little WWN problem

Hi folks,

How come "The top 5 posters of the week" are almost always screwed up:

1. 28 posts in 68K by Alexandre Julliard 
2. 35 posts in 89K by Dimitrie O. Paun 
3. 18 posts in 41K by Gerhard W. Gruber 
4. 11 posts in 91K by Mike Hearn 
5. 1 posts in 3K by Shachar Shemesh

Because I can't code to save my butt. :-) I've noticed this for awhile,
but it's so minor I have not gotten around to fixing it. Maybe I'll look
at it now that someone else has brought it up.

I would suggest alphabetical order on the names...

me!!!!!

Those of you who watch the CVS mailing list already know I fixed this
yesterday. The top 5 are now sorted correctly by number of posts. In my
previous version, I was assuming that Brian had already sorted the list,
so I was just showing the first 5 entries in the XML. Thanks to some
help on PHP.net, I found a function that can sort a multi-dimensional
array. The top 5 for Isssue 171 are now:

1. 35 posts in 89K by Dimitrie O. Paun
2. 28 posts in 68K by Alexandre Julliard
3. 18 posts in 41K by Gerhard W. Gruber
4. 13 posts in 41K by Shachar Shemesh
5. 12 posts in 27K by Sylvain Petreolle

That brings me to another issue. The lostwages website code is currently
not licensed under anything. Any thoughts?

I've not heard of licensing website code before outside of stuff like
PHPnuke, which was designed to be software first and a website second.
But if you want to license it for others, I'd suggest GPL. There's no
desperately compelling reason to make the license more liberal, as far
as I can see. Might as well get back any improvements.

Cool! :)))

I think LGPL is a good choice for many reasons, not least being consistency
with the main Wine tree.
