Visualization of BRPS Code

This post is off-topic but I feel it's fun to share. The following videos are generated by Gource. They visualize how the code of BRPS were committed.

BRPS had stayed in one of my repos, the first one is a extraction version of that repo. As of April 2009, it moved into its only repo, and the second video shows the activities in its repo after.





If this kind of video catch your eyes, here are more of mine.

[Apology] Blocking by mistake

As of 1/6/2010, I modified the Blocking Policy, I added
"Failed installation/script removed blogs — Script installed without key or incomplete installation. Blogs have removed the script. (Added on 1/6/2010)"
At beginning of this year, many blogs have reach 3-month reviewing period. So, I started to review those blogs which haven't got accepted or blocked. I found out many of them are not using Key or installed the script incorrectly causing BRPS not working. I don't bother to notify the blogs owners, I don't have that free time to do so. Besides, the error message has been showing up for more than a month, how could a blogger not checking there own posts after publishing?

The second part of the addition, "Blogs have removed the script," it's also true that many blogs have removed the script after installing. I see no harm to block them since they don't use BRPS anymore, by blocking them so they won't show up after 3 month for reviewing.

But I made a huge mistake, because I check HTML source code in home page. If you install the script into your Template, not by adding a new HTML/JavaScript gadget, then the script wouldn't show up, they would only show up in a single post page.

I forgot that part, therefore I must have blocked some. By the time I found out, I had no idea how many had been blocked by that mistake.

So, if you install the code into your Template, just go ahead to ask for unblocking. I will check up as soon as possible. (I will still review first to check your content)

Sincere apology to you.
Sorry, again!
