Try the bareimg tag instead.

Nao, all I was getting at is that I'm not bothered by trying to localise the names of the holidays themselves - Christmas is the same in most languages, and stuff like Cinco de Mayo, is written and referred to as in Spanish, even in non Spanish speaking communities.
Producing packages of different dates would be good though.

Then encourage use of other solutions and mash it with a hammer until you feel better :)

Well, I'm 45 minutes from our great metropolis, and I'm not sure whether that's a good or bad thing. Certainly, it used to suck when commuting there to be in work by 8am...
I might be surprised; I'll give it an honest go when I make it over there sometime... ;)

Yes, we do use it as an excuse to get very drunk, don't we?[1] I don't personally, don't really drink, and normally my other half is working and isn't able to go for a drink at lunchtime - and isn't really in the mood for a lot of drinking after work.
One of these days though, we're going to have to hop on a ferry to Eire and have a drink with the natives, so to speak; though I doubt I'll be supping a pint of the black stuff, nor play on that blasted harp ;) I don't really like Guinness...

I've used addLoadEvent before but now that I think about it, it'd probably be OK with just the add_js stuff.
Put it this way, is there a compelling reason to keep it as it is? Does it perform a task that cannot be accomplished in another way? It sounds to me is though there is no task that it does that can't be done another way.

It is an Irish thing (St Patrick being the patron saint of Ireland) but the British and Americans seem to celebrate it.
What would be good is providing a package of some description that supplies all the relevant cultural dates, but making them translated doesn't seem to be a big deal to me, more importantly to get the dates provided for different groups.

« on August 5th, 2011, 11:21 AM »but it is my understanding that the CLA covers only contributions made knowingly and on purpose for the benefit of the project
I'd say anyone who has contributed to the community discussions, perhaps in thousands of support posts, knowingly doing that to help the users, would be / is an ass if they demand those posts removed later... Doing so does nothing but hurt the users.
Also please note, when I started removing my posts, one by one, I started with the oldest first, i.e. the ones least likely to be useful going forward.

« on August 5th, 2011, 10:45 AM »Yeah, I remember all of that...
But these discussions came into a dead-end.
I don't see WHERE exactly he put much effort into helping us. To me, it seems like he never planned to help, and decided to hide behind the 'SMF team majority' crap to justify not helping.
Which reminds me that we should discuss this matter for Wedge Media... I could care less about these links really. But were I to provide them as mods, hmm... That would overwrite the custom list or something.
I won't get into the full debate on that one, either.
On the subject of the sitelist, I'm inclined to agree with you; while it could be folded into the scheduled tasks, it seems like it should just be removed.
SMF flames are just an aside for me, eh
I can reply in plenty of places -- Bryan's place, SMF-friends, etc...
Nope. SMF Gallery has been around from 2006 to 2008 without any competition (except external bridges), it already had both free and paid versions, the addition of SMG didn't change that.
Anyway---- SMG was out, and quickly surpassed the 'quality' level of SMF Gallery Pro -- we saved SMF users a grand total of $80 by giving them an alternative to that piece of crap
That's one of the major strengths of SMF, and they're not willing to lose it. Otherwise I'd have been perm-banned all the same...
Because it raises awereness of Wedge.
What do you think! They can keep Aeva Media as long as they also give me free reigns to advertise its upcoming upgrade. What I've been doing on that page is totally legal, heck. *AND* it breaks absolutely none of their Core Values (to which they could pretend I'm tied to, even though I never was made an official teamie), and none of their written rules.
What you've been doing isn't "totally legal" - that's the point. It's fallen foul of several of the unwritten laws of SMF, for which the penalty is censure. Just because it doesn't fall foul of their published and public laws, doesn't mean it is legal, you know how good they are at reinventing and reinterpreting their own rules.
They can own my posts written on the dev boards, my posts on the beta page, all of my posts related to SMF's development, no problem. But posts related to Aeva Media and stuff? No thanks. I own them. And if I ever take down AeMe from their page, I don't see why these posts should remain online.
I have no ability to edit or delete any of my own posts. I can't reply to PMs either, and I can't even read the PMs I sent in the past... (Because of a beautiful SMF bug that I fixed in Wedge. Uh.)

Not really nice on their part - he's been there since RC5 for definite and probably even RC4 before that, as in he was added when it was all working out, and there would have been an outcry had he been removed.
