Hi Barbie, I would like to close the
http://cpantesters.szabgab.com/stats/ site (where pass.cpantesters.org is currently pointing) you already have the code and running on the central site: http://www.cpantesters.org/stats/ So I don't see any reason to keep it on my server too. Please redirect pass.cpantesters.org to the new place where the code is running ( http://www.cpantesters.org/stats/ ) and I am going to setup a redirection from http://cpantesters.szabgab.com/ to the same place. regards Gabor On Thu, Jul 17, 2008 at 4:14 PM, Barbie <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi folks, > > I'm currently working on the code that generates the databases for the > Statistics and Reports sites.
