i added some code so that every week at 0:00:00 GMT (or whatever the standard is called) it'll add a news item with some stats, i'll add more information as time goes.. hopefully this'll work.

check saturday at 4 PM Pacific time or 7 PM Eastern in the news to make sure it works.

btw, it makes the update in files.cgi, so be sure you download that again before you overwrite it Z.

and another thing we need to do is add a seperate database for download counting. it takes a lot longer for the script to open and change that big file database.... the smaller the file, the less time it takes to run the script... and since people download a lot more than any other action, we should make a new file for counting those.

I think it's cool. I'd vote for bi-weekly.

yeah, cool! i'd go with bi-weekly too. tho, weekly would make currently slow calc news more alive.

btw, maybe make the update post say "Bi-weekly updates" not "weekly updates", since they're not weekly anymore.
thx.
