Hi all, I'd like to change some things in the revcheck-system, but want to agree upon it first. The changes I mean are: 1.) Change the filesize-criteria for "critical" files from 10kB to 2kB Since the bananasplit, the filesizes devreased dramatically, and the chance, that a 2kB file increases to 10 kB is not very realistic. 2.) Change the age-criteria for "critical" files to the last change-date
    of the en-file
Currently, if you've synced a file >30 days ago, and today the corresp. en-file gets changed, the status becomes immediately "critical".
If we change this to the last change of en-files, we lose the status "critical" with each change (up to 9 times), but I think it's the better  choice (if I havent overseen something :)
3.) Add at least the diff of the file-sizes in the table
    "Files without Revision-comment"
That might be only a prob. for the german lang, but maybe also for the other "traditional" langs: We have 744 such files, of which the most are orphaned (and the translators most not active anymore) IMO. With this info we could easily see the biggest differences and act accordingly without a bad conscience for "stealing" files, and prevent so bugs like #19767 (de:1,22kB, en:4,52kB).
4.) To discuss: Since the banasplit, the file-sizes are very small, and changes don't really take an eternity anymore. So my question: Does anybody still need the status in the output of the list of files ("ready", "working", etc.)? That's all for now, Thomas
