Are there any objections to changing the history view to work as it does on MeatBall? Example:
http://www.usemod.com/cgi-bin/mb.pl?action=history&id=CarnetWiki
(Only the revision selection via radiobuttons, not the change display, our DiffEngine is far superior to UseMod's.)
Regards,
Erik
On the fr: or en:, I type my email into the preferences box, press the "save" button, and the page reloads with the text "Your preferences have been saved." on top
but the email field is now blank.
is this behaviour or bug, and if the former, could there be a note about it -- at the moment, one gets the impression that the entered data has been lost in the ether.

Question: are you using Mozilla or Netscape 6 or kin, and told the browser to save your login & password for logging in to wikipedia?
I think this triggers a bug whereby it mistakenly believes that the preferences form is the same as the login form, and fills in the same value you used for the e-mail address -- probably blank.
In any case, for me the problem goes away if I clear the saved forms and don't let it save my login.
