there is a weird squid setting that is preventing refreshes of this page

It won't update until the discussion page is edited... this is getting tedious...

I don't really understand the problem being described. Can you expand on what is meant by "weird squid setting"? Do you think it may be due to page protection? cjl 03:46, 23 January 2009 (UTC)

Sorry about being terse. What is happening is that changes to the page can only be made by logged-in users--which for this page is probably the right choice--but the changes are not pushed out to non-logged-in users until the discussion page has been changed... --Walter 04:07, 23 January 2009 (UTC)

Pure speculation on my part, but I wonder if one of the relatively recent changes described here could have introduced that particular flavor of hinkiness, I'll shoot a note to the wiki-gang list to see if someone can investigate. cjl 06:58, 23 January 2009 (UTC)

If MW knew more about the cache settings, it could explicitly ask for a cache flush. As it is, that's not so easy. We could exempt certain pages from caching, however. SJ

Let me know if and when the cache settings are rejiggered. In the meanwhile, I'll keep adding comments to the discussion page in order to push my changes. --Walter 12:42, 23 January 2009 (UTC)

modifying .xo files

Hello,

How I can edit *.xo file or create new *.xo file, what soft I have to use?

Thanks

The .xo bundles are zip files that are unzipped into ~/Activities. You can modify the contents of anything in the subdirectory created for the project and if you want to make a new .xo bundle incorporating your changes, run this script:

python setup.py dist_xo

The new bundle will be placed in the dist subdirectory, e.g.,

/home/olpc/Activities/YOUR_ACTIVITY/dist/your_activity-N.xo
