Can we have a changelog?

April 12, 2006 6:43 AM

Would it be feasible to have an admin-only message board, maybe in the sidebar? There are enough postings where #1 explains the addition or removal of a feature to merit some kind ot tracking.

I guess what I want is a Meta-Changelog (say, changes.metafilter.com?) that could just be a plain-text, "on this date there was..." sort of list.

Or, there's always the ubiquitous RSS feed.

How about it? Simple pony?

Status, maybe? Hasn't been updated for a while.

There's the public tadalist, which hasn't been updated since last May.

I think the single simplest thing to do is bookmark both mathowie and jessamyn's MetaTalk history and peruse their comments whenever you feel out of the loop.

I disappear from this site for months at a time now and I do that just to get a feel for the updates around here.

I should post more often to the status blog.

Hey, I completed about 80% of the things on that tadalist (announce is projects, recent activity is the my posts/comments page, all those bugs were fixed)
