Hi, everyone. If you're like me, and I know I am, you may have heard from Dreamwidth today...

After last week's announcement that community importing was available, mark spent a few days coding his fingers off to improve and optimize the importer to better handle larger import jobs. Thanks to his tireless work, we've been able to lift one of the restrictions we had to place on community import: communities that have over 100,000 comments can now be imported.

If your community has more than a few hundred thousand comments, the comment import may still fail. We're working with the admins of a very large community to work out the last of the problems. We're asking for now that if your community has more than 500,000 comments, please hold off on doing an import for another week or so -- the code won't enforce the limits anymore, but it will definitely make everybody's lives easier.

Rest assured, we're keeping on top of this!

that icon nearly made water come out of my nose.

:D thanks.

It's actually completely out of context: he was just looking up and speaking at the same time as I hit pause.

I wonder if it wouldn't be a bad idea to try a test run of play, say a week, when the doors open over at DW? This way we can test the waters and those players who might be hesitant to switch can get a feel of the interface before we close the doors on LJ.

Just a thought. I for one am ready for DW.
