Since cache listings can be viewed without being forced to create an account and log in, all the audit log would do is show listings that are viewed by logged in users.
And why do you think that information is useless?
-
The audit log only shows who has visited your cache page while it is in MO status.
Anyone who views your cache page while it is off MO, will not be recorded.
OK, then I was misinformed, sorry about that. Don't blame me though, I read this here in the forums...

Sure enough, there is WH! Thanks a ton for the tip, we just went back and changed a few of our caches to MO. Heck, they should all be if you ask me. Kudos to the good folk running gc.com.
Cheers,
Mr. Wisearse.
As far as I know, non-MO caches have audit logs, too, and you can always view the audit logs by switching the caches temporarily to MO status. That is to say, you just switch them to MO, look at the audit log and then switch them back to non-MO.
-
The second one looks like a website glitch. The logs seem to be associated with an event cache with multiple temporary caches. I guess somehow these logs got entered for the wrong cache.
The first example is an event cache, those are now "Attended" logs, not "Found" logs.

Let's see some concrete examples.

A route is a continuum of waypoints, not a set of them.
Well, in that case the problem is unsolvable because there is no storage device that can store a continuum of waypoints
As for the rest of your post, I don't see any issues. Both mathematically and computationally, the problem is trivial. You have a set of points connected with straight segments, find the subset of caches closer than a distance R from the set of these segments (and not the points of course).
-
If the user is willing to define his route himself by providing a set of waypoint along the route then there is absolutely no map of any kind needed to come up with a list of caches along that route. Therefore the high cost of some maps having certain features is by no means an excuse for not implementing the "caches along a route" feature.
-
All right. One of the most popular requests ever has been to have a list of caches along a route. I've been in discussion with a mapping provider as a possible alternative, but maps can be verrry expensive. Cost prohibitive, in fact, so I've pretty much tossed that one out as an idea.
I don't understand how an alternative mapping provider would solve the "caches along a route" problem. Essentially this problem has nothing to do with the maps.
Sure it does. How else is the site going to find caches along my route, if I don't have a way to tell the site my route? I know my mapping software on my PC has a "find along route" feature, so if the site could afford a web based version for us to use, instead of searching for POI's like mine does, it'd search for caches.
You upload or enter waypoints along the route. No map is needed. And if you want to click on the map to mark waypoints, that must also be possible with the current maps. I don't see why a different map provider would be needed.

Search for "gpxtomaplet".

I get your point, but the odds of dying in a Honda Civic hybrid if struck at interstate speeds head-on by a half-ton Chevy pickup-driving drunk approaches 100%.
Sure, but that's just one type of accident. When you combine the data for all types of accidents, it turns out that SUVs are not safer than cars, and actually they are slightly less safe. They have an advantage in crashes with smaller vehicles (usually the people in the smaller vehicle get killed), but on the other hand they roll over much more easily than cars, and rollovers are often deadly.

Take a look at the readme file in the PPC 2003 version. All the updates after 1.21 don't exist in the PPC 2002 version.
Also, if you use VC++, MFC and STL to write software for the PPC, you'll quickly find out that having the same code base for both PPC 2002 & 2003 is a real problem. The compilers are just too different.
But you don't have to use two compilers. Code compiled with eVC++ 3.0 should run both on PPC2002 and PPC2003 devices. That's why I asked what special PPC2003 feature or library are you using that is not available in PPC2002.

... Not to mention the fact that my SUV saved my life when I tangled with a drunk driver. ... I am willing to pay a few extra dollars each time at the pump. ...
You hit on the exact reason that we have two SUVs. In fact, I've been seriously considering trading my WJ in for something larger.
Just so you know: The occupant death rate in crashes per million SUVs on the road is 6 percent higher than the death rate per million cars.

This is just a cache listing site. When a member is banned, he's only banned from using this cache listing site, he's not excluded from the community. The rules of this site are the rules of this cache listing site, not the rules of the geocaching community. Let's not get ridiculous by trying to create a complex judiciary system. It's just a website. The admins should decide on a case by case basis what they do.

This thread does more than anything to help spread the rumor.
Please tell me you're not serious.
Yes, I am. The thread starter heard this rumor from his neighbor. The rest of us heard it here.

Now we'll see if the SUV nation ever learns...
"Learns"? WTF does that mean? Has it ever occured to you that SUV drivers probably don't care much about gas prices or they too would probably be driving a cheap beater?
Most of them can only afford to drive SUVs because gas has been cheap. Just look back on history: during the oil crisis in the 1970s, lots of people abandoned their pickup trucks in favor of more fuel-efficient, small cars. Then when the oil crisis ended and gas prices came down they switched back to the pickups and started to buy SUVs. Had it not been for the low gas prices, the SUV would never have become popular in the first place, and I bet that as gas prices continue to increase, more and more people will eventually get rid of their humongous gas guzzlers and buy more fuel efficient cars again.

Here's a Traditional Virtual (type: traditional, container: virtual); indeed a virtual.
A Multi Virtual (type: multi-cache, container: virtual)
An example of a multi with no container type selected, turns out to be a virtual

GEO, what feature does PPC2003 have that you utilize in GPXsonar and is not available in PPC2002? Is it not possible to compile a version that just runs on both? The executable itself should run under both OSs and work fine unless you are using some OS feature or library that is new in PPC2003.
-
Currently, Virtual is both a cache type and a container size. If the approver rejects your Virtual (as type) cache, you can just submit it as a Traditional cache in a Virtual container . You can also have a Multi cache in a Virtual container.
-
btw do we need html in the hints at all?
-
we'll be adding htmltidy to new caches soon. This will clean out the majority of malformed html entries.
While you're at it, try it on the main page of the site, too. Or just any other page on the site for that matter.

I tried a gpx file and all I got was a blank page
Indeed, it doesn't work for me either. It did work just a few days ago... probably Google changed something.
