<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hey all,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> I've run across two issues that
seem to keep recurring, both of which will cause the client to die and be
manually restarted. First one is the inkscape preferences file, which
seems to get b0rked any time inkscape crashes. Since the fix is to delete
the /home/user/.inkscape directory and restart the client, couldn't the client
simply do this at the start of every loop? That way inkscape will generate
a new preferences file every loop and should keep this from happening.
Unless this file is meaningful in some other way?</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> The second issue happened
yesterday, and has happened before. If the API goes down for longer than
10 - 15 minutes, almost all of the clients die due to failing more than 5 times
to fetch data. Could this loop be called twice, with a wait of like 30
minutes or so inbetween? So try 5 times, wait 30 mins, then try 5 more
times, then die. This would give the API more time to get back online and
keep more clients online without having to be restarted manually.</FONT></DIV>
