just in time

What the hell makes you think that changing this tool right in the middle of WLM 2013 is the right point in time? It is looking nicer, but the old tool was stable. The new one isn't. Please make it stable. I get php errors every second request.

Fatal error: PHP Startup: zip: Unable to initialize module Module compiled with module API=20090626 PHP compiled with module API=20100525 These options need to match

Hi, I'm trying to update the code to support chinese character and Toolserver (and Wikimedia Labs) doesn't support my code. Now I'm migrating to another server.

I'm a volunteer (no paid coding or whatever),

Thanks for your "kindly" idea :)
Idea status: completed

We all work here in our free time, do we? It lacks professionalism changing a tool used in a campaign just while the campaign is running and changing it not on a test environment but on the life system. Independent from working for money or for nothing. MO and sorry, my comment was too rude.

The tool stabilized the next day. So thank you for fixing the problems and providing this tool.

After being that rude, may I introduce an idea to a voluntary programmer? At least in Austria we are still working on the images (and it is mid of October), images get post-nominated or their nomination is removed (copyvio, not eligible as not matching the guidelines). So figures are still changing every day but your tool does not reflect it. Figures changed during the contest, so I feel that you just stopped to update the figures on a regular basis. regards
