Hi all,

I fixed the relation pages problem. It turns out that the crontab
entry on the database server, responsible for querying the live OSM
database for the relation information and feeding that to the script
that generates the pages, got erased. So the relation pages get
updated once again. Yay!

Full disclosure: I also added piwik web site analytics code in the
process - I only use this to help me understand how people are using
the pages, and nobody else has access to the piwik reports. If you
want to get an idea of what these reports look like, check out
http://piwik.org/docs/piwik-tour/#piwik-overview. osm.org uses piwik
as well. I will also be installing piwik tracking on the Battle Grid
and  - soon - on the new version of MapRoulette. (Here is why piwik is
cool and Google Analytics (which provides similar functionality) is
not: https://piwik.org/privacy/)
