[COMMUNITY] MeFi's developers, both staff and members, have been tinkering away on several projects, making changes here and there, both on the current site and the planned new site.
First up is Frimble, who has put together a simple moderation log to track official mod comments and post deletions, the link is here and discussion about has been going on in this MetaTalk post.
Klipspringer looked at that project, decided it could use a few tweaks, like an archive, tags, and RSS feed, check it out in MeFi Projects.
Rhaomi (you know, the President of MetaFilter Interim Board) has been working with past developers and MeFi's own developer frimble to adapt the userscript MeFiQuote, to make it amazingly easier quote other users. It's live now, read the announcement post about how to turn it on!
Meanwhile, over in the future, kirkaracha continues working on the new site. It's still in the alpha stage, so not ready for full use, but it's moving forward! Follow along via the 'rebuild' tag in MetaTalk!
Finally, there's a new General Site Info FAQ entry where we aim to keep common links and info about the site. The link to it will remain in the site navigation bar at the top of every page, for easy access.
