Well, this email is address is really the address which I use for mailing lists which I don't read very often. My attention was drawn to the problem because someone sent a message to me on my other address which I do monitor regularly, kleptog(at)svana.org. > Would [email protected] be more appropriate? > Or private mails (or CC copies) have better chances? > > We unfortunately "lost" 1.5 months of DDT* work because things were > broken because, indeed, all of us were unable to fix the code (or > understand where things were broken).

Ouch, it was only 23 January that the description changes happened but it was broken since before that? Since I figured that others were paying attention I didn't. Long term maintenance of the DDTP project is an issue that I do worry about. I personally think that the DDTSS-Django project is a much firmer basis to continue on. It already handles the DDTSS side and the normal web interface, but I think with not too much work could handle most of the rest, with significantly less code that the current system. It's also possible for people to setup their own DDTSS-Django systems much more easily than the current one, which is good for testing. If there really is such a great issue with maintenance I think it would be an idea to push ahead with the new system. I've "fixed" it now, but it's not going to win any beauty contests. In particular the parsing of the Tags is now broken and would require quite a bit of rearranging to fix. I know there were plans in this area, but I'm afraid I lost track. BTW, I'm not 100% convinced everything is working smoothly, so if there are still issues, don't be afraid to speak out. I've cleaned up the DDTSS database so that it now longer shows the errors message people were complaining about.
