User blog:DaNASCAT/Technical Update: May 10, 2011

As we mentioned in our post last week, this week our Engineering team is having their annual "all-hands" meetup. During the meetup the team will collaborate on special projects, share best practices, and explore new techniques. In order to stay on schedule for their meetup, our Engineering Team will not be pushing out a new code this week. The next scheduled release will the following week on Wednesday, May 18th. As usual, if a critical bug pops anytime between now and then, it will be fixed and released as soon as possible.

In the interim, there are a few notable bugs that have appeared in the last week that we are aware of:


 * Gallery logic is slightly deforming borders, boxes, and thumbs for images with unusual sizing (i.e. sizing an image at 140px or 223px vs. a the "typical" 150px or 200px).
 * Our CSS/JS minimization system is not generating some CSS/JS files in the timeliest manner.
 * The video embed tool is not able to upload videos from some less-known video hosts such as Vimeo.
