News added by Kake, 13 June 2008: As requested by Ewan, I've added another new search script to RGL: the food search. It lets you find places that sell or serve ready-to-eat food — takeaways, restaurants, pubs, sandwich shops, etc — you can search by locale, postal district, or proximity to a given Tube station, and there are tickyboxes for vegetarians and vegans.

News added by Kake, 12 June 2008: As requested by DrHyde, I've added a new search script to RGL. It lets you find all pages edited by a specific person (well, by a specific username, down to capitalisation — Kake and kake are considered the same person, but Kat and katstevens aren't).

News added by Kake, 4 February 2008: I've added a statistics page which gives both real-time and "last complete month" statistics for things like number of pages, number of edits, etc. I've also fixed a fairly long-standing bug that was making things go missing from the navbar on certain pages.

News added by Kake, 21 January 2008: Earlier today I stumbled on Your London, which is a gov.uk site with interactive maps of various useful things, including public toilets and cash machines. From a quick squint it looked fairly accurate (at least in terms of the cash machines near Bermondsey Station), so every RGL page with a postcode now has links at the bottom to let you search for nearby loos and holes-in-wall (see for example Freemasons Arms, WC2E 9NG). If it turns out not to be particularly accurate after all, I'll remove the links - so please let me know if you have any trouble with it.

News added by bob, 7 January 2008: New featured article: Charles Lamb, N1 8DE.
