OSNews, Generic OSes Today, we did a fairly major restructuring of our database categories. Before, we only added one or, in rare cases, two; this time, however, we have added three new categories, and also split one up. Read one for the how and why, and also how you can help in finding misplaced stories.

And you think finding all the correct stories happens magically?

Just doing a search for "Xfce"-- about half of them are false positives. We restrict DB magic to title search only, but that is way too narrow to cover every story.

When you run a 200000+ pageviews-a-day website, you cannot afford to play around your database.

Got it. It wasn't just a matter of consolidating categories, or switching categories. Sorry, I understand now.
