the clipboard), the homepage only partially loaded, so I gave up and close that too. I'm guessing this is all due to some server upgrade or something, but thought I'd mention it. Also of note is that the menu to the left of the Lounge disappeared at one point (though I think it was back soon after).

We sure did get a couple of software updates anywhere from 6 hours ago till now. I wasn't in, can't be more specific.
