New backend now fully rolled out
The new faster, safer sandbox that powers ScraperWiki is now fully rolled out to all users.
You should find running and developing scrapers and views faster than before, and that you’re using much more recent versions of Ruby, Python and associated libraries.
Thank you to everyone, and there were lots of you, who helped us beta test it!
Now, Ross and Julian are fighting for the right to delete all the old code we don’t need any more…
The decision for the right to delete old code should ideally be based on the winner who performs the fastest average typing speed within 1 min. (in Assembly Language) 😉
