Bug in the Wiki ?

[Tom Wickline]

Hello,

If a page on the Wiki gets more than 8500 hits in a single day the hit
counter rolls over.

Odd. Not sure it does, but it may. Anyway, I'll be upgrading the
Wiki to the new MoinMoin 1.5 soon (I'm waiting a bit for the dust
to settle, it's just been released).

day or so :-)

That looks like a rollover on 020000 (octal). A 14 bit counter?! Did someone 
port the stats parser to some 40+ year old mainframe?

Weird stuff :)
