If that message is for when MediaWiki breaks, presumably that means the squids are still up and running and, obviously, they can survive the traffic. Could the squids run a simplified version of the donation software themselves? It doesn't need to have all the interesting comments and statistics and stuff that we usually have. In fact, it doesn't need much more than a link to paypal. _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
