[Fwd: Welcome to our three new board members]

Voor wie het nog niet wist;

Oscar, ja, onze Oscar, is "Board member" van de Wikimedia Foundation
geworden.

Proficiat Oscar.

Kate en Jan-Bart van Kennisnet ook.

Groet,
Walter

PS: het zijn steward verkiezingen en Effe doet ook mee. Niet dat hij ze
nodig heeft maar ik weet uit persoonlijke ervaring dat het zeer leuk is
om enorm veel stemmen te krijgen. (de anderen verdienen ook aandacht
natuurlijk)

New in the Pywikipediabot framework

There is a new version available for download of the Python Wikipediabot
framework. I would advise most people using the framework on Wikimedia wikis
(who does not get it through CVS) to update, because the old version will
not be able to read the allpages special page correctly. Also, those who use
it on a Windows system are advised to download version 2.5 of Python (if
they are still using an older version), because colours are now working for
Windows, but only under Python 2.5. Downloading 2.5 is also advised for
anyone (on any system) who wants to use xml dumps with the bot.

To save space, the current distribution does not include the wordlists,
because they are very large files. Those who want to use
spellcheck.pyshould download them from
http://pywikipediabot.cvs.sourceforge.net/pywikipediabot/pywikipedia/spelling/separately.
Wordlists exist for Dutch and English; wordlists in other
languages are still welcome.

Recent changes in the bot (from the last month, only the most important are
given:

==new bots==
* commonslink.py. This searches for a page with the same name in commons,
and links to it. Currently only working on English and Portuguese Wikipedias
* delete.py. Deletes a group of pages.
==important bugfixes==
* Because of some changes in the wikimedia code, the bot wasn't able to read
[[Special:Allpages]] any more.
* Bot messed up categories or interwikis within <noinclude> tags (the > of
the noinclude was moved to after the categories/interwikis)
==user interface==
* More bots use colour highlighting
