Maxithlon 3.0: update on the situation

(09:00 19-11-2011)
Maxithlon 3.0 has been released with some difficulties: moving the website to the new server was extremely time-intensive, resulting in a shorter time to be devoted to bug fixing.
On Friday a bug affecting youth training emerged and was readily tackled by the developers. Malfunctioning analysis was challenging and took some time also because of some contingent personal issues. Monday morning (GMT), as soon as practicable after the competitions, the youth training algorithm was restored and missed training sessions were recovered.

Other minor bugs pointed out by the community are being addressed in these days.

Additionally website performance is being improved, both on the server and client side, as workload and query usage data are collected.

Besides the announced and evident news, many small improvements came with Maxithlon 3.0 :
- "fans" parameter available in market search.
- staff members are now able to label their posts as "official" (in any federation). This could help users to understand when a post is written in behalf of the staff or as a personal opinion.
- coaches' nationality could be any among those of Maxithlon nations.
- as already stated long ago the old Maxithlon XML pages are now disabled. Further information on how to deal with the new ones are available in Maxi-XML Developer federation.

Moreover we inform you that moving to the new server allowed the developers to solve the long-standing problem regarding athlete's personal ranking update: this feature is now properly working.

Lastly we apologize for any inconveniences that occurred to our users during the transition to the new release of Maxithlon.
