[twitter-dev] Bad bug when editing lists on twitter.com

2009-11-20 Thread Tim Haines
Hey Twitter guys, I had 2 lists. Both named "My Favstar.fm List". One with slug 'my-favstar-fm-list", and the other with slug "my-favstar-fm-list-8". (I'd created a few and deleted some with the same name). The list without the -8 suffix is the one I've been using in anger, and has 35 members.
