You hit it right on the head. No reason it can't be there already. I believe there's a bug open about it. Would probably be easier if the LoginForm logic and presentation were separated (which there is a recent bug open about). Just a matter of finding a dev willing to put the time into it. -Chad

[Wikitech-l] Tiny issue - login form on login error?

2009-02-13 Thread Erik Moeller

[Wikitech-l] why we had slowdowns

2009-02-13 Thread Domas Mituzas
Hello, probably it is worth telling why we had this headless chicken run lately with all these new servers, and why we didn't do this slowly but surely before all the slowdowns hit us. We use Ganglia to understand cluster capacity, and the major overview place is at: http://ganglia.wikimedi
