Well, I'm from Sheffield, in the middle of the UK, I've been up to Edinburgh
two weeks running for Monday/Tuesday. Both weeks the weather in Edinburgh
has been warm (compared to Sheffield) and sunny. In Sheffield it's been
cold, gray and wet. But in the summer, it was the other way round. Plus my
daughter was two weeks old so it really really sucked being up there.

I subscribe to cvs mails and do an update to my local copy, rsynch to my
dev.fuckingbrit.com copy, check it all works on 'live' then promote to www
when there is anything interesting in there. So last night ;-)

I'm betting that's what I've missed!

I've added a new gl_feature, story.ping, I've added that to gl_access with
grp_id 3 and the right feature id. Checking the Story Admin group I get:

(story.ping)

Listed. My user account is a Story Admin account (checked the security
group). But I still don't get it, so I've probably not fully synched
something over. I'll have to have a better look tonight. It works on dev. So
I must have missed something.

Well, blogger/livejournal doesn't import their email address either. I'll
take a look through the code and see where that could be a problem.
