So...
I~1m rewriting SoCoder from scratch.
The whole Everything, top to bottom.

I figure the damn server~1s bound to jump to PHP7 at some point, and when it does our favourite decade-old site gets it~1s arse kicked by the lack of upgrading I~1ve done over the years. In particular all my sql queries get completely fudged.

Add to that the fact that it allows for some rethinking of the way certain elements work, like how it~1d be nice to be able to add new languages to showcases, and how realistically I should~1ve added "merge topic" and other admin features a long long time ago...

There~1s a lot of stuff wrong with SoCoder.
There~1s a lot of stuff right with it, too, though, and I~1ll be carrying over a large number of those.
For now, there~1s an awful lot to work at.

          socoder.net/s2.php

Why not hop along to the new WIP site, to see how broken it currently is!!
ETA : Not soon, but certainly not too far away.
