It's [personal profile] fu's week for the update, so be kind and tell her things to talk about. ;)

The exciting new things from the code push, including Compartmentalize and Practicality?

There were lots of new styles and themes in the code push, right? Could be worth mentioning loudly, given that the lack of them is something people always complain about.

Seconded. They're so pretty! I've already fixed up my journal and two of my comms--I think this is definitely news. Maybe even as a regular thing, feature a style or a theme or a style-and-theme-maker each week? Although perhaps that's too much work or best done in a different venue. Just a thought!

All new themes from this code push are listed under the "featured" category

Any chance to pimp my German meet-up interest poll? http://yvi.dreamwidth.org/175877.html

Maybe not for the update this week, but were we ever going to change the default layout away from the blue thing?

[leaving this here for Wednesday, can move it over when there's the new one, but this is so I don't forget it]

Spam is back down! We are reviewing the lovely applications! (We are also delighting in the change to our systems that comes courtesy of [personal profile] exor674 and [personal profile] kareila, and updating our training materials to take those changes into account.)

When you get two copies of the same comment from someone you know, this is likely (uh, whatever that thing is that we know about that does it, with the servers and all) and not your friend spamming you. Reporting this as spam should not affect your friend if you did it accidentally, because spam reports are reviewed by humans, but does give the team extra unnecessary work.
