It’s time to hand over the reigns.  Today ZidaneT will step down as sole administrator and in his place will magically appear the mighty Zukira and PonyT.  Both are long time players and trusted members of the community and I’m sure they will be both welcomed and hated in equal measure

I’m sure I speak for everyone when I say this is a much welcomed change, and wish all the best for the suckers new admins.

So long, and thanks for all the fish!

As much as I would like to say shanina has been keeping me busy, unfortunately the truth is much less exciting.

I’ve pretty much been working, standing beside bonfires in the rain, watching fireworks and throwing myself into an awesome fsapi xmlrpc server design, which is going to be the backbone of the shiny new services I keep promising.  With a little luck and a following wind, i’ll be able to get some interface details up onthe labs this week and we can see what we can do with it

Requests per second:    1913.75 [#/sec] (mean)
Time per request:       2.613 [ms] (mean)
Time per request:       0.523 [ms] (mean, across all concurrent requests)

Oh yeah baby.  With a little tinkering, the website is now capable of serving 1913 pages every second. One thousand, nine hundred and thirteen pages per second baby!… Not bad, even if i do say so myself.

Feel free to tell me how awesome i am, and with any luck i’ll have the dev labs up soon (so people can see, and take part in, the funky stuff we are working on behind the scenes).
