We just deployed a new point upgrade to rehash today to fix a bunch of small bugs that have been with us since the rehash upgrade and a few that were around longer than that. Here are the highlights:
We were able to kill off about 10 high priority bugs with this mini release. Current issues and feature requests can be found on GitHub and you can submit new issues or feature requests here if you have a GitHub account. We also welcome bugs and requests sent via email to admin@soylentnews.org or left in the comments below.
Our goals for the next major update is more of the same bug hunting and killing with a few features added here and there. Again I would like to thank you for your patience with the growing pains we have had with the 15_05 rehash upgrade. This update should bring us mostly back to where we were before in terms of broken features.

Nice work once again. Some may think it sounds bad to be back where we were, but if maintainability is increased, it's a big improvement. It's appreciated.

We do have some nice features we have added, but I was mostly taking about the few key features that broke from the upgrade itself. I believe we have them all fixed, except some long queries that only get called a few times a day. It seem like every time we do an upgrade we add a few more issues to the list with some of them stuff that was also broken before the upgrade.

The only remaining "feature" thats broken is memcache. We still have no idea why it craps itself under high load, but the new cluster arrangement seems to scale well enough that the site doesn't turn into confetti with removing it. I'm going to be writing a NC novel on what we're doing to fix it sometime this week.
Still always moving
