20:00 - Moving
I am in the midst of finalizing my new apartment and should move in within 2 weeks. This has been extremely hectic and cost me too much time to say the least. Anyhow, this means that I have packed my sources and can only do normal programming until I've finished moving in :)
19:58 - Aircraft pages I've worked a bit on the allied aircraft pages. Mostly the changes were small fixes on the "U-boats sunk by this aircraft" code (one bug was found, Halifax aircraft were also credited for boats sunk near Halifax, Nova Scotia, which was strange and has been fixed :)- Added Polish translation for book Silent Victory.

01:14 - Conning Tower front page
I rewrote the Conning Tower front page from scratch, making it easier to navigate and its look and behaviour closer to what I always wanted it to be.

I've improved this feature a bit, now you can also search for "U-99" or "U 99" type boat names (instead of only "99"). That should be a bit better.I also rewrote this section for the Conning Tower members and made the new version only point to the CT U-boat pages for better navigation and more information.

Yesterday I ran a very large diagnosis program on the entire site to do a full debug scan on every link on every page and so forth. This took some 2 hours to complete and gave me a report that I'll run over during the weekend and fix the problems it found (amazingly few given the size of this thing, over 18.000 webpages not counting the forums).
