[07:58] So that's a whole other thing. [09:15] * db48x sighs [09:15] I thought I had it that time [09:16] time to sleep, I think [16:37] The machines are falling fast now. [16:37] 339 rows left in the QA sheet, and I just ran fixes on many for the testers to re-try. [16:43] *** wdna has joined #jsmess [17:41] *** godane has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 492 seconds) [17:52] QA Sheet down to 289 items.
